Trax for Paris debut

This is Chevrolet's new compact SUV, the Trax, which will debut at the upcoming Paris Motor Show, writes Brian Byrne.

The 5-seat vehicle offers a chunky style and car-like handling, and is just over 4.2 metres in length.

On-demand 4WD will be available, as will automatic transmission.

The Trax will be powered in Europe by a choice of 1.4 or 1.6 petrol units, the smaller one turbocharged, or a 1.7 diesel. The auto and AWD will be available with the 1.4 and 1.7 engines.
