Available in two trim levels, the 2006 Chevrolet TrailBlazer is also available in two wheelbase lengths. All models also feature a four-wheel drive and a four-speed auto transmission.

The base model is fitted with an I-6 4.2 liter 291 horsepower engine, but can be further upgraded to a Vortec 5300 V-8 overhead valve 5.3 liter engine that produces 300 hp and 330 pounds-feet of torque for both the standard as well as the EXT models.
