PROS Looks much better than the old car Decent interior quality Respectable 201-mile range
CONS Cramped rear seats Alternatives trump it for boot space Infotainment not the sharpest
The Vauxhall Mokka-e offers buyers sharp looks, a decent range, a generous amount of standard kit and a relatively comfy and quiet ride. However, if you’re looking for a funky urban EV, there are cheaper options available, such as the Fiat 500 and Mazda MX-30. Those looking for an EV to ‘do it all’, meanwhile, would be far better off with a Kia e-Niro or Volkswagen ID.3, both of which are far more spacious and will go much farther on a charge.
PROS Pretty comfortable Impressively quiet at speed Plenty of standard kit
CONS e-Niro and ID.3 have longer ranges Cheap feeling interior Not that quick by EV standards
“Does most of the everyday stuff nicely while looking like a bulldog wearing a crash helmet ”
PROS Distinctive modern looks, decent electric range, plenty of trim choices with lots of kit
CONS Brittle ride and dodgy brakes in the electric one. Some iffy cabin plastics. Ford’s Puma is a better steer
The 2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer is an old name on a new idea from GM.
Pros Sharp looks Heritage name Right-sized Standard active safety tech
Cons Comparatively sedate interior How much will it cost? No powertrain info
The Chevy Trailblazer is all-new for 2021, returning to the market after Chevy ended production of the crossover in 2009.The 2021 Trailblazer starts at less than $20,000, making it cheaper than the Trax. Every model features a standard 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Except for the base L model, every Trailblazer can be had with all-wheel drive and the more powerful turbocharged 1.3-liter four-cylinder engine. While the Activ and RS models have distinctly rugged and sporty styling, respectively, we think the LT trim level is the best value. We'd also recommend opting for the bigger engine with all-wheel drive for an extra $2000.
After a 12-year hiatus, the Trailblazer name has been revived for the U.S.Part of the second Trailblazer generation introduced for 2021.
Pros Sharp exterior styling Competitive list of standard and optional safety features Activ model brings some light off-road capabilities
Cons Engine and power figures seem weak on paper for an SUV
