October 9th, 2020 by

One of the smaller Chevy SUVs, a dark gray 2020 Chevy Trax, is driving away from a city near Buford, GA.

 

Chevy has a long-running reputation of offering an excellent overall experience in their SUVs. In fact, Chevy SUVs, more often than not, excel in every category from performance to safety, and especially to comfort. One of the best offerings thus far has been the Chevy Trax. So we have to wonder, will the 2021 Chevy Trax be as great as vehicles past? And with a plethora of innovative features and cargo space, we at Rick Hendrick Chevrolet of Buford feel that it is safe to say: The 2021 Trax is better and more comfortable than ever before. Let’s take a closer look at the details, though, to get a better understanding of how and why this is true.

Chevy Trax as a Model

The first Chevy Trax was released for the 2015 model year. Throughout the years, this SUV has maintained its solid performance and only continued to upgrade its interior. Generating 138 hp since its release, the Trax’s performance needs no change, as it perfectly serves its purpose as a daily driver.

But with the constantly-evolving world of technology, upgrades in that regard have been necessary. Luckily, the Trax has kept up. While there were not many changes from the 2020 model to the 2021 model specifically, the Trax’s evolution over the years has been fantastic. And the 2021 model offers incredible comforts, technology, and the same reliable performance that it has throughout the years.

Performance

The 2021 Chevy Trax offers a smooth, reliable, and efficient ride, all of which is very difficult to balance. But this is a balance that Chevrolet has done very well in the 2021 Trax. By implementing the long-loved, 1.4L turbocharged engine, capable of producing 138 hp and 148 lb-ft of torque, the Trax continues to satisfy drivers everywhere.

Plus, the 2021 Chevy Trax, as aforementioned, is extremely efficient. When equipped with FWD, the Trax gets 26 MPG in the city, 31 MPG on the highway, and 28 MPG combined. These numbers are extremely impressive for an SUV. And though the efficiency drops slightly to 24 MPG in the city, 29 MPG on the highway, and 26 MPG combined when equipped with AWD, the Trax is efficient either way. In all, this performance has been quite consistent through its seven models, and it continues to serve drivers nicely.

Technology in the Trax

Beyond performance, technology plays a significant role in what makes a vehicle great. Over the years, technology has developed fast, and Chevy has taken note and continued to develop the Trax to fit consumers’ wants and needs. These days, technology does not only mean fun, but it also means safety. And the 2021 Trax offers features for both ends of the stick.

The 2021 Trax has many safety features to offer, some standard, some as upgrades. These features include, but are not limited to, ten airbags for maximum crash safety, and, of course, a wide variety of driver assistance features. With a rearview camera for tricky parking situations, as well as side blind-zone alerts, the 2021 Chevy Trax assists drivers in being aware of their surroundings.

Plus, possibly the best safety feature of all, the Trax has Chevy’s well-known Teen Driver program. This allows parents to set certain limits in the vehicle, such as stereo volume and speed, and even gives them a report on how their teen is driving when they are not in the car. With this specialized program, Chevy is providing something extra special to help parents keep their teens safe.

These safety features are fantastic. But technology in the Trax is not only used for safety; it is also utilized for fun and entertainment. This fantastic SUV offers features that are usually thought to be only in high-end, expensive luxury vehicles. Some of these include cruise control, Bluetooth connectivity, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and possibly the most luxurious feature, a WiFi hotspot. In all, this vehicle is safe and fun, but what about convenience?

Convenient Cargo Space

A family needs a lot of space, that is not a secret. Whether it is sporting equipment for that important game or camping supplies for that trip you have been planning for months now, every inch of space in a car is important for the most important people. Luckily, the 2021 Chevy Trax has an outstanding amount of cargo space, making for a very convenient ride. With 48.4 cu.ft. of total cargo space throughout the SUV, the 2021 Trax has enough room to carry just about anything you need to haul. It truly is convenient.

Customizing Your Chevy

While all of these features we have gone over have been great, one of the most important pieces to picking a car is finding one that suits you just right. The good news here is: Chevrolet has always been a brand very well-known for its large commitment to customization, allowing drivers to always get what they are looking to find. And of course, the 2021 Chevy Trax is no exception to this devotion, offering one of the most individualized experiences in purchasing a SUV to date.

Offered in an LS and LT variant, with the LT offering more features for a slightly higher price, the 2021 Chevy Trax can be bought with nearly any experience you have in mind. Plus, the 2021 Trax is even more customizable as the LT trim also offers a Midnight Edition and a Sport Edition, that offer modifications to the 18-inch aluminum wheels, and coloration to your taste and preferences. If you’re looking for a more noticeable and sporty vehicle, than these special editions may be for you. But no matter what, you can find a Trax that fits your desires.

What Will You Do With Your Trax?

Overall, the features that the Trax has to offer translate to a very important factor when it comes to picking an SUV: Versatility. All families are ultimately very different, and all want or need something different. With the customization options that the Trax provides, it has the capability of filling any family’s needs.

Plus, with a stamp of reliability across its front, the 2021 Trax can get you and your family wherever you need to go, whenever you need to go there. So, the only question left is, “What will you do with your 2021 Chevy Trax?” Does your family enjoy long days at the beach? Or maybe you enjoy sightseeing the long, historical roads of America? Either or, the 2021 Chevy Trax is the family SUV that will make all of these trips more enjoyable.

With outstanding performance overall, near-infinite amounts of cargo space, comfort, and technology to the brims, there is no reason to choose any other SUV this season aside from Chevy’s newest version of the Trax. It is the most comfortable family vehicle this model year. And with a plethora of new technology and features, the 2021 model year offers one of the best experiences in safety, performance, and comfort in its class.
