Performance 

The standard turbocharged 1.3L four-cylinder engine that the 2023 Jeep Renegade comes equipped with outperforms either of the two engine options found in the 2023 Chevy Trailblazer. Drivers of a Renegade have access to 177 horsepower, while the standard 1.2L turbocharged engine in the Trailblazer only offers 137 horsepower. Even an upgrade to a 1.3L turbocharged engine in the Chevy only results in 155 horsepower. Transmissions are also vastly different, with a nine-speed automatic in the Renegade and a Continuously Variable Transmission in the Trailblazer. When it comes to being a capable adventurer, every Renegade boasts the excellent Jeep 4x4 drivetrain for impeccable handling precision. Meanwhile, the Trailblazer comes with standard FWD and has AWD available.  

Interior Features

However, the Renegade provides an 8.4-inch touchscreen to access everything, while the Trailblazer comes with a standard seven-inch display. Various devices can connect to multimedia systems or the Internet through mediums such as an integrated Wi-Fi® hotspot or applications such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The Jeep also comes with standard integrated navigation which is only available on select upper-level trims of the Chevrolet.  

Safety Features 

A major safety advantage for the 2023 Jeep Renegade is its standard 4x4 drivetrain providing reliable handling performance on any driving surface mid-Michigan can throw the driver’s way. Compared to the standard FWD platform on the Trailblazer, drivers of the Jeep can be much more confident all year long. Both SUVs do come with standard driver-assistance features that thrive in the hectic everyday traffic that mid-Michigan can often bring. These include Automatic Emergency Braking and Forward Collision Warning for excellent coverage on the road in front of the vehicles.
