Is the Chevy Trax an SUV?

I’ve been looking for a small SUV for a bit now and haven’t found one I like. When I was driving the other day, I saw a Chevy Trax that was larger than a sedan but didn’t quite look like an SUV. Is it considered an SUV?

There are plenty of compact and subcompact SUVs on the market, but not all of them will work for everyone. Yes, the Chevy Trax is an SUV, but it falls into the subcompact crossover SUV class.
The Chevy Trax is an excellent option for anyone looking for a bit more space than a sedan on a budget. It offers many essential SUV elements, like a tall driving position, available all-wheel drive (AWD), and a spacious cargo area. Unfortunately, it falls short on the modern comforts you’ll find in larger, more expensive SUVs.
However, it does offer a standard touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, but the most desirable driver-assistance features come at an extra expense. If you’re looking for something a bit larger with a more modern and up-to-date design, the Chevy Trailblazer is a great alternative or the slightly larger Chevy Blazer.
Whether you’re looking for a Trax, Trailblazer, or Blazer, you’ll need to ensure you also get a good
