Chevy Trax

2007 New York Auto Show: Chevy Trax Minicar Concept
The concept vehicle shown here — called the Chevrolet Trax — is one of three minicar concepts GM plans to unveil at next week’s New York auto show. The company will then allow the public to vote on which of the three they like best. The results may determine which of the concepts Chevy brings to market.
All three are based on GM’s Korean-built minicars, which are sold outside the U.S. These would be smaller than the current Chevy Aveo, sold domestically. The Trax is powered by a 1-liter — yes, that’s 1.0 — gasoline engine. Power will probably be in the two-digit range, but fuel economy would probably be excellent. Think of it as Chevy’s version of the Smart ForTwo.
We’re not sure if the U.S. market is ready for the Smart or one of GM’s minicars, but there seems to be a trend developing.

If it does come to NA it'll be to Canada first - just like the Smart ForTwo. Is the Smart even for sale Stateside yet?
Micro cars will gain sales as more Urban dwellers realize that they don't need anything much larger if all the driving they do is a quick jaunt to the grocery store. Oh, and so long as you are single (imagine getting a baby seat into that thing!).
It would also be a good car to get for your teenage daughter - there is NO WAY any hanky panky can go on in a car that small!

Is it just me or does this look like Chevy's version of the Nissan Pino I found last week? (Except without the excessive girliness)
