Pros Appealing passenger space for its size Plenty of features for the price
Cons Ride quality is choppy on the freeway Slow acceleration from the underpowered engine Less cargo space than some rivals Fuel economy falls short for the class
There's no shortage of small SUVs in the subcompact class and, among them, the 2020 Chevrolet Trax is one of the least compelling. Yes, it's comfortable and spacious, especially in regard to headroom. It stops, goes, and turns. And it comes standard with a healthy load of features, including touchscreen navigation and a Wi-Fi hotspot. But its weak turbocharged engine delivers painfully slow acceleration and its chintzy cabin materials and uninspired design, both inside and out, make for rental-car ambience.
Pros Excellent outward visibility, plentiful standard infotainment features, capable enough handling.
Cons Anemic engine, rental-car interior trappings, minimal active-safety tech.
Range-topping MG SUV big on value, and now available as a plug-in hybrid.
PROS Roomy and practical interior Comfortable seats and ride Well equipped with loads of kit Great value for money
CONS Unresponsive, noisy engine Uninspiring handling Some hard interior plastics Less than amazing finance deals
PROS Powerful and engaging driveline Heaps of standard kit Australia's cheapest PHEV SUV
CONS Fuel figure on test far from claim Misses out on seven-year warranty Benefits may be misconstrued
PROS Smooth power delivery Cheaper and better-equipped than rivals Spacious interior
CONS Shorter warranty than other HS models Heavy steering Infotainment set-up needs some finessing
