Just purchased the All Wheel Drive version

I love this vehicle, I haven't owned it very long, but it is comfortable and rides well. It sits high enough to avoid bumps, but low enough to get out of easily. The only concern I have is that it doesn't get good gas mileage.

Cute little car, like the extras.

I really like but, I'm having trouble seeing out the back and side mirrors for changing lanes. Trouble with keeping it between the lines. But I have only had it a week and only drove it twice.

chevy trax

mind you i've only had the vehicle for 2 weeks...i like the design, performance, reliability and comfort. it is larger than the spark I traded in, so that's an immediate improvement. too much use of modern day tech's would be my only bad comment (but that is going to apply to any new car these days) I haven't taken a long trip yet so I will the right to update. you'll notice that value for the money got a negative...that is for the dealership and their advertising deceptions. (ad said 2020 trax for 13941 but there were too many hoops to jump to get that price...at that price it would have been a real good value. I actually paid about 22000 before finance charges) I do like the car.

Love the vehicle

So far so good. Reliability TBD. Had the first year model with lots of issues. But still loved the car. Think it was a lemon. Have been told many times this is a very reliable vehicle.. Fun to drive, handles nice, easy to park and comfortable. New one is the Premier with all the options, new safety features, heated leather seats, premium sound and sunroof.

Very pleased overall with the purchase of this veh

This car meets all of my needs and has met expectations, and is awesome on fuel consumption and fuel cost. I would recommend purchasing this vehicle if you are looking for a nice smaller suv.

My first SUV

This is my first SUV. I was a Chevy Cruze fan, but GM quit making the car and a couple other of their models like the other big car companies did. The Cruze was considered a compact, so insurance wise it was less expensive to drive VS a mid size. Anyway, the Trax basically "replaced" the Cruze. This vehicle drives very well and is quiet inside. Mileage so far is below the Cruze mileage, but I am still in the break in period. The Cruze averaged 32-35 MPG, and the Trax is around 28-29 MPG right now. I know there was more leg room (in the back seat) and trunk space in the Cruze. The Trax has a large rear door that lifts up enough so I do not have to duck to avoid hitting my head. I am 5'10" tall. When you lift up the rear deck platform, the spare is underneath that. Both rear seats and the front passenger seat fold down for extra storage space. The Trax is obviously higher off of the ground than the Cruze, so that has taken a little getting used to stepping up and stepping out of the car. The Trax is shorter (but higher) than the Cruze was, so that is why leg room in the rear seat is tighter in the Trax. The front passenger seat has an indentation in the back of the seat so a passenger in the rear behind that seat has a little more leg space. Overall a nice looking, quiet riding car with plenty of room up front. Also, there is NO storage console behind the shifter between the front seats to store stuff. Just a cup holder and pull down arm rest for the driver, so I miss that also which every regular, non SUV vehicle has. The pull down is very narrow, so my right arm does not rest well on that, but it is something I will have to get used to as time goes on with this SUV. I could have gone to a Chevy Malibu (mid size VS compact car) which is still being made, but the budget would not allow that. This is really NOT a family car, but plenty for me.

My First Chevrolet

Great vehicle, great price. I researched and drove so many different cars that were similar in size and performance and finally chose the Chevy Trax. Driving is easy and comfortable. Performance is what you would expect from such a small engine but I am not complaining. Gas mileage is also what I expected but again I am not complaining. Choose the All Wheel Drive to better handle the snowy conditions up north. It's smaller inside and out than my last vehicle (Outlander Sport) but that was not a deal breaker. I am satisfied with my purchase and am glad for my decision.

Small but zippy to drive

I was used to a bigger SUV but don't let the smaller size fool you. It's all I need and it's fun to drive and get around.

Love my new Trax

The car drives awesome. It seems a little larger than my 2017 Trax...very smooth ride. Interior is very nice and the sound system awesome. So I would definitely recommend this car.

An excellent vehicle -

This vehicle meets all my needs, and I'm finding it comfortable and easy to handle. There also is ample room for everything that I wish to have available in the vehicle.
