Chevrolet Trax
There is only one engine and transmission choice available for the 2025 Trax, but Chevrolet has chosen the drivetrain wisely. The Trax utilizes an extremely fuel-efficient 1.2L 3-cylinder turbocharged engine. Despite its diminutive size, this engine makes 137 horsepower, plenty to pull the relatively light Trax through city traffic with its 6-speed automatic transmission. Its EPA rating of 28 mpg in the city and 32 mpg on the highway is excellent.
Buyers are offered a choice of five different trim levels, LS, 1RS, LT, 2RS and ACTIV.
Buyers will likely be surprised by the level of standard equipment that comes on the base LS. An infotainment system with an 8-inch touchscreen, satellite radio, Wi-Fi hotspot technology, remote keyless entry, power windows and door locks, LED headlamps, Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto connectivity, two USB ports and 17-inch wheels. The 1RS adds 18-inch alloy wheels, heated front seats, and a remote engine starter.
The LT features roof rails, a rigid cargo cover, automatic climate control, an 11-inch touchscreen, a 12V power outlet, and push button start. The 2RS builds on the 1RS with 19-inch alloy wheels, a 6-speaker sound system, and 4 USB ports.
The ACTIV sits at the top of the lineup with heated side mirrors, 18-inch black wheels, 10-way power driver seat, leatherette upholstery, and a heated leather steering wheel.
Safety features across the lineup include active lane departure, forward collision mitigation, front pedestrian detection, a following distance alert, six airbags, and traction control.
