GM’s GMT330 platform spawned three variants: the well-known Chevy Blazer, GMC Jimmy, and the marginally lesser recognized of the three, the Oldsmobile Bravada. The Bravada was yet one more instance of simply how a lot of a crowded and complicated mess GMs nameplates had been. Whereas the GMC Jimmy was barely extra upscale than the Blazer, the Bravada was extra upscale and opulent than each, though a job like that ought to have gone to Buick.
Whereas it had a barely totally different entrance facia consistent with Olds design language, it was basically a Blazer/Jimmy. Oldsmobile did give the Bravada GM’s SmartTrak stability management system as a luxurious promoting level. This was a characteristic that neither the Blazer or Jimmy got here geared up with. However that was the extent of the differentiation.
The Bravada lasted three generations spanning 1990 -2004. The final gen moved to the GMT360 platform shared with the Chevy Trailblazer, Buick Rainer, Saab 9-7X, and GMC Envoy.
