If you are in the market for an affordable compact SUV, be sure not to overloook the 2026 Chevrolet Trax.
The feature-packed Trax packs an impressive amount of technology, comfort, and safety into a size that's easy to manage every day. If you're running errands or heading out for a weekend adventure, the Trax is built to keep up.
Five Trims to Match Your Style
The 2026 Trax comes in five trims: LS, 1RS, LT, 2RS, and ACTIV. The entry-level LS covers all the essentials, including Chevy Safety Assist, Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™, and LED headlights. The sporty RS trims bring red interior accents, black bowtie emblems, and a race-inspired flat-bottom steering wheel. The ACTIV trim leans into bold style with Titanium chrome exterior accents and striking yellow interior touches. There's also a Midnight Edition available on the LT, adding high-gloss black exterior details throughout.
Trax Specs 2026: Power and Efficiency Under the Hood
The Trax runs on a 1.2L turbocharged 3-cylinder ECOTEC engine producing 137 hp and 162 lb.ft. of torque. It's paired with front-wheel drive and delivers an EPA-estimated 30 MPG combined. It won't tow a trailer, but it handles everyday trips with ease.
Technology That Keeps You Connected
The Trax comes loaded with connectivity features. Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ are standard, so you're never fumbling with cables. Step up to the LT or higher trim and you'll get an available 11-in HD touchscreen along with an 8-in color Driver Information Center. Available upgrades include wireless charging, a built-in Wi-Fi hotspot, and a remote vehicle starter system. These are features you'd expect from vehicles priced significantly higher, which makes the Trax a smart value proposition.
Safety You Can Count On
Safety is where the 2026 Chevy Trax really earns its reputation. Every trim includes standard Chevy Safety Assist, a suite of six driver assistance technologies. Those features include Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Forward Collision Alert, IntelliBeam® High Beam Assist, and a Following Distance Indicator. Available upgrades include Rear Park Assist, Adaptive Cruise Control, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, and Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert. The Rear Vision Camera and Teen Driver Technology also come standard.
Cargo Space and Comfort for Five
The Trax seats 5 adults comfortably and offers up to 54 cu.ft. of maximum cargo space with the rear seats folded. A 60/40 split-folding rear seat gives you flexible options for hauling both passengers and gear.
