The Chevrolet Trax has been spied on Malaysia in a carrier truck. The Trax is GM’s compact global crossover that will go into an arena currently occupied by the Honda HR-V, Mazda CX-3, Ford EcoSport and Toyota C-HR. 

In Asean, the facelifted Chevy Trax is currently available in Vietnam. The Chevy’s 4,248 mm length is 47 mm shorter than a Mitsubishi ASX, but both have around the same width. The Trax has a 2,555 mm wheelbase and sufficient space to accommodate five persons in a comfortable high seating position, the company says Chevy. With the 60:40 rear seats folded, it can hold 1,370 litres of cargo and there are 15 compartments in the cabin.


In Vietnam, the crossover is powered by a 1.4 litre Ecotec turbo engine with 140 PS and 200 Nm of torque, paired to a six-speed torque converter automatic with Tiptronic. This should it be specified for Malaysia as well, will set the Chevy apart in a competitive class dominated by the Honda.

The images here show two trim levels. The blue car is of a higher spec, as it wears larger (possibly 18-inch) rims and silver-painted “underguard” panels on the front and rear bumper. Both cars come with LED daytime running lights, projector headlamps and fog lamps.
