If you are shopping for a small SUV that packs big practicality, modern tech, and standout style, the 2026 Chevrolet Trax deserves a top spot on your list. Sized right for city streets yet roomy enough for weekend gear, this redesigned nameplate continues to deliver the comfort, connectivity, and confidence that busy Colorado drivers want. With standard Chevy Safety Assist, a flexible interior that swallows cargo with ease, and an available 11-inch center HD touch-screen, the Trax proves you do not need a large footprint to enjoy a richly equipped drive. Our team at Emich Chevrolet is ready to help you compare trims, explore colors, and schedule a tailored test drive so you can get to know the Trax on your terms.
Whether your daily routine takes you downtown, up the hill, or across growing neighborhoods near Denver, CO, the Trax blends thoughtful features with smart packaging. Drivers from Littleton and Arvada will appreciate how the Trax balances capability with comfort, and how its intuitive technology makes every commute feel easy and connected.

The 2026 Chevrolet Trax slots into the small SUV space with a sleek, athletic look and a surprisingly spacious cabin. Five distinct trims make it simple to match your style: LS, 1RS, LT, 2RS, and ACTIV. The ACTIV trim underscores an adventurous vibe with Titanium chrome exterior accents, blackout wheels, and striking Yellow interior touches, while 2RS leans sportier with Red interior accents, a race-inspired flat-bottom steering wheel, and bold Black exterior details. Inside, standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and wireless Android Auto™ keep your apps in reach, and an available 11-inch center HD touch-screen elevates your command center. A 60/40 split-folding rear seat, up to 54 cu. ft. of max cargo space, and comfortable seating for five make the Trax an easy fit for errands, carpools, and weekend escapes. Safety confidence comes standard thanks to Chevy Safety Assist with features like Forward Collision Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Following Distance Indicator, and IntelliBeam® High Beam Assist.

Across the lineup, the 2026 Trax brings a polished balance of design, technology, and utility. From its crisp LED lighting and upscale trim touches to the quiet cabin with Active Noise Cancellation, the Trax is engineered to make daily life simpler and more comfortable, without losing that confident Chevrolet character.
The Trax’s ECOTEC® 1.2L Turbo powertrain is tuned for responsive around-town acceleration and smooth highway cruising. Turbocharging delivers accessible low-end torque, lending that confident pull you want for merging, passing, and climbing grades on Front Range drives. The lightweight design helps the Trax feel nimble in traffic and composed over winding roads. Paired with a transmission calibrated for everyday drivability, the result is a small SUV that feels zippy when you need it and relaxed when you do not — an ideal dynamic for urban errands and mountain-bound weekends alike.
Standard Chevy Safety Assist brings a suite of six advanced safety and driver assistance features to every Trax. Forward Collision Alert and Automatic Emergency Braking help detect potential front-end collisions and can assist with braking. Front Pedestrian Braking helps the Trax respond to pedestrians directly ahead. Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning helps the vehicle stay centered when markings are visible. Following Distance Indicator displays a helpful time gap to vehicles ahead, and IntelliBeam® High Beam Assist automatically toggles your high beams when it detects oncoming traffic. These features work together to add peace of mind and support attentive driving throughout changing Colorado conditions.
The available 11-inch center HD touch-screen places a bright, intuitive interface front and center. Menus are logically organized, touch targets are generous, and graphics are crisp, making it easy to navigate media, calls, and vehicle settings. Pair it with the 8-inch diagonal color Driver Information Center on select trims for a cohesive digital cockpit that puts key vehicle and trip info where you expect it. The result is a tech-forward cabin that feels modern and welcoming, especially when combined with standard wireless smartphone integration.
Practicality is a Trax hallmark. With up to 54 cu. ft. of max cargo space when properly configured and a 60/40 split-folding rear seat, it adapts quickly to your day. Load up home improvement finds, camping gear, or sports equipment without the guesswork. The rear seat accommodates passengers and cargo together when needed, and the flat load floor helps larger items settle securely. Five seats fit most adults comfortably, which means the Trax is equally at home doing school runs or airport pickups.
Standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and wireless Android Auto™ eliminate the cable clutter and keep your favorite apps right on the infotainment screen. Navigation, music, podcasts, and messaging feel seamless. Add available wireless charging to reduce cord dependency further and consider the available built-in Wi-Fi® hotspot to keep passengers connected on longer drives. Together, these features turn the Trax cabin into a connected space that supports work, play, and everything between.

We recommend outlining your must-have features first, then test driving two trims back-to-back. That approach makes it easier to feel the difference in seating touches, interface layout, and overall vibe — and ensures you configure the Trax that fits your life from day one.
