Chevrolet Trax concept

Chevrolet will present three minicar concepts at the New York Auto Show on April 4th. An image of the Chevrolet Trax has been released but the Chevy Beat and Groove will remain under wraps until the show begins. All three Chevrolet concepts are based on GM's global mini architecture (Gamma platform) and were designed at the Incheon Design Studio in South Korea. The four-door Trax is powered by a 1-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine and it sports a two tone paint scheme with lower panels and fenders treated in a darker, matt-finish orange hue.

According to Chevrolet, the three minicar concepts were designed to appeal to young car buyers in urban markets. Effectively, with its cheeky fascia and boxy volume the Trax seems to be aimed directly at Scion's typical customer, but maybe also to those who would consider a Smart Fortwo, due to enter the American market this year. These Chevy minicars are presented in New York to gauge the interest of the American public for this type of vehicle.
