Used 2023 Chevrolet Blazer for Sale nearChicago, IL

How much does the 2023 Chevrolet Blazer cost?

Prices have softened 3.06% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 3,805 listings available, which gives you a solid pool of options to compare.

Is the 2023 Chevrolet Blazer a good car?

Yes — with a 5/5 user rating and a 7.17/10 expert rating, you’re looking at a model that resonates strongly with owners and still earns a solid expert score. The standout strength is Look and feel at 9/10.

Owners consistently praise the sporty design, comfort, power, roomy interior, and quiet ride. That lines up well with the Blazer’s use case as a modern, car-based crossover for shoppers who want more refinement and efficiency than old-school ruggedness.

The trade-offs are that performance is described as fairly pedestrian and fuel economy is poor, and advanced safety features are not standard. Even so, if you want a midsize SUV with a polished feel and expressive styling, this model year fits that brief well.

Good and great deals account for 34.7% of listings, which suggests there are still worthwhile opportunities in the market.

Is the 2023 Chevrolet Blazer reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a dependable-feeling ownership experience, with praise centered on comfort, power, and a quiet ride that can make daily use feel trouble-free. The expert evaluation also emphasizes that the Blazer is built for on-road refinement and everyday usability, which supports the sense that it’s a vehicle you can count on for regular commuting and family duty.

Chevy’s three-year, 36,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty and five-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty provide average mainstream coverage. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that higher-mileage examples may show wear in the areas owners care about most: ride quality, features, and overall refinement.

What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Chevrolet Blazer?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 85.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still run a history report on any candidate, even if the listing looks clean at first glance. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection that checks the suspension, tires, brakes, and electronics, since this is a crossover where comfort and tech matter a lot in daily use. Focus on overall condition and feature operation, especially if you’re shopping a higher-mileage example or one with more options.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The lineup includes 2LT, 3LT, Premier, and RS, and the higher trims bring a more upscale look and feel. Cloth seats are standard, leather upholstery is available on higher trims, and all models get dual-zone automatic climate control. The RS and Premier stand out with a more premium interior presentation, while the base setup is more straightforward.
• Powertrain: Most models use a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 228 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. A 3.6-liter V6 is standard on the RS and optional on the 3LT and Premier, making it the stronger choice if you want more punch. Both engines pair with a nine-speed automatic, and FWD is standard with AWD available.
• Safety package: The standard Chevy Safety Assist Package includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian braking, a following distance indicator, forward collision warning, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, and automatic high beams. Adaptive cruise control is available on the 2LT and 3LT, while blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, rear park assist, a 360-degree camera system, rear camera mirror, a Safety Alert vibrating driver seat, and Teen Driver are also available.
• Infotainment: A 10.2-inch touchscreen is standard, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard as well. Wireless device charging is available on all trim levels, standard on the RS and Premier, and optional on the 2LT and 3LT. RS and Premier also get built-in navigation and an eight-speaker Bose audio system.
• Fuel efficiency: Four-cylinder models are rated at 25 mpg combined with FWD and 24 mpg combined with AWD. V6 models are rated at 22 mpg combined with FWD and 21 mpg combined with AWD.

Which 2023 Chevrolet Blazer trim should I buy?

The 2023 Chevrolet Blazer is offered in 4 trim levels: 2LT, 3LT, Premier, and RS.

Here's the short version:

• 2LT: This is the entry point, and it gives you the core Blazer experience with the standard turbo-four, the 10.2-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the standard safety suite. It makes sense if you want the lowest-cost way into the model and don’t need the extra luxury or power features.
• 3LT: This trim is the better value if you want more flexibility, since it opens the door to the available V6 and adds more room to build in comfort and safety options. It’s a smart middle ground if you want a more tailored Blazer without jumping all the way to the top trims.
• Premier: This is the more upscale choice, with available V6 power, built-in navigation, an eight-speaker Bose audio system, and a more premium overall presentation. It suits you best if comfort and convenience matter more than keeping the price down.
• RS: This is the most distinctive trim, and it comes standard with the V6, wireless charging, the 8-inch instrument display, navigation, and the Bose audio system. It’s the one to choose if you want the strongest style statement and the most complete feature set.

Adaptive cruise control is available on the 2LT and 3LT, while the higher trims already had it available as well.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2023 Chevrolet Blazer?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop with some leverage if you’re patient.

• Inventory: There are 3,805 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 3.06% compared with last year.

What is the 2023 Chevrolet Blazer's resale value?

The current average of $27,305 sits slightly below last year's $28,166.

That softer pricing can help you buy more confidently now, but it also suggests the model has already absorbed some depreciation. If you plan to sell later, the current market gives you a decent entry point, though you should expect resale to depend heavily on trim, mileage, and condition.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2023 Chevrolet Blazer safe?

The 2023 Chevrolet Blazer earns Good ratings in all six IIHS crash-test categories and a five-star overall safety rating from NHTSA, with five-star ratings in frontal and side crash tests and four-star ratings in rollover testing.

It earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.

The standard Chevy Safety Assist Package includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian braking, forward collision warning, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, a following distance indicator, and automatic high beams. Adaptive cruise control is available on the 2LT and 3LT, and other available features include blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, rear park assist, a 360-degree camera system, rear camera mirror, a Safety Alert vibrating driver seat, and Teen Driver.

One caveat is that advanced safety features are not standard across the lineup, so you’ll want to check the exact equipment on any used example you’re considering.

Should I buy a 2023 Chevrolet Blazer or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2023 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2023 if:

• 34.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 85.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 3.06% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2023 adds a new 10-inch touchscreen and broader availability of wireless charging.

Consider the 2022 if:

• At $23,881, the 2022 costs less than the current year's $27,305 average.
• It emphasizes sporty styling and practical space.

The bottom line: If you want the better-equipped and more current version, the 2023 is the stronger pick. If your priority is spending less up front, the 2022 is the value-oriented alternative, especially if you can find one in good condition with the features you want.
