2026 Chevrolet Blazer
2026 Jaguar F-Pace

Safety

For enhanced safety, the front and rear (child comfort guides) seat shoulder belts of the Chevrolet Blazer are height-adjustable to accommodate a wide variety of driver and passenger heights. A better fit can prevent injuries and the increased comfort also encourages passengers to buckle up. The Jaguar F-Pace doesn’t offer height-adjustable seat belts.

In the past twenty years hundreds of infants and young children have died after being left in vehicles, usually by accident. When turning the vehicle off, drivers of the Blazer are reminded to check the back seat if they opened the rear door before starting out. The F-Pace doesn’t offer a back seat reminder.

The Chevrolet Blazer has a standard driver’s side knee airbag mounted low on the dashboard. The knee airbag helps prevent the driver from sliding under the seatbelts or the main frontal airbag; this keeps the driver better positioned during a collision for maximum protection. A knee airbag also helps keep the legs from striking the dashboard, preventing knee and leg injuries in the case of a serious frontal collision. The F-Pace doesn’t offer knee airbags.

Compared to metal, the Blazer’s plastic fuel tank can withstand harder, more intrusive impacts without leaking; this decreases the possibility of fire. The Jaguar F-Pace has a metal gas tank.

Both the Blazer and the F-Pace have standard driver and passenger frontal airbags, front side-impact airbags, side-impact head airbags, front seatbelt pretensioners, four-wheel antilock brakes, traction control, electronic stability systems to prevent skidding, crash mitigating brakes, daytime running lights, lane departure warning systems, blind spot warning systems, rearview cameras, rear cross-path warning, available all wheel drive and around view monitors.

Warranty

There are almost 24 times as many Chevrolet dealers as there are Jaguar dealers, which makes it much easier should you ever need service under the Blazer’s warranty.

Reliability

To reliably power the ignition and other systems and to recharge the battery, the Blazer has a standard 170-amp alternator (155-amp - Blazer V6 FWD). The F-Pace’s 130-amp alternator isn’t as powerful.

J.D. Power and Associates rated the Blazer first among midsize suvs in their 2025 Initial Quality Study. The F-Pace isn’t in the top three in its category.

Fuel Economy and Range

On the EPA test cycle the Blazer gets better mileage than the F-Pace:

MPG

Blazer

FWD

3.6 DOHC V6

19 city/26 hwy

2.0 turbo 4-cyl.

22 city/29 hwy

AWD

3.6 DOHC V6

18 city/25 hwy

2.0 turbo 4-cyl.

22 city/27 hwy

F-Pace

AWD

3.0 turbo/supercharged 6-cyl. Hybrid

19 city/25 hwy

5.0 supercharged V8

15 city/21 hwy

An engine control system that can shut down some of the engine’s cylinders helps improve the Blazer V6’s fuel efficiency. The F-Pace doesn’t offer a system that can shut down part of the engine.

To lower fuel costs and make buying fuel easier, the Chevrolet Blazer uses regular unleaded gasoline (premium recommended with the 2.0 turbo 4-cylinder engine for maximum performance). The F-Pace requires premium, which can cost on average about 84.9 cents more per gallon.

The Blazer has a standard cap-less fueling system. The fuel filler is automatically opened when the fuel nozzle is inserted and automatically closed when it’s removed. This eliminates the need to unscrew and replace the cap and it reduces fuel evaporation, which causes pollution. The F-Pace doesn’t offer a cap-less fueling system.

Environmental Friendliness

In its Green Vehicle Guide, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rates the Chevrolet Blazer higher (4 to 6 out of 10) than the Jaguar F-Pace (2 to 6). This means the Blazer produces up to 27.7 pounds less smog-producing pollutants than the F-Pace every 15,000 miles.

Transmission

A nine-speed automatic is standard on the Chevrolet Blazer, for better acceleration and lower engine speed on the highway. Only an eight-speed automatic is available for the F-Pace.

Tires and Wheels

The Chevrolet Blazer’s wheels have 6 lugs for longer wheel bearing life, less chance of rotor warping and greater strength. The Jaguar F-Pace only has 5 wheel lugs per wheel.

The Blazer has a standard easy tire fill system. When inflating the tires, the vehicle’s integrated tire pressure sensors keep track of the pressure as the tires fill and tell the driver when the tires are inflated to the proper pressure. The F-Pace doesn’t offer vehicle monitored tire inflation.

Suspension and Handling

For better handling and stability, the track (width between the wheels) on the Blazer is 1.7 inches wider in the front and 1 inch wider in the rear than the average track on the F-Pace.

The Blazer RS AWD handles at .87 G’s, while the F-Pace pulls only .85 G’s of cornering force in a Car and Driver skidpad test.

For better maneuverability, the Blazer’s turning circle is .5 feet tighter than the F-Pace’s (38.7 feet vs. 39.2 feet). The Blazer’s turning circle is .7 feet tighter than the F-Pace SVR’s (38.7 feet vs. 39.4 feet).

Chassis

The front grille of the Blazer uses electronically controlled shutters to close off airflow and reduce drag when less engine cooling is needed. This helps improve highway fuel economy. The F-Pace doesn’t offer active grille shutters.

Passenger Space

The Blazer has 11.8 cubic feet more passenger volume than the F-Pace (107.8 vs. 96).

The Blazer has .1 inches more front headroom, .7 inches more front legroom, 1.4 inches more front shoulder room, .1 inches more rear headroom, 2.4 inches more rear legroom and 2.8 inches more rear shoulder room than the F-Pace.

For enhanced passenger comfort on long trips the Blazer’s rear seats recline. The F-Pace’s rear seats don’t recline.

Cargo Capacity

To make loading groceries and cargo easier when your hands are full, the Blazer RS’ liftgate can be opened and closed just by kicking your foot under the back bumper, leaving your hands completely free. The F-Pace doesn’t offer a hands-free gesture to open its liftgate, forcing you to put cargo down if your hands are full.

Towing

The Blazer can be flat towed on all four wheels (dinghy towed), allowing recreational vehicle owners to bring it with them on the road. When they reach their destination, the Blazer can be unhitched and driven around locally. The F-Pace can’t be towed flat on the ground.

Ergonomics

The Blazer’s instruments include an oil pressure gauge and a temperature gauge - which could save your engine! Often ‘idiot lights’ don’t warn you until damage has been done. The F-Pace does not have an oil pressure gauge.

In case you lock your keys in your vehicle, or don’t have them with you, you can let yourself in using the Blazer’s available exterior PIN entry system. The F-Pace doesn’t offer an exterior PIN entry system, and its SOS Emergency Call can’t unlock the doors if the vehicle doesn’t have cell phone reception or the driver can’t contact the service.

To shield the driver and front passenger’s vision over a larger portion of the windshield and side windows, the Blazer has standard extendable sun visors. The F-Pace doesn’t offer extendable visors.

The Blazer offers an optional 115-volt a/c outlet on the center console, allowing you to recharge a laptop or run small household appliances without special adapters that can break or get misplaced. The F-Pace doesn’t offer a house-current electrical outlet.

Model Availability

The Blazer is available in both front-wheel drive and four-wheel drive configurations. The F-Pace doesn’t offer a two-wheel drive configuration.

Recommendations

The Chevrolet Blazer outsold the Jaguar F-Pace by over 14 to one during 2024.
