Engine, Transmission, and Performance

Every Chevy Trax draws power from a 1.2-liter ECOTEC turbocharged engine that produces 137 horsepower and 162 pound-feet of torque. This energetic powertrain teams up with a fuel-efficient 6-speed automatic transmission powering the front wheels. Strong torque delivery at low RPM enables pleasing pickup when accelerating from a stop. In testing, the run from 0 to 60 mph took a quick 8.8 seconds.

Beyond straight-line speed, the Trax also impresses with nimble handling, recalling a traditional car. The steering feels precise and communicative while the ride remains comfortable. When braking performance calls, the pedal provides reassuring and drama-free stops. For those focused on value and utility, the Trax delivers impressive driving dynamics punching above its affordability.

Exterior Design

The new Chevrolet expands its offerings to five distinct trims: LS, 1RS, LT, 2RS, and ACTIV. The LS serves as the base model, coming equipped with essentials like 17-inch steel wheels, privacy glass, and LED headlights. The 1RS adds several RS styling cues for those wanting more aggressive looks. These include black bowtie emblems, dark grey accents, black heated mirrors, and 17-inch machined alloy wheels.

Stepping up to the LT brings body-color mirrors, silver lower inserts, roof rails, and LED daytime running lights complementing its 17-inch machined wheels. Opting for the sporty 2RS variant unlocks an even more aggressive RS appearance, thanks to blacked-out accents, badges, and 19-inch machined wheel designs.

By rounding out the lineup, the ACTIV trim targets an adventurous aesthetic with its 18-inch black wheels, ACTIV badging, black and titanium chrome exterior details, and heated mirrors. No matter which  Trax you select from our dealership near Vancouver, WA, eye-catching style comes standard to turn heads out on the road.

LED headlamps provide bright, stylish illumination, complementing the range of available 17- to 19-inch wheel designs. Four-wheel disc brakes boost stopping power and control.
