The 2024 Chevrolet Trax LT: before you buy

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2024 Chevrolet Trax LT for sale by us right now. Here is the 2024 Chevrolet Trax LT for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

A buyer's checks

Owners filed 180 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, engine and unknown or other; have those parts checked. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.

The figures, translated

The 1.2L 3-cylinder turbo, paired with a 6-speed automatic, drives it. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

Its combined rating is 7.9 L/100 km, which means roughly 24 litres for 300 km. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $12.25 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,250 a year for 15,000 miles.

Inside and out

As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back. The body is 4.54 m long and 1.82 m wide. It fits most condo and driveway spots. With 708 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.

Good uses for the Trax

It suits people who want car handling with extra load space. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

Rent it for a week first

Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. If the Trax is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Try the Trax on your commute, then decide.

Running costs

At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.25 in fuel. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.

Narrowing it down

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
