Another major change included a new option in the lineup, the new 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer SS sporting a 6.0L V-8 Vortec engine producing 395HP and 400FTLB of Torque.
A new heavy-duty 4-speed automatic transmission rockets the 2006 TrailBlazer to 60MPH in 5.8 seconds with a quarter-mile time of 13.5 seconds at 100MPH. A cold-air intake system, ZQ8 sport suspension package, performance-based brake system and optional All-Wheel-Drive system make the 2006 Chevrolet TrailBlazer SS one of the highest performing sport utility vehicles ever.
