Chevrolet Tracker Performance Overview
Chevrolet’s Tracker occupied the brand’s small SUV performance space for the 1999 to 2001 model years covered here, with 3 verified tests spanning those two years. All tested examples fall within the First Generation (1999–2004), and all use naturally aspirated gasoline powertrains rated from 127 to 165 hp. Early results placed the 1999 5-door Hardtop at 12.2 seconds from 0-60 mph, while the 1999 3-door Convertible lowered the mark to 10.6 seconds.
By 2001, the Tracker’s quickest recorded form was the ZR-2 5-door Hardtop, which cut 0-60 to 10.3 seconds and ran the quarter-mile in 17.7 seconds at 77 mph. Across the available tests, the model averaged 11.03 seconds to 60 mph and 18.23 seconds in the quarter-mile at 75 mph, showing a narrow but measurable spread between body styles and trims.
Within this data set, the Tracker’s performance story is short and consistent rather than segmented into multiple eras: one generation, one fuel type, and modest gains by the final year tested. That leaves the 2001 ZR-2 as the current benchmark in the visible results, with the present-generation best still standing at 10.3 seconds to 60 mph.

When multiple publications test the same Chevrolet Tracker trim, each run is listed separately — weather, tires, surface, rollout, and instrumentation all affect results.
