2020 Toyota 4Runner vs. 2020 Chevy Blazer

There was a time when the Toyota 4Runner and Chevy Blazer were among the top names in the SUV class of the automotive industry. The Blazer was canceled and brought back by its automaker as crossover SUV, whereas the 4Runner has remained in production and also remains a true, rugged body-on-frame off-road-ready SUV platform. A comparison of the 2020 Toyota 4Runner vs. 2020 Chevy Blazer will help customers very clearly see the different capabilities these two vehicles bring to the marketplace. While all trim grades of the 2020 4Runner can offer a competent off-road capability, it still succeeds in making daily commuting activities as easy as possible. The new generation of the Chevy Blazer is definitely geared more for the latter of those capabilities. Customers can schedule an appointment today by calling 203-403-6890.
