Chevrolet to add small SUV to line-up

Chevrolet is to add an all-new small sport utility vehicle (SUV) to its model line-up. The Trax will be launched 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.

Trax can carry five passengers and will be provided with generous cargo space. It will be aimed at customers in more than 140 markets. The small SUV will be in European Chevrolet dealerships in spring of 2013, after the introduction of the all-new Chevrolet Malibu and the Cruze station wagon in 2012.
