2021 Chevrolet Trax
Overview
The 2021 Chevrolet Trax remains consistent with Chevrolet's long-standing reputation for building vehicles that provide the performance and reliability that people need at a fair price. The sporty compact SUV design offers a bit more room than a traditional sedan offers without the excess of a full-sized truck for daily driving. It offers the features expected of modern cars, both for safety and economical, eco-friendly driving, along with the power and performance expected of an SUV.
The Perfect Ride For...
It's difficult to define a specific group of people the 2021 Chevrolet Trax is best suited for because it was designed to be an all-purpose vehicle to suit a variety of needs. It has room for the traditional “soccer mom” to drive five kids and their sports gear to practice or a game, and it has room for a carpenter to haul their tools and gear to work on a daily basis. The safety features make it good for a first car as teenagers learn to drive, and the continued performance will last well past their college years. It's perfect for a young couple as they move into their first house, as it provides a comfortable space for weekly grocery shopping, annual vacations, and daily driving. Generally speaking, the Chevrolet Trax puts the sports and utility into the description of a sports utility vehicle. It doesn't provide the economy of a tiny car or the power of a full-sized truck but instead allows for those features in a comfortable daily driver with a versatile balance.
Drive and Handling
The 2021 Trax is available with a 1.4L Turbo ECOTEC 4-cylinder engine linked to a 6-speed automatic transmission, designed to provide a balance of economy and power. The rear seats fold flat to allow for cargo space, when raised they allow seating for four passengers in addition to the driver, along with a rear cargo area for luggage, gear, or equipment as needed. Front-wheel drive is standard and ideal for those who don’t plan to leave the pavement. The all-wheel drive paired with the StabiliTrak electronic stability control system with traction control provides safe handling in the most inclement of weather conditions.
