Looking at the Chevrolet Trax’s sporty and stylish exterior and equally attractive interior, one might assume that the compact crossover comes at a premium price to match. It’s actually one of the most affordable vehicles in Chevrolet’s lineup, but that doesn’t mean it skimps out on performance and creature comforts. Here’s a quick introduction to the all-new 2024 Chevy Trax!

Power and Handling
Under the hood of every Trax, you’ll find a dependable 1.2L Ecotec turbo inline-3 engine that puts out 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque—a great match for the vehicle’s low curb weight of around 3,000 pounds. There’s plenty of get-up-and-go at any speed thanks to the engine’s performance and a smooth, responsive 6-speed automatic transmission, which also helps the SUV achieve an impressive EPA-rated fuel economy of 32 highway MPG.
During cornering, the Trax is composed and easy to handle. That’s because its well-tuned MacPherson strut front suspension and compound crank rear suspension greatly reduce body roll. Along with that solid handling, the vehicle provides a comfortable riding experience as the suspension does an excellent job at absorbing bumps in the road.
Passenger Cabin
Adding more to its great value, the Trax has a well-designed and well-crafted interior that looks sophisticated and offers plenty of amenities. A standard air filtration system and active noise cancellation technology that uses in-cabin microphones to eliminate excessive noise mean that the cabin remains peaceful and cozy for the whole trip. Buyers can add heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, wireless charging, and all-weather floor mats.
Along with these features, this iteration of the Trax has also increased the size of its cabin, allowing for an impressive amount of legroom at 38.7 inches and 54.1 cubic feet of cargo space when the 60/40 split-folding rear seats are down. An available collapsible cargo area organizer features multiple storage compartments that keep your smaller items more secure, especially with the help of tie-down straps.
Infotainment System
While LS and 1RS models are equipped with an 8-inch infotainment HD touchscreen, the LT, 2RS, and Activ trims come with a larger 11-inch display. Whichever version you get, it will support wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, a mobile Wi-Fi hotspot, and Bluetooth audio streaming. Hours of listening entertainment are available with SiriusXM satellite radio.
Safety and Driver Assists
A forward collision warning system, lane keeping with lane departure alerts, and a rear seat reminder all come standard on the Trax. It also offers blind spot and rear cross-traffic monitoring. Parents can rest easier when their teens are driving since the vehicle features Chevy’s Teen Driver system. It provides driving habit reports, ensures that safety features are engaged, and keeps the vehicle from moving unless the front seat belts are buckled.
Despite its low price point, the Chevrolet Trax is full of style and practicality! Test drive the latest model at Jennings Chevrolet today!
