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.
Pros Striking exterior design Spacious and high-quality interior Excellent ride comfort Refined engine and gearbox
Cons No sub-$40,000 variant Driving position compromises Expensive servicing Facelifted 3008 coming in early 2021
Tangibly more practical and interesting than a 308, this is SUVs done properly.
Pros Uncommonly interesting interior, neat handling Refined engine and gearbox
Cons Some detail missteps beneath the surface
Crossover maxes out on style, practicality and economy.
Pros Sharp and striking exterior styling Slick, distinctive interior design Punchy 1.2-litre petrol, 1.5-litre diesel and hybrid engines
Cons Automatic gearboxes sap power Suspension could be more comfortable Range-topping engines underwhelming
