00:00Chevrolet's SUV lineup includes options of all sizes.
00:12The Trax is among the smallest.
00:15This recently redesigned model sits alongside the diminutive Trailblazer in Chevrolet's
00:20entry-level subcompact crossover lineup.
00:24The original Trax went on sale for 2015 and saw only minor changes over its production
00:29run.
00:30After skipping 2023, the Trax returns for 2024.
00:35It's an all-new, second-generation model that's a huge improvement from before.
00:39Talk about a glow-up.
00:41The new Trax looks good, not just compared to its predecessor, but against small crossovers
00:46in general.
00:47Longer, lower, and wider, it delivers more passenger and cargo capacity than the outgoing
00:53model.
00:55Every 2024 Trax is powered by a 1.2-liter turbocharged i3 engine making 137 horsepower
01:03and 162 pound-feet of torque.
01:06That engine is smaller and less powerful than the 4-cylinder used by the old Trax, but surprisingly,
01:12the 2024 Trax is quicker.
01:15The Trax comes with a suite of safety features, including front automatic emergency braking,
01:20lane keep assist, lane departure warning, and automatic high beams.
01:25Available features include adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, rear cross
01:30traffic alert, and rear parking sensors.
01:34The Trax comes with either an 8- or 11-inch infotainment touchscreen, both compatible
01:40with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
01:43USB ports are standard, and a wireless device charging pad is available.
01:48The Trax and Trailblazer are Chevrolet's smallest SUVs, and both slot into the subcompact
01:54category.
01:56Although the Trax is less expensive than the Trailblazer, it's actually slightly larger.
02:01You don't see this often these days.
02:03Something newer and better is less expensive than before.
02:08That something is the 2024 Trax, which starts at $1,400 less than its predecessor.
02:14The 2024 Chevrolet Trax, small in size, big on style, and a humongous value.
