The Chevrolet Trax, an all-new small sport utility vehicle, will join the Chevrolet portfolio and make its debut at the Paris Motor Show in September 2012.

"Trax provides Chevrolet an entry into a growing small SUV segment and delivers the flexibility, great fuel economy and car-like handling that urban explorers require," said Susan Docherty, President and Managing Director of Chevrolet Europe.

With room for five passengers and generous cargo space, Trax will meet the needs of customers in over 140 markets. The small SUV will arrive at European Chevrolet dealerships in spring of 2013, following the introduction of the all-new Chevrolet Malibu and the much-awaited Cruze station wagon in 2012.With the new Chevrolet line-up at showrooms across Europe, the coming years present an exciting opportunity for further growth.

Trax exhibits its SUV toughness and capability in a small package through a muscular exterior design and wide athletic stance. While its contemporary form evolves the global Chevrolet design aesthetic, Trax's interior will be executed to standards usually found in more expensive vehicles.
