The optional, performance-oriented all-wheel drive system is meant to give TrailBlazer SS impressive on-road grip and enhanced launch feel. The always-engaged system uses a Torsen center-differential to split torque between the front and rear wheels. It is a torque-bias system that detects low traction at one axle and directs more torque to the other when needed; it is indeed capable of changing the normal 67-percent rear-axle torque bias up to 45/55 (front/rear) or 25/75 (front/rear), depending on the road conditions.
Along with the mesh grille and other additions to its look, has actually lost a couple of styling touches in order to look sportier. It's been stripped of body side moldings, the roof rack and other cladding that adds ''visual weight'' to the vehicle.
The rear pillars are blacked-out, blending with the tinted glass for a more integrated, wraparound style. Also, the mirrors, door handles and grille cross bar are all painted body color, which includes black, white, silver and blue.
As a result of all this work, Dewar believes that the Chevrolet TrailBlazer SS will have a look that matches its ability, and vice-versa.
