It cannot be equipped with automatic emergency braking at any price. It would be easier to forgive the Trax for the cost of its higher trim levels if it was offered with more tech, especially in the safety department, but sadly the Premier’s advanced safety features are limited to forward-collision warnings. Buick’s variant, the Encore, is a little nicer inside (and consequently more expensive) but just as tight of a fit. The small Trax is maneuverable enough, especially in the city, but its highway stability suffers thanks to its short wheelbase and high center of gravity.Ĭompared to subcompact cars, the Trax offers a higher seating position and thus better views of the road, but the view of the inside is a bit drab. With all-wheel drive, it maxes out at a 29-mpg highway EPA rating. While it may be small, it’s still ostensibly an SUV, and its fuel economy suffers as a result. All versions are powered by a 1.4-liter turbo-4 paired to a 6-speed automatic. It still comes in three variants (LS, LT and Premier) available in front- or all-wheel drive. At its base price of just $22,295 (including $995 for destination), it’s a reasonably decent buy.Ĭhevrolet didn’t make many changes to the Trax for the 2020 model year. Like many Chevrolets, a loaded-up Trax starts to lose its luster compared to similarly positioned competitors. The Trax earns most of its points on value alone, and even that is questionable once you start adding on options.
