Power & Handling

One of the best aspects about the 2021 Trax is the fact that it comes standard with one reliable engine. There doesn’t need to be any other engines because this one gets it right the first time. The engine itself is a turbocharged 1.4-liter 4-cylinder, which can create around 148 pound-feet of torque and 138 horsepower. Paired up with this engine is a six-speed automatic transmission, and either front- or all-wheel drive, depending on your specific needs. You will even be able to get up to 31 miles per gallon on the highway with the Trax!

Features & Design

After checking out the power and fuel economy that you can find with the Chevy Trax, it’s time to consider the features that you will be able to choose from. Chevy has always done an excellent job in giving customers exactly what they are searching for. Standard features with this SUV include 60/40-split/fold rear seats, a folding front-passenger seat, single-zone air conditioning, Apple CarPlay, a seven-inch touchscreen, Android Auto, and 4G LTE Wi-Fi. Optional features include tinted rear windows, cruise control, remote start, LED daytime running lights, and leatherette upholstery.
