2016 Chevy Trax is attractive, but not without its flaws - Examiner.com

Base Price : $20,120. Price as tested : $23,115. Engine : 1. 4-liter, 138 Horsepower, four-cylinder available with all-wheel drive. Chevrolet ’s response to a class of baby SUVs once dominated by Honda, Mazda and Nissan , is the bold and attractive 2016 Trax. Small on the outside but deceptively large on the inside, Trax is easy to maneuver and comes standard with modern technology. While Trax was completely redesigned for 2015, the 2016 model adds new color choices. With ample legroom and headroom (even for a guy who’s 6-foot-5) Trax seats five passengers comfortably. Exterior design cues, such as the split grill that’s decidedly Chevy, help Trax to stand out in a crowded, competitive class. A unique bold styling with bulbous fenders really sets Trax apart from the class-leading Nissan Juke and Kia Sol. With a 138-horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque, it took about 10 seconds for my Trax to hit 60 mph – and that was with no passengers or cargo in the car. The EPA estimates Trax fuel economy at 26 mpg on city streets and 34 on the highway. Source: www.examiner.com
