2024 Chevrolet Trax

The redesigned Trax is almost a foot longer than its predecessor. It is now one of the biggest SUVs in a class that includes the Kia Seltos and Nissan Kicks. The only available powerplant is a 1.2-liter three-cylinder turbo engine and a six-speed automatic transmission that sends power to the front wheels. All-wheel drive is not available. The exterior is modeled on the Blazer, with a prominent grille and slim LED daytime running lights. The tidy interior is roomier than in the previous Trax and features straightforward climate controls and a traditional shift lever. The new Trax finally gets standard AEB with pedestrian detection. BSW and RCTW are optional.

Brand context

About Chevrolet

<p>Once a purveyor of all things automotive, Chevrolet has shifted its focus toward SUVs and pickup trucks, with the supercar-like Corvette being a notable exception. It has been pioneering with electric vehicles, and it continues to introduce new EVs. Most models have roomy interiors, easy-to-use controls, and good array of standard safety and convenience technology. Several models, however, have poor visibility and lack steering agility. Many Chevrolets rate average or below average for reliability in CR’s rankings, resulting in few carrying our recommendation. The Suburban and Tahoe can keep three rows of passengers comfortable within their enormous cabins. The Silverado pickup truck competes with the best-selling Ford F-150 and Ram 1500 by balancing interior comfort with towing and cargo capability. With some exceptions, used Chevrolets can have reliability issues, but are often less expensive to maintain and repair than competitors.</p>
