If you’ve been looking for a tech-forward small SUV and haven’t yet checked out a Chevy Trax for sale, you owe it to yourself to see it in person. The Trax is a subcompact SUV boasting a wallet-friendly price tag, but don’t let its small size or cost fool you; the 2025 Trax has tons of great technology features that will impress and surprise you! We know how popular the Trax is for commuters and roadtrippers alike. With its solid fuel economy and configurable cargo space, how could people who spend lots of time on the road not love this standout Chevy model?

If you face a long daily commute or are looking for that perfect automobile adventure companion, you need good technology features. They can help you find your way, learn pertinent information along the way, stay in touch with friends, coworkers, and family, and stay entertained. Some even help you be a safer driver. Considering its budget-friendly cost, you’ll love how many great tech features come standard or available in the 2025 Trax. Let’s look inside!

Wireless Compatibility and Charging

Let’s start with wireless smartphone compatibility. You can connect your Apple or Android device to your vehicle’s infotainment system without the use of USB cords. That means you will have the freedom to enjoy your favorite music, utilize your preferred navigation app, and look up the weather report on the vehicle’s touchscreen rather than your phone’s small screen.

Because you can leave the cords at home, you won’t have any unsightly wires dangling between your phone and the screen. Instead, you will have a tidy front seat area. There is even available wireless charging, so you don’t need to bring USB cords at all if you don’t want to. When driving a small SUV, going cord-free in the driver’s area can create a more spacious feel without all the clutter that comes with having to bring an abundance of other accessories.

An Available 11-inch HD Color Touchscreen

We talked about the entertainment system that you will be controlling your phone apps on, now let’s look at it. The 2025 Trax has an available 11-inch HD color touchscreen. That’s 11 inches of crisp, bright, and responsive screen area for you to see your turn-by-turn directions, current playlist information, incoming calls, and more. For its vehicle class, this is a very generously sized touchscreen.

A Built-in Wi-Fi Hotspot

Want to stay connected on the go? There are plenty of reasons why having the internet in your vehicle is useful. From looking up directions to a new destination to finding coffee shops along your route to checking for traffic updates, there are plenty of tasks you can do in your vehicle when you have Wi-Fi. Good news: the 2025 Trax has an available built-in Wi-Fi hotspot. Now, you might be wondering, “Why get a vehicle hotspot when your phone has internet?” Consider this: if you don’t have an unlimited data plan, you might run out of data at the most inopportune moment, like when you are completely lost in a new city and need to use your navigation app.

If you do have unlimited data, you might just go through areas of spotty service, and you will be happy to have the backup of the in-vehicle Wi-Fi. Plus, the hotspot can provide internet to up to seven devices at the same time. Unless you have one on your phone, you need this hotspot to provide Wi-Fi to your passengers. If you often travel with others in your vehicle who like to connect to the internet on the road, you will love having this hotspot.

Active Noise Cancellation

Standard across every trim of the 2025 Trax is active noise cancellation. Whether you have children who need to nap in the backseat or you simply like a serene cabin environment, you’ll love this feature. It contains in-cabin microphones that monitor for unwanted noise like road and engine sounds and emit opposite frequencies to cancel them out. It also dampens or eliminates vibrations for a peaceful and quiet cabin. You’ll enjoy your audio media, like songs and podcasts, without unwanted noises interrupting, and if you simply want to enjoy the silence and your thoughts, you can do that too.

Standard Driver Assistance Features

Moving on to the safety features. Every trim of the 2025 Trax has the standard Chevy Safety Assist suite. This gives you great tools like Forward Collision Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking, and Front Pedestrian Braking. This system can notify you if you are at risk of running into a vehicle or pedestrian in front of you, and will take over to provide braking assistance when necessary to avoid collisions. Also part of the suite of features is Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning. This system will notify you if you are drifting out of your lane and will gently take over steering to guide you back into it.

You also have a Following Distance Indicator with the suite, which helps you keep a safe distance between your vehicle and the one in front of you, as well as IntelliBeam intelligent high beams that can automatically turn on in low light settings and automatically turn off when vehicles are approaching in front of you.

An HD Rear Vision Camera is also standard with this vehicle, helping you see what’s behind your Trax when reversing out of driveways and getting into tight perpendicular spots. Also standard is a Rear Seat Reminder, which reminds you to check the backseat for valuables before exiting your vehicle. Another popular Chevy safety feature that comes standard in the 2025 Trax is Teen Driver technology. The system allows you to set limits on things like speed and music volume for teen drivers. It will also generate a report card, showing you stats like how often the automatic emergency braking took over and how many times the driver exceeded the speed limit. Conversations with your teen about being more responsible on the road are a little easier with this system in place.

Available Driver Assistance Features

In addition to the standard driver-assist features, there are also several safety features that you can add. One of these is Rear Park Assist, which uses ultrasonic sensors in the rear bumper to detect objects up to eight feet away when traveling at speeds slower than five miles per hour. The system will deliver increasingly intense notifications as you get close to the objects. You can also add Rear Cross Traffic Alert, which will notify you of vehicles approaching the rear of your vehicle when you are in reverse.

An available Lane Change Alert with a Side Blind Zone Alert will notify you when a vehicle approaches your blind spot when you plan to change lanes. Additionally, you can add Adaptive Cruise Control, which will help you maintain your desired speed while allowing you to take your foot off the gas while also maintaining a safe distance between you and the vehicle in front of you.
