2027 Chevrolet Trax
2027 Chevrolet Trax: Versatile, Stylish, Functional and Convenient
Premier Chevrolet Cadillac Buick GMC in Windsor will carry the 2027 Trax as an entry-level crossover designed for Ontario drivers who need basic transportation in a manageable size. This upcoming model year maintains the turbocharged three-cylinder engine and front-wheel drive format that defines the current generation. The Trax works for commuters navigating Windsor’s streets, students attending local colleges, and households looking to stretch their vehicle budget further.
Powertrain
What’s new for 2027?
The 2027 edition will introduce new paint colours and may shuffle equipment among trim levels. Major mechanical revisions are not expected for this release.
Performance
The 2027 Trax will use a 1.2-litre turbocharged three-cylinder engine producing 137 hp and 162 lb-ft of torque. A six-speed automatic transmission manages shifts and sends power exclusively to the front wheels. The turbocharger assists with acceleration when merging onto Highway 401 or passing slower vehicles on County Road 42. Fuel economy remains reasonable for daily commuting between Windsor and neighbouring communities such as LaSalle or Tecumseh. Front-wheel drive keeps the price competitive and suits the vehicle’s urban mission rather than heavy-duty off-road use. This drivetrain layout handles Ontario’s paved roads and moderate winter weather without requiring all-wheel capability.
Technology
Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto eliminate cable clutter when connecting smartphones, giving access to navigation apps, music streaming, and text messaging through the centre display. Chevrolet Safety Assist comes standard on every trim, grouping automatic emergency braking, forward collision alert, lane keep assist with lane departure warning, and automatic high beams into one package. These systems monitor the road ahead and assist with common driving scenarios. Selected trims add rear cross-traffic alert and blind-zone steering assist, which scan for approaching traffic when reversing from parking spaces or shifting lanes on the highway. USB ports maintain charge for phones and tablets during longer drives across southwestern Ontario. Available Wi-Fi hotspot capability converts the Trax into a mobile internet hub supporting up to seven devices, helpful for passengers working remotely or streaming content. The heated steering wheel, offered on most configurations, makes cold-weather driving more comfortable.
Exterior
The front end features a vertical grille flanked by LED daytime running lamps that improve visibility during Ontario’s grey winter days. Black plastic cladding surrounds the lower body panels, protecting paint when navigating salted roads between Windsor and Chatham-Kent. Wheel sizes range from 17 to 18 inches across the trim range. Roof rails mount above the cabin when needed for cargo boxes or bike racks. The rear hatch swings upward to reveal storage space behind the second row. Taillamp units wrap partway around the rear fenders, and the overall shape keeps the vehicle short enough for tight parking spots near Ouellette Avenue.
Interior
The cabin centres around an infotainment touchscreen positioned at the top of the dashboard, with physical climate dials placed below for quick temperature adjustments while driving through Windsor traffic. Cloth seating covers base models, while leatherette appears on higher trims. Front seats include heating to counter Ontario’s cold mornings from December through March. The steering wheel also heats up on most versions. Two adults sit comfortably in the rear bench, with space for a third passenger on shorter trips. Folding the back seats flat creates room for larger cargo such as furniture or sports equipment. Storage bins throughout the interior hold phones, wallets, and travel mugs.
