- The 2024 Chevrolet Trax is GM's most affordable new car available today, so we want to see if it's worth jumping into or if there are better options on the market when it comes to FWD subcompact crossovers.

This week on PRN_TestDrive we're behind the wheel of the 2024 Chevrolet Trax Activ, the top-level trim for Chevrolet's cheapest new vehicle on the market today. We go over the specs and features found on the new Trax, how it differs in size from the older one, and what place it fits into when it comes to the marketplace of 2024's subcompact crossover offerings.
TestDrive is proudly produced in St Thomas, Ontario, Canada.
I've had my 2RS since Aug 23 and have 12k miles. It's fantastic! Run and test drive one for yourself. Then pick your flavor, you can't go wrong! I've done several videos on mine, here on YT.
Glad to hear it, enjoy yours! These are great little cars, and come in some fun colours.
@user-ek3gd5wm8i
Just a FYI. The engine has a wet timing belt and not a timing chain!
Hopefully you will trade it in before warranty runs out.
I have the 2RS and love mine. Great bang for your Buck!
Glad to hear it! We're seeing a lot of these on the roads now, definitely a popular option for buyers. We're glad we featured this one!
I have the same from September 2023, but I didnt buy the 5-7yrs maintenance package which cost $5000. Now I got none for maintenance, just have a question was it bad if I don't have one?
@chaupham2786
You should have purchased the maintenance package. This car has a wet timing belt and not a timing chain!
I'm just testing your reply claim regards to comments. Thank you.
And here's our reply! We get back to as many comments as we can. Some aren't constructive, so we can't say we reply to every single one, but if someone makes the effort to post something the least we can do is take the time to read them and reply. For us, it's all about the community! We want to be as engaged with our viewers as we can be, without it there's not much point in doing this! Thanks for commenting!
I have had my 2 rs for 2 weeks now and im loving it. It is perfect for my lifestyle.
Glad to hear it! We were really impressed by this one.
I just put a 10k down payment on a new 2025 Activ Fully loaded. Grey Metallic. It wasnt on the lot yet but i cant wait to test drive it and then take it home.
Hope you get it soon! I don't think they're taking orders for 2025s yet here but I doubt there will be any significant changes. Enjoy yours once it arrives!
Sure do like it. Bought a 2024 Trax with Activ package, really like it so far. No complaints. Price was ok considering looking at other vehicles... bear in mind, this is my 1st brand new vehicle ever, and the newest car (the one I just traded in) was an 09 Focus, so first time having a car with all the bells and whistle's of a modern car... so perhaps I'm easily impressed...
Still... I'm liking it.
Glad to hear it! We're spotting lots of these on the roads already.
Do you think they utilized the 11” navigation panel or is it awkward to use. I am driving a Pontiac Vibe, sounds like the noise level is similar at 65 miles//hr. Does it have enough pep to enable you to transverse lanes competitively. My big question is the reliability factor on this?
I found it to be peppy enough passing traffic on the highway. Reliability will be key, luckily there isn't a whole lot to go wrong on it.
Keep up the great work (videos)
We're planning to! We're off to a great start in 2024 with more awesome vehicles booked into Spring.
I didn't know this channel was active again.
That’s an unfortunately common thing we hear. Despite never taking a break, we’ve had consistent content with more frequent videos 6 months ago. Hope you get to find more of our content!
Have you tried the adaptive cruise control on this? How does the stereo sound?
Adaptive cruise worked out well, just like any other GM vehicle we've driven. The stereo is alright, nothing special, and nothing very powerful. It's fine for casual listening to music.
I have the activ 6 speaker model, if you go into the EQ settings, turn the bass up, turn the mid-range up, add a little treble, it sounds really good!
It even sounds better playing through Bluetooth, you can make additional sound adjustments on your phone.
My iPhone 15 Pro Max paired up w/o issue on the first go...
🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️
Good on Chevy, an affordable everyday driver vehicle with some good looks! Not paying more than 25k for a stupid new car, not gonna do it!
I wish more brands would follow suit, we need more affordable options for people.
Ended up getting a 2023 Mitsubishi RVR with AWC over this, wish it had an AWD option otherwise just for the nice interior id have loved to go with this
Nice choice!
They should offer AWD option for $2K more.
That is what the blazer is for
@@bernie6355 This looks better than the Trailblazer
I imagine a lot of people will be asking for AWD, I don't necessarily see GM offering it though. The Trailblazer is getting a revamp to match the styling designs of this.
The automatic climate control on 3 of the trims is a deal breaker for me.
Why's that?
I want to see the Trax and I get forced to watch a Honda commercial???
Honda paying the big bucks it seems!
3 cylinder. No thanks. Too bad because it looks so nice.
The 3 cylinder though is actually a bit of an established engine for chevy, so it's more tried, tested, and reliable. Also i hear actually driving one, the torque is far better than you might expect and still makes passing and putting power down solid and better than ud imagine.
On top of that, the money saved on the power train which is sufficient for commuting nicely, allows you to get what matters which is a nice interior, modern tech, and a pretty damn cool looking car w space
It isn't 1970. We don't need V8 muscle
Turbo 3 cylinder. 😢
That's the direction the industry has been moving in as regulations get stricter for emissions control. Considering my size I didn't find this engine was any worse off than a 4 cylinder in a larger vehicle.
People complaining about 3 cylinder engines should remember that the bigger Ford Escape and the Nissan Rogue also have 3 cylinders.
