Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Chevrolet Trax than in the Nissan Kicks. The Nissan Kicks offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Chevrolet Trax, offering the driver and front passenger a bit more room and comfort.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Chevrolet Trax as you will with the Nissan Kicks, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). When looking only at MSRP, the Chevrolet Trax will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Nissan Kicks.

Dimensions
The Chevrolet Trax is a little wider than the Nissan Kicks, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Chevrolet Trax, which is slightly longer than the Nissan Kicks.

Performance
In terms of horsepower, it's a virtual tie between the Chevrolet Trax and the Nissan Kicks.

Powertrain
With somewhat higher torque, the Chevrolet Trax transmits power to its wheels a bit more effectively than the Nissan Kicks.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Chevrolet Trax and the Nissan Kicks. The Chevrolet Trax has less cargo space than the Nissan Kicks, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
