@@wns808 It has a wide rev range and a lot of torque throughout all 6 gears. Most small engines of small displacement including In-line 4s are designed to be revved high to get the pistons moving fast It’s good for them.
I have (or soon to say, had) the FWD version of the ‘20 Trax, I will vouch that even for the FWD version and to keep up with freeway traffic, you’ll spend majority of the time keeping it floored.
Ordered a ‘22 Equinox LT earlier this week with nearly everything you can get at the LT trim and coming in in a few weeks, and being a previous owner of a ‘20 Trax LT, the Trax just doesn’t cut it with 2 kids and being woefully underpowered. I had a previous job where my commute was mainly freeway and getting up to, keeping up with and passing at freeway speed, i had to keep the Trax floored. Word has it the Trax got a small power bump to 155hp for ‘22 but still that wouldn’t cut it. Only good thing about the Trax is the cheap payment, but as most have said, you get what you pay for. Also considered a Blazer, they’re nice but it would take months to get one, and preferably I like the interior layout of the Equinox more than the Blazer

Nice choice. Way better than the trax
@@Wcthllboy Thank you! 1 month in with the Equinox, loving it so far
Consider the corolla cross
Was the Trax AWD? That can influence it too. The fwd Trax is relatively quick
@@jackveech4941 It was FWD and even that was incredibly slow, I no longer have the Trax
Having driven one many times the first and second gear pull isn’t bad at all, once it gets into third it’s just a total dog.
Same! Had one and the first two were actually alright, but yep right after that is when I started cussing
@@josiahargueta9389 trax definitely has a 6 speed auto in consumer versions, not sure about the fleet variant.
If the 2nd to 3rd shift was the same as 1 and 2 it would have definitely pulled harder
Engine sounds so strained and the trans shifts so soft lol. That’s GM for you
All engines particularly 4 cylinders sound strained under harsh acceleration 😭 and soft shifting protects the trans

Honestly that’s dangerously slow for passing, and/or getting on a highway
Holy crap that is pathetic
It does decent until 3rd gear, at 3rd it just gives up
