The Chevrolet Trax's current nationwide average price is $18,581, and its year-round low is $17,134.45.

Is the Chevrolet Trax a good car?

Yes — the Chevrolet Trax earns strong marks from owners across its model years, and its value-focused formula is a big part of the appeal. The all-generations owner rating is 4.42/5 across every model year in the data.

Owners consistently praise its sporty styling, compact size, and good fuel economy. They also tend to like the comfortable ride and the technology found in newer versions. Expert reviews rate the 2024 and 2026 models among the highest across all years.

What Chevrolet Trax do most buyers choose?

The Chevrolet Trax years with the most listings are 2025, 2024, and 2026.

Those high-volume years tend to be the most popular used picks because they give you the broadest selection and the strongest mix of pricing and deal availability. They also reflect the newer second-generation Trax, which brings more modern tech and a roomier cabin.

What is the Chevrolet Trax's resale value?

Most Trax model years are showing declines year over year, which can work in your favor if you’re shopping used. The newer second-generation models are also moving down from higher starting points, while older first-generation examples continue to soften at a slower pace. That pattern gives you more room to find value across the lineup.

The 2015, 2016, and 2024 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
