The 2018 Chevrolet Trax, Chevy’s smallest utility vehicle, is straightforward: it’s plain on the outside but practical inside, not particularly fast but adequately fuel-efficient.
Pros Versatile, spacious interior Seats four actual adults Does well in safety tests AWD at any trim level Reasonable pricing
Cons Generic styling Acceleration lacking Base LS model is truly plain
The 2018 Chevrolet Trax's mundane cabin and ho-hum performance place it solidly in the bottom half of our subcompact SUV rankings. Most of its competition is better in one or both of these areas.
Pros Good maneuverability Supportive seats
Cons Weak engine Low-rent interior Limited small-item storage
The MG GS is the brand’s first SUV, built to rival the Nissan Qashqai, Renault Kadjar and Vauxhall Mokka X. The MG costs less than all those models and is also a little bigger so, in terms of value for money, it’s off to a flying start.
Pros Decent looks Punchy engine Low price
Cons Cheap feeling cabin Firm ride Small boot
