I never understood why people care if the dashboard is hard touch. I understand and agree with wanting soft touch on armrests, but unless you plan on resting your head on the dashboard and awkwardly trying to take a nap I don't see the big deal. I never even touch my dash unless I'm wiping the dust off.

By the way you mention the fancy climate control and digital dash on LT and above which is NOT correct. You have to get the HIGH LEVEL LT for this and the 1RS also does NOT have these options, only the 2RS does. Just a note for other potential buyers.

Chevy did a great job with the styling. It's a tempting CUV, but I'm suspicious of the long-term reliability. A tiny engine stressed by a turbo, gasoline direct injection, and a wet timing belt? That's not a winning formula for a simple, dependable engine. On top of that, owners are reporting a lot of issues related to the electronics.

i bought a chevy cruze in 2016 only for the miles per gallon and was not very enthusiastic about a 1.4 turbo cuz im an old school chevy guy. i just gave my 155000 mile cruze to my daughter which still has original battery and only have put tires and brake pads and regular maintenance. chevy cruze has been a wonderful car also i dont drive like an idiot and take care of all things i own. i just bought a new 2024 trax with a 1.2 3 cykinder (wth) but this is how i felt when i bought the cruze. i have faith with regular maintenance and not flooring it after every red light that this trax will last me years for minimum cost. this is a very nicely equipped suv for a low price. take your electric somewhere else here in northern mn the battery cars dont do too good.

What are your thoughts on the battery placement? It's bolted underneath the fuse box. Can that fuse box be easily moved to change out the battery? Or are you looking at an expensive repair bill to switch out the battery?

@eugenepeters-rb8xu Күн бұрын
Sorry didn't get back right away my son in law had my Trax because I was putting new serpentine belts on his neon. He is a good hard working man but can barely operate a screwdriver lol. To me it looks like the fuse box would simply just swing up out of the way to replace battery, hopefully will be years till I have to but I'm not sweating it. My cruze had a battery under the trunk that was at least twice as big as the battery in the Trax. When I bought the cruze I figured the huge battery was because of the stop/ start feature although the Trax has stop/ start and half the battery. I don't know , I guess time will tell. My theory is regular maintenance and don't drive like your in Nascar.

I like everything about the Trax except the engine layout using a rubber timing belt emersed in the engine oil vs a engine using a steel timing chain and not a fan of small engine with turbo charger over a bigger engine that doesn't need a turbo to get power ,because it doesn't have to work as hard and will be less trouble prone later on as the engine gets a lot of miles

why would they submerge rubber in oil and expect that to last over time? that sounds like a recipe for disaster. Surely oil will be corrosive to rubber. I would think that metal submerged in oil would make more sense. I don't like that the timing chain is inside the engine either. also the battery is inaccessible. The fuse box is bolted on top of the battery. No more running to the local parts store and changing out your own battery. Now its a major repair bill. I hope the timing chain is covered under warranty.

An excellent review, and that's coming from someone who has done some review drives over the years. Don't worry about your mpg display - you were beating the he11 out of that car and it still averaged 24. My niece bought the Activ in Cayenne Orange in January and she just drove it from NYC down to your area - her dad (my brother) lives in Andover Hills. She got 41mpg on the drive there and back, and she's averaging around 28 in suburban NYC commuting. You were wise to mention the torque vs horsepower rating. Stupid people will always dwell on horsepower but it's meaningless unless you drive the car around with the tach over 6. Torque is what spins the tires, and the 162 on the Trax comes on around 2000rpm while the Kia Soul's Atkinson 2.0 makes a bit less torque at over 4000rpm. All that twist at low rpm is what makes the car feel so strong. It's an awesome car for the money. The engine will last of you change the oil every 4k miles. DI engines are very dirty and little engines need clean oil. That's not a Chevy thing - that's true for anything with direct injection and it goes double for little suitcase-sized engines with a turbo.

Well... you definitely won't win any drag races or tow any boats with it, but for only $20k, it sounds like a pretty good deal. GM was smart to remember that not everyone can afford to drop $30, $40, or $50k for a car. Sure, it has flaws and shortcomings (and a wimpy lawnmower engine)... but I don't think it's realistic to expect much more for $20k. Seems a good little entry level SUV. I think it should sell pretty well.

I have looked at a lot of new and exciting cars over the past 60 plus years, including some that proved to be absolutely terrible. One example was the Chevy Vega, which had a motor that lasted about 40,000 miles, and the body sometimes rusted out before the motor quit.. This Trax may prove to be a good car, but it could prove to be another Vega. That old car was really nice for a week and this one also seems nice. Only time will tell. One comparison for you. The Honda Accord from 40 years ago had a 0-60 time of about 11.4 seconds.

I had a 74 Vega wagon - I drove it 125,000 and it was fine. That said no snow or salt on road, 74 had fender liners, also had A/C and the radiator was h/d 4 speed, no issues. and the best mileage I ever got out of a car. Vega, Pinto, Corvair stories are just that - - urban stories. And that's from someone who worked as a tech for 17 years. Worked on them all.

@@richardwarren7492 They may be called urban stories, but I lived those stories. I had the first automotive pollution control license in Stockton, California, in the late 60s. I received lubrication training from Exxon when they were developing multi-weight oil. Ford sent me to Memphis for factory training when the 351 Cleveland came out. My last dealer job was running the tune-up department of a Chrysler dealer. One of my friends bought one of the first Vegas. He was OCD with maintenance and the motor still died at 40,000 miles. Those original silicone aluminum blocks, with the cast iron head, didn't last. Some mechanics experimented with iron sleeves from the Ford 8N tractor, but those first Vegas were so bad, nobody wanted them. Another friend bought a 1974 Pinto. Six months later, his brother-in-law bought an identical Pinto from the same Ford dealer. They found out that their keys worked on both cars. He had really good MPG for about 15,000 miles. Then it suddenly dropped in half and the dealer had no clue. I bought a 65 Corvair Monza convertible while I was wrenching at a Ford Dealer. It had the four point rear suspension and easily handled with the local ‘Vettes. It was one of the best cars I ever had, but I was young and stupid and got rid of it.

A seven day trial of a family sub? Really? I mean, in one week, just seven days when did you have time to shuttle a couple of kids to soccer or swim practice, go shopping, drive on congested hiways, park downtown, drive to a grocery store, pack it full of gear, spend a day off road, drive it across any distance full of kids,...I hesitate to think of any realistic distances you drove on any real road grades much less in varied environments between sea level and 12,000 feet. What extremes in temperature did you test in during your week? A week isn't a test, it's just checking your tires!

The deal killer is they aren't AWD. I have a Buick Encore, which is basically this car but slightly shorter wheelbase... it has the 1.3L Turbo which is a bit more fast and it's gas efficient too with an 8 speed tranny I believe. But the fact that I can't get AWD means it's a no for me since I live in Colorado. At least I couldn' find one in AWD yet, maybe they aren't out yet?
