This model’s mechanical design can be described as an all-terrain version of the Sonic, with which it shares its platform. Let's see how things went with this second encounter with the Trax. Also: 2017 Chevrolet Trax : a Little Facelift.Oh, and let's not forget the Buick equivalent of the Chevrolet Trax, the Encore. You can also add the Mitsubishi RVR and MINI Countryman to the list, although the latter is much more expensive and more sophisticated from a technical standpoint. Jeep has joined the party with the Renegade, as has Fiat with the 500X. In recent months, Mazda has unveiled the CX-3, while Honda is preparing to market the HR-V, a compact version of the very popular CR-V. This past February, while our part of the world was in the grip of a Siberian cold, I had the chance to take the Trax for another test drive to see if it remained competitive in a category that now includes several models. What's more, when I tested it in Ottawa in December 2012, my first impressions were positive. Unlike what went on a few years ago, this model seems to have been well planned and its execution is above average. (where it is enjoying a certain amount of success) and it continues to be available in Canada, where everyone seems to love it.


Two years later, however, the Trax is now sold in the U.S. The American manufacturer was, in some respects, blazing a new trail by offering a model that was practically the only one in its class at the time. Back then, it wasn't sold in the United States and being a Canadian exclusive isn’t always an accurate gauge of success. When the Chevrolet division launched this compact SUV a little more than two years ago, there was no shortage of naysayers.
