We got one back in October of 2016 and the interior is absolutely stunning and it gets great gas mileage. We went up to the dealership and asked them what cars get the best gas mileage and they said the Chevy Trax. We mainly got the vehicle is because we were spending so much more money on gas for the Dodge and the Chevy Silverado. We mainly use this car for out of town trips.

So hard to believe this is the sister car to the Vauxhall Mokka. The Mokka is vastly nicer. Don't they also sell another sister car in the US, Buick Encore?
Im viewing this in 2024, and the Trax has developed a timing chain problem, on many cars. thats a thousand dollar or more repair issue! and the turbo offers more get up and go! but wears out the little 4cl engine faster! buyer beware! B etter check with a trusted mechanic to see if GM improved those issues!
WHOA WHOA WHOA !!!!!! Sexist is only when men say something. If women do it, it's ok. Remember, we live in a "politicially correct" world. What's good for one is bad for the other. Double standard is the norm man!!
Hi Zack,I have a question about VW Tiguan. I heard that consumers in Europe and Asia can choose either to buy the standard Tiguan (made in Germany) or the long wheel base (made in Mexico). But, apparently, we in NA only get the long wheel base. Listening to your friend, Thomas, it seems that we also won't get the high HP engine or the dual-clutch transmission. Is that really the case? Or ,hopefully, we also will have the options to choose from.Thanks
gas mileage of these cuvs are not close to the small cars they replace. example my Honda civic gets about 41 mpg highway this trax cuv gets only 33. that is a big drop in mileage. And this is a small sport utility mileage is worse in a regular sport utility. That is a big penalty to pay just for the privilege of sitting higher
You make a good point. I don't understand why they can't get more? Cruze 1.4L gets 41 MPG. If this is the same engine, then it should be getting perhaps 38 to 39 MPG. I don't think that this thing weighs that much more than a car.
What? Your ass ain't warm enough to warm up that seat? Bro!!! The less gadgets you have in a car, the better. Less things break and no need to spend an arm and leg to fix them.
This car is toy junk..I felt like the engine was taken out of a bicycle, the inside were as strong as a women's cosmetic makeup hatch and the reliability of a Yugo...stay away...its better to get a Toyota or HOnda
Remember seeing one at the Montreal auto show a couple years back and I thought, why the hell is it so pricey and so cheap inside? you can get a compact SUV (little bigger than that Sub-compact), get about the same mileage and better equipements. That one is just a jacked up Chevrolet Sonic with drum breaks..
Not sure why Chevrolet wants it to look like a small SUV ? Id lower the hood and remove those bumpy square wheel wells and sure it would look like a decent car.
You should stop doing gratuitous tilts and pans - they make no sense whatsoever, they do not reveal anything worth revealing, they do not advance your visual story, they are simply annoying. 5:21 - both hands on one side of the steering wheel? Left hand at 8 o'clock and the right hand just hanging there? Seriously?
This car is not Daewoo. Daewoo is long gone. It's GM , and the Koreans assemble it, but they didn't develop it. This car is originally developed by Opel, not Daewoo.

If you drive a lot, buy a Diesel Cruze or Equinox. I bought the 2017 Cruze TDI and it gets between 50 and 60 MPG on the highway.
I got a 2019 trax a month ago :) love it
I just bought one a day ago. Just have to wait to arrive. Can’t wait to get in it and drive
@@engihabit sorry I just saw this . Idk how it translates to L but it gets like 30miles to a gallon , idk if that helps .
@@JohnAckerman31 I hope you like it :) my best friend just bought one a few weeks ago and she loves hers as well
@@HaLLiEB85 how is your running ?? How many miles u put on it?
@@lasvegaslife5770 runs great . I am at 10,600 currently . I’ve done two oil changes (I go by oil percentage as I don’t drive a lot )
I own the 1.8 manual.Runs great.Cant believe you had an issue with "no volume knob".This version nice...shame Aust only gets the ass end models.

Thanks, very informative reviews as always :)
Just got a 2016 chevy trax LT AWD I love it such a great suv.
Hi Zack
Thank you for the video
I'm definitely going to get one
My 2019 trax is amazing
Loved chevy trax 😀😀😍😍
They addressed some of those issues with the refresh model coming..
My wife has a Buick Encore. Pretty much the same vehicle and she loves it.
Still convinced the Trax is the antithesis for people who enjoy driving and cars
It is a lemon piece of crap.
where is a more updated review on Chevy Trax...2020 or 2021
For only US$15,000 at disco red prices they are selling well.
Why is the rod holding the muffler rusting
Can you fold down the back seats down?
yes
Yes both . The seats move too
So hard to believe this is the sister car to the Vauxhall Mokka. The Mokka is vastly nicer. Don't they also sell another sister car in the US, Buick Encore?

aimed at women? A bit sexist don't you think? I'm a male and I'm thinking of purchasing one of these

My ex girlfriend has it ...and it sucks..

I got a 2017 at the end of 2018 & there's a HUGE difference between the 2016 & 2017, so glad I got the better vehicle. 😌
mine has heated seats and radio volume on the steering wheel
Chevy could've atleast added a temp gauge
Exactly
That’s the only complaint I have .
I really like it a lot
I am going to get one
i would love one /
Funny thing is my step mom just bought one lol definitely for women

700km a tank ain't that bad.
Zach, my 2014 Trax LTZ has heated seats from the factory.
that car is so cute! better looking than hrv and cx3
mazda cx 3 all the way it looks a lot better and has much netter fuel economy this car is a no brainer
no heated seats, so long trax !!
What? Your ass ain't warm enough to warm up that seat? Bro!!! The less gadgets you have in a car, the better. Less things break and no need to spend an arm and leg to fix them.
Wear pants . I live in Cleveland and it’s cold half of the year and I manage just fine without heated seats in my basic package trax 🤷🏼♀️😂
I am looking at buying a 2019 Premier Model that has leather heated seats with factory remote start for our cold Canadian winters
My 16 has two armrests
The new model looks much better! This one has become OLD!

just buy a mazda cx 3 its the same price, more reliable and you get better gas mileage
Reliable in what? I've read that they have transmission problems. Unless you buy a stick shift, but the auto apparently isn't that reliable.
Not sure why Chevrolet wants it to look like a small SUV ? Id lower the hood and remove those bumpy square wheel wells and sure it would look like a decent car.
It must have been hard to find inspiration to review a vehicle like this...
I drove a 2015 for 200 miles...a rental...it made me suicidal.
Why?

YUUUUCK! 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
not impressed with this vehicle
Then buy a Cadillac escalade. IT'S A LOW BUDGET CITY VEHICLE. What do you expect? You think the Honda or Kia sould is 100 times better?
... then don't buy one.
They are great now 5 years later :)
rubbish daewoo !!

zing!
He likes knobs..haha
No heated seats no volume knob... lil 😂 like seriously bro cry baby 😢
its so ugly, my eyes hurt
looks a bit like Suzuki sx4
Chevy Trash ?
ugly, cheap, not going to last.. but one a year old for less then half LOL
