The 2021 Chevrolet Trax's #13 ranking is based on its score within the Subcompact SUVs category. Currently the Chevrolet Trax has a score of 6.7 out of 10, which is based on our evaluation of 44 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.
Pros Solid list of standard infotainment features Easy to maneuver
Cons Weak engine Rigid ride Seats could use more support
If you need a spacious new vehicle for the tiniest of parking spaces (and budgets), the Trax is an acceptable but mediocre contender.
Pros Affordable price Bigger inside than it looks All-wheel drive is available New car smell (and warranty)
Cons Dull driving experience Lacks some key safety features Muddled styling and plain look Inexpensive, but not a bargain
The Trax loses its top-spec Premier trim for 2021, leaving the LS and LT models as the last remaining offerings. The previously available Sun and Sound package, the optional power sunroof, available Bose stereo system, and two-tone Jet Black and Brandy interior theme have also been deleted.
Pros Cheap and cheerful, agreeable ride and handling, minimal blind spots.
Cons Poky acceleration, plasticky interior pieces, lacks most modern features.
A proper Top Gear hero. Seriously over-delivers on the underpromising price..
Pros Cheap, but also value. Looks good. Is very capable
Cons Lacks safety kit; so slow that this might not actually matter
Pros Very cheap to buy Roomy cabin Efficient engines
Cons Feels pretty basic inside Doesn't handle all that well Disappointing safety score
