What is GMC version of Trax?
There isn’t a GMC-branded Trax model. GM does not offer a Trax in the GMC lineup. The closest GMC option in the same class is the Terrain.
Trax is GM’s subcompact crossover badge used by Chevrolet, with Buick Encore serving as the most direct Buick sibling in North America, and Opel/Vauxhall Mokka in Europe. GMC does not produce a Trax-equivalent, so buyers seeking a Trax-like GMC vehicle should look to Terrain for a compact crossover within the GMC brand, or consider Buick Encore or Opel/Vauxhall Mokka in other markets.
