Even the base black-clothing upholstery is accented with blue stitching, relieving the grimness. Inside, the Chevy Trax is straightforward if a little heavy on the black plastic. That LS base model, however, is remarkably plain, standing out not only for its lack of chrome trim and econocar black-plastic door mirrors, but also for its steel wheels hidden by silver plastic wheel covers. All but the base model get LED running lights and taillights.
#2018 CHEVY TRAX UPDATE#
Now in its fourth model year, the Trax benefited from a styling update last year that brought the front end into line with newer Chevy models, sharpening the narrow upper grille between the swept-back headlights and making the lower opening larger. The Trax is straightforward and lacks any of the flair of competitors like the Jeep Renegade, Mazda CX-3, or Mini Cooper Countryman. While the Trax shares underpinnings and even its front doors with the more premium Buick Encore, you’d never know it the two vehicles have distinctly different styling. It doesn’t have a third window behind the rear door, and that skews the balance toward hatchback despite the tall stance. The basic shape of the 2018 Chevrolet Trax falls between a tall hatchback and a short SUV. Its weak spot is performance-it’s slow-and fuel economy that’s not quite up to the standard of the best subcompact SUVs. The 2018 Trax’s ratings are average for design, and quality and comfort. Overall, we give the Trax 5.7 out of 10 available points, a respectable rating though lower than the top-rated competitors in the segment. With the Trax, Chevy offers a high-riding, straightforward, practical five-door vehicle with optional all-wheel drive but only a single powertrain. In the smallest crossover segment, most entries strive for stylistic flair, while Chevy takes the opposite tack. The Trax is offered in three trim levels: base LS, mid-level LT, and top-of-the-line Premier. You can think of the Trax either as a small SUV or a tall hatchback, and it makes up for a lack of flash with good value for money.
The Equinox and Traverse crossovers sit above it in the lineup. The 2018 Chevrolet Trax is the smallest utility vehicle offered by Chevy.
