New 2026 Chevrolet Blazer in Kearney, NE
Most midsize SUVs blend in. The Blazer never learned how. With Camaro-inspired proportions, a low athletic stance, and a cockpit angled around the driver, the 2026 Blazer is the two-row SUV for people who still care how their family hauler looks and drives. This year brings welcome news for the wallet too: a simplified 2LT, 3LT, and RS lineup now starts at $34,300, more than a thousand dollars less than last year. The standard 228-horsepower turbo pairs with a smooth nine-speed automatic, the RS offers a 308-horsepower V6 with up to 4,500 pounds of towing, and all-wheel drive is available on every trim for Nebraska’s four seasons. A 10.2-inch touchscreen and Chevy Safety Assist come standard throughout. Explore our current Blazer inventory online or in person at Midway Chevrolet in Kearney, slide behind that driver-angled cockpit, and drive home the SUV that simply refuses to be ordinary.
Camaro DNA, SUV Duty
Slim LED eyes, a wide athletic grille, and muscular haunches give the Blazer a presence no crossover rival can match. The RS turns the attitude up with black accents, unique grille treatment, and big wheels, making every school pickup line feel a little more like a red carpet.
A Cockpit With Attitude
Round turbine-style vents and a driver-angled center stack borrow straight from the Camaro playbook, while the standard 10.2-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto keeps things modern. Behind the style waits real family space: five comfortable seats and up to 64.2 cubic feet of cargo room.
The 2026 Blazer: Style and Substance, Now for Less
The two-row midsize segment is full of sensible boxes, which is exactly why the Blazer stands out. For 2026, Chevrolet streamlined the lineup to three clear choices and cut the price of entry to $34,300, making the boldest design in the class easier to own than ever. The 2LT and 3LT run a 228-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder through a responsive nine-speed automatic, delivering confident highway passing with everyday efficiency, while the flagship RS offers a 308-horsepower 3.6-liter V6 for stronger acceleration and up to 4,500 pounds of towing when properly equipped.
Every trim offers all-wheel drive, turning the Blazer into a planted, all-season companion that shrugs off I-80 crosswinds, gravel county roads, and January snow with equal composure. Chevy Safety Assist is standard across the board, including automatic emergency braking, lane keep assist, and forward collision alert, with available adaptive cruise control and surround vision cameras layering on more confidence.
Inside, the Camaro-inspired cockpit proves style and practicality can share a cabin: supportive seats for five, generous second-row legroom, 64.2 cubic feet of maximum cargo space, and an available hands-free power liftgate. The standard 10.2-inch touchscreen with wireless smartphone connectivity keeps everyone entertained on the way to wherever the weekend leads. Prefer to skip gas entirely?
