2007 Chevy TrailBlazer / TrailBlazer SS TrailBlazer SS Headlines Chevy's '07 Midsize SUV Lineup
TrailBlazer SS returns to lead Chevy's midsize SUV lineup for 2007, delivering sports car performance combined with the functionality expected of a utility vehicle. For '07, the SS becomes a distinct model and is available in two equipment packages: 1SS and 3SS.
TrailBlazer SS has unique exterior styling and specific interior appointments, including prominent 20-inch flangeless wheels. Power comes from a Corvette-derived LS2 6.0L V-8, which produces 395 horsepower (295 kW) and 400 lb.-ft. of torque (542 Nm) - enabling the powerful SUV to reach 60 mph in 5.7 seconds. A performance suspension with lowered ride height also is part of the package. The TrailBlazer SS is available in two-wheel drive and all-wheel drive configurations.
Chevy TrailBlazer - New for 2007
- Three new exterior colors: Moondust Metallic, Imperial Blue and Graphite Metallic - Tire pressure monitor standard on all models - OnStar Gen 7 - Regulated voltage control - TrailBlazer SS becomes separate model; available in 1SS and 3SS equipment packages
The rest of the TrailBlazer lineup for 2007 is marked by these updates:
- Tire pressure monitoring system standard on all models - Regulated voltage control, which enhances fuel economy - OnStar Gen 7 - Three new exterior colors: Moondust Metallic, Imperial Blue and Graphite Metallic
GM's tire pressure monitoring system was previously available only on the TrailBlazer SS; its inclusion as standard equipment in all models enhances TrailBlazer's safety story. TrailBlazer also is an efficient midsize SUV: GM's fuel-saving Active Fuel Management technology is standard with the available Vortec 5.3L V-8 engine. It is rated at 302 horsepower (225 kW) and 330 lb.-ft. of torque (447 Nm)**; Active Fuel Management regulates between eight- and four-cylinder power to produce up to 5 percent improved fuel economy in certain light-load driving conditions.
The class-leading standard engine in TrailBlazer continues to be the award-winning Vortec 4.2L I-6, which produces 291 horsepower (217 kW) and 277 lb.-ft. of torque (375 Nm).* The Hydra-Matic 4L60 electronically controlled four-speed automatic transmission is matched with both the Vortec 4.2L and Vortec 5.3L engines. The TrailBlazer SS's transmission is the new, heavy-duty Hydra-Matic 4L70 four-speed automatic.
Regulated voltage control is new for the Vortec 4.2L and Vortec 5.3L engines. It enhances fuel economy by reducing the load on the engine generated by the alternator.
Safety details
StabiliTrak is standard on all models. StabiliTrak helps drivers maintain control during sudden maneuvers or in low traction conditions by using a comprehensive series of sensors to measure acceleration, deceleration, steering angle and yaw rate.
