2025 Chevy Trax

• The Trax can now take E-85 which burns cleaner, while having the luxury of being made here at home.
• The Trax comes in 5 trims, with the highest trims being made for comfort, especially in regions where the temperatures get extreme.
• This year sees two new colors join the family, helping keep things fresh from years before.

For 2025, there minor changes for the Trax, being that it’s an already well made vehicle. But there are some new things to look out for. The first new feature is two new paint options for the exterior. These are Cypress Gray, and Mariana Blue Metallic. These help it stand apart from the rest of the Trax that came before it. If you’re someone who prefers to use E-85 to power your vehicle then you’re in luck. Chevy made the 2025 Trax capable of running on E-85 fuel.

If you’re wondering what E-85 is, it’s a Flex Fuel that blends both ethanol and gasoline. While it may get you slightly less range than gasoline by itself. E-85 can be made right here at home, making it so that you won’t need to depend on foreign oil as much, and burns cleaner than gas by itself.

The 2025 Chevy Trax starts at $21,495.

The Chevy Trax rolls into 2025 with 5 trim levels to choose from, each one coming with features that make it better from the last. The trims you can look for are:

• LS starting at $21,495
• 1RS starting at $23,395
• LT starting at $23,595
• 2RS starting at $25,395
• ACTIV starting at $25,395

Before we jump into features that come on the higher end trims, it’s worth noting that Car and Driver recommends the LT. This is because “The LT is the sweet spot between affordability and features.” While the LT comes with standard features such as a “big 11.0-inch infotainment touchscreen and remote start.” They suggest that you “spend the extra cash for the optional heated front seats and steering wheel.”

If you want something a bit more than the LT trim, then you’re in luck as anything above it comes with wireless Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto as standard.

Now that we’ve gone over some of the recommendations, we can look at why the high end trims are where they are. Both the 2RS, and the ACTIV trims come with heated seats for the driver and front passenger, as well as a heated steering wheel. Both of these were mentioned in Car and Driver’s recommendation.

If you’re from the south, especially a humid state like Florida, then the Remote start function is a welcome addition. This feature allows you to get into a cooled vehicle, making sure that the only time you need to be uncomfortable is on the way to your vehicle.

The main features that are different on the 2RS and the ACTIV are the wheels. While the ACTIV sits on 18-inch aluminum wheels that are painted black that give the Trax a sleek, and sporty look. The 2RS sits on larger, 19-inch wheels that are made of machined aluminum and painted black. Both of these help your car stand out in a busy state.
