Cabin
There’s much within the Trailblazer that sets it a level above the Kicks. For instance, while you can enjoy the tunes provided by the Nissan’s standard 4-speaker setup, you will likely be more entertained by the Trailblazer’s standard 6-speaker sound system with an amplifier. This comes easier to access as well, since the Chevrolet model boasts a standard 11-inch touchscreen display. Meanwhile, you may find some difficulty with the Kicks’ standard 7-inch variant. If you’re looking for warmth, you’ll likely be elated to hear that both SUVs bring available heated front chairs and steering wheels to the table.
Outer Shell
The 2025 Chevrolet Trailblazer is sure to leave an indelible mark on the minds of those who witness it. For instance, it brings standard LED headlights that can pierce through veils of darkness, and is something the Nissan Kicks shares. They also both have optional sunroofs, although the Chevrolet comes with a panoramic iteration for a greater feeling of openness. The Kicks also boasts a standard set of 16-inch wheels, while the Trailblazer ups the ante with standard 17-inch components. The latter also comes with a standard solar absorbing windshield so that the interior doesn’t heat up as much when the vehicle is left in the sun at Cress Creek Country Club. This is something the Kicks finds itself completely void of.
Capabilities
If you wish to make spirited trips down Highway 50, then you’ll want to take to the helm of the Trailblazer. That’s because its standard 1.3L turbocharged 3-cylinder engine outputs a confident 155 horsepower and 174 lb.-ft. of torque. The Nissan Kicks simply can’t keep up with its standard 2.0L 4-cylinder powertrain, which only offers 141 horsepower and140 lb.-ft. of torque. You can also find a greater level of traction with the Trailblazer, as its standard AWD system offers better handling than the Kicks’ standard FWD configuration. You’ll find this sentiment continues with the Nissan model’s standard Xtronic Continuously Variable Transmission, as it is simply outpaced by the Chevrolet’s 9-speed automatic transmission. Though, you’ll find that they are roughly similar in efficiency. The Chevrolet brings a 29/33 MPG city/hwy1 fuel economy rating, while the Nissan allows for a 28/35 MPG city/hwy EPA-estimated rating2.
