What's New for the 2026 Chevrolet Trax?
Chevy's affordable compact SUV returns for the 2026 model year with two new exterior color options: White Sands and Apex Red.
What Are the 2026 Trax Trims & Features?
The 2026 Chevrolet Trax is offered in five distinctive trim levels. Many drivers will appreciate what the base LS trim provides. Some of its standard equipment includes an 8.0-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto smartphone integration, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and a four-speaker audio system.
Equipped with 18-inch machined alloy wheels and a distinctive grille, the 1RS trim boasts an especially sporty appearance. It also features red interior accents and a race-inspired steering wheel.
The Trax LT adds more niceties. Highlights include a larger 11.0-inch HD touchscreen, a digital gauge cluster, and automatic climate control.
Not only does the sleek 2RS trim pack a lot of style, but it also adds conveniences like heated front seats and keyless entry.
Another option is the adventurous-looking ACTIV trim. It provides more creature comforts, including a power-adjustable driver's seat.
How Much Horsepower Does the 2026 Trax Have?
Every trim comes equipped with the same efficient powertrain. Motivation comes from a 1.2L turbocharged ECOTEC engine, which develops a competitive 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque. Power is routed to the front wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission. A smooth ride and agile handling make the new Trax even more rewarding to drive.
What Safety Features Does the 2026 Trax Include?
Every new Trax benefits from standard Chevy Safety Assist, which is a collection of six advanced safety features. While Front Pedestrian Braking makes driving through the city more secure, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning helps prevent you from unintentionally drifting out of your lane. Following the Distance Indicator, Forward Collision Alert with Automatic Emergency Braking, and IntelliBeam High Beam Assist are also included.
Designed to help parents monitor and coach new drivers, Teen Driver technology also comes standard on the Trax. Cutting-edge safety innovations, such as Lane Change Alert and Adaptive Cruise Control, are also available.
