Space Where It Counts
The 2026 Chevy Trax is surprisingly spacious, especially when it comes to cargo space. In addition to the typical fold-flat rear seats, the Trax maximizes storage versatility with the multi-level cargo floor system. When you remove the cargo floor panels, you’ll find a hidden lower storage compartment. This secure space is perfect for storing valuables, emergency supplies, or items like jumper cables and seasonal gear. The dual-level design is especially useful for families and outdoor enthusiasts, allowing you to separate wet or dirty gear from clean cargo.
The Trax’s cargo area also includes subtle yet invaluable features like integrated tie-down points and cargo nets. In addition, the cargo area sidewalls have clever storage pockets that are perfect for small items like gloves, cleaning materials, or emergency supplies.
Safety Comes Standard with Chevy Confidence
Safety and confidence on the road are a priority for Chevrolet, which is why you’ll find an impressive suite of advanced technologies in the Trax. Every model comes standard with Chevy Safety Assist, a comprehensive suite of safety and driver-assist features designed to act as your co-pilot, monitoring the road and intervening when necessary. These features are engineered to detect potential hazards and alert you, often before you even recognize the danger yourself, providing an extra layer of protection for you and your passengers.
This intelligent suite includes six key features:
- Automatic Emergency Braking: Working alongside Forward Collision Alert, this system helps prevent or minimize the impact of a front-end crash with an oncoming vehicle. When you don’t react quickly enough, it can automatically engage hard braking.
- Front Pedestrian Braking: Built to help avoid or lessen the impact of a collision with a pedestrian directly in front of your vehicle, the system warns you first, then can automatically engage hard braking if needed.
- Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning: When this system senses your vehicle drifting out of its lane without a turn signal active, it gently guides you back on course. If steering assistance isn’t enough, Lane Departure Warning sends you an alert.
- Forward Collision Alert: By continuously scanning the road ahead, this system alerts you when a potential crash with the vehicle in front becomes likely. The early warning provides crucial extra seconds to react.
- IntelliBeam: Your headlights detect nearby vehicles and automatically adjust between high and low beams. This smart system maximizes nighttime visibility while showing consideration for fellow drivers.
- Following Distance Indicator: Displays the time gap in seconds between your Trax and the car ahead, helping you maintain a safe, appropriate distance while driving.
