In the world of subcompact SUVs, you have nearly endless choices. The 2025 Chevy Trax and 2025 Honda HR-V are both great picks. Let’s examine the pros and cons of each to find out which one comes out on top.
VS.
The Trax comes in five trims, ranging from the affordable LS model to the fully-equipped ACTIV. The HR-V comes in three configurations, from the budget-conscious LX to the well-appointed EX-L. We’ll find most of what these vehicles have to offer not far from the base model, so let’s look at the standard features of the 2025 Chevy Trax LT versus the 2025 Honda HR-V LX.
The Trax is equipped with a zippy ECOTEC 1.2L Turbo engine, delivering 137 hp and 162 lb-ft of torque. 6-speed automatic transmission adds up to a ton of fun behind the wheel. With an estimated fuel economy of 28 MPG city / 32 MPG highway, the Trax is both fun to drive and practical.
The HR-V has a 4-cylinder engine under the hood for 158 hp and 138 lb-ft of torque. Featuring a continuously variable transmission (CVT) and an estimated 26 MPG city / 32 MPG highway, the HR-V is also a sensible option.
Overall, both the Trax and HR-V are more than serviceable performers in most environments.
The Chevy Trax packs an impressive array of safety features. Standard driver-assistance features include an HD rear vision camera, electronic stability control system with traction control, forward collision alert, lane keep assist with lane departure warning, following distance indicator, automatic emergency braking, and more.
The Honda HR-V also doesn’t kid around in terms of safety. The HR-V comes with a driver assist package that includes a collision mitigation braking system, road departure mitigation system, adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, and more.
If you want an inviting interior with modern amenities, you’ll probably like the Trax. Step inside to discover a 6-way adjustable driver seat, 60/40 split-folding rear seat, automatic climate control, 8-inch color driver information center, and more. The infotainment system features 6-speaker audio, 11-inch HD touchscreen, Bluetooth, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and too many amenities to list here.
We have no major complaints about the HR-V’s interior. With automatic climate control, illuminated steering wheel-mounted controls, and a 60/40 split 2nd row seat, comfort shouldn’t be an issue. 4-speaker audio, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility and more add up to a nice enough infotainment setup.
Chevrolet is acclaimed for iconic styling, comfort, reliability and value. The 2025 Trax upholds the reputation. The 2025 Honda HR-V is also very well equipped. Both are excellent, but in our opinion, the Chevy Trax pulls out ahead.
