Which Model is a Good fit for You?
Chevy Trax: Good Size, Trendy, Low Starting Price
It's not often you'll find a brand-new vehicle for just $21,000. That's exactly what you'll have with the Chevy Trax. It's an affordable option packed with standard smartphone connectivity and safety features, even on the entry-level model. It's a great option for those who want the most in Paterson, NJ, without paying the most.
Mazda CX-30: Smaller, A Bit More Luxurious
The Mazda CX-30 pours luxury into this year's lineup. However, you'll have to pay much more to attain, even for the entry-level model, which leaves much to be desired in Hawthorne. If you're ok with paying more for premium features and a less attractive exterior design, the Mazda CX-30 could be a good fit.
Toyota Corolla Cross: A Practical Alternative
The Corolla Cross does great at keeping up with the exterior styling of the Chevy Trax. Available dual-tone body/roof options, along with 18-inch wheels, keep the allure strong. However, it's still smaller than the Chevy Trax with less max cargo space and passenger volume.
Kia Seltos: Another Stylish Option
The Kia Seltos offers an array of wheel sizes, options, and colors, falling in line with the Chevy Trax. With four trim levels, customers in West Caldwell will have more options to choose from; however, the more expensive price tag follows.
