The 2024 Chevy Trax adds seven new exterior colors to its palette: Nitro Yellow Metallic, Cacti Green, Fountain Blue, Harvest Bronze Metallic, Blue Glow Metallic, Cayenne Orange Metallic, and Sterling Gray Metallic. Here’s our first look at the new Gray hue.

Assigned RPO code GZB and touch-up paint code WA-180H, Sterling Gray Metallic is one of 10 exterior colors offered on the crossover, which include:

  • Summit White
  • Mosaic Black Metallic
  • Crimson Metallic
  • Sterling Gray Metallic (new for 2024)
  • Cayenne Orange Metallic (new for 2024)
  • Blue Glow Metallic (new for 2024)
  • Harvest Bronze Metallic (new for 2024)
  • Fountain Blue (new for 2024)
  • Cacti Green (new for 2024)
  • Nitro Yellow Metallic (new for 2024)

Sterling Gray Metallic is a no-cost item that is available on all trim levels and can be combined with all Trax interior colorways.

For reference, here are all six available interior colorways offered on the 2024 Trax:

  • Jet Black/Gray with Blue accents
  • Jet Black/Gray with Red accents
  • Jet Black with Blue accents
  • Jet Black with Yellow accents
  • Jet Black with Red accents
  • Jet Black with Artemis accents

GM debuted the next-generation 2024 Chevy Trax over a year ago as the Bow Tie’s new entry-level crossover.

On the outside, the 2024 Chevy Trax incorporates the Bow Tie brand’s latest design language for internal combustion-powered models, taking after the Chevy Blazer crossover. The all-new Trax is longer, lower, and wider than the preceding model. Up front is a set of LED headlamps, configured within a dual-level cluster. Five trim levels are on offer – LS, 1RS, LT, 2RS, and Activ – each including their own unique styling bits, from wheels to grille treatments.

Furthermore, the 2024 Chevy Trax offers a new Blackout Package and new roof rack cross rails.

Inside, the new 2024 Trax is roomier than the preceding model, and offers more safety features and tech, including a standard eight-inch diagonal infotainment screen on LS and 1RS trims, while higher-end LT, 2RS, and Activ trims get an 11-inch screen. Further onboard tech includes Active Noise Cancelation and cruise control, while Adaptive Cruise Control is offered on most trims.

Improvements to the 2024 Chevy Trax’s turbocharged 1.2L I3 LIH gasoline engine help bring total output to 137 horsepower at 5,000 rpm and 162 pound-feet of torque at 2,500 to 4,000 rpm. It is the same powerplant found in the Chevy Trailblazer in LS and LT trim levels. Additionally, the 2024 Trax boasts improved fuel economy over the previous-generation 2022 Chevy Trax.

Only front-wheel drive is available while the outgoing Trax offered an all-wheel-drive option. Those who would like AWD will need to move up to the aforementioned Trailblazer.

Praise for the Bow Tie brand’s subcompact crossover continues to pour in.

The 2024 Chevy Trax was one of 10 GM models among North American Car of the Year candidates, competing with six of those in the 2024 North American Utility Vehicle of the Year category.

In addition, the all-new Chevy Trax won the J.D. Power 2024 U.S. ALG Residual Value Award.

Furthermore, the next-gen Chevy Trax was named among Car and Driver 10Best Trucks and SUVs for 2024.

In case you missed it, GM Authority Executive Editor Alex Luft was also quite impressed with this legitimately good model that drives as well as it looks. He described the all-new 2024 Trax as “the Corvette of its segment,” particularly when it comes to handling prowess. Check out the video below:

  6. My 2018 Trax is smaller, and perhaps not as ” hip” as the redesign, but, it’s much faster, more solid all wheel drive, and aging well into six figures.
    The new ’24 colors all look nice ( sans the cacti green) the price is nice, let’s see how they hold their value and mileage.
