2025 Highlander vs 2025 Blazer

At Thornhill Toyota in Chapmanville, WV, we know that picking the right midsize SUV means finding something that can handle real life – school drop-offs, mountain getaways, and everything in between. That’s where the 2025 Toyota Highlander stands out. With three rows of seating, smart storage, and an available hybrid powertrain, it’s made for West Virginia families who need flexibility and comfort. While the 2025 Chevy Blazer brings a sportier vibe, the Highlander delivers the everyday versatility our customers count on.

Interior Comparison

The Highlander is all about smart space. It comes standard with three rows and can seat up to eight passengers – great for families, carpooling, or weekend getaways. Thoughtful touches like available second-row captain’s chairs, power-folding third-row seats, ambient lighting, and tri-zone climate control make every ride feel first-class. Plus, with up to 84.3 cubic feet of cargo room, you’ve got all the flexibility you need to haul sports gear, groceries, or camping supplies.

The Blazer looks sleek inside, but only fits five. It’s stylish and cleanly designed, but with a max cargo capacity of 64.2 cubic feet, it can’t match the Highlander’s passenger or storage flexibility.

Power & Performance

The Highlander doesn’t just handle everyday drives – it adapts. Its turbocharged 2.4-liter engine delivers a smooth balance of power and fuel economy, while the available hybrid model makes it a top choice for saving money at the pump. Plus, available all-wheel drive with Multi-Terrain Select helps you tackle rain, snow, or gravel with confidence – perfect for mountain roads around Chapmanville.

The Blazer feels athletic behind the wheel and offers an available V6 for extra punch. However, AWD availability depends on the trim, and it lacks a hybrid option to match the Highlander’s fuel-sipping capabilities.
