Now, it is important to note the Chevy Trax is small, so while it may be easy to park, your passengers will find very little wiggle room. That said, the Chevy Trax manages to hold its own, offering an interior driving experience that is to be expected. The 2019 Chevy Trax isn’t a luxury vehicle, so we wouldn’t expect features like leather seating, power-adjustable seating, or a particularly expansive infotainment screen. This is hardly a bad thing either, as those who would enjoy vehicles like the Chevy Trax are typically less likely to be hitching boats or oversized trailers but might find themselves towing some lighter weight materials like a few bicycles or some large boxes. Across the board, compact SUVs have offered up a less-than-stellar towing performance, so in a way, we weren’t expecting a lot from the Chevy Trax. Although we aren’t necessarily complaining, a low-bar has been set in terms of towing with a compact SUV. While you’ll find AWD options across the LS, LT and Premier trim options the Chevy Trax would have certainly benefited from having a more robust 4-cylinder option.

Out of three different trim options, there isn’t a single configuration that offers an upgrade to engine power. That leads to the other disappointing thing about the Chevy Trax. There’s nothing amazing to write home about here as the driving experience the Chevy Trax provides meets the mark. The 4-cylinder engine is partnered by a 6-speed automatic transmission that meets expectations.

While it may never outpace something like the hybrid Toyota RAV4, it still holds its own against other cars within a similar range. In the past SUVs were notorious for sucking down gas, the 2019 Chevy Trax manages its fuel intake quite well, earning an EPA-rated 26 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway.

While this may seem a little underpowered at first, Chevy went this route in order to optimize fuel economy. The latest Chevy Trax is equipped with a 1.4-liter 4-cylinder engine that promises 138 horsepower and 148 lb-ft worth of torque. The 2019 Chevy Trax manages to pull things off in terms of performance.

As a result, drivers end up with punchy 4-cylinder engines that can either deliver the promise or fall flat on its face. When it comes to performance for compact SUVs, manufacturers have had to strike a kind of balance between fuel efficiency and horsepower. There doesn’t seem to be any loose ends, and no off-putting choices, it’s a classic modern compact SUV, simple as that. If there is one way to describe the exterior of the 2019 Chevy Trax, it would be polished. Then again, with a starting asking price of $21,300 MSRP, there is only so much we can expect from the Chevy Trax. For some, this can be appealing, lending for plenty of personalization, although others might find the look to be a little lackluster.

On the one hand, the look is minimalistic, offering a style that is similar to a blank canvas. The Chevy Trax sits somewhere in the middle. While some vehicles, like the Jeep Renegade, manage to take a good stab at unique exterior design, other manufacturers like Ford, seem to drop the ball. Styling for compact SUVs has been something of a challenge. While the latest Chevy Trax may offer plenty of curb appeal, how does it stack up against competitor vehicles like the Ford EcoSport or the Honda CR-V? The Level of Curb Appeal Not too flashy, with just enough modern features to make it worth the sticker price, the 2019 Chevy Trax joins the league of other compact SUVs that have dramatically changed the market. Introducing the 2019 Chevy Trax, a compact SUV that is everything you can and should expect from the modern SUV driving experience.

Many manufacturers have developed their own line of compact SUVs, from Jeep to Honda, and now Chevy. Not only do these vehicles offer plenty of worthwhile utility, but they also feature all of the benefits of a sedan but in a much larger, much more practical package. The age of the sedan has passed, today, manufacturers and drivers everywhere turn towards the new, affordable, and fuel-efficient compact SUV.
