What gas mileage does the 2026 Chevrolet Trax get? MPG by trim for Estero drivers

The 2026 Chevrolet Trax carries the maker’s EPA ratings, and the combined number is the one to budget on: 29 mpg for the gasoline version and 30 mpg for the flex-fuel version. For an Estero driver, the answer is the city, highway and combined rating for the trim you would buy, read against your own drive, whether that is the US-41 commute, the I-75 run or the trip to the beach.

Group 1 Chevrolet Estero Bay sells the Trax from 10640 Chevrolet Way, and we set those ratings beside the starting prices the maker publishes, so you can compare before you visit.

What gas mileage does the 2026 Chevrolet Trax get?

The 2026 Chevrolet Trax carries the EPA city, highway and combined ratings the maker publishes, and the combined figure is the one to budget on. The same maker figures apply to the Trax Group 1 Chevrolet Estero Bay sells today. The EPA record lists two versions, both with a 1.2-liter turbo three-cylinder engine, a six-speed automatic and front-wheel drive. The gasoline version is rated 28 mpg city, 31 highway and 29 combined. The flex-fuel version is rated 28 city, 32 highway and 30 combined, one mpg better on the highway and on the combined figure.

2026 Chevrolet Trax MPG, price and features by trim

The city rating is the same for both versions, at 28 mpg, and the highway and combined ratings are one mpg higher on the flex-fuel version. The maker lists starting prices for three trims: $23,200 for the 1RS, $25,400 for the 2RS and $21,700 for the LS.

The EPA record attaches these figures to the gasoline and flex-fuel versions rather than to each named trim. Confirm which version a 1RS, 2RS or LS carries before you compare its price with the mpg. These are the figures on the window sticker, so you can check them on the car itself.

Does the 2026 Chevrolet Trax come in all-wheel drive?

No all-wheel-drive version appears in the maker’s 2026 Trax figures, which list front-wheel drive for both the gasoline and flex-fuel versions. Both run the 1.2-liter turbo three-cylinder, rated at 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque. The maker’s published basic warranty is 3 years or 36,000 miles, typically 5 years or 60,000 miles on the powertrain, and typically 3 years or 36,000 miles on corrosion, whichever comes first in each case. The maker does not rate the 1RS, 2RS, ACTIV, LS or LT to tow, and each of those trims seats five.

What will the Trax cost in gas for Estero driving?

Gas cost comes from three numbers: the combined mpg (29 for the gasoline Trax and 30 for the flex-fuel Trax), the miles you drive and the price you pay at the pump. Divide your miles by the combined rating for the version you buy, then multiply the gallons by that price. Lee County’s total motor fuel tax is 44.025 cents a gallon, the top tier in Florida, according to the Florida Department of Revenue’s 2026 Fuel Tax Rates chart (TIP 25B05-05), Exhibit B, so the tax is part of what you pay on every fill-up in Estero.

The Florida Department of Transportation’s project 452544-1 entered construction in mid 2026 to widen and resurface 21 miles of I-75 from Golden Gate Parkway to Alico Road, with express lanes in both directions. Work zones and slow traffic count against the city rating, so measure a stretch of I-75 in work against the 28 mpg city figure rather than the highway number.

Which Trax trim is the best value at Group 1 Chevrolet Estero Bay?

Group 1 Chevrolet Estero Bay’s best value is the trim that fits your drive and your budget. The maker’s starting prices put the trims apart, with the LS the smallest of the three at $21,700, the 1RS at $23,200 and the 2RS at $25,400. The version choice is separate. The flex-fuel version adds one mpg on the highway and one mpg on the combined figure, at 32 and 30.

Group 1 Chevrolet Estero Bay lists the Trax among the new Chevrolets we sell. We offer new Chevrolet inventory plus used and certified pre-owned vehicles, and we offer certified used vehicles under Chevrolet’s CarBravo program. Choose the version by where you drive. A buyer who spends most miles on the highway gains from the flex-fuel version’s extra mile per gallon, and a buyer who wants the smallest starting price starts with the LS.

Frequently asked questions

What is the combined mpg of the 2026 Chevrolet Trax?

The 2026 Chevrolet Trax’s EPA combined rating is 29 mpg for the gasoline version and 30 mpg for the flex-fuel version. Both figures are the maker’s 2026 model-year ratings.

Is the 2026 Chevrolet Trax good on gas for city driving?

The EPA city rating is 28 mpg for both the gasoline version and the flex-fuel version. Compare that 28 mpg city figure with the 31 and 32 mpg highway figures to see how much your own errands and commute cost.

Does the Trax get better mileage on the highway than in the city?

Yes. The gasoline version is rated 31 mpg on the highway against 28 in the city, and the flex-fuel version is rated 32 on the highway against 28 in the city.

What do EPA mpg estimates mean for my real-world mileage?

According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (2026), automakers test a representative vehicle over five defined test cycles on a dynamometer, and EPA audits manufacturer data and independently checks a share of results at its NVFEL facility. The rating is a standard test result, so your own driving decides where you land.

Yes. The maker’s EPA record lists a flex-fuel version alongside the gasoline version, rated 28 mpg city, 32 highway and 30 combined.
