The 2023 Chevy Blazer adds three new exterior colors to its palette: Copper Bronze Metallic, Radiant Red Tintcoat, and Sterling Gray Metallic. Here’s our first look at the new Gray hue.
Assigned RPO code GXD and touch-up paint code WA-130H, Sterling Gray Metallic is one of nine exterior colors offered on the midsize crossover, which include:
- Black
- Blue Glow Metallic
- Iridescent Pearl Tricoat
- Nitro Yellow Metallic
- Red Hot
- Summit White
- Copper Bronze Metallic (new for 2023)
- Radiant Red Tintcoat (new for 2023)
- Sterling Gray Metallic (new for 2023)
The Sterling Gray Metallic color is no-cost item that is available on all trim levels. In addition, the new color can be combined with all interior colorways.
For reference, here are all five available interior colorways offered on the 2023 Blazer:
- Jet Black (2LT/3LT/Premier only)
- Jet Black/Medium Ash Gray (2LT only)
- Jet Black/Maple Sugar (Premier)
- Jet Black/Nightshift Blue (RS only)
- Jet Black with Red accents (RS only)
The Blazer was refreshed for the 2023 model year, arriving with revised front and rear fascias, different LED headlights and taillights, and a bigger infotainment display. One of the interior changes is the addition of the Jet Black colorway with Nightshift Blue accents. Also, the 2023 Chevy Blazer gets separate Convenience and Driver Confidence packages, splitting the content previously included with the Convenience and Driver Confidence Package offered for the 2022 Blazer. Additionally, the 2023 Blazer two new Arctic appearance packages and expands availability of the wireless phone charging feature, which is now offered on all trim levels. Note that the Chevy Blazer dropped its L and 1LT trim levels for the 2022 model year.
The Chevy Blazer rides on the regular-wheelbase version of the GM C1 platform. GM’s turbocharged 2.0L I4 LSY gasoline engine remains standard on the 2023 Blazer 2LT, 3LT, and Premier, producing 228 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. The naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 LGX gasoline engine, meanwhile, is standard on the RS trim level and is available as an option on the 3LT and Premier. The LGX V6 is rated at 308 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque. Both of these engines are paired with the GM nine-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel-drive is standard and all-wheel-drive is optional.

GM comes up with all these fancy names for colors but the color itself stays the same – I have been watching the XT6 red tint coat and it the same red year after year but each year GM comes up with a new name – GM should focus on getting chips rathe than all these new creative color names
Incorrect, each new hue of red on the XT6 corresponds to a unique paint code. Same is the case here with Sterling Gray versus the prior shade. Try actually reading these articles.
First, the reds that you’re referring to are different. Each has a different shade and different paint codes.
Second, your logic is a bit “off.” Do you think the people dealing with chips (purchasing and engineering) are the same people dealing with color swatches (design)? It’s not a plug-and-play scenario. It also isn’t a scenario that current depends on GM so much as it does on factories outside of GM’s control… at least until GM begins to utilize its own chips.
I don’t understand the fascination of prison gray, that is a depressing color.
Here they go again = another dull, depressing, dismal shade of gray. Of the 3 new colors, why not show either of the other 2 INTERESTING colors in this article?
