The way you tow a Chevrolet Trax depends on whether it has front-wheel drive (FWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD), but neither can be flat-towed. If you have the front-wheel drive model, you will require a tow dolly with electric brakes that can handle at least 4,250 pounds. For the all-wheel drive version, you will need a car trailer that can raise all four wheels off the ground. Trying to flat tow a Trax in any setup can result in severe transmission damage, potentially requiring a full transmission replacement. Avoid taking this risk and consider renting a trailer from companies like UHaul if you don't have one available.
