The Chevrolet Trax RS has a sportier appeance but no added performance.
Some other automakers like Honda have abandoned the super-cheap car market believing those customers would just as well buy a good used car. Among cars that are not SUVs, Chevrolet currently has the cheapest one of those available in the United States, the $13,600 Spark.
Products like the Trax provide an opportunity for those who want the storage space and tall seating position of an SUV but can’t afford – or don’t want to pay for – bigger, more expensive models. The US auto market has shifted heavily towards SUVs in recent years but, in general, SUVs tend to cost more than cars. “I’d also say that the quality of vehicles in this segment has improved dramatically,” said editor Will Kaufman. There has been an overall increase in cheap SUV models – meaning those with base prices around $25,000 or less – in the last five years, according to. The fact that some automakers are adding more cheap SUVs to the lineups, while others have dropped out of this market altogether shows that there is opportunity here, said Brad Franz, director of Chevrolet cars and crossover SUVs. The average base sticker price for vehicles sold in the United States today is almost $47,000, according to, so SUVs like the Trax are, relatively speaking, dirt cheap. All versions of the Trax, including flashy-looking Trax RS models, will have starting prices under $25,000, GM executives said. It will compete against the likes of the recently redesigned Honda HR-V, the Hyundai Kona, the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport and the Nissan Kicks. The subcompact Trax SUV has a starting price of just $21,500, a couple of hundred dollars below it’s current price putting it firmly among the cheapest SUVs on the market. But it also drops one major option while retaining what may be the SUV’s most important feature, it’s cheap price. The new version looks much, much sleeker than the chunky little SUV it replaces and adds new features. And driving that many miles each day on average says a lot for the Chevy Trax.General Motors unveiled a new, slightly bigger redesigned version of its cheapest entry-level SUV, the Trax. The better mileage and cost of gas my company pays for so now I am receiving 70 % more to put in my pocket with the money I am saving. I use it driving about 450 miles per day I can choose any vehicle I want but than the cost per mile goes up I have had larger more expensive cars in the past but I finally found a good little car I can travel in for my job.
#Chevrolet trax suvs drivers
The drivers seat is pretty comfortable- it’s rear mirrors are in a good location- it AC and heater work great - I have yet to have any issues with 11,000 miles on it. It’s a peppy little car but I still get 38mpg on the highway and 29 mph around town. Thankfully I purchased the all wheel drive offered as an option this little car was dragging its under side while going through 7 inches of snow. Two days ofter I was home I purchased one and headed out of town during a Michigan winter storm. I rented a Trax while out of state and loved it.I used it for 4 days and 1,200 miles later I decided once home I was going to purchase one.
