I’m waiting for the dealership arrival to make my purchase after 20 years without a car payment finally something affordable that looks great inside and outside.
For many of us, even here in the frozen Midwest the lack of all wheel drive is not a deal breaker, especially us old folk who drove rear wheel drive Malibu’s, Nova’s and Camaro’s back in the 70’s. We survived. Now being retired, if the roads are bad we just wait until the next day and the roads are clear.
@@ChevyCLE 4 snow tires on each wheel is more effective than AWD using season tires in most circumstances. Have driven both in upstate NY winters and if I had to pick only one I am taking the snow tire equipped FWD vehicle. Obviously both AWD combined with snows would be best. The change in traction with snow tires is drastic. You do have to deal with tire changeover twice a year but I will take that for less upfront cost of FWD, less weight and better fuel economy all of the time.
@@ChevyCLE I don’t really care either way. When I commuted into the city it was nice although never really needed. Now that I am retired I just plan better.
Exterior looks VERY similar to the Blazer, which is good (but maybe not for Blazer owners!). Interior looks really good too. Pricing seems excellent. I don't like this exterior color, & I don't like gray interiors, but I do like the yellow accents. Looks like a great car. Finally: something affordable. And: FWD is just fine with me, thank you.
I snagged mine Saturday. I got the mosaic black LT and the one I lucked out on has every upgrade offered in these Trax. I have the sunroof package, the full electronics package wireless apple/Android car play, adaptive cruise control, drivers confidence package, keyless remote start, LT Convenience Package. The seats are the Evotec leatherette/cloth combo. It has heated seats, mirrors and wheel, wireless charging pad, the works and it's fun as hell to drive. Got mine for $26,000 out the door with gap insurance and extended warranty. I happened to be at the dealership as they were unloading it and knew I found a steal as I hadn't seen another LT fully loaded like this anywhere and this one had more upgrades than any of the RS trims I had looked at. I prefer the blue accents inside the LT as there are just a few on the dash and not allover the seats like the RS and the blue accents blend with the screen displays. The red or yellow in the other trim models continues it onto the seats which I didn't like at all. The only change I'm making are the gold bowties to black ones. If you can find one like mine there's no way I'd go with a higher trim because really all that changes are the inches of the wheels, a power seat and seat material, and gloss grill. Im obsessed with mine! She's a sexy little thing for this mama to drive around town. 2 of my 3 kids are out of the house now so I got to downsize from my big SUV and this was the perfect little crossover to do it in. I don't need a luxury car I've always been a Chevy girl but I feel like I'm not sacrificing much honestly. The tech in the car is so incredible at this price point, it was a no-brainer and I love it!! My only dislikes was no air vent in the back and I'd love an arm rest with no cup holders in the backseat. Obviously I'd trash the gold bowties and have mine completely blacked out but that's it. Just can't praise this car enough. It's pretty cool because mine is the only one Ive seen on the road here in DFW in Texas so far.
This is Chevrolets answer to the Cruze replacement. See a lot of similar parts (lane assist buttons, interior door handles, etc. love the wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto! This is a great job Chevy! Our family misses the Cruze.
Nailed it. I am still loving my 2013 Cruze but am considering the new Trax as the replacement. I have been waiting for sedans to come back in style, but this is pretty close lol. Love the new look.
@Creole Bunny Definitely right when it comes to Honda. My Cruze is at 125,000 miles and did have a coolant leak issue. All was fixed for $1000 and that is all I have ever spent fixing the thing. I have had it 10 years as a daily driver. If the Trax can do the same, it is definitely worth the cost.
Own a 19 2LT awd trax. This is lightyears ahead of the previous version. Wish this was around in 19. Our only complaint of our 19 is a tiny trunk and floor is not flat when we recline seats...
Looks great. Wish it had more power and ditch that antenna sticking up. Go w shark fin. As far as looks r concerned and price.. I am good w that part. What size is gas tank? I guess it gets decent mileage so wont hav to make pit stops that often.
Everyone has their preferences! I think its a price point car. They want to keep it as low as possible. If customers want AWD then the Trailblazer is a option
and if it has a rubber timing belt instead of chain-driven timing gear, leave it on the lot. Useful life of a belt is iffy past 40K miles, and you have to get it replaced or could ruin the engine. Odd-cylinder motors have all sorts of vibration issues too.
I will say that after test driving a Trailblazer RS with the 3-cylinder engine, I felt that the engine didn't feel too bad. Considering that I am a gigging drummer though, I would need to be hauling equipment around all the time and I did not feel comfortable loading that vehicle up with that engine as the power plant. I could be the exception though. Hauling three other people around might be a similar comparison. I don't agree with putting a 3-cylinder engine in these smaller SUVs unless they can get more power out of them. I ended up with a Terrain instead of the Trailblazer RS AWD that I test drove. More money and more room and it handled all of my equipment with no problem. The gas mileage was the same as well. That is just my take on it. It's a nice looking vehicle though.
The Blue Glow metallic you can order an LT with Blue interior trim This car has the Yellow trim with an Artemis accent on air conditioning vents there is a Yellow accent that's way cooler than this model that you can order I can't decide on an orange, nitro or black one 😉 love that it comes with Sunroof I just test drove one today nice and smooth
The dash would look much better without the curved infotainment center stack. It should just run straight across like Mercedes it would look more luxury and would not isolate passengers from the over all ride experience. Not to mention it's not a race car or sport sedan so no need for the curve
Why not a 2.0 or 2.5 4cylinder 6 or 8 speed...don't feel like engines gonna hold up...damn shame car looks good but it's gonna lack power mark my words...shouldn't be marketing as a sporty mazda type
As an old Trax owner, everything looks great. However they've made a HUGE mistake. A 3 cylinder 1.2 L ??!! Really??!! So now is a bigger car, with a smaller, less powerful engine. That's certainly a deal breaker for me.
I overheard the salesman talking abt it today while getting my car serviced. He mentioned they’re coming to Kingdom Chevy this spring. I have a 2019 I want a trade now this is niceeeee!!🚙❣️🫣
Actually, this new Trax has TWO top trims; the ACTIV and the 2RS, which have the same price. The 2RS is the only trim that gets the 19" wheels, but no power driver seat (the ACTIV has it). ACTIV trim has 18" wheels. Also, a power liftgate is not an option for any of the five Trax trims; a sunroof and a phone charging pad are extra options. I have to say I am quite disappointed in the 3L engine chosen for this car, which even with turbo, puts out only 137 HP. The engine definitely does not match the new looks and styling of the Trax, and to have an RS (Rally Sport) trim with only 137 HP is an ironic joke! If Chevy was going to redesign the entire vehicle, make it bigger, and give it such sexy styling, they should have definitely given the new Trax a more potent and capable power plant to go with the new looks, at least 175 HP I'd say. Although I really like the new redesign and style, I'm afraid that the small engine is a deal breaker for me. It probably will be as well for other car buyers. Chevy really screwed up on this! 😩
Yeah well unfortunately the warranty is not any good you only get 36,000 mile warranty on it so therefore I wouldn’t buy it because of the warranty when I can go buy in a Kia Sorrento that has a 10 year hundred thousand mile warranty or even the Kia soul that has a five-year 60,000 mile warranty not to mention a key is a better made vehicle than GM and the retail value holds much better
I just put deposit down and ordered my 2024 Trax Activ 🙌 so excited can’t wait for delivery.
Never thought it would be a day a trax actually looks good and sell like crazy that color set it off just right !!!!
Can't keep them in stock right now lol
Americans need a little lower-cost vehicle like this
Yes! This will be a great fit.

Same for around us. You can make it through winter on FWD. I’m assuming they wanted to be a price leader with this one

I'm excited for these. Should be coming soon.
who wants to pay a different price and get the same looking vehicle as every other Chevy buyer has already?
I love it! Impressive 11 inch touch screen. Just wish it had a different antenna - the long pointy one takes away from the sleek looks
It is very impressive!
I just got a black one 2 days ago I love it.
Awesome!!
2 days ago for me to… Got the active in nitro yellow…I over love mine
Should’ve put the 1.5T in this to make it more sporty and more horsepower.
You'll be surprised with this pickup that the Trailblazers have.
Just got one 2 days ago. Absolutely Love it! Worth the wait!!
Congrats!

Thank God for something nice and Affordable
For sure!!
Looks great. Not sure why Blue isn't available in the higher trim but available in the lower trims. Please make a blue color trax chevy!!
Red is much nicer than blue
A dignified blue darker not that electrified crap
I bet GM wont be able to supply the demand for the new Trax.
I sure hope they do!
@@ChevyCLE These will sell like hotcakes. They offer outstanding value for the price and look great inside and out.
Absolutely! Just get them to us lol
My dream car looks basically like a modified Blazer looks beautiful
Everyone loves the sporty SUVs right now!
Really dig this think this should of been the blazer . The RS would be the one to get . Red black trim is perfect
RS does look great!
Also,2RS and the active are BOTH the top trims
Yes they are, it also appears on the Chevrolet website builder that the prices are the same as well.
Own a 19 2LT awd trax. This is lightyears ahead of the previous version. Wish this was around in 19. Our only complaint of our 19 is a tiny trunk and floor is not flat when we recline seats...

This seems more like a cruze replacement than a new trax...it looks really sharp!
I can agree there!
4:42 power switch down is the black button left side, opposite handle to lower hatch
front i like the old one better, at the back new one better.. love trax so much..💕💕💕
Something all new!
@@ChevyCLE front look just the same as all new HRV
Looks sharp
I have a 2016 trax AWD the new one looks great but with no AWD idk if I'll get it.
Everyone has their preferences! I think its a price point car. They want to keep it as low as possible. If customers want AWD then the Trailblazer is a option
I'd love this trim & color 😍
Great choice!
I wouldn’t mind having one
Get one!
The downfall of these models will be its 1.2 3-cylinder that are only rated up to 32 Mpg 😩
Its early still so we shall see!
and if it has a rubber timing belt instead of chain-driven timing gear, leave it on the lot. Useful life of a belt is iffy past 40K miles, and you have to get it replaced or could ruin the engine. Odd-cylinder motors have all sorts of vibration issues too.
I will never buy a vehicle with less than 4 cylinders. I don't like counter balance shafts.

We live in Western New York, have long winters and front wheel drive is not a deal breaker.
It's not a must have for most.
Nicely done video.
Thank you!
Thank you!
Cheaper than a Corolla and it doesn't look ugly. I bet they will sell a lot of these.
I agree there!
For All who didn't know, This is a Korean Inspired Compact SUV. Good Job!
No Bose speakers??
Хах, Haval такое уже 3 года выпускает, дизайн точь в точь, а именно это схоже с F7 и кстати не плохая машинка так то.
It’s literally a Chirey Omoda 5 with Chevrolet badges and different bumpers
Chevrolet Trax 2024 Is Best
yassssss a video of a black one! I have a 2rs white reserved, but will probably order a black one!
I have the 2RS crimson .have you heard new news on when they will be coming to Canada or coming to dealers?im impatient haha
Ordered **********
Awesome! Congratulations! If in Northeast I may be able to help.
Looks like a winner looks wise 👍
I like it! Can't wait to get them in.
If this is 25 k what is the depreciation? 60 percent in less than 1 year?
The dash would look much better without the curved infotainment center stack. It should just run straight across like Mercedes it would look more luxury and would not isolate passengers from the over all ride experience. Not to mention it's not a race car or sport sedan so no need for the curve
does it have the fold flat front seat like in the Trailblazer?
The interior design is very simple for 2024
Gosh, I wish this was AWD. Looks amazing, but sadly no AWD is a deal breaker for me :(
Maybe something for the future? Who knows!
Just get a blazer or trail blazer
does it have a driver’s ceiling grab handle ?
Made in MX❤ 🇲🇽
Nice but can a shark antenna be added?
i cant understand why chevy wont come to SEA
I like this
Its sweet!
But can it go 200K miles?
We shall see. I know they did a bunch of testing.
this one got 360 camera?
How much smaller is this compared to the new Trailblazer?
Honestly I'll have to do a video when we get one in. Compare the 2 because it was tough to tell.
It's actually a little bigger. Wider and a little longer
I WOULD BUY ONE IF IT HAD AWD
Maybe something later but you'll have to look at a Trailblazer for now
It’s a baby blazer.
Pretty close but has some differences.
There is no air vent in second seat??
I don't believe so
@Chevy CLE I already checked that there is air vent from LT trim in second seat
When will these release?
They are set to release in the next 2-4 months.
Alot like my chevy hhr
r u going to cover the new 2024 camaro ????
Absolutely if and when announced!
@@ChevyCLE thanks I want to hear if there will be special edition
Wow
Right!
CHEVROLET TRAX price is going up by the day!!
2RS has the 19inch rims,and you called this at one point a trailblazer 😂😂😝
I know lol my co workers were giving me crap over it lol. I don’t wake up early often 😂
Hahah allll good brother.sh** happens.I thought it was funny
@@kyleedgerton8496 Happy to give the laugh 😂

@@ChevyCLE no worries bud!
I just thought I was going more crazy than normal for me. ❣️
ok

The Trailblazers have had plenty of pick up. I think the 2.0T would be a little much for this.
@@ChevyCLE non turbo charged option tho
@@ChevyCLE i was more refering to the longevity of the engine not acceleration most anything will have gettyup if its turboed lol
@@jmoice1125 I gotcha. We will have to see. Still very early.
@@ChevyCLE your absolutely correct....im hoping it does cause that price point might help drive compact suv market down were it should be
Looks like buick envision
Similar styling I can see.
there a Hybrid or no?
Not at this time. Not sure if there will be.
It’s a go cart , 3 cylinder! 😂
May be a 3-cylinder, but it has 137hp 162 pd-ft torque compared to the 4-cylinder Kicks (122 114) and powered by an automatic transmission not a CVT.
@@Cerby1979 bragging about 137hp 😂😂😂 my Seadoo has more horsepower 😂
Is this 4 cylinder?
3 Cylinder!
That thang sexy. Wow. You sure that’s a Trax?!
Yes it is lol!
I dont think the 4" lower is a good thing. My trailblazer is just about at a good height. The Equinox and GMC Terrain are at a perfect height.
It wasn't too bad getting in and out. It was comfortable!
I have a 2020 Trax fwd, I wonder if I can trade in
Awesome! When they come in check it out.
Wiw
I'm waiting for mine to get off the boat
This is the top trim, and doesn’t even have rear ac and hearing controls??
Not many cars under $30,000 that I've ever seen have that.
Top package and single climate control and no AWD??? Man that's cheap considering they use the title ACTIVE
Trying to keep the pricing below 30k!
Why would anyone buy a front drive suv. That’s woke Chevy for you
I don’t care for AWD 2 wheel is just fine for me
Not everyone needs them! I know where I live we do not.
No AWD
No sir. Not as of right now
As an old Trax owner, everything looks great. However they've made a HUGE mistake. A 3 cylinder 1.2 L ??!! Really??!!
So now is a bigger car, with a smaller, less powerful engine. That's certainly a deal breaker for me.
I would drive one first. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
It’s crazy this is just a trailblazer with a digital screen now
It's different! Size, drive, and styling.
137 HP? super weak
Small car. It'll have pick up.
야무지네
Oh look a smaller blazer.
Thats what the people like! Sporty.
I love the new styling but power seems anemic even for it's class....at least by the specs.
meh. dash looks good. outside... pass
Really? Maybe when you see it in person.
I overheard the salesman talking abt it today while getting my car serviced. He mentioned they’re coming to Kingdom Chevy this spring. I have a 2019 I want a trade now this is niceeeee!!🚙❣️🫣
Definitely a nice upgrade!
Cars are losing their character and personality. . Copies of Caoa Cherry.
way better than the previous generation
Not a fan of the short green house windows. Prefer more glass rather than this counterphobic Camaro interior styling.
