2021 Chevrolet Trax

The 2021 Trax is 13.9-feet long and weighs between 3,124 to 3,280 pounds depending on which configuration you select. The small body offers generous space, making it an ideal vehicle for drivers who need to transport cargo and commute in the city.

The Trax comes in two trim levels: LS and LT. The base Trax LS offers a simple and stylish exterior design, including a sweeping profile and streamlined grille. Car buyers who upgrade to the Trax LT receive all of this plus heated side mirrors, LED running lights, roof rails, tinted rear windows

No matter which trim level you choose, the 2021 Chevrolet Trax is powered by a 1.4-liter turbocharged inline-four engine. This engine is paired with a responsive and easy-to-use six-speed automatic transmission. The 1.4-liter engine can produce up to 138 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque.

The 2021 Trax comes standard with front-wheel drive, but all-wheel drive is available as an upgrade. This vehicle is perfect for city driving, as it has sufficient power and easy maneuvering for navigating around tight city streets. It also has appealing gas mileage. With front-wheel drive, the Chevy Trax earns an EPA-estimated 26 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway. If you opt for all-wheel drive, the Trax earns 24 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway.

Climb into the cabin of the 2021 Trax and you're greeted by seating for up to five passengers with cloth upholstery. The base Trax LS offers 60/40 split-folding rear seats. When upgrading to the LT trim level, you'll get faux-leather upholstery. The LT also offers heated front seats. Consider the convenience package to additionally receive a leather-wrapped steering wheel, push-button start, keyless passive entry, and a six-way power-adjustable driver's seat.

The Chevrolet Trax offers 18.7 cubic feet of storage space behind the second row of seating. To open up the cabin for more interior space, the rear seats can be folded flat for 48.4 cubic feet of space. Even the front passenger seat can fold down for maximum interior cargo space.

This small SUV comes standard with a 7-inch touch-screen infotainment system on the dashboard and in-car Wi-Fi. The 4G LTE Wi-Fi hot spot can provide passengers with fast internet access on their laptops, tablets, and phones. Up to seven devices can connect to this subscription system (which has a free trial period).

The Trax comes standard with a rearview camera. For more driver-assist safety technologies, consider upgrading the vehicle. When doing so, you receive rear parking sensors, rear-cross traffic alert, and blind-spot monitoring.
