Not pleased

Have three lease and wish I could get out of it. I'm 79 years old and have a lot of miles racked up as a salesman. No comfort, no hp, whole vehicle is cheaply manufactured. Because of age and economic reasons only reason for my purchase. Wow what a mistake! Take my advice do a 180 before purchasing this peace of junk. Sorry GM I have trusted you for too long.

Impressively peppy for a 1.4L engine

Easy to get in and out of. Great view of the road. Averaging 31-34 mpg combined, I changed to a K&N filter at 20K.

Cool Car

This car is very nice but the interior styling could use some upgrades the touch screen radio is very simple and needs to be upgraded it delivers a very comfortable ride and when you are driving the ride is so smooth that you barley notice that your going to fast until you look down one time we got up to almost 100 mph on the interstate because you cant feel it going that fast so you slowly have to ease it back down other than what has been mentioned its a fairly nice car.

Average Test Drive

Am not a fan- the outside styling was very dated. The take-off was very slow and it took some time to get speed up. The inside was very plain, although comfortable. The only thing that caught my attention was the huge touch screen computer and large storage/trunk area.

Love it!

Love the size of this car. Great for city driving and small commutes. Love that it is all wheel drive and it has 18" wheels. Very good on gas.

Not worth the price

Not enough power, suppose to be a turbo. Brakes showed wear after only 5 months. Only worth $10,000 if that much

transportation

This vehicle meets my needs. It's very comfy and I love the two toned Black/Brown interior and have received quite a few compliments on that as well as comfort. Excellent gas mileage and smoothness on the highway as well as local driving. It also has great visability.

Affordable, nice, compact SUV

The AWD 2016 Trax LTZ is a fuel efficient, affordable SUV. The front seats are great for someone taller and the backseat is surprisingly comfortable. The interior trim feels a little cheap, but it does have a touch-screen stereo and back-up camera. It fits into compact car spaces easily and is really easy to get in and out of. While it does not feel like driving a luxury SUV, it is comfortable and a good value.
