2024 Chevy Trax OR 2023 Chevy Trailblazer - Which to buy?

[@sagevibes3458]

I would take the Trax because it looks a baby Blazer and I really want a Blazer, but the Trax is more affordable

[@SunnynPhilly]

The trax styling is way better than the last generation. But it’s made in Korea and has a turbo 3 cylinder engine. But as a lease option not bad for 3 years/ 36

[@chippsterstephens6800]

I compared both 2024 trax and trailblazer, I chose the trailblazer, and think you missed a few things here, the engine upgrade is not just about hp and displacement, the 1.3 has a timing chain, VRs the 1.2 having a timing belt, ever see how a belt can degrade, clog the oil pickup and burn up a motor? I have, a few times. This matters 6 plus years down the line. The other issue not talked about here, is insurance rates on trax vrs trailblazer, the trailblazer insurance rates are in the top 3 lowest that can be found, the trax insurance rates substantially more, and this matters for a monthly total for transportation costs. That is the main two reasons I chose the trailblazer. The third was 3k off msrp…that brand the trailblazer into trax cost. 4 thing is the local dealer had the exact color, and every option I was wanting. A Trailblazer LS, Larger motor, convenience and confidence packs, and the fountain blue color. At around 25k otd, at 5.9%, on 72 months. Well below msrp price, OTD! Try that with a trax…..both are good low cost transport, with good tech. A nabor has a trax she loves it.

[@PAHighlander24]

The mistake many AWD drivers make in slippery conditions is driving more aggressively than their brakes can stop them. I've been passed by some such drivers who were going too fast for conditions in winter, and saw them in the ditch a mile or two later, while I was safely still traveling in my front wheel or rear wheel vehicles.

[@Buc_Stops_Here]

Very true. I need AWD as I live on a mountain in CT. Too many times I have been stranded at the bottom of the mountain with my FWD Honda and Saab with snow tires (the Saab was markedly better than the Honda, but still could not always get me home). When those cars wore out in 2013 and 2018, I bought an AWD Subaru and an AWD Buick Envision. Now with snow tires I can get home no matter how much snow is on the ground (less than 7 inches of course). The FWD cars struggled with more than 2 inches. The cars were great with FWD in northern NJ but it was a different world in CT in the mountains.

[@FleaMarketJohn]

I would choose the Trax you know heartbeat. But with a 1.3 GDI turbo, if I intended to keep it long term, I would be very loyal to old-fashioned oil changes of three to four thousand miles. Just my opinion. And if you live in the snowbelt, don't forget they still do sell winter tires which add a lot more traction. A front-wheel drive with winter tires will outperform an all-wheel-drive with Summer slicks any day in snow/ice. Standing by for all the hateful replies...

[@cormaro13]

You're going to be extremely sad when that low quality shows 😂 if you think early oil changes are going to save u think again 😂 you'll probably need a catch can and also want to sell it when all the electronics start to fail and u need ac at 50k mileage 😂

Another thing to think about with all wheel drive is tire replacement. Say you have 25k miles and you get a nail in the sidewall. You are buying 4 new tires because the all wheel drive. The all wheel drive needs all of the tires to match or you will be having driveline issues.

I am a GM retiree and interestingly, I was the District Sales Manager for Widger Chevrolet in Livingston NJ in the early ‘90s (now Schumacher 👍).

The Trax would be my choice as well. It’s one of the few vehicles that excites me. I am retired, living in Southeastern Wisconsin. We probably get a little more snow than you do but front wheel drive is fully adequate for me as well. The condition of your tires is more of a factor than how many wheels are driving you. The 2RS is my favorite looking model, but I really like the analog dash and manual climate control of the LS & 1RS. I prefer a regular key as well. I realize that it’s not 1978 anymore when I bought my first new vehicle. You could really custom order a vehicle to your exact specifications.

[@SunnynPhilly]

I like the Trax styling too, but I was disappointed to read the models shipped to the USA from Korea are 3 cylinders only. They have a 4 cylinder but it’s only available in china. The trailblazer is also a Korean made 3 cylinder so I’ll pass on both.

[@dave1956]

Dave: I’m a retiree too living in Michigan. We just got our wife an LT w/ convenience and comfort packages. As a senior, the heated seats, steering , and mirrors are a must. As well, the larger 8” & 11.2” screens are really handy with stiff hands. Losing all the RS badging makes the interior more refined/dignified.. the Trax ride and quietness are a real treat. I don’t exactly care for some of the available colors, but we got black. I think Trax is stunning in black. But they are going fast around here. I got ours when notified an incoming transport semiwas coming in with 1 car not tagged ($500 deposit). As I hurried to the dealer, the transport was just unloading and I purchased sight unseen. What a surprise seeing it in person. I highly recommend the Trax line.

[@stevendragulski7440]

Excellent video. Great comparison. The MUCH needed makeover of the Trax by Chevy is amazing. For me personally I'd go with (and just did a deal) on the Trailblazer. This is my FIRST ever Chevrolet and I'm 57. I went with the LT AWD with a couple different pkg options. We get plenty of lake effect storms courtesy of Lake Ontario so AWD is a no brainer for me. Seen enough people stuck on the highway itself on my ride to work in some of the bigger storms that the plows hadn't hit in a while.

[@dauntlessasmr7910]

Price = Trax. These two are just too similar. Why pay more for the Trailblazer if you don't need AWD? If you do, different story. Also... As messed up as it is, if you ever need to live out of your vehicle, the fact that you can fold down the front passenger seat is going to be a huge factor for some in buying the Trailblazer over the Trax. Get yourself a somewhat thick, roll-up, foam mattress, along with a sleeping bag. Find a secluded spot to park. There you go. On a more pleasant note: Maybe you need to make a solo road trip. Money a bit tight. Lower that front passenger seat and sleep one night on the road. No need for a motel. AWD and that folding front passenger seat is going to persuade at least some folks to get a Trailblazer over a Trax. But seriously, why buy a FWD drive Trailblazer with the 1.2 liter engine when you can get a similar-looking Trax, also FWD with the same engine for over $1K less money. I'm sorry, just makes no sense to get a Base trim Trailblazer over a Base trim Trax. Save that over $1K for gas at the pump.

Those help with braking and steering too, not just acceleration like AWD. Plus, you get better economy long-term.

Ok Dave. I've never purchased a domestic car. But this Trax keeps catching my eye. The only general thought about it is if I wanted a Korean vehicle I'd buy Hyundai Kia. At least I would get an additional two-year warranty on it. That being said, how much is an additional two-year warranty through GM? And in your opinion is it worth it?

It drives even worse with heat or ac on plus an added smell from the vents. Hope the new one is made better

[@WurdNinja007]

I think the Trax looks better. It's more sleek towards the rear from the side view and the Trailblazer appears more stubby.

[@zachlyyyy69]

I’ll be curious to the longevity of the Trax with its 1.2L turbo.

[@LoriH.-DreamLagoonsApt]

Thank you for the comparison video!

[@Hopester47]

I currently drive a 2020 Equinox Premier AWD. Seriously loving the Trax 2RS...seems like it's close to the same size as the Equinox...and. LOT less $$$!! The only negative I see with the 2RS Trax is the small sunroof...love my panoramic sunroof! Thanks for the comparison 👍

[@kayleelinder4911]

I’m debating between a equinox premier and the 2023 trax

[@cormaro13]

Sell it lol

[@TechOutAdam]

It’s simple, if you’re going hiking and into the mountains you must get four wheel drive. If you never care to hit the mountains, the Trax is incredible.

[@russellbertles53]

Love my new Trailblazer!

[@LA-py2iu]

If the trax had a power lift gate and fold down front seat I would trade my trailblazer. Especially if they had the oasis blue. It’s worth it that I got mine earlier since I don’t like the fountain blue.

I bought the tracks for My Wife and she loves it 2024 and I work for a Chevy dealer lol

[@Cruzan9]

For me it's comfort. I have a couple of physical issues. Getting in and out comfortably as well as seat and armrest comfortably are important. That's especially true for commutes. They both look good to me. Trailblazer is boxy and is like the distant cousin of Jeep (looks only) and the other is like baby brother to midsize styling SUV. I suspect they both perform roughly the same way. At the end of the day I think I'd just test drive both. I'm also considering the Envista. I like that coupe sedan look. Hard to call it an SUV. LOL

[@thilehoffer]

I have and would buy again the Buck Envista just because it looks cooler and has a better warranty. Also, doesn’t the touch screen have a new computer in the Trax? Isn’t it more responsive? Not sure…

[@HuyVu-et1gv]

Thanks for a very informative video. Looks like Chevrolet has got a couple of winners here. The Trailblazer is a little older and its sales numbers are going down. This means you might be able to find a good deal for it. The Trax is totally sexy looking. The only thing with it, apart from FWD only, are the tail lights. Why did they have to over style the taillights like that?

[@dolan447]

Fwd with good winter tires does the job really really good, i got a Chevy Cobalt and i live in a hilly neighborhood in Quebec where we get alot of snow. I think that an awd isn't necessary plus i really don't like how the trailblazer looks so yea Trax definitely

[@monicahassebrook3302]

2 weeks ago I purchased the 2024 trax 2RS and I absolutely LOVE it! The fuel mileage is great, it's comfortable and it is just a great looking car! pictures and video truly don't do it justice!

@@mattnorman5241 If she did, she can probably sell it for more $$ right now than she paid for it! Cha-ching!!

[@Raider19582]

I like both but I'd choose a Rav4 or an Hr-v.

[@avi-raaj]

One of the Best Review i hav watched, and perfectly explained

[@baham9217]

The kicker for me was the front passenger seat in the Trailblazer folding down for additional length of cargo space. That's it. I agree about AWD, but I'll take that as an advantage for the Trailblazer, as well. I do like the styling of the Trax, too; I'm looking forward to the Trailblazer refresh and the new colors.

[@angelfieseler5358]

Trail blazer all the way

[@LebronFan216]

@@angelfieseler5358yea their a Chevy dealership literally next to me I seen both and thinking bout trading in my Kia forte GT for it honestly I know it’s faster but I want a small suv and my gf already have a 23 Kia sportage so I need a digital display lol but yea trailblazer all the way!!!

[@trevorb5557]

Little off topic, but wonder what your thoughts are on the Buick Envista? Drove a Trax Activ over the weekend and was very impressed but like the added bella and whistles of the Envista. The pricing on these are unbelievable!

[@eringould6203]

I just bought the same Trax you had in video & I absolutely love it ❤

[@DaveBsellsChevy]

Awesome! Congrats!!

[@helainefossier]

Great comparison video and very informative. I really like the Trax. I have a 2020 Toyota CHR and I’m thinking about getting the Trax.

[@SunnynPhilly]

The trax is sold as the seeker in china 🇨🇳, it’s already been sold there for a couple years. The one’s heading to the USA are built in S Korea.

[@Redrockett5817]

My trax now haa the front seat that folds down i really like that, but, thats not the only thing. I dont like how the trax doesnt have cup holders or arm rest in the back. They both look nice i also like AWD.

[@Kassiyaa]

Great video! This made me feel a lot more comfortable about the trax not being AWD, thinking about trading in my 2021 trax for a 2024!

[@NickTwisp80]

I've always suspected some customers just want the AWD because they think it's better or for vanity reasons. When I lived in New Jersey, any substantial snowstorm would tie up the roads to the point where traffic hardly moved. Having AWD does no good sitting on the Garden State Parkway in a snowstorm creeping along at 15 mph.

[@SunnynPhilly]

Plus they are both Korean made with turbo 3s, I think I’ll stick with my naturally aspirated v6 4Runner (even with the mpg penalty.)

[@GOCARTV-kt3sx]

Really impress on all new design Trax, Thank for your video comparison 😍

[@garymiller1977]

We have had several makes of cars and the Chevrolet brand is my favorite. Great features and looks at a good price. I like both the Trax and Trailblazer, but still will choose the Equinox.

[@bradbarefoot2986]

When will we see the Montana Pickup ? I'm with you, the Trax wins my business. I want a LT model with a few options. Thanks !
