Let’s take a closer look at one of its mid-level models in this 2025 Chevy Blazer RS trim overview.
Key Takeaways
What Makes the Blazer RS Special?
The 2025 Chevy Blazer RS is where performance and style come together. It’s the sportier trim in the lineup, with distinctive RS elements, like a signature grille and sleek black bowtie emblems. You’ll also get bold 20-inch Technical Gray aluminum wheels that give it a more aggressive look without going over the top.
Inside, the RS trim features unique premium touches, like the Chevrolet Infotainment 3 Premium system with built-in Navigation. There’s also an 8-inch diagonal color Driver Information Center that puts all the key info front and center, and you get a wireless charging pad to keep your devices powered without all the cord mess.
Comfort and sound are dialed in too, thanks to a Bose premium 8-speaker audio system and ambient interior lighting that gives the cabin a refined feel. The heated steering wheel is a nice bonus, and you’ll appreciate the convenience of the Hands-Free Gesture liftgate when your hands are full. It also includes bright front sill plates and all the great features from the 3LT trim.
The Chevy Blazer RS has a current starting price of $44,495,
2025 Chevy Blazer RS Engine Options, Performance, and Fuel Efficiency
You have two options for engines in your Chevy Blazer:
- A standard 228-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder generating 258 pound-feet of torque; and,
- A 308 hp 3.6-liter V-6 cranking out 270 pound-feet of torque (this choice is optional to the 3LT and Premier trims and standard to the RS trim)
No matter your choice, Blazer engines are mated with a nine-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive as standard, with optional all-wheel drive. The Blazer has a maximum capacity of 4,500 pounds (on the V-6 engine).
The Blazer does well in fuel efficiency—it gets 22 mpg/city, 29 mpg/highway, and 25 mpg combined.
Safety Features in the Chevy Blazer RS
Every RS comes with a solid lineup of standard driver-assist features, so you’re not stuck paying extra just to get the basics. You’ll get things like forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, and even automatic high beams right out of the gate.
If you want more advanced tech, upper trims add extras like blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive cruise control. The top trims really load it up. And if you’re the kind of person who checks safety scores before buying, you can see how the Blazer performs over at the NHTSA and IIHS websites.
