Head-Turning, Aggressive New Styling

Haven’t looked into the Trax since 2023? Forget everything you knew. Since 2024, the Trax’s design is sharp, athletic, and has a commanding presence on the road. With a look inspired by its AWD sibling, the Chevy Blazer, the Trax boasts a wider stance, sleek LED headlights, and a confident front grille that makes it look far more expensive than it is.

For 2026, Chevy is introducing two gorgeous new colors to the lineup: White Sands and Apex Red, ensuring your new Trax will stand out in any parking lot.

Each trim level offers a unique personality. The sporty RS trims feature bold red interior accents and blacked-out exterior details, while the ACTIV trim comes with rugged titanium chrome accents and exclusive 18-inch black aluminum wheels. No matter which you choose, you’re getting a vehicle with serious curb appeal.

An Incredibly Spacious and Well-Designed Interior

One of the most surprising features of the 2026 Chevy Trax is its cavernous interior. Thanks to a longer wheelbase, the 2026 model offers an astounding amount of rear legroom—more than many midsize sedans. At 38.7 inches, even your tallest friends will be comfortable in the back seat, making it a perfect vehicle for trips with the family or a night out with friends in Omaha.

The cabin is not just spacious; it’s also thoughtfully designed. The dashboard is modern and driver-focused, with easy-to-use controls and high-quality materials for its class. Plus, with 25.6 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats and a massive 54.1 cubic feet with them folded down, the Trax has more than enough room for groceries, sports equipment, or luggage for a weekend getaway.

Cutting-Edge Technology That Keeps You Connected

The 2026 Chevy Trax is packed with the latest technology to make every drive more enjoyable. The LS and 1RS trims come standard with a generous 8-inch infotainment touchscreen, but the LT, 2RS, and ACTIV models upgrade to a stunning 11-inch diagonal HD color touchscreen and an 8-inch digital driver information center.

Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility are standard, allowing you to seamlessly connect your smartphone for navigation, music, and more without fumbling with cords. Other available tech features include a Wi-Fi® hotspot, wireless phone charging, and remote start, making the Trax a true tech-lover’s dream.

Advanced Safety Features Come Standard

Your peace of mind is paramount, which is why every 2026 Chevy Trax comes standard with Chevy Safety Assist. This comprehensive suite of six advanced safety and driver-assistance features includes:

Automatic Emergency Braking
Front Pedestrian Braking
Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning
Forward Collision Alert
IntelliBeam® Auto High Beams
Following Distance Indicator

Peppy, Turbocharged Engine Perfect for City and Highway Driving

Under the hood of every 2026 Trax is a peppy and efficient 1.2-liter turbocharged 3-cylinder engine, delivering 137 horsepower and a robust 162 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a smooth 6-speed automatic transmission—a welcome feature in a segment dominated by CVTs—the Trax offers responsive acceleration that’s perfect for city driving and confident merging on I-80.

While it may not win many drag races, the powertrain is engineered for real-world performance and outstanding fuel economy. You can expect an impressive EPA-estimated 30 MPG combined (28 city/32 highway), saving you money on your commute.

Five Distinct Trim Levels to Match Your Style

Chevrolet knows that one size doesn’t fit all, which is why the 2026 Trax is available in five distinct trims, each with its own unique flair and an affordable price point.

LS (Base)	$22,995	The value-packed base model with all the essential features.
1RS	$24,495	A sporty take with unique 18-inch wheels and red interior accents.
LT	$24,495	The sweet spot of the lineup, adding the 11-inch touchscreen and other conveniences.
2RS	$26,695	The ultimate in sporty styling with 19-inch wheels and premium materials.
ACTIV	$26,695	A rugged and adventurous look with unique accents and badging.

The interior color and material options are tailored to each trim above LS, from the sporty Jet Black with Red accents in the RS models to the adventurous Jet Black with Yellow or Artemis accents in the ACTIV model.

Unbeatable Value for a Modern SUV

Perhaps the most amazing feature of the 2026 Chevy Trax is its incredible value. With a starting MSRP well under $25,000, the Trax offers the style, space, and technology of a vehicle costing thousands more.

Starting at just $22,995, the Trax proves that you don’t have to break the bank to get a new vehicle you’ll love to drive. It’s the perfect combination of affordability and desirability, making it an ideal first new car or a smart choice for anyone on a budget who doesn’t want to compromise.
