The 2022 Chevy Blazer will introduce the fourth model year for the current-generation crossover, with a few notable changes and updates over the 2021 model year. Among these is increased towing capacity for Blazer models equipped with the turbocharged 2.0L I4 LSY gasoline engine.
The 2022 Chevy Blazer will offer the V92 trailering package on all trim levels, whereas the 2021 model year offered the package on all trims with the exception of the base-level L and second-tier 1LT. However, the upcoming 2022 Chevy Blazer will delete the L and 1LT trims from the lineup, as GM Authority covered previously, which means the V92 package will be offered across the lineup. Front-wheel drive models get it as optional, while all-wheel drive models get it as standard.
The most important difference with regard to towing capacity is that the V92 package is now available in conjunction with the turbocharged 2.0L I4 LSY gasoline engine, whereas previously, the package required the naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 LGX with the 2021 model year.
As a result, towing capacity for Blazer models equipped with the turbocharged 2.0L I4 LSY increases from 1,500 pounds to 3,500 pounds.
To note, the V92 towing package includes the Hitch Guidance feature (RPO code CTT). On the 2LT trim level, it also includes Hitch View (RPO code PZ8) when ordered with the Sun & Technology Package (RPO cope WPI), as well as heavy-duty cooling (RPO code V08) when ordered with the naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 LGX gasoline engine.
When equipped on the RS trim level, the V92 trailering package includes Hitch View (PZ8) and heavy-duty cooling (V08) when ordered in conjunction with the naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 LGX gasoline engine.
For now, pricing for the V92 package has yet to be released. When ordered with the naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 LGX gasoline engine, towing capacity remains rated at 4,500 pounds, while towing for 2022 Chevy Blazer models without the V92 package is rated at 1,500 pounds.

Great gm getting 2.0 l Engine which Also includes possibly v92 towing pkge in its vehicles . Now we need 2.0 l in the GMC Terrain for 2022 which would also bring v 92 trailering pkge would be nice !!!
If I really intend to tow with the Blazer, why would I use the 2.0 when the 3.6 is available?
Use case: Most of your driving is typical urban/suburban cycle where the 2L offers better economics. Twice a year you need to tow 3,000Lbs of water or snow toys a short distance into or out of storage.
I guess gm is deciding to give consumers engine choice but you are correct why choose the 2.0 l when you got the 3.6 for towing capacity. It only makes more sense
