Chevrolet India to Launch Trailblazer SUV in 2WD Variant Only: Report - International Business Times, India Edition

While Chevrolet is getting ready to launch the Trailblazer SUV in India in October, a report from AutocarIndia indicates that the SUV will be sold only in two-wheel-drive (2WD) format. However, Chevrolet's decision to bring out only a 2WD variant seems to be logical as most of the SUV buyers of this segment hardly take their vehicles off-road. The India spec Trailblazer will get Hill Start Assist, Hill-Descent Control and will also have the capability to wade through 800mm of water, which are good enough for regular off-roaders. The SUV will be powered by a second-generation 2. 8-litre Duramax four-cylinder turbo-diesel engine that develops 197bhp of power at 3,600rpm and 500Nm of torque at 2,000rpm mated to a six-speed manual gearbox or a segment-first six-speed... This also means that the Trailblazer will be the most powerful vehicle in its segment when launched. Source: www.ibtimes.co.in
