[Nightster Guy]

Trailblazer, COMING SOON.... Bosen liat Fortuner ma Pasport di jalanan.. Everest tampangnya uda kadut gak bisa ngelawan duo Jepangan itu.

Nggak tau kenapa klo saya kurang suka design Trail Blazer, padahal kalau masih berupa truck (Colorado) keren banget.....malah saya masukin sebagai kandidat klo seandainya suatu saat perlu beli mobil pribadi.....

[Deasegara]

Baru inget ada thread ini, wah selama ini ane posting ttg T-Blezer di thread Blazer........xixixixixiixxi

Pak Turboman, sudah ada bocoran lum yg mau masuk Indo yg 2.5 atau 2.8 atau dua duanya...

Hmmm...kayaknya harus nunggu new everest 2013 Om...biar tambah seru. Naksir banget liat fitur all new ranger T6.

Menurut "bird news" 2 2 nya akan masuk, tapi kok feeling sayah sih yg most likely yg 2.5

Yg mesin 2.8 itu konon mesinnya sama dengan Wrangler 2.8 CRDi karena mesin 2.8 ini aslinya adalah disain VM Motori, hanya saja yg di TB / KolorIjo mesinnya dah buatan Thailand

Bore & stroke = 94 X 100 mm (sama)
Posisi filter oli sama
Posisi Turbo sama
Posisi alternator sama.

Bisa dilihat bentuk mesin KolorIjo dan Wrangler 2.8 CRDi

desain eksteriornya (subjektip) kurang sreg yaa.

MUANTAP.COM...Baru keliatan American DNA nya...walaupun ntah dimana dirancangnya

Kalo Kolorijo sih GM Brazil, tapi surveinya di Thai Maklum luar biasa penyerapan market Thia buat dobel kabin (no 1 atau 2 dunia, lupa). Yah, naga-naganya si Trailblazer ini hasil design GM Brazil juga.

http://media.gm.com/media/us/en/gm/news ... iland.html

The development of the all-new Colorado was led by a highly skilled team of GM engineers in Brazil who used their expertise to tailor the vehicle for a number of global markets, including those in Southeast Asia.

Team members lived in Thailand during the Colorado’s development, immersing themselves in the highly competitive truck market and observing how Thais use their vehicles and the driving conditions they experience. That expertise led to the development of new Colorado models covering three specification levels: the entry-level LS, mid-range LT and range-topping LTZ.

Eh, mod UG esek-esekfavorit ane..

Ane berpendapat serupa saat cuma liat foto Chevy Kolorijo mod. Ternyata, setelah liat aslinya, swer keren banget si Kolorijo, lebih keren dari New Ranger (yang tadinya kliatan lebih gagah di foto).

Subjective sih soal ginian. IMHO lah.

Mod forum ijo shutdown uda 2 minggu neh wkwkwkwkw adminnya kabur.

ente pun kalo lagi JV sering subjektip bang......

TB mungkin disain tengah - belakangnya agak gimanaa getu

Mesin Wrangler 2.8 CRDi




Mesin KolorIjo / TB 2.8





Lihat posisi alternator / turbo / Intake & filter oli-nya.......xixixixixiixxiixixixixix

Affirmative sama, om.

Kode mesin R428, by VM Motori. Kalo gak salah si VM Motori ini juga tempo hari dipake di military version Jeep JK yaitu Jeep J8 (Mesir made ).

Berarti JK Wrangler CRD bisa diservis di bengkel Chevy, juga sebaliknya..

Wah kalo yg 2.8 yg masuk asik dong, apalagi didesign VM Motori. Yang 2.0 di Captiva VCDI tenaganya sudah dahsyat (menurut saya terdahsyat SUV 7 seater CRDI di Indonesia di harga < 400 jt), apalagi yg 2.8 pasti lebih dahsyat. Kalo yg 2.5 saya jadi pesimis apalagi non VNT, pasti gak sedahsyat Captiva VCDI. Yang 2.8 layak ditunggu he...he...he. Saya tunggu reviewnya pak Turboman kalo udah TD nanti.

Walau gak VNT, Kolorijo 2.5 tenaganya cukup nendang bro, sama persis ma Ranger baru.

kata BKK post :

What makes the Trailblazer impressive over its rivals is interior practicality and versatility. There are seven seats (all with proper safety gear) that offer decent comfort for people of most sizes, and they can fold down to create a flat bay (although a hollow bit remains at the boot lid).

In packaging and functionality terms, the Fortuner trails far behind with a dated, hard-to-use seating matrix, while the Pajero Sport just falls short of the Trailblazer.

When it comes to driving dynamics, the Trailblazer has an edge over its opposition. What Chevrolet did was not only ditch the Colorado's leaf springs and replaced it coil springs, but also introduced a car-like five-link suspending the rear wheels.

This advantage can clearly be felt at high speeds whereby body control is better contained than in any of the Trailblazer's rivals. Combine that with a taut suspension setting and some meaty steering, this Chevy handles neatly on straight roads and twisty bits.

Chevrolet engineers acknowledged that the Trailblazer has beefier driving characteristics than the Colorado due to more weight. And because of this, the steering might prove a little heavy for some at low speeds and the ride a tad firm.

But folks, the Trailblazer is an SUV that needs to combine highway abilities, as well. The Fortuner, in contrast, took the opposite route during its facelift last year with a comfier set-up to appeal to urbanites.

While that ultimately depends on what you're looking for, the concept of the Trailblazer seems more justified as SUVs suit places outside the city.

If there is one area the Trailblazer can't beat the Fortuner, it has to be the engine.

No, the 180hp 2.8-litre diesel-turbo unit of the Trailblazer is powerful enough and the six-speed automatic helps for cruising efficiency.

What the Chevy lacks is the instantaneous response and engine refinement of Toyota's D4D unit. In other words, the Trailblazer's motor feels lazier and noisier _ quite similar to the Pajero Sport.

But if you happen to be one of those drivers not too concerned about the delicacies of diesel performance, the Trailblazer is sufficiently capable considering that its highest in-class output comes with decent economy.

We got 12kpl average on a drive to Nakhon Nayok which is a notch better than what we managed in earlier tests with the Fortuner and Pajero Sport.

Which naturally means that the Trailblazer is above average for the overall in the PPV class of SUVs, with good levels of practicality, performance and road manners.

Chevrolet has also wired the Trailblazer with an array of braking, chassis and driving-aid electronics in LTZ spec. And speaking of the brakes, the Trailblazer is the first to get disc brakes on all four corners on all variants.

At just under 1.5 million baht, the Trailblazer comes away as quite an impressive SUV to consider over the Fortuner and Pajero Sport. That's almost like handing it a victory but with some reluctance due to some petty flaws.

What about the Captiva, you may ask, that retails for 200,000 baht more than Trailblazer in range-topping form with a diesel engine?

Good things come at a price, to put it bluntly. The seven-seat Captiva is almost as spacious but equally practical as the Trailblazer. Better is the performance, economy and refinement.

And the Captiva's sturdier monocoque chassis clearly has handling and ride advantages over the Trailblazer, which uses a body-on-frame variation (that has theoretical merits in off-roading).

To sum up, the Captiva is the choice for the more delicate driver, while the Trailblazer suits the average Somchai who's more interested in metal and price.

At the moment, it appears that Chevrolet has two capable SUV alternatives to choose from. And by saying that, the Trailblazer is a commendable newcomer to the SUV scene.
AT A GLANCE

Styling ................................. 7/10

The Trailblazer looks distinctive among its pickup-based rivals, but it has a too similar face with the Colorado donor vehicle.

Performance ........................ 8/10

The 2.8-litre diesel engine is powerful enough, although oomph isn't that instantaneous. Six-speed auto helps on cruising economy.

Handling and ride .................. 8/10

The Trailblazer has a nice stable ride and crisp steering feel, which can feel a little heavy at low speeds, though.

Practicality .......................... 9/10

There's enough space for seven people inside, and the second and third rows of seats can fold flat _ but not with the boot floor.

Safety kit ............................. 7/10

All seven occupants get proper passive safety gear. But there are only two airbags up front, despite an array of active safety items.

VERDICT .............................. 8/10

As an SUV tailored as a recreational vehicle, there are many things to like about the Trailblazer such as ample performance, decent driving characteristics and a highly practical interior _ all at a competitive price in top-spec form.

Tapi mesin Wrangler 2.8 CRDi itu suaranya cukup bergemuruh saat idle

Cuman kalo dah jalan di Tol yah wuuzzzzzzzzzzz..............

[Belphegor]

Kalo ane baca di atas berarti performancenya TB 2.8 tidak lebih baik daripada ctv vcdi yah? Dan kekurangan lainnya, transmisi kurang sigap. CMIIW.

ya memang beda kategori um, yg 1 SUV besar steel ladder 2 Ton, satunya CrossOver compact monokok

Tapi......nanti Performace parts buat Duramax 4 Cyl ini bakal banyak, Powerlab udah ngeluarin, ECU Shop sedang tahap development, ga lama lagi rilis MonsterMax tuk Duramax 4 Cyl 2.5 / 2.8

Sedang utk captiva pilihan Piggyback terbatas sekitar Tuning Box spt PP / RCP dan Dastek Q tanpa Extender.

[Deasegara]

Pak Turboman kira-kira kenapa TB lebih berisik dari Fortie yg disana, apa karena outputnya lebih gede dg cc lebih kecil ?

[Deasegara]

Ya betul bro, cuma tanpa VNT kurang nendang/responsive di rpm bawah. Kalo gas langsung dibejek terasa sekali bedanya.

Disain mesinnya "dr sononya" kayaknya dah begitu.......tapi kalo dikasih solar yg bagus sih suara akan lebih alus.

Wah sepertinya TB bakal fenomenal ya pak Turboman....semuanya dah pada siap-siap keluarin produk penambah daya, bisa jadi monstermax beneran tuh si TB he..he...

Kompetisi TB vs PJS vs 42ner akan sgt menarik tuk disaksikan, apakah GM Thai / GMI mampu menggoyang singgasana 42ner

Kalo ngeliat develompent & fitur2-nya sih GM Thai kelihatan serius sekali tuk menggoyang singgasana 42ner, dimana si Trelblezer ini merp SUV di kelasnya dgn fitur elektronik paling kumplit spt :
- Stability control
- Traction control
- Hill descent assist
- Fitur semacam Climb assist (mencegah turun mundur sendiri saat kagok di posisi nanjak)
- Cornering brake control
- Hydrolik brake assist
- Panic brake assist
- ABS
- EBD

Kebayang TB kalo dibawa turing jalur selatan Jawa yg jalannya meliuk liuk asik kayaknya........

Tapi posisi 42ner di Thailand kelewat kuat utk bisa digoyang.

Nah gak tahu gimana ntar di Indonesia

Tuned Kolorado 2.8 w/ Powerlab

perhatikan tarikan dari 50 - 150 nya.....lalu 170 sampe 200 an.............

Nah itu dia pak Turboman, cocok dengan angan-angan saya turing jalur selatan Jawa. Selama ini saya n keluarga dah turing pantai selatan Jawa mulai dari pantai Ngliyep, Sendang Biru, Tambak, Jolosutro, popoh, prigi, dan terakhir Parangtritis pake Captiva VCDI dah terasa nyaman dan powerfull, apalagi pake TB 2.8. Wah gak kebayang asiknya he..he..he. Dan juga kabin sepertinya lebih lega dari Captiva.
