Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Chevrolet Trax than in the Subaru Crosstrek. The Subaru Crosstrek 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
With the Subaru Crosstrek, you will definitely be making fewer stops at the gas station than with the Chevrolet Trax, due to its tank size and fuel economy.

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). Clearly, the Chevrolet Trax is a better financial choice over the Subaru Crosstrek, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
The Chevrolet Trax is a little wider than the Subaru Crosstrek, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. When looking at overall length, the Chevrolet Trax takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Subaru Crosstrek.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Chevrolet Trax has a lot less horsepower than the Subaru Crosstrek.

Powertrain
With its lower torque engine, the Chevrolet Trax doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Subaru Crosstrek.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Chevrolet Trax and the Subaru Crosstrek. You'll be able to fit about the same amount of groceries in the Chevrolet Trax as you will in the Subaru Crosstrek.
