The Extra Mile: 2015 Chevy Trax 2WD - Towanda Daily Review

Entry Price: $20,210. Price as Tested: $21,225. Not since the heyday of the Chevy/GEO/Suzuki "Tracker" from 1988 to 2004 has GM offered a subcompact crossover in both front drive and AWD with a Chevy "Bowtie" logo up front. Well, things have changed this year as thanks to the worldwide popularity of the compact SUV/Crossovers, Chevy has brought its all new 2015 Trax to dealers everywhere. Having already tested an AWD Trax in the past, out tester this time featured two-wheel-drive (2WD) mechanicals and a lower final price than the $25,000-plus 4x4 we initially drove. Thus, this new to U. S. consumers Chevy is already a tested success, featuring a turbocharged Ecotec 1. 4 four cylinder engine, good headroom and enough legroom to seat a six-foot tall adult in the backseat. Similar in dimensions and mechanicals to the Buick Encore, consumers can save several thousand if they decide to go with the Chevy model, as both are built on the Gamma II platform that also deliver Chevy's Spark and Sonic. Overall, I feel the new Chevy Trax will become a best seller, be it 2WD or AWD. Source: thedailyreview.com
