I live in Miami-Dade County and financed the Trax LT a month ago for $26,715 (the Buick was well over $30,000) and the price was the main reason I ended with the Trax. So far it has not disappoint me.
Both solid budget vehicles, but the Trax will leave more coins in your pocket........
@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8the Chevy Spark was the best budget vehicle, super reliable and super fun to drive. Wish they were still made
I also live in Miami-/ i like both, but am leaning towards the Envista
@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8 Agreed. All of the Buick Envistas at the 3 Buick dealerships within a 50 mile radius around me are currently marked up with either a mandatory dealership packaged included or a market adjustment price added to it. With the Chevy Trax at various trim levels I've found some for around MSRP or a few hundreds off at multiple Chevy dealerships with better financing rates too if I don't want to pay with cash. If the Buick Envista was only a few thousands more than the Chevy Trax like the MSRP suggested IRL then I would definitely go with the Buick Envista, but the Chevy Trax is just a better deal at the dealerships around me. Now I just have to wait for my insurance check from State Farm to come in before I actually go get one.
Team Envista for me!
I buy an envista today and i really like it 💪
That envista looks expensive. Tricky and effective styling!
The Buick for me. I prefer the styling.
Agree
Envista all the way for me. I just bought an Envista Avenir.
I like the Envista better for looks, I just wish it had AWD, but I still appreciate that not including it is helping keep the costs down and these days people need good cars that are less expensive
Thanks so much! I hate when its so hard to find reviews of sister cars to help pick which of the two is a better fit. I think I'm on team Envista in the ST trim.
I bought the Buick Envista Avenir and love it!
I hear these are selling fast. I would get the Buick, but the Chevy looks nice also.
They are. Almost every dealership I contacted had one that just got purchased or waiting on some more to arrive. I lucked out and found a dealership that had a few Trax and in the color I really wanted
Envista for me. I bought a black Avenir. Love everything about it. I don’t haul crap so the shape and styling are perfect. It feels premium. Buick did a good job. Mine was well over 30k though, so there’s that.
They both look amazing. I'd choose the Trax since I prefer sporty over luxury.
Love your reviews. You guys do a great job.
Thanks so much!
I like the straightforward reviews. Also the clear reason for why you give the points. Well done
Thank you!
Amazing reviews! Love them! Regards from Mexico
Thanks so much!
This was really a nice and thorough comparison review!
Thank you!
I have the Trax LT and I have not had any issues. It is not the fastest but once it gets started - its a nice ride. The interior cabin feels the same as my GMC Terrain ( spacious). Good job Chevy -
I'd take the yellow Trax over the red one. But the Envista is the one I'd really take.
I bought an Envista and love it.
'24 Trax LT 22.4k w/ included safety, convenience and weather pkgs during special promotions. In NC. The ride, steering and banking are very smooth--the tad longer/wider wheelbase really enhances stability. The turbo engages very seamlessly as you accelerate, kinda fun. Very quiet too. We love it.
I like both vehicles and primarily I purchase Chevrolet vehicles but on this sedentary, the detail you both provided, to the end-user. I would go with the Buick. Great hon, and thank you for sharing the great detail.
Excellent comparison!😸
They both look nice, I prefer the look of the Buick which is subjective. My only concern is turbocharging a small 3 cylinder engine?? Sure it’s peppy but at what cost, taxing that small engine enters unknown territory long term. I’m thinking that if either one is your choice maybe it would be a good candidate for a 3 year lease, after 36 months you can turn it in. I may be wrong but I can’t see this engine going north of 100K miles without problems, this is just my opinion.
The Chevy Trailblazer has the 1.2L 3 cylinder Turbo since 2020 and no major issues, just relax OEMs are gonna be using 3 cylinder motors to come to save coins. GM good job solid vehicle........
@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8you paid by GM? You comment on everyone’s post, gtfoh
Excellent comparison. I test drove both the Trax and Envista. For me what it came down to was the interior. The Trax felt a bit more lively and invigorating. And Trax had more colors that were a better fit for me as a male.
Loved the exterior styling of the Envista but the Chevy dealerships were more willing to negotiate on my trade in. So I went with the Trax and it's been amazing. The drive, handling, fun factor, no body lean.....it's a full package winner.
They both look great. The Trax appeals more to my head with its larger, higher-mounted brake lights for safety, rear wiper, and larger cargo area. The Envista appeals more to my heart with its sexy, upscale styling. Both vehicles make me very leery about long-term reliability. GM Korea is infamous for expensive to repair, failure-prone little turbo engines.
I just bought the TRAX and love it 🎉
Thank you i have a Trax 2RS and i love it.
Sure thing! The 2024 Chevrolet Trax is a compact SUV that offers a comfortable ride and plenty of interior space. It comes with advanced safety features like lane departure warning and forward collision alert to keep you safe on the road. Plus, it has a fuel-efficient engine that helps you save on gas. Overall, it's a reliable and practical choice for everyday driving. Let me know if you have any specific questions about it!
Trax is the clear winner folks. 21.4K USD MSRP with a 6 speed auto no CVT and for those GM haters the 1.2L 3 cylinder Turbo has been in the Chevy Trailblazer since 2020 and no major issues.......
Thank you for this comparison. These are the 2 cars I'm currently looking to choose between buying
@@scotpage5526 Buy the Trax, its smooth 6 speed auto peppy enough for city driving and easily pass motorist on the highway. Gas consumption is good, but if your a heavy foot driver your gas consumption will decrease. Cargo space is good for its size and 1.2 L 3cylinder turbo has been in the Chevy Trailblazer since 2020 and (no major issues).........
I’ll never buy another GM/Chevy after my 2020 Malibu debacle. 8 major repairs in just over 3 years of ownership. Brutal all around, more for everyone else I suppose
@@FakeNews953 Did you buy the Malibu new or second hand?
3cyl…lol next year will be a 2….then a lawnmower engine…while the prices keep going north
I just bought the Envista ST. It has all the options, except the sunroof, watts-link suspension. and rear parking sensor. I wanted to mention that the 2025 models ae rumored to make some of these options, especially the rear parking sensor, standard.
Just bought an Envista ST today (white) and test drove the trax as well but def preferred the Buick over the Chevy
I’ve purchased the Chevy before the Buick was available, and as soon as I could get my hands on a Buick, I traded the Chevy in. I have yet to seen another Buick drive around yet in my area. Congrats.
@@justinj4827yes same!! I’ve been on the lookout now for weeks to see if anyone has discovered this vehicle and the only thing I’ve saw was a Buick enclave. I’m really surprised they aren’t more popular considering the styling and the price point!
Chevrolet Trax for me.
Between the two I'd probably go for a Trax in a lower trim level to get cloth seats, non-automatic HVAC and physical gauge needles. Stylewise the Trax appeals to me more - it's morphing back into a station wagon where the Envista makes me think if I'm going to get a liftback it'll be a Civic or Mazda 3.
the envista looks more expensive then what it actually is and I like that!
If I had the Trax, when it comes time to refresh the supension id put the factory watts link upgrade in along with some upgraded dampers. Seems like a good cheap family car if it hold up well.
4:13 I love how the Trax changes color!
The Envista looks better, but if I'm buying a small SUV I prefer the Trax as it's a tad shorter and a box on wheels so more practical. Either would be great.
Cant go wrong with either one of them
Love my 24 Trax LS! Just think in a perfect GM world would have been one from Olds and Pontiac too......
I bought the Chevy Trax Activ I just liked it better, and was was a better price
I bought the 2024 Trax. I was concerned about the small 3 cylinder engine so I also bought an extended warranty. 120,000 miles/72 months. So I'm covered for the first 6 years.
Can I buy a chevy exteded warranty right before my factory chevy warranty expires ? Thanks.
@@brandondalehixon4748 Yes. Thats what I plan to do with mine.
What is the reliability rating of Lexus is500 fsport and how good is the mpg with that humongous engine
You guys did short the Trax .5 points when it comes to headroom. That makes the score 4.5 Chevy - 5 Buick. The price difference makes the Trax the by far the better value, which is what this segment is all about. Might be one in my garage in the future.
The Buick Envista starts at $23,495 so it’s also pretty low
@@wittlecwiten1943Problem is it runs a little more than $2K higher than the Trax, basically the exact same car. I just bought a well optioned Trax LT for $24,499. A similarly equipped Envista sitting next to it was priced at $26,950. I'll take the savings and apply it to the first payment.
I'm in NH and have over 10400 miles on my Trax 1rs. The only thing I notice that has been popping up, is when down shifting into first gear, cut tends to bang a bit. Also, there's a very faint vibration in the front when going from 55-70 mph. None under 55 and none over 70. Dealers can't find an issue. I actually prefer the FWD over AWD. Even in New Hampshire, if you're careful, you can drive easily with FWD. Besides, one thing dealers do not tell you is that if you damage just one tire beyond repair, you must replace all 4 tires at a huge expense. If you don't, and you keep your car for a while, your AWD gearbox will eventually fail. That happened to me with my previous car. I only replace the one tire because I was leasing it.
Envista Sport hands down.
The new Trax is an incredible upgrade over the last model, and I love what Buick has done with the Envista. I just can't shake concerns about GM quality.
I would pick the trax
I just bought a new Buick envista and I am very happy with it. I paid slightly more than the Chevy trax but I feel it’s a better deal
Congrats on your new car!
Envista looks better and looks like a sedan.
To get the Black Aluminum wheels on the Trax you need to buy the top trim.
I am not a fan of the Envista body, especially the front and back. The front just comes off less like an suv and more like a sedan and the back slope just makes it feel more round and fat. The Trax on the other hand looks more aggressive in all the right ways, where the front looks like something sporty while the back feels more streamlined with some decent depth.
Trax for me.
My desire would be to lower the Envista and rim it up.
I’ll be going the BUICK route
Envista looks better
Plus the supercharged 6 cylinder really makes a difference
Reliability?
I love the envista, but I wish they have awd
Winter tires is all you need for winter conditions......
how about fuel economy?
We cover that at 13:25
No rear wiper on the buick is a deal breaker. Come on. Why would you not have that
BMW X6, Mercedes GLE, Lamborghini Urus, none have rear wipers. Most reviews harp on the Buick, saying it was left off as a cost-cutting measure, but remain silent when talking about the fancy Europeans. Truthfully, you don’t need one.
@stevep9261 truthful I want one. In the snow it makes a massive difference
the buick looks like an Urus
I want the Buick envista bc of the style but I am in the Buick envista group page on fb and man them things are falling apart very quickly or having so many problems with electric work like Buick other cars. So I’ll pass Chevy better
There are better SUVs on the market, of course... but these are pretty impressive for this price point.
Guys. I think I want to buy a Buick.
C'mon, is this really surprising? A Buick should always be nicer than a Chevy. Chevy is generally the brand for entry-level, and budget conscious drivers and buyers who are younger and would like something more sporty. A Buick is traditionally for someone a little older, has a little more money to spend, and who is looking for something more refined with additional features.
More platform sharing from the great GM. Dollar cost averaging on big scale.
GUYS!!! They dont and could not have AWD on a 1.3 L! Already bad enough, its shocking these new small 1.3, 1.5, even 1.7 Litres are getting turbos in them. Its ridiculous. Defeating the purpose of being economical and fuel efficient May seem fun, but very impractical. Can never, ever, go wrong with 2.0s or 2.4s. These are the safe zone engines. All my cars have been GM with these size engines and they have been great for power and economical.
Trax
15:19 15:19 15:37
They still using that antenna in 2024 for the Chevy Trax?!? 🤦🏾♂️
Honda offers a much smaller HR-V for over $30k fully loaded. But the little Honda offers four wheel drive.
The new HRV is huge
@@sachinnair91 over priced though.
Honda doesn't offer and Four Well Drive Vehicles. They only have all wheel drive. and the all wheel drive systems in the HR-V and the CRV are their "sub standard" AWD system. But on these cars the AWD system is really just for better snow or maybe heavy rain situations. In which case from what people with experience have told me... Front wheel drive with some good tires on it, or at least better tires on the front of the car in winter do just fine/GOOD.
@@RRr-yl8zr well, never listen to everything people say first of all. And that all depends on what climate a vehicle is exposed and where the driver lives. There’s no record in the United States which documents someone purchasing a vehicle and asking the difference between 4 wheel drive and all wheel drive, so let’s stick to the narrative of video thank you.
Focus on reliability and quality first
Torque > HP
I chose neither
GM is still hooked on badge engineering across multiple brands. That is part of why they went bankrupt. It's like they learned nothing from Honda and Toyota
Gotta love that hard plastic armrest in the Trax!
Not gonna find a vehicle for this price without a CVT, hard touch armrest isn't a issue.......
Buick is better. The aisin transmission vs the hydramatic in the Chevy is huge. Plus Chevy always looks like it’s designed by an 8 year old.
Chevy
They're only worth it if you're tight on cash & can only opt in for the base trim with no packages. The second you start going up in trims & start to add packages, you'll be entering Kia Seltos territory. Which is the far better vehicle to go with.
Bro, these are not fucking SUVs. They're fucking hatchbacks that are slightly lifted.
Buick Envista ➡️ China vs Chevrolet Trax ➡️ S.korea...➡️🤫➡️ don't forget that...➡️ 😁
I thoight envista was South Korea?
Arent these both 3 cylinders made in china...if thats the case...ill pass on both
South Korea
No, they are made in South Korea.
Union made in South Korea. Yes that's true.
Isn't everything you own and have on made in China? Get real.
engine made in mexico, transmission and car made in korea
Not impressed with the MPG. The nissan rouge is bigger with a slightly bigger and rather more powerful engine and gets better MPG.......Come on GM you can do better
Nissan Rogue has a CVT and Trax/Envista has a traditional 6 speed auto........
@crow_2k11beatsbydre8 all things being equal I could accept that. Rougue being bigger more powerful and heavier I stand by my post. Chevy cand do better.....oh forgot Chevy doesn't make this......Korea I believe.
3 cylinder engine smh
Toyota 😊😊
Toyotas are nice vehicles kinda boring interiors and are overpriced nowadays plus carjackers want Toyotas safety is important to myself, quick pass on Toyota/Lexus vehicles ........
@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8 I like boring car
@@makinshaneyabes3479 If you have a newer Toyota? Carjackers are your worst nightmare and they dont come empty handed, hope you have Life insurance.......
@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8 Ive been driving Toyota’s and Lexus for 20 years. I never have problems.
🤣
Sorry but no
Biased and subjective review. Trax is way better value for the money !!!!!!
Buick Encore and Envista made in Korea. Chevy Trailblazer and Trax made in Korea. BUICK ENVISION MADE IN CHINA!!!!
Great!
They look good but they pure junk lease only if you must.
No 3C or turbos for me for $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ fix
I’d take the Chevy any day!
The Buick is hideous.
Your mother
@@alanmadrigal21 You sound like very angry little boy. I hope you find peace with the situation that makes you so unhappy with yourself.
Both are underpowered cars and we dont know the reliability go for a mazda cx30 they more luxurious and quality os way better and you get 190 horsepower compared to 139
You cant argue this the mazda is affordable too
You do realize the CX 30 has the (WORST) infotainment system in the auto industry with that outdated rotary/dial knob in 2024. Mazda needs to put in a Touchscreen.......
@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8 your worried about the infotainent your focused on wrong thing
@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8 and plus it easy to use ask people who pwn mazda i own a cx50 and it has touchscreen capabilities for apple carplay and android auto
I have a 2021 Mazda CX-30 Turbo Premium Plus. I love everything about it and the infotainment system is my favorite of all the vehicles I have owned. Much prefer to large rotary knob in the center console over any touchscreen.
8:18 Trax changes color again! So cool!
