2026 Chevrolet Trax For Sale
2026 Chevrolet Trax · South Jersey
Big-SUV Space, Hatchback Price
The 2026 Trax is Chevy's most affordable SUV — five trims, one thrifty turbo, and a cargo hold that outsizes the price tag. See what's in stock now at Lucas Chevrolet on Route 38, minutes from the South Jersey suburbs.

If you want a new SUV that stays easy on the payment and easy to park, the 2026 Chevrolet Trax is the value pick of the Chevy lineup. It starts at $21,700 (plus the $1,795 destination charge), returns an EPA-estimated 30 MPG combined, and still swallows 54.1 cubic feet of cargo with the rear seat folded — more room than most subcompacts and plenty for a grocery run or a weekend down the Shore.
Every Trax on our lot rides on the same efficient turbo and comes loaded with wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, and Chevy Safety Assist as standard equipment. Below you'll find the trims, pricing, tech, and a quick guide to which Trax fits you — and for the full deep dives, the 2026 Trax Research Hub collects our specs, trim, and comparison guides in one place.
Performance
One Turbo Engine, Five Ways to Drive It
Every 2026 Trax — LS, 1RS, LT, 2RS, and ACTIV alike — uses the same 1.2L turbocharged 3-cylinder making 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque, paired to a 6-speed automatic. There is no upgrade engine and no performance trim: the RS badges are appearance packages, so stepping up the lineup changes the look and the equipment, never the powertrain. It's tuned for efficiency and around-town ease rather than outright speed, and it delivers an EPA-estimated 28 city / 32 highway / 30 combined MPG on regular gas.
One honest note for shoppers who see a lot of snow: the Trax is front-wheel drive only — all-wheel drive is not offered on any trim. Front-wheel drive with good tires handles a typical South Jersey winter fine, but if AWD is a must-have, its in-brand sibling the Chevy Trailblazer offers it. We break the two down side by side in our Trax vs. Trailblazer guide.
Trims & Pricing
2026 Trax Trims and Pricing
Five trims span the value LS to the top ACTIV. Because the RS trims are style packages, the ladder pairs up on price: the 1RS matches the LT, and the 2RS matches the ACTIV.
| Trim | MSRP* | What sets it apart |
|---|---|---|
| LS | $21,700 | Value entry — Chevy Safety Assist, LED headlights, 8-inch touchscreen, wireless CarPlay/Android Auto |
| 1RS | $23,200 | LS-based sport look — 18-inch alloys, gloss-black accents, red interior trim, heated front seats and steering wheel |
| LT | $23,200 | Most popular — 11-inch touchscreen, digital driver display, remote and push-button start, automatic climate |
| 2RS | $25,400 | LT-based sport look — 19-inch alloys (the largest offered), flat-bottom wheel, red accents, leatherette |
| ACTIV | $25,400 | Rugged-premium top — 18-inch black alloys, Titanium chrome accents, yellow interior touches, 8-way power driver's seat |
*MSRP excludes the $1,795 destination freight charge, tax, title, license, and dealer fees; see the site footer for the full disclaimer. Dealer sets final price. Check live Trax pricing and inventory.
Technology
Technology and Connectivity
The LS and 1RS run an 8-inch touchscreen; the LT, 2RS, and ACTIV step up to the larger 11-inch touchscreen with a digital driver display. Wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto are standard on every trim, along with a built-in Wi-Fi hotspot and SiriusXM satellite radio, so most drivers can skip cords and factory navigation entirely and just mirror their phone. Upper trims add a six-speaker audio setup, and available USB-C ports and wireless charging keep devices topped up on the drive up I-295.
Interior & Cargo
Interior, Comfort and Cargo
The Trax seats five across two rows and reads roomier than its footprint suggests, with a usable back seat for a subcompact. The folding rear seat opens the cargo hold from 25.6 cubic feet behind the second row to 54.1 cubic feet with it down — enough for a home-improvement haul or a weekend of moving boxes. A few honest trade-offs at this price: there are no rear air vents, no dual-zone climate control, and no rear-seat cupholders, so a full house of passengers is a little more basic than up-trim rivals.
Safety
Safety and Driver Assistance
Every 2026 Trax includes Chevy Safety Assist, Chevrolet's standard suite of six driver-assistance features — automatic emergency braking, forward collision alert, lane-keep assist with lane-departure warning, a following-distance indicator, IntelliBeam automatic high beams, and a front pedestrian braking function. Climb the trims (or add the Driver Confidence package) and you can also get blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and rear park assist, which aren't standard on the base LS. For the latest crash-test scores, check NHTSA and IIHS directly — ratings are updated over the model year.
Find Your Fit
Which 2026 Trax Is Right for You?
Same engine across the board, so this comes down to budget, look, and equipment:
- Tightest budget / first car / commuter → the LS covers the essentials with full standard safety. See LS models in stock.
- The all-round pick → the LT is the sweet spot — the 11-inch screen, digital cluster, remote and push-button start for a modest step up. Browse the Trax lineup.
- Sporty style on a budget → the 1RS adds 18-inch alloys and blackout trim without moving up in price from the LT. Find an RS in stock.
- Maxed-out look → the 2RS brings the largest 19-inch wheels and the boldest styling. Shop 2RS inventory.
- Rugged, top-of-line → the ACTIV adds Titanium chrome accents, black alloys, and the 8-way power driver's seat. View ACTIV models.
