2023 Chevy Trailblazer Rear Park Assist Under Constraint

When production of the 2023 Chevy Trailblazer starts later this year, the subcompact crossover will not be available with Rear Park Assist (RPO code UD7) due to supply constraints, GM Authority has learned.

On the current, 2022 model-year Chevy Trailblazer, the Rear Park Assist feature is included and only available with the (RPO WPN) Driver Confidence and Cruise Package on the LS trim. Meanwhile, on the LT, RS and Activ trims, the feature is included and only available with the Driver Confidence Package (RPO ZL5).

The Driver Confidence and Cruise Package for the LS trim level includes the following equipment on the current, 2022 Chevy Trailblazer (relevant RPO codes in parentheses):

• Cruise control (RPO K34)
• Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert (RPO UKC)
• Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RPO UFG)
• Rear Park Assist (RPO UD7)

Production of the 2023 Chevy Trailblazer will start on April 24^th, as GM Authority reported last month. The subcompact crossover is produced at the GM Bupeyong plant in South Korea, which will add 6,000 units to the previously planned production schedule for the 2023MY. General Motors sold 90,161 units of the Chevy Trailblazer in the U.S. market last year, placing it second in the mainstream subcompact crossover segment. The Honda HR-V led the sales race in this segment in the U.S. with 137,090 units sold.

The 2023 Chevy Trailblazer will serve as the new entry-level model in the Bow Tie Brand’s lineup next year, with GM set to drop both the Chevy Spark and the Chevy Trax from its lineup after the conclusion of the 2022 production run. Prices for the 2022 Chevy Trailblazer start at $22,995 for the entry-level LS trim with front-wheel drive after a recent $200 price increase.

Power in the Chevy Trailblazer comes from the turbocharged 1.2L LIH I-3 gasoline engine, which produces 137 horsepower at 5,000 rpm and 162 pound-feet of torque at 2,500 rpm, or the turbocharged 1.3L L3T I-3 gasoline engine, which produces 155 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 174 pound-feet of torque at 1,500 rpm. The 1.2L LIH engine connects to GM’s continuously variable transmission (CVT), while the 1.3L L3T connects to either the CVT or the GM nine-speed automatic transmission, depending on if it’s equipped with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.
