AWD Conversion Kits Possible? - Chevy Trax

So I was just looking at the 2015 Chevy Trax and apparently it has an AWD option. Isn't it built on the Sonic platform? So AWD conversion kits could be a possibility, right?

Also... its upper storage compartment has a lid, and the freaking gauges are awesome.

If it is possible... Ultimate Sonic sleepers. :banana:

Maybe, but I believe the awd is only available with an automatic like the Buick encore .

Its based on the same platform, but not the same. I believe that it is bigger in every dimension and has a different rear suspension set up. Chances are that the floor pan is also completely different to accommodate the drive shaft from the transfer case to the rear differential.

When I looked at all the different parts last year, it would be around $6k in parts with no guarantee anything would fit.

Much easier to buy a Trax and hotrod it.

Yep

Dam... the shot from above (on the chevy website) makes it look the same as the hatchback, layout wise... but that is interior.

I like the look of it. It's basically a higher off the ground Sonic with AWD. I'm sure the cargo space and rear seat space will be more.
