Choosing an SUV in today’s day and age is no simple task – there are dozens of these popular vehicles to choose from, like the 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander and the 2022 Chevrolet Trailblazer. While each have similarities, their differences may break the tie between these competing SUVs. Which should Bradenton drivers choose? Compare the key features of the Outlander and Trailblazer to find out.
Not only is the 2022 Outlander larger inside than the Trailblazer, but it is also better equipped in the base trim and beyond. The Outlander comes standard with a larger touchscreen, remote keyless entry, push-button start, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a power-adjustable driver’s seat – none of these features are standard in the Trailblazer. In addition to offering more headspace, legroom, and larger seats in every row, the Outlander also has significantly more space than the Trailblazer. Behind the second row, there is 33.5 cubic-feet of space in the Outlander versus just 25.3 cubic-feet in the Trailblazer. Folding the second row offers 79.7 cubic-feet in the Mitsubishi but just 54.4 cubic-feet in the Chevy for an even more dramatic difference. The Outlander is also the only of these two competitors to offer a third row of seats.
The 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander comes standard with a 2.5-liter engine that makes 181 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque while the 2022 Trailblazer has a 1.2-liter standard engine that makes just 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque. Even if you upgrade to the Trailblazer’s turbocharged engine, you’ll only see a boost to 155 horsepower and 174 lb-ft of torque, the Trailblazer is the underpowered SUV no matter which way it is equipped, largely because it has just three cylinders in the engine. Both SUVs are available with all-wheel drive.
Many cars these days come standard with a long list of driver assistance features – like the 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander, which comes with 10 driver assistance features in lower trims. The 2022 Chevy Trailblazer, on the other hand, has just six standard driver assistance features in the base trims. If you’re searching for a head-up display to help keep your attention focused on the road and your key driving information, you’ll want to opt for the 2022 Outlander as a head-up display is not available in the 2022 Trailblazer.
