The Chevrolet S10 Blazer, produced from 1973 to 1991, represents a pivotal moment in the evolution of the compact SUV. Born out of the burgeoning demand for versatile and fuel-efficient vehicles in the wake of the 1970s oil crisis, the S10 Blazer capitalized on the popularity of the Chevrolet Blazer nameplate while introducing a smaller, more manageable platform. The S10 Blazer, however, departed from the traditional full-size Blazer by embracing a unibody construction, rather than the body-on-frame design of its larger sibling. This shift allowed for a more refined ride and improved handling, qualities highly desirable for everyday driving. While retaining the rugged appeal of the Blazer lineage, the S10 Blazer offered a more affordable and accessible option for those seeking a capable off-roader and versatile daily driver.

Powertrain options for the S10 Blazer spanned a range of gasoline engines, offering different levels of performance and fuel efficiency. The base engine was the 2.5-liter Iron Duke inline-four, providing adequate power for city driving, and was paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Higher-trim levels featured the 2.8-liter V6, providing a significant increase in power and torque, particularly for highway driving and towing. Several transmission options were available, including the three-speed automatic and the five-speed manual. The S10 Blazer's robust construction and diverse engine offerings made it capable of tackling various terrains and situations, from navigating city streets to venturing off-road. The S10 Blazer's versatility and practicality resonated with customers, establishing itself as a popular choice among those seeking a reliable and capable compact SUV.
