Many models serve to compete with the new Chevy Blazer, but the matchup most SUV drivers are sure to have on their minds is the 2024 Chevy Blazer vs 2024 Ford Edge. Both of these midsize SUVs offer families convenience and practicality, with enough room for the whole family and efficient powertrains that'll keep your day going smoothly. So, the question is, which is better for your family? The Chevy Blazer or the Ford Edge?
McCluskey Chevrolet has been serving drivers throughout Cincinnati for decades now. We know what families, single drivers, and those who use their car or truck for work are looking for in their vehicles. We know drivers around these parts, which is how we can help families find the perfect model for them. SUVs provide families with the resilience they need to keep going, which is why we’re passionate about helping drivers find the SUV that suits their needs just right. Both Chevy and Ford have produced some excellent additions to their SUV lineup this year, and the Blazer and Edge have lots of features that families will surely find useful.
The 2024 Chevy Blazer is a midsize SUV designed to offer utility whether you’re driving in the city, on the freeway, or through the countryside. To help drivers take this on, a robust powertrain is employed to keep the vehicle going through anything. With a standard 228-hp, turbocharged, 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, the 2024 Blazer gives families enough power to take on adventures in any environment.
The 2024 Chevy Blazer also has an available 3.6-liter V6 engine, which bumps its power rating up to 308 hp so that families with a wild side can kick up the excitement. Both of these engines are paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission, making the 2024 Blazer responsive, maneuverable, and efficient. The electric iteration of the 2024 Blazer—the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV—also offers some high performance. With a unique Ultium battery, the Blazer EV can produce as much as 557 hp in all-wheel drive, lending the electric-powered version of this SUV a whole different degree of capability.
The 2024 Ford Edge also features a great deal of power, and it grants utility on diverse terrain with its standard all-wheel drive. With a standard 2.0-liter EcoBoost Turbo I-4 engine that achieves 250 hp, the Ford Edge is quite powerful as well. It also has an available 2.7-liter EcoBoost Turbo V6 that provides drivers with 355 hp. Drivers get either an eight- or seven-speed automatic transmission, depending on which trim level they choose.
While the 2024 Ford Edge features an optional engine that is quite powerful, the 2024 Chevy Blazer offers more power in the initial engine, as well as transmission options that are more advanced and dynamic, so drivers can maintain control of their vehicle with confidence no matter where they go, making the 2024 Chevy Blazer the superior of the two.
SUVs are all about keeping families going, and the 2024 Chevy Blazer does exactly that. With its standard 2.0-liter engine, the Chevy Blazer achieves an EPA-estimated fuel economy rating of 22 MPG in cities and 29 MPG on freeways, for 25 MPG combined. With its additional 3.6-liter engine option, the 2024 Blazer gets up to 19 MPG in cities and 26 MPG on highways for a combined total fuel economy of 22 MPG.
Even with its higher caliber engine, the 2024 Blazer maintains excellent efficiency so that families can take on a bustling schedule, high adventure, or anything between for as long as they need to. As is the case with many electric vehicles, the 2024 Chevy Blazer EV really shines in efficiency, with an EPA-estimated range of 279 miles in AWD or 320 miles in RWD.
The Ford Edge is also known as an efficient vehicle. With its 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine, the Ford Edge provides drivers with an EPA-estimated fuel economy rating of 21 MPG in cities and 28 MPG on highways, for 23 MPG combined. With its optional 2.7-liter engine, this shifts to an EPA-estimated rating of 19 MPG in cities and 25 MPG on highways, for 21 MPG combined. These ratings are certainly competitive and can serve Cincinnati families greatly, should they choose this model.
However, between the two models, there’s no contest, as the 2024 Chevy Blazer offers significantly higher fuel economy ratings than the 2024 Ford Edge. Chevy’s midsize SUV will keep families on the road longer than Ford’s, as the Blazer can handle whatever adventure is thrown its way, no matter the circumstances.
Safety is among the most important attributes that a vehicle—especially an SUV—can offer, which is why the 2024 Chevy Blazer has more standard safety features than any of its previous iterations. The 2024 Blazer comes standard with the Chevy Safety Assist suite, which makes all sorts of advanced safety tech available. These standard features include Forward Collision Alert, Front Pedestrian Braking, and Following Distance Indicator to prevent potential accidents.
Additionally, the 2024 Blazer also features a standard HD Rear Vision Camera, helping to make revising easier. Additional standard features include Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, StabiliTrak electronic stability control, and rear child security locks so parents can have peace of mind while on the road.
The Ford Edge also features safety tech that keeps families safe. Among these are front, rear, and side airbags that can help to prevent injury in the event of a crash. Driver knee airbags can further help prevent injury, offering a bit more confidence on the road. A rearview camera also helps to keep tabs on what’s going on behind the vehicle when backing up, and child rear door locks can help to keep younger drivers exactly where they should be while the vehicle is in motion.
As with efficiency, safety tech is no contest, as the 2024 Chevy Blazer features leagues more than the 2024 Ford Edge. Furthermore, all of the advanced features mentioned here come standard on the Blazer, which keeps families safe, confident, and at peace while on the road.
Families and single drivers alike look for comfort and convenience in an SUV, and the Chevy Blazer offers a litany of features that increase the experience on both of these fronts, creating a space that is quiet and comfortable for everyone on board. For those sitting up front, the Blazer has 39.8 inches of headroom and 41 inches of legroom, while in the back, passengers can enjoy 38.6 inches of headroom and 41 inches of legroom. For those up front, heated seating helps to keep things cozy in the colder months, and an available heated steering wheel helps with this further. Heated seating can also be found in the rear passenger seats, keeping everyone warm in the wintertime.
As for connectivity technology, the Chevy Blazer keeps everyone informed and entertained via a 10.2-inch color touchscreen interface, through which you can control your entertainment and navigational features. This infotainment system pairs nicely with a 4.2-inch driver information center beyond the steering wheel. These tech centers make the experience of driving the Chevy Blazer both more informative and more enjoyable.
The 2024 Ford Edge features a number of amenities that make it a convenient model as well, such as cargo area lights and cloth seating, though heated seating does not come standard with this model. Two 12-volt power outlets can also be found in the Edge’s cabin, allowing occupants to charge electronics. Other basic convenience features include an outside temperature display, power door locks, a locking glove compartment, and dual illuminated vanity visor mirrors.
Convenience comes in droves with the 2024 Chevy Blazer, which provides a litany of standard tech that boosts entertainment and comfort alike. While the 2024 Ford Edge provides quite a few amenities of its own, there’s simply more that the 2024 Chevy Blazer has to offer than its Ford competitor.
