Pros Striking looks Decent passenger space Hybrid version for the environmentally conscious
Cons Limited engine choice Some rivals ride better Infotainment system isn’t class-leading

Cons No active safety systems available Not really an SUV Ride can be a little crashy
Pros Looks superb, doesn’t use much fuel, low prices, chirpy character.
Cons The ride’s pretty unsophisticated… and that’s about it
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

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
