New 2022 Chevy Blazer SS Horsepower, Pricing

New 2022 Chevy Blazer SS Horsepower, Pricing  – The new Chevrolet Blazer is a very sporty SUV thanks to its Camaro-inspired style, so it must have been only a matter of time before Chevrolet launched a performance-focused version.

With the rise of performance SUVs such as the Ford Edge ST and Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk, it makes sense for Chevrolet to cash in on this growing segment. Chevrolet has been silent about Blazer’s performance-focused performance, but now the automaker has confirmed the Blazer SS will make its world debut at the New York Auto Show on April 17.

Just to repeat, making our Chevy Blazer SS is not a prelude to the production model. Instead, we just wanted to put it together for fun, just to see what such a thing would look like.

Unfortunately, the Blazer SS will not use the 6.2-liter V8 Camaro with 455 hp. Instead, it will get the same 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 found in the Cadillac CT6, which produces 404 hp and 400 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 10-speed automatic.

That makes it more powerful than the Edge ST, but still not suitable for the 700-hp Jeep Trackhawk. 0-62 mph takes 5.3 seconds before the SS Blazers stand out at 155 mph. All-wheel drive certainly comes as standard for handling all that extra muscle.

The first thing to take ‘yes maybe is a bigger and wider package of crossover wheels and tires. Paired with a lower suspension, our hypothetical Chevy Blazer SS has the right aggressive attitude to help it look like part of the player.

We also added a new front grille treatment, which includes a black finish for mesh intake and a top bar. The central Bow Tie badge also finished in black, while dark coloring extends to the lower bumper to the prominent lower chin spoiler.

Chevrolet hasn’t released a high-performance Blazer SS image yet, but previous rendering images gave us a good idea of what it looks like. An aero-enhanced body, black trim, and larger 21-inch wheels give the SUV a more ruthless look. The SS blazer has also lowered the suspension to provide more sportsmanlike handling and beefier brakes to improve high-performance crossover downtime.

Details of the price and launch date will be announced at the 2019 New York Auto Show but expect Chevrolet to charge a premium fee over the standard Blazer for additional performance, which starts at $28,800.

On the outer edge of the bumper, we replaced the headlights with air intakes. Thus, the headlights need to be moved to the thin lighting signature where the DLR is on the standard model, which may be less than ideal with respect to forward-facing lighting, but still looks good from an aesthetic point of view.

The back also gets some new touches, such as quad exhaust tips. Finally, a number of SS badges can be found around the body.

As for motivation, we think the twin-turbocharged 3.0L V6 engine will fit the bill, with low or LGY on deck. As a reminder, the twin-turbo 3.0L V6 LGW is equipped with a Cadillac CT6, where it produces 404 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque, while the twin-turbo 3.0L V6 LGY is equipped in a Cadillac CT5, where it produces 335 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque.
