Here at the Mid-Missouri Powerhouse, when scores of customers come to pick out their next vehicle, we understand budget is a driving factor! Recent years have seen an uptick in higher-level features, and Chevy is no exception.
GM president Mark Reuss had some incredibly high praise for the new Trax model over the past week, publicly claiming that it “is the finest entry-level” Chevy to be released in many years. While many inquisitive eyes were on him at the recent GM Investor Day event, the upcoming product roadmap was fully revealed. So many successful plans in life-sized ventures have worked out regarding giving customers intense benefits at a low price point, and the Trax offers all of this with incredible individuality to boot.
After a personal test drive, he reflected that its youthful energy was infectious and that it was an excellent choice to be manufactured in high volume immediately. The 2024 Chevy Trax offers design language like the Chevy blazer crossover, but with harder angles, a large central grill, and thin upper lighting. The incoming model is lower, longer, and much wider than the previous model with wheel sizes at 17-, 18-, and 19-inch variants.
Inside, you get more than entry-level offerings from just about any other brand, as elevated standard safety and tech features are waiting along with a standard 8-inch infotainment screen. You can opt for the 11-inch screen in higher trims while enjoying other features such as the Chevy Safety Assist tech suit and Active Noise Cancelation. The power source is the 1.2-liter Inline-3-cylinder gas engine, now rated at 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque sending power to the front wheels.
In these images, you can see a firsthand look at this model painted in the Mosaic Black Metallic paint, and ideally decked out for the New Year in the 2RS outfit. Up front, you can see the effect of the dual-layer headlight arrangement found on other recently introduced Chevy products, and an RS-specific front grille along with a Black Bow Tie front-and-center. When this prototype was spotted stealthily roaming around in the wild and caught by a skilled photographer, the exhaust tips were tucked under the rear, with its telltale red RS badge on the passenger side of the liftgate.
The 2024 model now marks an important era here at the Powerhouse for this popular crossover’s second generation, boasting the same wide appeal across many demographics and a useful 12-percent increase in cargo capacity.
