What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Chevrolet Trax If you want to get impressive mpg averages out of a turbocharged engine, the turbo is been seen as something to be used only when quick acceleration is really needed, not when pulling away from every traffic light. Push the Trax hard, and the tiny turbo will force as much fuel and air into the cylinders as it can, severely impacting fuel economy in the process. I observed the best fuel economy numbers with very leisurely acceleration and braking. Cruising in sixth gear, the small four spins only 2,000 rpm at 60 mph. It's not hard to see how the Trax's fuel economy can excel in highway driving. In my real-world driving, the Trax's trip computer regularly reported numbers much better than its EPA ratings: between 30 and 40 mpg in the suburbs (and most often 36-37), and just over 40 mpg on the highway.
With the 2.4 and nine-speed automatic transmission the 500X's EPA ratings are 22/31 with FWD and 21/30 with AWD. The Chevy Spark, with the Continuous Variable Transmission, is one of the best options for fuel efficiency, rating an EPA-estimated 30/38 mpg (city/highway).

EPA ratings are 25/34 with the 1.4T and manual transmission (not offered with AWD). The FIAT 500X fares a little better with the same powertrains. It can also lead to failed emission tests and a rough idle. The additional, taller ratios balance out the larger engine size, for EPA ratings of 22/31 with FWD and 21/29 with AWD. If the sensor is dirty or failing it can lead to a drop in miles per gallon. A nine-speed automatic is only available with a non-turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine.
Even with this engine the Jeep's EPA ratings are 24/31 (though with either drivetrain, and so more competitive with AWD). You can get an engine as small as the Trax's in the Jeep and FIAT, but only paired with a manual transmission (not offered in the Trax). Below 100 means cheaper than the US average. With a CVT instead of a conventional automatic, and with a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine rather than a turbocharged 1.4-liter, the Honda manages 28/35 and 27/32, respectively. The Traxs 1.4L turbocharged ECOTEC engine linked to a 6-speed automatic transmission delivers over 30 miles per gallon on both front and all-wheel. The Trax is an SUV, so it’s not as fuel efficient as other small cars, but it is still a viable option for those looking for a fuel-efficient vehicle. Compact SUV 5.5 tons CO2 Yearly estimate based on your driving miles. The 2019 Chevrolet Trax gets an estimated 26 miles per gallon in the city and 31 miles per gallon on the highway. EPA ratings are 26 mpg city and 34 mpg highway with front-wheel drive (FWD), and 24/31 with all-wheel drive (AWD). Combined City/Hwy 28 MPG 26 City 31 Highway Tailpipe Emissions 5.2 tons CO2 Trax LS 5.2 tons CO2 Avg. The Chevrolet Trax isn't quite the segment's fuel economy champ-that honor goes to the new Honda HR-V-but it's close.
