I love the way the base model looks but I would be willing to bet dollars to doughnuts that turbo charged 3 cylinder engine will not see 100k miles, maybe 150k.

@@johnlozauskas778 I mean its a chevy, to get 150k miles you should be very happy. To expect any more is crazy, especially with an engine with ANY Turbo charger.

My 24-year-old daughter bought one in June. She has the base trim. I’ve driven it and am impressed with the 3 cylinder turbo, although I do worry about durability. I think it rides great, the back seat room is amazing, and it looks like a baby Blazer. Another concern I have is that twice it has failed to shift into drive and the dealer claims there’s nothing wrong with it. Obviously there is, but it’s an intermittent thing. She paid a smidge over 23000 for it (US dollars). As far as the lack of AWD, it’s not a priority. I’ve lived in heavy snow states all my life and never have had AWD. Never been stuck in 48 years of driving. Tires and intelligent driving matters. Great review as always.

The 1.4 litre turbo 4 cylinder engine the old Trax had, wasn't a great engine. I had one in a Cruze and I'll say it like this: the long block was actually decent, but it had some really bad parts bolted to it that could distroy the long block. It took a lot of maintenance to keep that car healthy(mostly chasing leaks fortunately for me). But I sold the car with 320k kms to a coworker for his daughter. It still runs perfectly fine, doesn't burn any appreciable amount of oil, the valve lifters are noisy but that doesn't threaten the drivability. I've discovered that there are worse engines out there(ie Ford 1 litre ecoboost, why soak rubber belts in oil?) I don't think the fact it's a 3 cylinder is a durability concern, the turbo is my point of concern. It could be this new engine is good and will silence critics, I will watch this car with interest and hope your daughter has a good experience with hers. To my point about turbochargers, my current vehicle is a Toyota hybrid with an Atkinson cycle engine(which is almost the inverse of turbocharging).

@nodak81

8 ай бұрын

Biggest thing with any turbocharged engine is frequent oil changes. Normally I stick with every 5k miles or even 7.5k but with a turbo I would actually stick to the 3k interval. I would also have the coolant changed every 30k. Those engines are tiny and have to work hard, they need TLC if you want it to last.

when i went to test drive this car, there were more used cars than new. So i asked why i was being shown only used cars to test drive and the reply was "The car is in huge demand". So immediately my next question was "then why you have so many used?", So the salesman replied "People wanted bigger car". So that made me think for a moment and i asked for a test drive on freeway or a bigger road, and trust me when i say this...at 60 MPH this car screams for help.

Was looking at this vs the Soul. Ended up with the Soul based on a price break and the warranty. The Soul is also shorter so it's a bit better to park in the city. But I was impressed with Chevy's effort here.

EXCELLENT review! You guys hit the nail on the head; this is the perfect starter vehicle or for those coming out of a sedan (2wd) & want a bit more space.

Too many pseudo-novice reviewers focus on all the negative because they think it makes them sound profound and it actually just makes them sound stupid and inexperienced. I love the looks of this new Trax, it’s all grown up, sporty as ever; I love it. The value per dollar is UNBELIEVABLE, EVERYTHING YOU GET FOR $24,0000., especially in this day and age where auto manufacturers are practically raping customers with sticker prices so inflated on EVERYTHING, it’s a wonder anyone can afford to a buy any new car at all! I actually love the looks of this Trax so much, I went to test drive one yesterday. I was shocked when I stepped on the accelerator pedal of this tiny 1.2 liter turbo 3 cylinder; WOWWW! It was quick; so torquey and punchy. This little 1.2 liter 3 cylinder turbo engine packs a punch. I had a blast driving it. I was also impressed with how roomy it was, 38.9 inches of rear leg room; great cargo capacity. This new Trax has grown so much larger opposed to the last generation, this new Trax looks like a midsize SUV, in comparison. Chevrolet really knocked this one right out of the park !

Compared to a Corolla Cross, this is the vehicle to get. Toyota dealers will charge you way above MSRP if you can even find one. While the Toyota may be better, the back seat room is a joke and you'll be dealing with markups. Toyota dealerships have become the scum of the earth. I tried to buy a Sienna and couldn't believe what these dealers are doing. I don't care how "good" their vehicles are, I won't do business with criminals.

In regards to FWD versus AWD if you live in deep snow stick with AWD. I live in Alberta and for 5 years i drove a FWD Mini Cooper S. It is a chore some days to get from A to B with a FWD Car in winter even with good winter tires. I have driven Big Semis/motorcycles/SUV's and Pickup trucks and finally just went back to a F150 pick up truck this last week, 2016 sport model with the 2.7 V6 ecoboost with a 100K on it for the same price as this car is brand new. These little cars are great if you live in the right place like vancouver or the Island. But speaking from living in Alberta Canada for 28 years you should really have something with AWD/4WD and good winter tires. With the right combo you get thru winter with way less headaches.....

Very Good Report, I never had four wheel drive all the years I worked and if I had to stay home for one or two days in the winter it wasn't worth getting a four wheel drive, I don't need four wheel drive to go to Walmart or C/T or Zehrs, why spend more money on a car?

oooohhhh - gosh something like this might get me out of a sedan as it has the budget factor working for it. I agree FWD - height is more important than AWD - snow it is all about not being lifted up off the pavement - it should be just fine in my case - sedan in deep snow I get very worried AND when it gets to like -35 that darn snow turns into like a rock so you can easily have it dent the side running boards and fenders if you get out of the ruts (coming out of a lane, I could not figure out how to do the turn as the side cuts in - it was like rock sounds - off the ground makes all the difference in not being "concerned" and it still gets good mpg (height often works against that).

I am a huge fan of the car. I’m not sure that I would buy one, it’s a little smaller than the 2018 CR-V that I am currently driving. I live in Wisconsin where AWD is desirable but heck, I drove rear wheel drive for 25 years and survived. I find that suitable tires are more important than AWD.

Hi. Love your car reviews! Have been a great help to me. But there is one thing I love more. Andrea, I love your boot outfits!! Looks like you are wearing white knee high boots under your jeans, here. Can you give a girl some advice on how to do the knee high boots under jeans look? Thanks so much, and keep on with your videos.

This Daewoo does look pretty great. As a GM division in Korea they have been making decent vehicles for the brand. I know the IQS from JD Power is high, but what about the longer term VDS JD Power survey that looks at problems per 100 vehicles after 3yrs of ownership? What's the track record there?

Nelson is my lover and under my protection!

This is a great looking car.

Great video...Getting a car for my teenage son, this one seems appealing, but aside from the AWD, how does it compare to the Subaru Crosstrek, I know you like that car, still the better choice? and does the Chevy have the adaptive cruise on the lower levels like the Subi?

My opinion not Motormouth: Crosstrek is a lot better off roading, you get AWD and 1 inch better ground clearance and I think the infotainment is bigger. I have heard its really stupid and hard to use though. Cheapest CT is 25.5k USD and cheapest Trax like 20.5K USD. Also I would go with used Crosstrek if you want to go that way and used Trax is a terrible idea, they updated it 2024 for a reason. If someone would give you a 2022 Crosstrek Crosstrek for saving money and potentially looks, a lot of people think Ctrek is girly or too angular. If money is no object 24 Crosstrek Wilderness looks dope af

@@dougschmidt368 another good consideration thank you!

I was in the market for a Blazer (or maybe an equinox) but holy cow, the price point on this is pretty crazy for what you get. I learned it is made in Korea and now it all makes sense…no UAW to contend with over there!

Would the Trax be a better comparison to the Hyundai Venue, rather than the Kona?

With tiny engine and tiny turbo, will out lots pressure of the turbo to maintain speed. Just like Honda and their 1.6 turbo , can’t see the be reliable in the long run.

I've always said that about GM. They get knocked for the same thing Toyota gets praised for and they are just as reliable. It's almost ridiculous how much journalist like to rag on GM and they are great vehicles

Will you be doing 23 or 24 trailblazer?

Nice color

Hello, I do like this SUV looks sharp.

As always, I love your Reviews. Is Andrea getting better looking? Ok "Value" car, but, 4 Wheel / All Wheel Drive is NOT just about Snow. Front Wheel drive is just not good in pouring rain on the freeway, think CA and FLA; stick with All Wheel Drive, way more responsive in an emergency and keeping from being in an emergency. Thanks again.
