Camaro smacked by a Blazer?

Owner of WildHammerMotorsports sent this to my wife's Facebook page. Looks better than the 2019 Camaro in my opinion.

This should have been the 2019.

I like it because Chevy needed a mid-sized crossover, but they shouldn't have called it a Blazer. To me a Blazer should have been a Colorado based SUV with off-road capability. Not a grocery getting crossover. Now, nothing wrong with a grocery-getting crossover, and this looks like a nice one (glad to see you can still get an N/A V6 instead of another 2.0L turbo I4), but Blazer means off-road to me...

That sounds more "off road" than "Blazer."

Okay, so it's a crossover for folks that wear suit jackets with pants that don't match.

I don't like it. I mean I like the design, but blazer to me is RWD. none of this cross between Traverse and Equinox. I do like the interior though.

I think the front end of the Blazer belongs on the 2019 Camaro and vice versa.

I had assumed that the Camaro needed that black bar as a bumper to meet safety requirements. If that's not the case, I have no idea why it's there, as that photoshop looks way better.

Yeah the photoshop rendering is much better.

Wow! That looks so much better than the one on the '19 SS.

You know something, maybe some head designer accidentally switched front ends when those two vehicles were in development?

The bowtie emblem being attached to the bumper midway down the grill opening is something I'd expect the Blazer to have, not the Camaro.
