Let’s take a closer look at the 2024 Trax, and when you’re done reading, you can visit DePaula Chevrolet, and our team will be happy to show you everything it has to offer.
Pricing and Trims
The 2024 Trax has a budget-conscious starting price with features that would have you believe otherwise. Its base model, the LS, has an affordable starting price of $21,495.[a] The Trax LS is an incredible offer with more standard features than you may be used to seeing in a vehicle in this price range. However, the LS isn’t alone, and if you want to add onto what’s already a stellar value, you can opt for one of the other trim levels like the LT, 1RS, 2RS, and Activ. Five trim levels keep the shopping experience simple, although the base LS model is sure to satisfy a majority of compact SUV drivers. The five trim levels increase over the two trim levels seen on the 2022 and 2021 models, which are the returning LS and LT.
Some Changes to the 2024 Trax That Are Worth Noting
Something to note about the 2024 Trax is that a couple of things have changed. The first difference stems from an engine change; the 2022 Trax and its recent predecessors use a turbocharged 1.4L I-4 engine paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission. For the 2024 model, this was replaced with a turbocharged 1.2L I-3 engine paired with the same transmission, producing 137 hp and 162 lb-ft of torque.
The 2024 Chevy Trax has also gotten bigger since the 2022 model. Fitting longer and wider cargo is not as difficult in the 2024 Trax because you’ll always have an impressive 25.6 cu.ft. of space, up from 18.7 cu.ft. in the 2023 model, a nearly 37% increase. Folding down the back row of seats increases the maximum cargo space to 54.1 cu.ft. of space instead of the 48.4 cu.ft. in the 2022 model, around 12% more. The extra cargo room was a needed change, and it’s a change that has been praised by both fans and critics alike.
Technically Stunning
One of the best things about the 2024 Trax is that you won’t have to place too much consideration into the tech features you may be missing out on because the assortment of tech that comes standard with the SUV is sure to satisfy most drivers. Best of all, the Trax includes features once considered exclusive to pricier models but have now begun appearing on more cost-effective automobiles. For example, the 2024 Trax comes standard with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, both built into the 8-inch infotainment center. This starkly contrasts to the preceding model, which came with a 7-inch touchscreen with the classic Apple CarPlay and Android Auto variant that requires a USB cable plugged into the infotainment center.
The best tech features found on the 2022 Trax make a reappearance for the 2023 model, including Bluetooth connectivity and a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, but the most significant differences come down to the screen size and the implementation of wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. However, there is one more thing; if you purchase a higher-tier trim of the Trax, like the 2RS, and Activ, you’ll get a larger 11-inch touchscreen which lends the Trax a new level of interactivity like it never had before. The 11-inch touchscreen is also the largest infotainment center screen to ever appear in the Trax, and it truly feels like Chevy has ushered the Trax into the modern era.
More Good News
There’s more good news about the 2024 Trax; it comes standard with Chevy Safety Assist. Chevy Safety Assist is a suite of safety features designed to take advantage of the latest in safety technology, making every facet of the driving experience safer in some way. Some critics were understandably left underwhelmed by the safety features provided by the 2022 model, but Chevy looked to rectify this with the 2024 model, and the implementation of the modern Chevy Safety Assist suite fixes this problem.
The Chevy Safety Assist suite comes with a plethora of safety features, including forward collision alert with automatic emergency braking and front pedestrian braking. The forward collision alert signals an audible alert if the Trax suspects a front-facing impact is about to occur. If you’re unable to stop your SUV in time, automatic emergency braking brings the vehicle to a halt to prevent the accident or reduce the severity of the impact. Front pedestrian braking has the same effect but will activate if a bypassing pedestrian unexpectedly steps in front of your vehicle. Chevy Safety Assist also comes with lane keep assist with lane departure warning, which will help you keep focused on the freeway. In the event your vehicle ever begins deviating its lane, your Chevy Trax will apply slight torque to the steering to gently steer you back into the right lane.
Luxurious Comfort
If on-road comfort, luxury, or both mean something to you, you’ll want to consider a trim level like the Activ. With the 2024 Trax Activ, you’ll not only have a heated steering wheel wrapped in leather, but you’ll have heated mirrors and seats. Best of all, the chair you’ll be sitting in will provide you with nothing but pure comfort, with a 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat with added power lumbar support to protect your lower back from strains and injuries. Aside from getting to your destination safely, you may as well get there in the most comfortable way possible, right? The 2024 Activ is reasonably priced with a starting price of $24,995, so these luxurious amenities are in addition to the host of features that come standard on every preceding trim.[a]
