The new Chevrolet Blazer was introduced for the 2019 model year, but Chevrolet has wasted no time updating the mid-size crossover. For the 2020 model year, Chevrolet has added a new 2.0-liter turbo-four engine option that slots between the entry-level 2.5-liter unit and the range-topping 3.6-liter V6, along with a button to switch off the engine stop-start system.

New exterior color options are also available including Iridescent Pearl Tricoat, Bright Blue Metallic, and Midnight Blue Metallic as well as a black grille option and a decal pack to give the Blazer a sportier look.

Now, the EPA has released estimated fuel economy figures for the 2020 Chevrolet Blazer, including the new 2.0-liter turbo-four engine option. According to the EPA, the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder Blazer, which produces 230 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque and available for 2LT and 3LT trims, is rated at 21/28/24 mpg city/highway/combined for the FWD version, making it the most efficient model in the 2020 Chevrolet Blazer lineup.

The AWD version, on the other hand, returns an estimated 21/27/23 mpg city/highway/combined. How does this compare to other 2020 Chevrolet Blazer models?

The base L trim is powered by a naturally-aspirated 2.5-liter four-cylinder producing 193 hp and 188 lb-ft of torque and is only available with front-wheel-drive. The EPA rates this model at 21/27/23 mpg city/highway/combined. Topping the range are the RS and Premium trims that pack a more powerful 3.6-liter V6 producing 308 hp and 270 lb-ft of torque.

With front-wheel-drive, this unit returns 19/26/21 city/highway/combined according to the EPA, while the all-wheel drive version is rated at 18/25/21 mpg city/highway/combined. This makes it the least economic model in the range, which is hardly surprising.

Pricing for the 2020 Chevrolet Blazer starts at $29,995 for the base L trim, while the 2LT trim with the new turbo-four engine starts at $33,995.
