Which SUV has the extra space for all my gear?

You can load up to 65.2 cubic feet of sports equipment and supersized shopping in the 2022 Ford Bronco Sport. Bring your friends, and there are still 32.5 cubic feet available in the far back. The 2022 Chevrolet Trax only has a maximum of 48.4 cubic feet. You might need to leave something behind when packing for a long weekend.

Are there smart safety systems included in these vehicles?

The 2022 Ford Bronco Sport comes loaded with the Ford Co-Pilot360 system, including autonomous braking, blindspot detection, and smart high beams. Only blindspot warnings can be added to your 2022 Chevrolet Trax when you upgrade to a higher trim. You may not be able to avoid a fender bender at a busy intersection.

Are these rides equipped for off-road adventures?

Your 2022 Ford Bronco Sport is prepared for rugged unpaved trails with 4X4 ready to conquer a variety of terrains. Bring along your skis or extra bags by securing them to the roof rails. You will need to opt for all-wheel drive on the 2022 Chevrolet Trax and ask to have the rails added.

As you can see, when you want to spend your free time exploring back country roads while loaded up for fun, only the 2022 Ford Bronco Sport includes all the features you need. The 2022 Chevrolet Trax simply falls short in every department.
