2013 CHEVROLET Tracker 1.8L FWD 5MT (140 HP)

Vehicle Overview

Based on the same platform as the Chevrolet Traxx or Opel Mokka, the Tracker was the small SUV offered by the bow-tie brand on the South-American market. The same name was used for the Russian market.

The Brazilian name was kept after a long line of Chevrolet Tracker / Geo Tracker. While its predecessor was based on the Suzuki Vitara, the 2013 model was based on the Chevrolet Traxx.

Using a small-car platform, but upgrading it to a small cross-over wasn’t a bad idea for Chevrolet. The vehicle was easy to build in various locations in the world, including in Mexico facilities for the South-American continent. The front fascia of the vehicle looked more aggressive than on other markets, to mimic a bigger vehicle even though the car was more of a crossover than an SUV.

The interior was good enough for five passengers, but with limited room in the rear. Its trunk could hold up to 1372 liters (48.3 cu-ft) of space, with the rear seats folded.

For driving aids, the car featured ABS with electronic brake-distribution (EBD), traction control and ESP. For the comfort features, there was a bigger list with rear parking sensors, cruise control, power windows and locks, on-board computer and a USB + Bluetooth connectivity with the mobile phone.

The drivetrain had only one engine option of a 1.8-liter engine that could be mated to a 6-speed automatic gearbox.
