Chevrolet Trailblazer vs Ford Endeavour Comparison

By Rajkamal

The SUV segment is growing at a good pace in India, which has opened doors to bigger engines as well. One of the most anticipated launches this year was the Chevrolet Trailblazer, which is currently sitting at the top of the SUV range (excluding luxury SUVs).

While it enjoys being at the top currently, there is another American competitor that will make an entry into the Indian market soon, the Ford Endeavour, that could pose a threat to the Trailblazer. So how does the Trailblazer compare to the Ford Endeavour, which is a well known name in the Indian market? Let's compare the pricing, specification, features, and safety of these two SUVs and find out which is better.

Pricing

  • Chevrolet Trailblazer: Rs. 26.40 lakh
  • Ford Endeavour: Rs. 23.63 lakh

Note: Prices are ex-showroom values (Delhi)

Design

The Chevrolet Trailblazer features a bold, boxy, typical American SUV stance. It has sharp lines and flared arches, that give the SUV a great road presence. The overall design of the SUV is bold and muscular, which is quite common, and needed for an SUV design.

The Ford Endeavour on the other hand has shed it old school boxy design to take up a modern look. The Endeavour too, sports a bold muscular look, but in a very refreshing way, making the SUV look much more sporty, in a modern way.

Verdict

Both, the Trailblazer and the Endeavour are very equally matched. Both offer great space, power, road presence, ground clearance, and features needed to tackle any road condition. But take a minute and think, what makes an SUV a SUV? The four-wheel drive system. That is what clears the Endeavour of that little obstacle the Trailblazer is struggling with. So, if you are looking for a capable SUV, the Endeavour is what we suggest.
