Pricing of the new Chevy Trailblazer is expected to start under $23,000 and arrives early 2020

Chevrolet hasn't revealed much to the public since debuting the Trailblazer at Auto Shanghai back in April 2019, only that its part of "the next chapter of Chevrolet SUV design." An announcement released weeks later did confirm availability of a U.S.-spec and mentioned it will be "positioned between the Trax and Equinox."

With MSRP of the 2020 Trax from $21,300 and 2020 Equinox from $23,800, there isn't much room for base Trailblazer pricing to move, giving us a clear idea of what to expect. Upon our closer analysis of the price divide between Chevrolet models, a starting MSRP around the mid-$22,000 range seems very likely.

While pricing starts out competitive for what the Trailblazer is, a "baby Blazer," the confirmed RS trim should begin north of $30,000 and Premier above that once announced. Being part of "the next chapter of Chevrolet SUV design" will mean better standard features like active safety among many others, so even lower trims should feel well equipped.

Sure seems like Chevy is trying to kill off the Trax. Why buy it when this goes for around $1k more?

UPDATE:

This report from carbuzz says a redesigned Trax that takes after the Blazer is in the works:

"It really boils down to this: GM does not GMC to sell a premium subcompact crossover. The Encore does that job just fine. Furthermore, a completely redesigned Chevy Trax is due to arrive next year as a 2021 model and like the new Blazer, it’s expected to go even further upmarket. Same deal for the next Encore. There’s also the all-new 2020 Chevy Trailblazer and Encore GX. Although slightly larger than both the regular Encore and Trax, both are aimed at a similar type of buyer. The last thing GM needs is overcrowding in this particular segment or any segment for that matter."

"begin north of $30,000" is an over estimate

If this really is the Renegade rival as everyone is saying, then Chevrolet has no business pricing a top spec Trailblazer beyond $29,000.

Its not that much more.
Also the Renegade came out a long time ago, Chevy can easily justify the price by including more features which they easily can.

We now have a better idea for how much the Trailblazer will cost since it's now on sale in China. It's being sold from RMB 139,900 to RMB 179,900, which is roughly $19,570 to $25,166 USD.

That's about where the Jeep Renegade is. Chevy won't veer off much from its starting price. As you option it out, that could change.

Lets see how close the official American pricing is compared to the Chinese. I could see it starting for a bit more over here.

Like I said, it won't veer much and thus won't matter... at least with starting prices.
Where the question of price really comes in is when you start adding stuff.
