Pound for pound, few small crossovers give you this much car for the outlay, which is the whole reason to look at it. The latest Trax grew noticeably over the old one, so when you rent a Chevrolet Trax in Dubai you get a cabin and boot that punch above what the size and running cost suggest. We deliver it free to your home, hotel or office anywhere in the city, with the Salik tag fitted and insurance already on the car. It's a front-wheel-drive city and highway crossover for a couple or a small family, light on fuel and easy to park. This page settles one thing: whether the Trax is the right amount of car for you, or whether you should drop to the smaller Groove or step up to the Equinox.
Why the Trax is the value pick
The argument is simple. The current Trax is one of the roomiest cars you can rent for what it costs to run, and most renters who book it never need anything bigger. It's longer and wider than the model it replaced, so the back seat actually takes two adults for a cross-town trip rather than just kids, and the cabin feels like a size up from where the price sits.
That space comes without the fuel bill or the parking headache of a midsize SUV. The 1.2-litre turbo three-cylinder is built for sipping, not sprinting, so a week of Marina-to-Downtown driving barely moves the gauge. For a couple living here, or a small family doing the school run and the weekend shop, that combination of room and low running cost is the reason to pick it over a flashier badge.
The boot, and whether your bags fit
This is where the new Trax earns its keep. The boot is genuinely usable for the class, wide and square rather than a token slot, and it takes two large suitcases plus a soft bag with the rear seats up. That covers a couple landing at DXB for the week, or a small family's airport run, without forcing anyone to travel light.
Fold the 60/40 rear bench and the floor opens long and flat for a Festival City furniture run or a full load of beach kit. The trip it can't quite do is four adults plus a week of hard cases all at once, where the boot fills before the seats do. For two or three people with normal luggage, you'll have room to spare, and that's most rentals.
Trax against the Groove below and the Equinox above
Here's the call I'd make at the desk. The Groove sits under the Trax as Chevrolet's smallest, cheapest crossover, and it's the right rent if it's mostly one person threading through town who wants the lowest running cost going. The catch is space: the Groove's back seat and boot get tight the moment two adults and a full shop travel together. The Trax adds real room for a small step up in cost, and that extra space is almost always worth it for two people or more.
Look up the Chevrolet range and you reach the Equinox. That's the true family SUV, with a bigger boot and a roomier back seat for child seats and the gear that comes with them. Size up to the Equinox only when the Trax's boot genuinely runs out, meaning four people travelling with full luggage, or a growing family that needs the extra width across the rear bench. Short of that, the Trax does the same daily jobs for less. For a couple or a small family who don't need the bigger car most weeks, the Trax is the sensible middle, and I'd only move you off it when your passenger count or luggage forces it.
Living with it in the city and on the highway
The Trax drives like the tall, easy hatchback it is underneath. The steering's light, the turning circle is tidy, and dropping into a stacked bay at Dubai Mall or a narrow Marina structure is a non-event. The raised seat gives you a clear view over traffic, which is most of what you want for the daily grind here.
On Sheikh Zayed Road the little turbo has enough pull for a confident merge and settles into a quiet 120 cruise, so an Abu Dhabi or Al Ain run won't tire you out. It's not quick, and it isn't trying to be. The part that matters in July is the cooling: after the car's baked in a surface lot, the cabin pulls the heat down at a sensible pace, which counts when you're getting in at midday.
The honest off-road answer
The Trax is front-wheel drive only. There's no all-wheel-drive version, and in Dubai that costs you almost nothing day to day, since the roads are dry and the grip is there for the city, the highway and a graded gravel track to a campsite.
What it won't do is the desert. The ground clearance and the road tyres are built for tarmac and light gravel, not soft sand or wadi climbs, so point it at the dunes and you'll be digging it out and waiting on a tow. If your week genuinely includes off-road driving, rent a proper 4WD for that leg and keep the Trax for the city and highway it's made for. We bring it to you washed and fuelled, with the Salik tag fitted and insurance on the car, delivery and collection across Dubai free, mileage unlimited, and no deposit frozen on your card.
FAQ — Common Questions Answered.
Should I rent the Trax, the Groove or the Equinox?
Pick the Trax when it's a couple or a small family who want real cabin and boot space without the running cost of a midsize SUV. Drop to the Groove only if it's mainly one person in town chasing the lowest fuel and parking footprint, since its back seat and boot get tight fast with two people and luggage. Step up to the Equinox when you carry child seats plus a full week's gear, or four people with hard cases, because it has the bigger boot and wider rear bench the Trax can't match. Tell us your group size and the kind of week you've got and we'll match you to the right one.
How much luggage fits in the Chevrolet Trax?
With the rear seats up the boot takes two large suitcases plus a soft bag, which covers a couple or a small family arriving at DXB for the week. Fold the 60/40 bench and the flat floor opens for a furniture run or a full set of beach and weekend gear. The one trip it can't manage is four adults with a week of hard cases all at once, where the boot fills before the seats do. For two or three people with normal bags you'll have room over.
Is the new Trax really roomier than it used to be?
Yes, and that's the main reason to rent it. The current Trax is longer and wider than the older one, so the back seat takes two adults for a cross-town trip rather than just children, and the boot is properly usable instead of a token space. The cabin feels a size up from where the price and running cost sit. For a couple or a small family it's one of the better value-for-space rentals in the class.
Is the Trax good on fuel for a week of Dubai driving?
Yes, it's one of the lighter cars in its class to run. The 1.2-litre turbo three-cylinder is tuned for economy, so a week of Marina, Downtown and school-run driving barely touches the gauge, and even regular Sheikh Zayed Road cruising stays efficient. It's not a fast engine, but for city and highway use that's the right trade. If keeping the fuel and Salik spend down matters to you, the Trax is an easy car to live with here.
Can I take the Chevrolet Trax off-road or into the dunes?
No, and we'd steer you off it. The Trax is front-wheel drive only, with modest ground clearance and road tyres built for tarmac and light gravel, not soft sand or wadi driving. It'll handle a graded track to a campsite, but point it at the dunes and you'll get stuck and need a tow. For real off-road plans, rent a dedicated 4WD for that part of the trip and keep the Trax for the city and highway driving it does well.
