Performance and Flexibility

When it comes to engine options, the more you have, the more you can customize your SUV to your specific needs.

The Ford Bronco offers two engine options: a 2.3L EcoBoost® engine with 270 horsepower and the available 2.7L EcoBoost® engine.

The Chevy Blazer has three engine options: the standard ECOTEC® 2.5L, available 2.0L Turbo engine, and the available 3.6L V6 engine with 308 horsepower. Each offers plenty of power and an EPA-estimated 27 or 29 highway MPG.

If you’re looking to tow something for a fun weekend trip, the Chevy Blazer has a maximum towing capacity of 4,500 pounds. The Bronco only has a maximum towing capacity of 3,500 pounds.

Technology Features

Each SUV has a ton of tech to enjoy while you drive. Both the Blazer and the Bronco have standard infotainment systems with 8-inch touchscreens and features like Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™, Bluetooth capability®, and voice command. You can upgrade the system to include in-vehicle navigation for both SUVs.

The Blazer has a few additional features that make it outshine the Bronco. One of these features is the available Rear Camera Mirror. The camera gives you an unobstructed view behind your vehicle and feeds into your rearview mirror, allowing you to switch between the traditional rearview and the camera feed.

Safety and Driver-Assist Features

To keep you and your passengers safe while you’re on the road, the Blazer and the Bronco have driver-assist and safety technology features. These features aid your driving and keep an eye on the road.

Both SUVs have similar features, including one called Forward Collision Alert with Automatic Emergency Braking. These two systems are working together to help alert you to a potential frontal collision so you can take steps to reduce the severity of the accident and help you brake if you don’t react in time.

Another feature both have in common is the High Beam Assist feature. This system automatically turns on high beams when it gets dark enough. Then it turns the high beams on and off depending on traffic conditions.

Where the Blazer pulls away from the Bronco is with the standard Teen Driver feature. This feature is designed to help you improve your teen’s driving habits by offering a vehicle report card to help improve driving skills. You can even turn off or on certain features of the Blazer when your teen drives.
