You can also choose from ten exterior color options: Cyber Orange, Area 51, Shadow Black, Alto Blue, Rapid Red, Cactus Gray, Carbonized Gray, Iconic Silver, Oxford White, and Kodiak Brown. There are plenty of duo-tone colors for the Bronco Sport, Ford just doesn't designate that within the color nameplates.

The 2021 Chevy Trailblazer dimensions measure 174″ L x 71″ W x 65-66″ H, but you only have access to nine exterior paint colors.

2021 Ford Bronco Sport Engines & Powertrain
The Bronco horsepower far exceeds what you get with a Trailblazer. Choose from the base 1.5-liter turbo EcoBoost three-cylinder pumping out 181 horsepower or the 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder that produces 245 horsepower. Both of these come with a smooth-shifting eight-speed automatic transmission.
2021 Chevy Trailblazer Engines & Powertrain
The new Trailblazer lacks power with the standard 137-horsepower 1.2-liter turbo-three or the optional 155-horsepower 1.3-liter turbo-three. Owners can also choose between a CVT and nine-speed automatic transmission.
2021 Bronco Sport Off-Road Capability
The 2021 Ford Bronco Sport has a ground clearance of 7.8-inches. However, what sets this model apart is the immense amount of available off-road equipment. You can utilize the twin-tube hydraulic gas-pressurized shocks, advanced 4x4 system with twin-clutch RDU, an off-road suspension, 180-degree camera, RSC (Roll Stability Control), and AdvanceTrac.
2021 Chevy Trailblazer Off-Road Capability
You don't want to take a stock Trailblazer off-road. While Trailblazer ground clearance measures eight inches and all-wheel-drive is available, this Chevy SUV isn't geared for off-road adventures. It's best to keep this model on the paved roads. Don't expect to blaze any trails in the Chevy Trailblazer.

New Ford Bronco Sport or Chevrolet Trailblazer? Here's Why You Should Get the Bronco Sport.
The only aspect that the new Chevy Trailblazer has going for
it is the price, but you get what you pay for in a sense. The engines are
underpowered, and there isn't enough off-road equipment to actually help it
blaze a trail. There isn't even much competition to be had with the Chevy
Trailblazer RS model. If you want the ultimate off-road capability, plenty of
power, and lots of features, the new Ford Bronco Sport, or Baby Bronco as it's
called, is perfect for you.
