CarGurus Analysis: 2016 Chevrolet Trax

Summary
With 31 currently listed for sale and an average price of $7,797 CAD, 22.6% of 2016 Chevrolet Trax listings on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favourably reviewed: Owners rated the 2016 Chevrolet Trax 5 / 5 stars.
Why it stands out
The 2016 Chevrolet Trax stands out as Chevrolet’s first subcompact crossover, a small SUV that was designed to blend the manoeuvrability and fuel efficiency of a sedan with the higher seating position and extra space buyers wanted from an SUV. That positioning made it a practical choice for shoppers looking for an affordable, city-friendly vehicle without moving up to a larger crossover. It also helped establish the Trax as a budget-conscious entry in Chevrolet’s lineup.
For 2016, the Trax was still in its early form, so its appeal came more from packaging than from outright performance. The available 1.4-litre turbocharged four-cylinder produced 138 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque, and the model needed 10 seconds to reach 100 km/h. That makes it clear the Trax was not especially quick, but it did offer the kind of everyday usability many buyers wanted. The base model’s folding front passenger seat was a particularly useful touch, allowing cargo nearly 2.5 metres long, while the cabin included a seven-inch infotainment touchscreen, OnStar, and Bluetooth.
The 2016 Trax also had some meaningful strengths in value and versatility, but it was not especially rich in safety or convenience features compared with later years. All-wheel drive was available, and fuel consumption was estimated at 8.1 L/100 km combined with front-wheel drive and the manual transmission, 8.3 L/100 km combined with the automatic, and 9.0 L/100 km combined with all-wheel drive. At the same time, the early Trax’s safety equipment was relatively sparse, which is one reason these first years are often seen as the less desirable part of the model’s run.

Despite the fact that the vehicle was slightly smaller than my last, it fits well between a typical sedan and an SUV. It's roomy enough inside, everything is well within reach, and the feature set is just what I was looking for. Aesthetically the design of the car is very nice to look at. It's easy on the eyes with smooth lines and a high enough profile. I'm not disappointed with my decision at all to purchase this vehicle. Would recommend.

I was recently in an accident. Where I had the Right-of-way, and the person had a flashing red light. I was struck and the airbags were deployed. Both me and my passenger were able to safely walk away from the accident. I wish I could upload pictures. The car is amazing and the Trax will be my choice of vehicle from now on. Also add weight to the back end of the Trax. I live in the northeast and we get snow. Its a little light when it comes to dealing with snow.

I have been driving it for 5 days and the car is comfy and easy to drive. It is a compact SUV but you can go to the mountains without worrying about the road. So far so good. I like all the little details inside the car, such as a back-up camera and cruise.

Is the 2016 Chevrolet Trax a good car?
Yes — the 5/5 user rating suggests you may be looking at a model year that resonates strongly with shoppers who want a compact, budget-friendly crossover. The 2016 Trax’s appeal comes from its small-car manoeuvrability, higher seating position, and practical packaging, including a folding front passenger seat that helps it handle longer cargo. It was built around everyday usefulness rather than flash, with available all-wheel drive and a cabin that prioritises convenience for urban driving and light-duty versatility.
With 21.4% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have a decent chance of finding a competitively priced example.
Is the 2016 Chevrolet Trax reliable?
Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The 2016 Trax is described as part of the early run of production, with a practical, value-first formula and relatively sparse safety equipment for the year. Its straightforward setup and modest performance can work in your favour if you want a simple used crossover, but you should still pay close attention to maintenance history and condition because age and usage matter more when a vehicle was built to a budget.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2016 Chevrolet Trax?
This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can be patient and still have room to negotiate.
- Deal availability: 21.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 98 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 18.92% compared with last year.
If you find a listing below $9,194 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2016 Chevrolet Trax's resale value?
The current average of $9,358 CAD sits slightly below last year's $11,541 CAD.
That price movement suggests the Trax has become more accessible for used buyers, which can also mean future sellers may need to price carefully to stay competitive. If you buy well now, you may have less downside risk than someone who paid closer to last year’s average. The model’s practical appeal and compact size should help keep it relevant with budget-minded shoppers.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2016 Chevrolet Trax or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2016 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2016 if:
- 21.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 18.92% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
The bottom line: The 2016 Trax makes the most sense if you want a value-focused small crossover with practical packaging and you can find one priced near the lower end of the market. If you’re especially price-sensitive, a nearby year may also be worth comparing, but the 2016 stands out when you want a balance of affordability, compact size, and everyday usefulness.
