CHEVROLET TRAX 2025
CHEVROLET TRAX 2025
Chevrolet Trax is known as the least expensive yet modern and advanced car among Chevrolet’s lineup. This small crossover SUV proves that the budget doesn’t always have to be huge for modern technology and advanced features.
Front-wheel drive is the only setup available here, and it also comes with plenty of standard features and attractive styling inside and out.
It’s hard but true that it has to make some sacrifices to remain budget-friendly—its 137 HP three-cylinder engine isn’t exactly a scorcher. The interior of the car is quite spacious, and the exterior is very stylish. For a subcompact SUV, the Trax is an impressive mix of price, features, utility, and more.
