that speedo's framerate is really something.

its like 3 fps xD

The camera can’t keep up with the LCD display, and the speed updates in longer increments to avoid distraction.

First time watching one of your video reviews. It's refreshing to have no reviewer talking (blathering). You conduct the business of driving the vehicle without pointing out things that any idiot can see for themselves. I must confess that my right foot was pressing the floor when you hit 60 MPH on that back road.....I've never done that before watching any other review. Thanks and well done.

[@TurfSurf]

Totally agree, every other reviewer is like here is the front headlights, here are the cup holders and here is where you put your phone, some even like to play fantasy auto designers.😂

Sir, did you swap model in the middle of the video? And why do you insist on driving this Trax like it were a sport car?

[@Carfan678]

Considering this as my first BRAND NEW car purchase

[@keithbraddehmann320]

Torque off the line seems great....obviously acceleration drops off since 137hp isn't exactly ideal but for the price point it seems quite adequate.

[@theminicooper]

4:25 you can see the flasher indicator lamp in the dashboard lag when he turns it on... LOL

[@TurfSurf]

Looks like the low end torque is pretty sufficient on this car!❤

[@hypershadow87]

*The most interesting part about this video to me is that although it says you drove the Trax Activ, you actually drove everything BUT the Activ. You drove the very base model Trax LT which was the red one you showed yourself getting into at the beginning and out of at the end of the video. However, from **6:39** to **9:28** you drove a yellow Trax 2RS. I know they all have the same powertrains, but there are slight differences between all of them inside and out and I just wanted to see the Trax Activ during daytime driving for a change as opposed to everyone's RS or base only videos.*

[@trashrabbit69]

Finally, they gave the Trax an interior that isn't a total shitcan.

[@midnightexpress1567]

I like the flat bottom steering wheel. How did you get that in any other trim but an RS?

[@krismine99]

It's the RS. The grille is different on the Activ, so this is the 1rs since it's also cloth

[@hypershadow87]

​@@krismine99*Actually since it has the digital gauges, it's actually the 2RS.*

Why 3 cylinder in the suv

[@rileygame2373]

I don't think it's a Activ. It's a LT

[@Beansorcerer6969]

That little 3 cylinder is going to blow sky high😆

[@antoniocampos6627]

Just so people know, this is an LT trim level, not an Activ trim. Not sure why they thought it was an Activ.

It’s not an Activ. Clearly marked LT.

It appears you were also driving a yellow LS model. In future videos please honk the horn so we know if it's quite wimpy or loud enough to alert other drivers. I haven't seen any other reviewer do this. And those vents don't appear to be angled well. Can you adjust them?

@@brq4cars this is pathetic by euro standards, this isn't even good for our market

[@maximeparent3004]

And no all-wheel-drive. The only reason why the Trax sold well in the past is because it was one of the least expensive all-wheel-drive crossover you could get. All the older Trax i see around here are all awd. It's just a marketing technique to put older Trax buyers behind the wheel of a Equinox or Blazer.

@@maximeparent3004 which hatchback currently for sale in the U.S. has more cargo room than what CUV? As for visibility, and smaller windows, that is an industrywide design trend. The Mazda 3 hatch has very small windows and a huge c-pillar blind spot.
