Chevrolet launches the 2027 Trailblazer High Country Midnight in Brazil with a new Ironman suspension, 320 mm of ground clearance and a 100-unit debut run.

Chevrolet didn't hold back. On July 27, the automaker unveiled the production 2027 Trailblazer High Country Midnight in Brazil — and this is no cosmetic trim. The seven-seat, body-on-frame SUV now comes with genuine factory-level preparation for dirt roads and rough terrain.

The star of the show is the new Ironman suspension, with fresh springs and shocks developed together with General Motors engineers. Body height increases by up to 30 mm, pushing center ground clearance to an impressive 320 mm. The approach angle sits at 30.1 degrees, the departure angle at 24.8 degrees. The numbers speak for themselves.

Standard equipment includes 18-inch wheels wrapped in Michelin LTX Force all-terrain tires, underbody protection, tow hooks and extra lighting. The electronics got attention too: stability control and traction control were retuned for the revised suspension.

The heart of the truck, though, stays untouched. The 2.8 Duramax engine still makes 207 hp and 510 Nm of torque, paired with an eight-speed automatic and four-wheel drive with a low-range transfer case. Chevrolet has previously expanded its crossover and SUV lineup in Brazil as well.

The initial run of the Trailblazer High Country Midnight will total only around 100 units — an exclusive from day one. Chevrolet hasn't announced pricing or a firm delivery schedule yet.
