Those searching for an adventurous SUV with the latest technology tend to seek out the age-old competition of Chevy vs. Ford. With vast improvements in both their lineups over the years, the groundbreaking innovations have taken North Charleston by storm. Nowhere is this friendly rivalry more apparent than the SUV classes, where safety features, interior comfort, performance, and value are always pushing their limits. Explore these categories below in the 2021 Chevy Trailblazer vs. 2020 Ford Explorer matchup with Rick Hendrick Chevrolet to find which suits your driving style.

Chevy Trailblazer vs. Ford Explorer: Technology and Features

Perhaps the largest divide in the new Chevy Trailblazer vs. Ford Explorer comparison is the disparity in the standard tech and interior features. Both offer an impressive array of standard and available options to keep you and your passengers alert, comfortable, and entertained through every mile around Mount Pleasant. Take a look at the standard options offered by the 2021 Trailblazer:

  • Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning
  • Rear vision camera
  • Tire pressure monitoring system
  • Front Pedestrian Braking
  • Forward Collision Alert
  • Automatic Emergency Braking
  • Engine Air Filter Monitor
  • IntelliBeam®
  • Following Distance Indicator (with the Chevy Assist system)

The 2020 Ford Explorer offers a few of the above as standard (Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, the rear vision camera, and a tire pressure monitoring system), but its lacking features make a strong case for Chevrolet in this Chevy vs. Ford comparison. Of course, you can access many of the features in the Ford Explorer, but they’ll require a costly upgrade.
