On March 27, 2024, Chevrolet, a brand of SAIC General Motors, announced the launch of the first intelligent electric plug-in hybrid SUV, named “Trailblazer Plus”. The new work of the SUV pioneer, Trailblazer Plus, adopts Chevrolet’s new global design language, inheriting the powerful and domineering appearance of American SUVs, and for the first time incorporates Chevrolet’s innovative deconstructivist design, presenting the hardcore charm and fashionable temperament of the “new generation urban intelligent electric plug-in hybrid SUV”. At the same time, Trailblazer Plus is the first to apply SAIC General Motors’ new generation PHEV intelligent electric plug-in hybrid technology, leading the same class with strong electric drive performance, ultra-low energy consumption, and super long range, becoming the first choice for mid-size SUVs.
The Chevrolet Marketing Department Director of SAIC-GM, Fu Cheng, said: “In 2024, Chevrolet will launch a new flagship product, the Altene Pure Electric and Intelligent Electric Hybrid. The Explorer Plus is one of the iconic products created with global superior resources, marking a milestone. Chevrolet is confident in the Chinese market, backed by SAIC-GM’s leading global intelligent electric technology and nearly 30 years of electrification technology reserves, as well as SAIC-GM’s strong new energy technology full-chain system strength. Chevrolet will steadfastly accelerate the product layout in the new energy and intelligent race track, driving the brand’s comprehensive renewal.” The Explorer Plus blends hardcore charm and urban fashion in its appearance, with a domineering front face, sturdy wide body, and muscular lines full of power. The unique D-pillar design ensures a smooth roofline for more headroom in the rear seats and ample cargo capacity in the trunk. Moreover, the Explorer Plus deeply understands the aesthetic trends of the times, breaking through the classic American style with a groundbreaking combination of deconstructive design and futuristic mechanical elements, breaking conventions, and bringing a strong brand recognition.
The black suspended roof, the drilled LED fashionable taillights, the classic square wheel arches with 19-inch black ten-spoke wheels, the details are cleverly outlined, eye-catching. To further meet the urban fashion crowd’s pursuit of personalized design, the Explorer Plus will offer two unique interior and exterior design styles, RS and ACTIV, interpreting the stylish new classic of American SUVs.
With nearly 90 years of craftsmanship in the SUV field, Chevrolet has a vast and diverse SUV product line. Among them, the star series, the Trailblazer, has undergone three generations of evolution over 20 years, attracting over 4.7 million loyal fans and becoming one of the best-selling midsize SUVs globally. As a new generation model, the Trailblazer Plus plug-in hybrid SUV will bring consumers a high-quality, high-safety, and high-value intelligent electric travel experience covering all scenarios.
