How to Find the Perfect Chevy for Your Budget

Are you in the market for a new Chevrolet, but searching for something that won’t break the bank? At McLarty Daniel Chevrolet, we totally get that. That’s why we’ve rounded up the best Chevy models with some of the lowest prices. From SUVs to sedans, read about these must-have vehicles that are a great find for both price and style.

2023 Chevrolet Trailblazer

Coming in below $29,000, the Trailblazer is the smaller and more affordable alternative to Chevy’s Blazer. It offers a spacious cabin, is easy to park and features modern style. It’s for the buyer looking for basic transportation without the extra fuss, offering a comfortable environment, good fuel economy and a few advanced safety technologies.

Sharp lines on the exterior mixed with luxurious materials like leather and wood trim on the interior elevate this ride for an edgy look and feel. Functionality is there, too. Trailblazer’s three rows of seating provide plenty of room for passengers and an advanced technology system makes it all worth the price. Not to mention, it’s an all-around great everyday vehicle. Basic but never boring.

According to MotorBiscuit, “the 2023 model is not only one of the best, but it’s a top affordable SUV. The 2023 Chevy Trailblazer holds this title because it delivers impressive performance and has excellent reliability scores. In addition, like the Chevrolet Trailblazer 2022, it’s a spectacular-looking SUV for the modern world.” Who wouldn’t want to drive in style for a fraction of the price?

Similarly, the 2024 Equinox EV version is priced at just $30,000 and dubbed “The Affordable Electric Crossover We’ve Been Waiting For” by CarScoops.

2023 Chevrolet Blazer

Perhaps one of the coolest things about Chevy’s iconic Blazer is just that. It’s classic, stylish and affordable. And everyone loves a good refresh. For 2023, the entire Blazer lineup received refreshed exterior styling, LED lights, a 10.2-inch infotainment touchscreen on all models and available Qi wireless phone charging among other enhancements.

At just over $40,000, it’s definitely at the top of the budget compared to the rest of the models on this list, but it comes in cheaper than some of Chevy’s larger vehicles like the Traverse and the Tahoe. Not to mention, it’s a “quiet vehicle,” according to Consumer Reports and an article by GM Authority.

U.S. News & World Report reported, “the base 2LT model is a great choice for most shoppers. It provides a lot of bang for your buck, with convenience features like Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, a Wi-Fi hot spot and remote start, as well as driver-assistance tech such as lane-keep assist and Chevy’s Teen Driver system.”
