2018 CHEVROLET TRAX LT SPORT UTILITY 4D DRIVER
(The Premier is the heaviest trim level, weighing 3,340 pounds the lightest is 3,048 pounds.) The I-4 Chevrolet Trax is peppy enough to get around traffic fine with just a driver onboard. The 138-horsepower, turbocharged 1.4-liter inline-4 cylinder strained to haul three men in a top-level Premier with AWD. The Trax continues to drive confidently for its small footprint, but its engine remains loud and wheezy, and its short wheelbase makes for a bumpy ride over rough pavement. Ironically, the Trax’s driving experience hasn’t changed at all for better or for worse, the refresh included no mechanical changes. I spent a day testing the updated Chevrolet Trax in and around downtown Chicago. Compare the Trax’s specs with its competitors here.

The Chevrolet Trax was on sale globally well before it debuted in the U.S., so it already looked dated when it landed stateside as a 2015 model. Chevrolet addressed former failing areas, such as interior quality and advanced safety technology, and its new multimedia offering shoots the Trax to the top of the class in smartphone integration. In one of ’s multi-car comparisons in which we tested the old Trax against its class, it placed dead last.įor 2017, Chevrolet’s smallest SUV is updated with a new look and new features, but are there enough improvements to boost its finish? I think so. They’re high-riding hatchbacks with available all-wheel drive (AWD), including the Chevrolet Trax, 2017 Honda HR-V, 2017 Jeep Renegade and 2017 Subaru Crosstrek, among many others. The Chevrolet Trax is part of an entirely new class of vehicles that didn’t exist a few years ago: subcompact SUVs.
