2019 Chevrolet Trax review: Our expert's take

What Is the 2019 Chevrolet Trax?

The 2019 Chevrolet Trax is a subcompact crossover SUV that can seat up to five people. It's powered by a 138-horsepower, turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine that drives a six-speed automatic transmission. Front- and all-wheel-drive models are available. Competitors include the Kia Soul, Mazda CX-3 and Honda HR-V.

What's New on the 2019 Chevrolet Trax?

There are no significant changes this year.

What Features in the 2019 Chevrolet Trax Are Most Important?

The standard 7-inch touchscreen multimedia system includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone connectivity, and 4G LTE connectivity with a Wi-Fi hot spot (data subscription required after initial trial period) can help you stay connected on the go. A 60/40-split folding backseat and a fold-flat front passenger seat enable the Trax to carry items up to 8 feet long inside the cabin. Available active safety features include blind spot warning with rear cross-traffic alert, forward collision warning and lane departure warning.

Should I Buy the 2019 Chevrolet Trax?

The Trax offers good visibility, a tall seating position and it rides well, but you have to put up with its weak, noisy engine. A lack of advanced safety features on lower trim levels isn't great, either.
