Five Trims with Distinct Character
The 2026 Chevrolet Trax is available in LS, 1RS, LT, 2RS, and ACTIV trims, giving buyers plenty of choices without making the lineup difficult to navigate.

The 1RS adds black exterior accents, distinctive grille styling, and sport-inspired design details for buyers looking for a more aggressive appearance. Moving into the LT introduces additional convenience features, including an available 11-inch diagonal HD touchscreen, automatic climate control, and upgraded interior appointments. The 2RS builds on the sporty theme with larger wheels, unique exterior styling, red interior accents, and additional premium features. At the top of the lineup, the ACTIV adds titanium chrome exterior accents, unique interior finishes, and styling inspired by active lifestyles.
Standard Safety Across the Lineup
Every 2026 Trax includes Chevy Safety Assist, giving every trim the same strong safety foundation. Standard features include Automatic Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Alert, Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Following Distance Indicator, and IntelliBeam® automatic high beams. Drivers can also choose available technologies including Adaptive Cruise Control, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Rear Park Assist, and Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert for additional confidence during highway driving and parking.
Technology That Fits Everyday Driving
The Trax keeps drivers connected through wireless Apple CarPlay® and wireless Android Auto™ compatibility, allowing quick access to navigation, music, and communication without connecting a cable. Higher trims add an 11-inch diagonal HD infotainment touchscreen, wireless phone charging, available Wi-Fi® hotspot capability, and additional USB ports, creating a cabin that feels more sophisticated than many vehicles in this price range.
More Interior Space Than You Might Expect

A 60/40 split-folding rear seat allows multiple cargo configurations, making it easy to balance passenger comfort with additional storage when needed. Power comes from an ECOTEC® 1.2L Turbocharged 3-cylinder engine producing 137 hp and 162 lbs. ft. of torque.
