How we verify Chevrolet Trax performance data

We include only independently published road-test results from automotive publications. Manufacturer-claimed 0–60 times are excluded unless clearly labeled. When multiple publications test the same Chevrolet Trax trim, each run is listed separately — weather, tires, surface, rollout, and instrumentation all affect results.

Chevrolet Trax performance FAQs

6 questions
The quickest Chevrolet Trax on record is the 2024 Chevrolet Trax Activ, which runs 0–60 mph in 8.5 seconds and clears the quarter-mile in 16.50 seconds at 82.7 mph.
The slowest recorded Chevrolet Trax is the 2015 Chevrolet Trax LT, which takes 10.1 seconds to reach 60 mph and runs 17.50 seconds in the quarter.
Averaged across all 10 verified runs, a Chevrolet Trax reaches 60 mph in 9.29 seconds and completes the quarter-mile in 17.06 seconds at roughly 80.2 mph.
We have verified test data for 3 model years. Each year shows every recorded run, the publication that measured it, and the trim-level details.
Every figure is sourced from published road tests by Car and Driver and Motor Trend. We don't use manufacturer claims — only independently timed runs — so the numbers reflect what the car actually does.
0–60 and quarter-mile results depend on driver technique, ambient temperature, tire condition, road surface, altitude, and testing instrumentation. A published figure is a single sample, not an absolute — which is why we show the range of verified runs rather than one number.

0–60 and quarter-mile times vary with driver, weather, tire temperature, and wear. We collect every verified run we can find — so you see the range of what a Chevrolet Trax can do, not a single marketing claim.
