Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The 2019 Chevrolet Trax makes a compelling used car alternative, but rivals do many things better.

Pros
Reasonable base price
Roomier inside than it looks
Optional AWD
New car smell

Cons
Lackluster to drive
Short on safety gear
Base LS model is truly plain
Anonymous styling
Expensive when loaded up

The 2019 Chevy Trax is available in three trim levels: LS, LT and Premier. The base LS trim has enough standard equipment not to feel stripped down, but the LT adds more practical features and has access to several option packages. The Premier trim not only gets interior upgrades, but it also has added active safety features.

Pros
Offers appealing passenger space for its size
Plenty of features for the price

Cons
Fuel economy falls short for the class
Less cargo space than some rivals
Slow acceleration from the underpowered engine
Ride quality is choppy on the freeway

By: 
edmunds.com

The 2019 Chevrolet Trax ranked #13 in Subcompact SUVs. Currently the Chevrolet Trax has a score of 7.2 out of 10 which is based on our evaluation of 45 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
User-friendly infotainment system
Spacious, comfortable seats

Cons
Limited engine power
Jostling ride
Subpar fuel economy ratings
Many rivals have more cargo space

The T-Roc may be among the most significant of many new Volkswagen models, even if it won’t be sold in the United States in the foreseeable future. It’s a new crossover that is roughly the same size as the Golf and is based on the same MQB architecture. For now, at least, the Golf will remain the mainstay of the brand’s lineup, but those within the company who are concerned with sales-growth rates are far more interested in the crossover-SUV segment nearly everywhere on the globe.

Pros
Golf-like driving dynamics,
decent packaging,
adventurous design (for VW).

Cons
Only average interior quality,
firm ride,
we likely won’t get it.

The T-Roc is a small family car that blends the high driving position and big boot of an SUV with the economical engines from a conventional small car. It is quite expensive, however…

Pros
More comfortable than alternatives
Well equipped as standard
Decent range of engines

Cons
Cheap-feeling interior plastics
Alternatives are cheaper
Back seats could be more spacious

By:

The Volkswagen T-Roc looks good, drives well and offers plenty of space, but it's pricey and some rivals have a nicer interior.

Pros
Easy to personalise
Good to drive
Stylish

Cons
Expensive
Interior quality issues
Rivals offer better value
