The all-new Chevrolet Tracker has been introduced at the 2019 Shanghai Motor Show this week ahead of an expected arrival in China and other developing markets later this year.
The Tracker is another crossover for emerging markets based on General Motors’ new GEM platform. Positioned as an entry-level b-segment crossover targeted at the so-called Internet generation, it has an angular and youthful appearance that is complemented by modern-looking LED headlights and taillights.
There will also be a Tracker Redline available from launch, which Chevrolet China says has “an even more dynamic appearance.” This model receives black Chevrolet bowties in the front and back, a gloss black grille, black 17-inch 10-spoke wheels, and red and black exterior elements.
Unlike the 2020 Chevrolet TrailBlazer, which is expected to replace the current Chevrolet Trax in the U.S. and Canada, this global Chevrolet Tracker is not expected to be sold here. The GEM platform was designed for developing automotive markets specifically, such as China, Latin America, and Southeast Asia, so you won’t see any vehicles with this platform in the U.S. and Canada.

The TrailBlazer, by comparison, rides on the new GM VSS-F platform, or Vehicle Strategy Set – Front, which is a new flexible platform that is expected to underpin numerous future GM cars and crossovers for global consumption.

So GM continues with a dual market strategy for Chevrolet. No wonder US production are getting squeezed by foreign competitors…
That said, I like the new Tracker. I find it very attractive. I hope it will be a very capable little CUV.
They both look Great!!! Very sporty and modern. It will be interesting to see what the upcoming refreshed Equinox will look like. The Trailblazer should sell like crazy if they keep the price in check with competition. The Blazer was a bit pricey.
With not much more than appearance to go on, I’d pick the Tracker over the Trailblazer. Too bad it’s not destined for North America…
Hope it’s designed and built better than the last POS that held that name in the 90’s. Working on one right now and wishing GM parts websites would at least list the thing so I could find the numbers for all of the ‘discontinued’ parts I’m having to replace, made by a company that went belly up (Suzuki). Good riddance.
Looks like a little brother for the 2019 Chevrolet Blazer.
