How much is insurance on a Chevrolet Trailblazer?

A 2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer runs about $1,830 a year for a typical 45-year-old, $110 less than an average car of the same age, because of lower non-crash losses and lower crash-repair losses. Putting a new 16-year-old on a family policy with the Trailblazer adds about $1,210 a year (#13 of 26 small SUVs we compare).

2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer (Trailblazer AWD), national average

about $1,830 a year (about $155 a month)

Estimated range: $1,350–$2,450. Actual quotes can fall outside it.

An average car of the same age (what HLDI's 2022–24 results measure against) runs about $1,940 a year. A used 2007 Trailblazer drops to about $1,540 (see the table below).

Priced for the 2024 Trailblazer AWD, the newest year covered by HLDI's loss data (2022–24 models), for a 45-year-old driver with a clean record and full coverage. HLDI's results combine drivers of all ages. We apply them to one example driver (a 45-year-old with a clean record) so pages are comparable; they aren't specific to 45-year-olds. Each state raises or lowers every car's price by the same percentage, so the Trailblazer's rank is the same in every state.

Why the Chevrolet Trailblazer costs what it does

What HLDI reports (2022–24 models, all drivers combined)

The Highway Loss Data Institute (HLDI) compares each model's insurance losses with an average car's. For the Chevrolet Trailblazer 4dr 4WD, on HLDI's scale where 100 is an average car and lower is better, it reports 77 for crash repairs, 73 for non-crash damage, 91 for damage to others' property, and 100 for injury claims.

What we estimate that means for price

Prices move less than loss results do: a car's loss record is only one of many things insurers weigh, and each weighs it differently. So we count only part of HLDI's difference. Combining crash repairs and non-crash damage (weighted about 71% and 29%, the share each makes up of industry claim costs), the Trailblazer comes out about 24% better than average. We count about 40% of that difference, so the part of the bill that fixes the car is about 10% less than average: about $860 a year vs $950. On the liability side, damage to others and injury claims combine to about 4% better than average. We count about half, so that part is about 2% less: $970 a year vs $990.

How the math works

In EPA size classes, the Trailblazer is a small SUV (gas-powered). In Highway Loss Data Institute loss tables, the Chevrolet Trailblazer is benchmarked against small SUVs.

A used Chevrolet Trailblazer, by model year

One model year per age group. Liability only: no coverage for the car itself. Teen columns: a new 16-year-old. Each row uses the HLDI report that covers that model year.
Model yearFull coverageLiability onlyAdding a teen
2024 Trailblazer AWD (0–3 years old)about $1,830about $970+$1,210
2022 Trailblazer AWD (4–7 years old)about $1,730about $970+$1,140
2007 TrailBlazer 2WD (13 or more years old)about $1,540about $1,000+$1,020

Our catalog covers the Chevrolet Trailblazer across model years 2006–2009, 2021–2027. Full coverage on a used 2007 Trailblazer (13 or more years old) runs about $1,540 a year, $290 less than on a 2024. Dropping collision and comprehensive on that 2007 brings liability-only coverage to about $1,000 a year. Each photo shows that year's generation of the car. Photo credits.

Across 2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer trims, full coverage goes from about $1,830 a year on the Trailblazer AWD to about $1,940 on the Trailblazer FWD, because HLDI's loss results differ by body, drive, or powertrain.

  • Trailblazer AWD: about $1,830
  • Trailblazer FWD: about $1,940

On a policy of their own with a 2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer, a 22–25-year-old pays about $2,380 a year ($550 more than a 45-year-old), a 26–39-year-old about $2,030, and a driver 65 and older about $1,920.

Adding a 16-year-old with a Chevrolet Trailblazer

Because the Chevrolet Trailblazer starts from lower losses than most cars, adding a new 16-year-old driver raises the family bill by about $1,210 a year ($100 a month), $80 less than adding a teen with an average car of the same age. Putting that 16-year-old on a policy of their own instead costs about $5,250 a year, about $4,040 more than sharing the family policy.

For adding a teen driver, the Chevrolet Trailblazer ranks 35th cheapest out of all 121 models we track. Stepping down to a used 2007 Trailblazer (13 or more years old) brings the teen add-on to about $1,020 a year.

That increase is how much the family bill goes up with a new 16-year-old driving this car. Cheapest cars to insure for a teen.

Similar small SUVs

Among these 26 small SUVs, the Chevrolet Trailblazer is the 13th least expensive to insure. Right next to it are the Ford Bronco Sport (about $1,830 a year) and the Hyundai Tucson (about $1,850).
