About the Chevrolet Trax
Combining value with versatility unlike any other vehicle in its class, the bold Chevrolet Trax is an attractive option for drivers with a thirst for adventure. Instantly recognizable with its aggressive exterior styling, the Trax is designed to help you make a memorable first impression. Its standard ECOTEC 1.2L Turbo engine and front-wheel drive layout deliver a blend of responsiveness and efficiency that can help you go further on a single tank of fuel.

Standard Wireless Apple CarPlay and Wireless Android Auto provide seamless access to all of your favorite multimedia features. Better still, the standard Chevy Safety Assist with six advanced safety and driver awareness technologies helps you stay one step ahead of danger behind the wheel of your Chevrolet Trax.
What the Critics Say
“But this little crossover SUV proves that budget doesn’t have to be boring. Its turbo three-cylinder generates plenty of low-end punch to keep pace on the road, and its small size and light weight make for responsive handling, not to mention easy parking on crowded streets. It’s pretty roomy on the inside, too. For a subcompact SUV, the Trax is an impressive blend of price, features and utility.” – Edmunds
“So compelling is the Trax’s affordability and execution that it is one of the first front-drive-only vehicles to ever advance to the SUV of the Year finalist round. That’s quite the accomplishment, but it’s no surprise: The Chevy’s clever packaging, cargo space, bigger screen, fantastic value, and smooth driving experience reveal a lot of success against our Of The Year criteria.” – MotorTrend
What’s New for 2025
Changes to the compact Chevrolet Trax are quite minuscule for the 2025 model year. Cypress Gray and Marina Blue Metallic are two new exterior color options that have been added to the list of choices for the 2025 Trax. Aside from those two new colors, the Chevrolet Trax carries over from the previous model year unchanged.

Styling & Performance
Featuring sophisticated looks not typically associated with an affordable subcompact SUV, the Chevrolet Trax is proof that good things do come in small packages. Shoppers can choose from the bold monochromatic look of ACTIV trim levels or the race-inspired appearance of RS models. Striking exterior color choices include Nitro Yellow Metallic, Cacti Green, and Crimson Metallic. Power comes in the form of a purpose-built 1.2-liter ECOTEC Turbo 3-cylinder engine that’s able to deliver up to an EPA-estimated 30 MPG** combined fuel economy. This means you’ll have the perfect blend of efficiency and power to get out and explore the path less traveled. A selection of five distinct trim levels makes it simple to find a Chevrolet Trax that’s perfect for your personality and lifestyle.

Versatile Interior
Both bolder and bigger than ever before, the Chevrolet Trax boasts expanded dimensions and improved versatility compared to the prior generation. In fact, the Trax now offers an 11-inch longer wheelbase, 2-inch wider track, 3 additional inches of rear legroom, and an astounding 6 additional cubic feet of cargo space thanks to its larger dimensions. Using its standard 60/40 split-folding rear seats, you can take advantage of up to 54.1 cubic feet of space when planning your next road trip. Drivers can opt for premium amenities such as Evotex seat upholstery, a power sunroof, heated front seats, and a remote start system for maximum comfort. Designers took great care to infuse a sense of spaciousness into the cabin of the Trax, highlighted by its signature round climate vents and other race-inspired cues.

Advanced Technology & Safety
Technology is yet another strong suit of the Chevrolet Trax, featuring advanced connectivity and safety features across the entire model range. All of your favorite apps and media are easily accessible thanks to standard Wireless Apple CarPlay and Wireless Android Auto smartphone integration. The centerpiece of the dashboard is the responsive touchscreen display, available in both standard 8-inch or available 11-inch diagonal sizes. An available 8-inch-diagonal driver information center provides all important drive information to help you stay alert and aware of your surroundings. Speaking of awareness, every Trax comes standard with Chevy Safety Assist featuring six advanced safety and driver awareness technologies. These include Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Forward Collision Alert, IntelliBeam auto high-beam control, and a Following Distance Indicator. You’ll always be one step ahead of danger behind the wheel of your Chevrolet Trax.
