2016 Chevy Trax: A Practice in Versatility

Written By, NowCar Team

Because subcompact SUVs provide the height and the power of an SUV with the drive and fuel economy a car, this has become a very popular segment for those buying cars online. Manufacturers are tasked with the job of creating a versatile SUV while staying fresh and relevant in an already overcrowded SUV segment. Chevy took this challenge came up with a compact vehicle that offers better gas mileage, extra cargo and passenger room all while presenting a stylish ride. Thier contribution: the 2016 Trax.

 

Trax is Turbocharged

Employing Chevy Sonic’s turbocharged engine, the Trax is sure to provide you with the necessary amount of power you require when sitting in an SUV. And, that’s another thing: when you sit in a Trax, you’re sitting in an SUV. The raised suspension provides the height that you’ve come to expect while looking out on the road. Additional head room provides spaciousness that all passengers benefit from. The lengthened base means extra cargo room for your whatever your excursion may be.

As a subcompact SUV, the Trax was intentionally designed to utilize every inch of space. As is the allotted cargo space in the rear of the car measures 18.7 cu ft. With the rear seats flipped down, it reveals a useful 48.4 cu ft. With tough competition existing in this segment, Chevy recognizes the importance in staying competitive by offering the most room for whatever it is you fill it with. Be it picnic baskets, beach chairs and bags or luggage for your weekend getaways. The Trax’s versatility remains supreme for any person on-the-go.

Beating out the competition in technology, fuel economy and storage compartments, the Trax will flex to fit whatever lifestyle you lead.

 

Supreme Safety

Never willing to compromise safety for price or size, Chevy has engineered the Trax utilizing top safety features to prevent, protect and respond to any possible situation that may arise. Very rarely do we see and have time to properly respond to an accident that is about to happen. Chevy designs their safety features to capture these moments in hope of preventing an actual accident from occurring.

Prevention is about staying focused and alert. While the driver controls so much of this, what happens when they can’t. Chevy takes over by employing StabiliTrak Electronic Stability Control. Drivers of compact vehicles will often say silly things like “I can park anywhere! This is a compact car!” and while for the most part that’s accurate, Chevy likes to help those people out with available Rear Park Assist and Standard Rear Vision Camera. So, next time you’re backing into a space, you’ll have Chevy helping you anticipate what’s behind you.

The 2016 Chevy Trax has a safety cage that is made from high-strength steel. There are also 10 airbags that will deploy on any impact.

With no faster response device on the market today, Chevy employs the use of OnStar which is available. OnStar Automatic Crash Response comes standard for the first 6 months of ownership and OnStar Automatic Advisor will send for help should there be no response. While Chevy understands so much of safety prevention, protection and response is the driver’s responsibility, they do what they can to help in any way. Given the most precious cargo, are those we can’t replace.
