2. 2016 Chevrolet Trax

While the Trax isn’t the flashiest SUV on the inside, it is easy to maneuver and has excellent visibility from the windows. The Trax is powered by a turbocharged four-cylinder engine and a six-speed transmission. Despite the turbocharged engine, acceleration with the Trax is sluggish in most situations. The front and rear seats in this SUV offer plenty of headroom and leg space. Standard features include a seven-inch touch-screen infotainment system, Bluetooth capabilities, a rearview camera and a Wi-Fi hotspot. Optional features include a power sunroof, remote start and rear parking sensors. The Trax offers a mere 48.4 cubic feet of cargo room, less than what some competitors offer. The small cargo area can be made more versatile by the fold-flat front passenger seat.
