My Impression
As I stated above, I was extremely impressed by the 2024 Chevy Trax. Although I haven’t driven it, I did get to check it out firsthand.
The Trax definitely has everything you need and nothing you don’t, as stated by Scott Bell, VP of Chevy. Although each trim level comes in under an affordable price of $25,000 you would never know it based on its incredible design, style, tech and safety features. Additionally, each trim has its own unique personality, along with a longer wheelbase that provides 3 inches more legroom for second-row passengers and 12% more cargo space. This vehicle is definitely great for road tripping, date nights, girl trips and fun outings.
“The all-new Trax has everything you need and nothing you don’t,” said Scott Bell, vice president of Chevrolet. “More space. More features. More style. This is an entry-level vehicle that will surprise and delight customers with its value and plays a critical role as the gateway into the Chevy brand.”
