Damn this guy is a real pro reviewer. I have been looking for a new car and this is by far the most comprehensive and useful video i have come across. This dude's take is great and it's shot incredibly well.

@dee32693 6 лет назад

this kind of car would be perfect for me lol...i dont care about it looking luxurious or whether it has an arm rest, i care about it being bigger than a car but smaller than a big suv

I own a 2017 Trax and I really like it... it handles great (turns on a dime), it small so it parks anywhere and it has everything I need in terms of tech. A lot of the bitchy people here don't take into account that not everyone wan't a heavy/big car and I have never had a honda, toyota or ford that I liked. Don't like it, don't buy it... but Other than me I know three people with one and no one is unhappy with the purchase.

What’s the exact 0-60 with only 138 hp because I don’t know if I want to buy it if it doesn’t have power, I honestly love Trax but the power of the car is holding me back allot and I don’t really care about going fast. All I care about is needing to catch up if I’m in a dent situation

@bmw803 6 лет назад

Who cares. Who actually really times and cares how fast does this vehicle reach 60 MPH once you get on the onramp? I never understood this marketing tactic. 98% of people couldn't care less if it takes 6 seconds or 12 seconds. Is that a major issue if it takes a second or 2 faster? ( or slower )? At the end of the trip, what's the difference?

I bought a 2017 LT Trax in March 2017. I looked at plenty of other so called crossovers and this was jam packed with features. It rides like a dream.Sips gasoline and has plenty of punch with it's turbo engine.Sunroof,Bose sound,sat radio, 110 volt outlet and so many other creature comforts, I cannot understand why anyone would not like this 2017 LT Trax. My '94 Caprice station wagon is still a daily driver for my son and me when I need to feel a V8 (330,000 miles on it).This Trax will no doubt be the same sort of long lived vehicle.CHEVY RULES.! Station wagons are destined to return. Love it.!

At this rate, it seems like it could be one of the most common cars of all time, behind the Model T and the Beetle. Do people really love these cars that much? Is it just because they're cheap?

HR-V isn't made of gold or some super car that will never break. People have this perception that Honda never has problems and they're something from outter space. They have their problems. Just like any other car. I sat in one recently and it's all the same shit. Cheap plastics and economy material. I used to think the same thing, but I see a shit load of older chevy's on the roads. Cobalts, Sunfires, Uplanders, etc. I do hate GM as a company, but to say that the cars are complete shit, I disagree.

To be honest like the rest of these comments, what's the use of this segment? Just save a few thousand to get a more practical yet good looking compact crossover. In fact I hardly see any subcompact crossovers. The most popular models I see are the HR-V, Crosstrek (if you want that vehicle to the segment), and Renegade. Hardly see the CX-3 and the Trax.

@seihanda671 7 лет назад

The very point of subcompact crossover is it offers the practicality of medium SUV (you called it compact crossover) but at the same time offers similiar economic value as city car and hatchback. For short, It offers the benefit of both medium SUV and Hatchback without sacrificing too much what costumer need And for such a new segment they doing realy well worldwide!! Maybe not for US, not yet actualy because the subcompact crossover selling trend is rising That's why the carmaker companies see subcompact crossover as promising segment

Dear followers!! Don't let the beautiful pictures confuse you . Anyone who buys a new car from GENERAL Motors the chance you threw your money into the trash is very large. In this company there is no customer service, the company's management does not care at all, if you have a problem or a malfunction, you can only pray to God there is a chance that the help will come faster. GM is a very dangerous company, be careful and keep your money safe.!!!Share so more people don't get screwed.GM is a big bluff
