Talking Cars #266: Used Cars for Teens, Chevrolet Trailblazer

Consumer Reports has no financial relationship with advertisers on this site.

Main theme: We discuss the first-ever team effort between Consumer Reports and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety to come up with a list of recommended safe, reliable, and affordable used vehicles for teenage drivers. We talk about which cars on the list were some of our favorites, as well as what we drove during our teenage years.

Driven this week: 2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer
