The US-market Trax is largely unchanged from the global version, but has some US-specific features including OnStar with AT&T 4G LTE and SiriusXM satellite radio. The Trax came to the United States as a 2015 model, buoyed by the success of the Buick Encore (the Trax and Encore share the GM Gamma II platform) and possible competition from the Jeep Renegade GM initially had no plans to offer the Trax to the US market. In late 2014, the Trax was marketed to more countries adding China, Indonesia and the Philippines. Korean sales started at late February 2013. The vehicle started shipping on April 2, however pre-sales began as early as the fourth quarter of 2012 for both Mexico (1.8L) and Canada (1.4L Turbo). In Canada, the Trax was the first compact Chevrolet crossover SUV since the discontinuation of the Tracker (read below).

It was then available for test driving at the 2013 Montreal Auto Show, with four essay models shown.ĭuring 2013 and early 2014, it was only sold in Canada, Mexico, Germany, South Korea, Lebanon, United Arab Emirates and Europe.
