When Chevrolet introduced the first-generation Trax a decade ago, the initial Chevy Trax models provided a good mix of affordable functionality for a compact SUV. The updated Trax SUVs carry on the brand's proud tradition of producing high-quality, affordable, and versatile vehicles that can go the distance with you. We believe you'll find that the new Chevrolet Trax is a versatile crossover SUV ideal for practical and leisurely driving.
Introducing the New and Versatile Trax at Eagle Chevrolet of Riverhead
The new Chevy Trax is worth considering if you are in the market for a compact SUV that lets you explore the city streets and venture off the beaten path. Whereas the first generation of this model was a subcompact SUV, the second generation is an urban crossover SUV built on the Gamma II chassis platform, making it more dynamic and exciting. The Gamma II platform delivers fuel efficiency and agile handling as part of a lightweight package that makes it easy to maneuver in tight spaces.
When you come to Eagle Chevrolet of Riverhead to see new Chevy Trax models, you will immediately notice a wider stance and more stylish exterior. Inside, you will find more space, redesigned seats, and new technology features for entertainment, comfort, and convenience. Under the hood, you will find a turbocharged 1.2-liter engine that produces 137 horsepower and 162 pound-feet of torque when revving at 2,500 RPM. The upgraded Chevy Trax is the kind of crossover SUV you can take on longer road trips when going shopping, camping, hiking, or fishing.
Five Affordable Chevy Trax Trim Levels for Your Expeditions
Your driving adventures do not have to be expensive. The Chevy Trax is one of the most affordable compact crossover SUVs you can find, and this scenario is true for all five of its trim packages:
- LS
- 1RS
- LT
- 2RS
- ACTIV
When evaluating Chevy Trax trim packages, keep in mind that some features are more functional than others when pursuing adventures. For example, all Trax models can handle light off-road conditions, but you are better off with the MacPherson strut of the Trax ACTIV. The same is true about other features, such as the engine block heater and premium all-terrain tires.
Embark on Driving Adventures with the Chevy Trax
The new Trax provides sufficient cargo storage space to carry hiking gear. With the rear seats folded, you can get up to 48.4 cubic feet of cargo space, which should be enough to accommodate a tent, sleeping bags, and other camping gear. Don't forget that the Trax roof rack is available to carry additional gear, such as bicycles and kayaks.
The generous interior space lets you transport all your gear to your destinations. Alternatively, you can travel with your favorite companions or pets inside the spacious Chevy Trax. Everyone will have ample legroom, and your cargo can fit nicely inside the contoured cubbies and trunk. With this Chevrolet SUV, you can always feel prepared for any spur-of-the-moment adventure.
The standard ground clearance of the Trax allows it to handle some light off-road terrain, which can be helpful when driving in some remote areas where you can go fishing, camping, and hiking. Most of all, the Trax is fuel-efficient and comfortable, making it a great vehicle for longer road trips.
