2016 chevrolet trax ls12/5/2023 ![]() ![]() The Trax features the corporate dual cockpit styling of Chevrolet, albeit with a practical, upright, utilitarian layout and gauges that are nearly identical to those of the Sonic. However, the rear license plate surround and mirror trim on the base LS model is body-colored. The lack of roof rails, which are a regular feature on all the other trims, and brightwork along the sides of base models contribute to their cheap appearance. The LTZ and LT variants, which come with 16 or 18-inch alloy wheels, respectively, are the only ones for buyers opting for larger, more expensive wheels. The LS Base model is equipped with steel wheels and plastic wheel coverings because it is designed for car buyers on a tight budget. Manufacturers chose to take things easy with the Chevy offering in comparison to more obviously styled rivals like the Mini Countryman, Jeep Renegade, as well as Nissan Juke.

The Chevrolet Trax is also limited in its transmission offering only a 6 speed automatic to US buyers though they could choose between front-wheel or four-wheel-drive. To make up for this the car did come with Sirius satellite radio and OnStar for navigation and safety reasons in the US region. This was a bit of a shot in the foot for the Trax as it made it less of a “utility” vehicle. ![]() The American market had only one choice of engine, a 1.4-liter turbo that meant the SUV was not appropriate for towing. It wasn’t until 2015 that the SUV would become available in the USA but faced stiff competition right away from the Jeep Renegade and Buick Encore. Originally only sold outside of North America, the Trax quickly gained customers and so far has exceeded the sales of the previous year every year.
