2005 BLAZER – DURABILITY AND DEPENDABILITY AMONG COMPACT SUVS
Blazer has earned a strong reputation both within the Chevy truck line and among all compact sport-utility vehicles as being durable, dependable and one of the best values in the segment.
For 2005, Blazer is offered to retail customers as a two-door model only. Four-door Blazer models will be produced for fleet sales only, as Chevrolet introduces the all-new Equinox compact SUV to the retail market.
Two-door Blazers are offered in three versions: a base model, the popular low-stance sporty Xtreme, and the higher-stance ZR2 for serious off-road enthusiasts. With its capable and durable Vortec 4300 4.3L V-6 engine, two transmission choices and available Autotrac four-wheel-drive system on 4x4 models, Blazer can be equipped to meet a wide range of driver needs.
Tried-and-true SUV
Blazer is available as a two-door with two- and four-wheel-drive configurations. All models can be ordered with a convenience group that includes cruise control, tilt steering, power door locks and windows, and electric remote-heated exterior mirrors. Blazer has generous room for both passengers and cargo. With the rear seat up, Blazer has almost 30 cubic feet (845L) of cargo room. Folding the rear seat forward opens up almost 61 cubic feet (1,717L) of capacity.
Blazer Xtreme
Blazer Xtreme blends bold exterior styling with a special Sport Suspension for a sporty appearance and responsive handling. Blazer Xtreme features:
Z87 Sport Suspension
P235/60R16 Eagle LS low-profile tires
Xtreme deep-dish, five-spoke aluminum wheels
Lower front fascia with fog lamps
Lower bodyside cladding and large wheel flares
Body-colored grille, bumpers, lower cladding and flares
Special 'Xtreme' badging
Deep-tint windows
Leather-wrapped steering wheel
Heavy-duty, weight-distributing platform hitch; maximum towing capacity with manual or automatic transmission is 2,000 pounds (900 kg)
Available sunroof
Full range of audio systems available, including an in-dash, six-disc CD changer
Available stripe or the new Flame/Heat decal packages
Blazer ZR2
The off-road ZR2 wide-stance package is available in two- and four-wheel-drive versions of the two-door Blazer for enhanced off-road capability as well as excellent on-road performance. Features include:
46-mm Bilstein pressurized shocks
3.9-inch-wider tread in front and rear
P265/R75R15 on-/off-road steel-belted radial blackwall tires
Specific strengthened front differential gears and drive axles
Specific rear axle with an 8.5-inch ring gear
Larger rear wheel bearings
Longer, larger diameter axle shafts
A specifically tuned rear suspension with revised rear multileaf springs
Rear axle track bar
Skid plate package
Locking rear differential
Large front and rear wheel flares
The two-wheel-drive version of the Blazer ZR2 also includes brush guards and tubular side steps.
Plenty of power
Blazer's highly capable performance comes from its standard Vortec 4300 SFI V-6 engine that generates 190 horsepower (142 kw) and 250 lb.-ft. (339 Nm) of torque. To meet low-emission requirements in various states, a National Low Emission Vehicle (NLEV) system is also available on Blazer.
Transmission choices include a standard five-speed manual or optional four-speed electronic automatic. An available Autotrac four-wheel-drive system automatically shifts power to all four wheels.
Safe and secure
In addition to its standard anti-lock brake system and front-passenger air bags, Blazer features an optional programmable auto door lock/unlock feature that enables customers to set the locking and unlocking functions to their preferences. On- or off-road, Chevy Blazer is a confident performer, thanks to its standard Z85 sporty/firm suspension, which accommodates a variety of driving needs.Source - GM Corporation
