Purchased my 2024 Chevy Trax LS (Entry level) on February 14, 2024. Same 3 cylinder turbo engine, nice fresh body style, At a price of "21, 495.00." The best subcompact on the market now!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I always appreciate your honest reviews.

Ya that 1.3l with only 155hp is the only bummer. Don't give me wrong, it does the job very well with the 9 speed automatic, but sometimes we wish we had more power.

I have this vehicle except mine doesn't have the moonroof or the charging thing. Which were not important to me at all. I've had it for about a month now and no complaints! I was used to a Chevy Cruz LT that was manual. So this was a big change for me. I heard all about the slow acceleration etc but I have had it on the highway a few times now and I don't have any issues with it getting up to speed at all. It's a nice ride, it's very roomy inside which I like a lot and so do my kids. Love the heated seats and steering, which I feel spoiled with now. Overall for me its a great little SUV. Great on gas! I do find however the break to be touchy. This could be because I was used to manual and when I did drive an automatic I found the breaking to be touchy. Mine also has sport mode which is pretty neat. Front and all wheel drive.

Great review . . I agree with everything you said . . that instrument cluster wouldn't work for me. I like to see at least all four "normal" gauges, permanently available to glance at right in front of me.

I just got the 2024 LT trim level. I LOVE my car!!! However, it's frustrating that I have a powered liftgate, but do not seem to have the hands-free option. Further, I can not figure out if I have the adaptive cruise or not. I can't seem to find definitive info/video to confirm. To clarify, I believe I have all the fancy options, stopping just short of the sunroof (I don't miss it, I'm not a real fan of them)

[stephenwinter]

In Canada heated steering wheel and heated front seats are standard equipment

[TheCXTKRS]

Honestly really the top trim especially if they have additional options available could ever be considered a good value as they start to step on the toes of the entry level model above them.

How many miles on it now and how does it handle. Looking at one this week

[otherZinc]

I'm buying a 2025 Loaded Trailblazer, Equinox, or Blazer for my daughter next week to go back to college. Researched everything and these are the best 3 options with ease.

And, I don't care about gas at all.

[johnthyen]

I got great gas mileage on my 2024 trailblazer 42 mpg hwy

[RickMomterrosa]

LoL we waited to buy this Trailblazer new twards the end of this year .. 20K is worth it.

[brianmerrill]

Ya I think of the higher trim as a 260 hp at least

[yurkshirelad]

Likes - AWD, 9 speed auto, styling, size. Dislikes - GM, engine, digital instrument cluster.

[Jfavorite]

I own one and kept it under 27K. I like the vehicle but would never pay 34K for it.

[seand]

3 cylinder with only 30 mpg's on the highway? Is Chevy serious??

[stephenwinter]

Greetings from southern Ontario Canada I really enjoyed the video but what is life driving a 3 cylinder engine because of the strength of the engine on the highway 😮

[StevenSmith-nqrh]

It sucks to get the good stuff you have to get the LT, RS or Activ.The LS is blah.

[althomas]

Underpowered when loaded4 adults and luggage.

[MikeL]

Has pep, but just way too slow overall. Plus you're gonna tell me that Chevy made a 3 cylinder 1.3L engine and still can't get us above 29 MPG on the highway?? gtfo
