Chevrolet’s most affordable compact SUV is back looking bigger and better than ever before. The 2024 Chevy Trax has been reworked both inside and out, giving you a lot of style and tech features. Here are the reasons why the new Trax is a worthy choice for your everyday driving needs.
5 Reasons to Choose the 2024 Chevy Trax
1. Sleek and Sporty Exterior Styling
If you weren’t a huge fan of previous Trax models, we don’t blame you. There wasn’t much to love about the exterior styling. But after skipping a whole model year, the Trax has been completely redesigned for 2024. It has a sleek, sporty exterior and borrows some of its styling cues from the Blazer.
The base LS will give you 17-inch wheels, power outside mirrors, black mirror caps, and LED headlights. Higher trims offer a choice of 19-inch wheels, while trims like the 1RS and 2RS amp up the sporty look with RS exterior styling and badging. There’s also an available power sunroof in higher trims.
2. Efficient Powertrain for Everyday Driving
The Trax comes with an efficient powertrain for everyday driving. Under the hood lies a 1.2L turbo engine matched to a six-speed automatic transmission. It produces 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque. With an estimated 30 MPG combined fuel economy, you can enjoy longer drives without stopping for gas.
3. Premium Features at a Budget
The new Trax comes with five trims, unlike previous models that offered only two trims. This means there are lots of comfort features and tech across the lineup. The base model keeps things simple with remote keyless entry, cloth seats, and manual climate control. You also get an 8-inch touchscreen display with wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Wi-Fi hotspot capabilities.
The available LS Convenience Package adds remote start, heated outside mirrors, and heated front seats. Skip the base for upgrades like Evotex-trimmed seats, power-adjustable front seats, and a wrapped and heated flat-bottom steering wheel. Higher trims like the LT, 2RS, and ACTIV also get a tech upgrade with a larger 11-inch touchscreen display.
4. Spacious Interior and Cargo
After its redesign, the 2024 Trax is bigger and more spacious than its predecessors. Thanks to the larger wheelbase, the five-seater cabin now offers ample legroom for everyone. There is an extra six cubic feet of cargo space, bringing the total volume to 25.6 cubic feet behind the rear seats. When the rear seats are down, cargo capacity expands to 54.1 cubic feet, enough to haul bulky items.
5. Advanced Safety Technology
The Trax is not just bigger but also safer. The Chevy Safety Assist suite of driver assistance technologies comes standard across the lineup. It has advanced safety features like forward collision alert, lane keep assist, automatic emergency braking, and front pedestrian braking.
The new Chevy Trax drives better than previous models and offers solid tech and features at an attractive price point. Stop by Lynn Layton Chevrolet in Decatur, AL to test-drive the 2024 Trax.
