Chevrolet introduces the All-new tracker
THE Covenant Car Company, Inc. (TCCCI), exclusive importer and distributor of Chevrolet automobiles and parts in the country, recently launched its latest model offering—the all-new Tracker.
The introduction of this newest model is the American automaker’s take to confidently join the highly competitive crossover SUV segment in the country.
“We are excited to introduce the all-new Chevrolet Tracker to the Philippine market. This highly acclaimed crossover is a welcome addition to our refreshed model portfolio. The Tracker continues Chevrolet’s tradition of producing highly-capable crossovers and highlights the brand’s unrelenting focus on growing market segments by offering stylishly designed vehicles loaded with customer-centric technology,” said Atty. Albert B. Arcilla, president and Chief Executive Officer of TCCCI.
The all-new Tracker is the latest model in Chevy’s new-generation, global SUV lineup. Currently, it is the best-selling utility vehicle in major Latin American markets and is making waves in China, one of the biggest markets for Chevrolet. “The Tracker will appeal to Filipino customers who want more from their crossover SUV. Available in two feature-packed variants, the Tracker offers fuel efficiency, safety, comfort, convenience, and connectivity packaged in a practical and capable SUV,” Arcilla added.
With practical functionality, modern athletic design, intelligent connectivity features, refined engine technology, advanced safety features, and smart cargo space, the newest crossover comes in two model variants—the base Tracker
LS and the striking Tracker LT Redline Edition.
“Bringing the new Chevrolet Tracker to the Philippines represents a new chapter in the successful and ever-evolving Chevrolet crossover and SUV story that we started writing in 1935 with the Chevrolet Suburban Carryall, the world’s first SUV,” emphasized Christian Soemmer, president and Managing Director of GM Strategic Markets Alliances and Distributors. “And the Tracker with its attractive design and state-of-the-art technical features is the living proof of our 85 years of crossover and SUV expertise.”
Signature style meets modern design
BOTH exterior and interior layouts drew inspiration from Chevrolet’s sporty DNA while also adapting to the brand’s new and dynamic design philosophy. Sharp, angular lines across its profile provide that youthful countenance, while a Ushaped surface on the hood denotes a bold touch complementing the front’s overall design. Further, the squared-off LED daytime running lights, which double as turn signals, further enhance the Tracker’s striking fascia.
The Tracker Redline Edition is upfront with design elements. It conveys the vehicle’s athletic demeanor through its strong black and red accents on the familiar front double grille, plus a distinct horizontal red trim and a black Chevy bowtie emblem. Even the black heated side mirrors with bright L-shaped red trim and 17-inch black alloy rims with red accents received exclusive trim treatment. Exclusive to the Tracker Redline Edition is a large, sliding panoramic sunroof.
Moreover, similar design elements stretched throughout the interior with an all-black dual cockpit and jet-black seats accented with red double stitching. On the other hand, the Tracker LS offers a more playful, sporty lifestyle look and feel, with its two-toned jet black and captain blue interior. Inspired by Chevrolet’s long history on the racetrack, the Tracker features sports-style driver and passenger seats that provide utmost comfort and support.
Tech, space, and then some
THE top-spec LT Redline has keyless entry and modern keyless ignition, as well as automatic climate control. Its race-inspired steering wheels sport a flat-bottom, leather-wrapped, Bosch Electric Power Steering wheel with audio controls.
Meanwhile, the dashboard has a sleek, functional, and floating eight-inch colored touchscreen featuring the latest generation Chevrolet Mylink Infotainment System. It allows for smooth car and smartphone integration with Apple Carplay compatibility for easier and safer navigation, plays music, reads and
sends messages, and phone calls operation via system controls or Siri. The Tracker’s Mylink Infotainment System also has Bluetooth connectivity, four USB ports, and one SD card reader slot.
Space-wise, the vehicle provides more than 20 innovative storage solutions to keep things organized inside. With multiple seating configurations, including 60/40 splitfolding rear seats, the new generation crossover SUV opens more room for essential cargo.
Powerful drive, confident rides
MOTIVATION comes from a lightweight, new generation 1.0-liter three-cylinder DOHC Ecotec Turbo engine, mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. The motor can generate 116 hp at 5800 rpm and 175 N-m of maximum torque between 1500-4200 rpm. The allnew engine is packed with intelligent technologies, resulting in excellent performance and better fuel economy.
It has an Active Thermal Management System with Electric Water Pump, Exhaust Gas Recirculation, and Variable Displacement Oil Pump. These components ensure no wasted energy to optimize engine performance and maintain engine temperature while expending lower battery power and fuel consumption. The Water-cooled Turbo Intercooler helps improve mechanical durability and lengthens the turbocharger’s life.
Another feature is the Engine
Start/stop System. It effectively helps reduce fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. Fully adapting to different traffic conditions, the discretionary Start/stop function automatically shuts down the engine when the vehicle runs at low speed or is stationary. It is agile in restarting the engine before the driver releases the brake pedal, ensuring that a smooth drive and vehicle performance are maintained and consistent.
Safety-wise, the all-new Tracker comes with a range of active and passive safety technologies, including front and rear disc brakes, Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Emergency Brake Warning, Rollover Mitigation, Enhanced Understeer Control, Mini Spare Detection, Cornering Brake Control (CBC), Traction Control System (TCS), Engine Drag Control (EDC), Panic Brake Assist (PBA), and Hill Start Assist (HSA).
Moreover, it has Low Vacuum Brake Assist (LVBA), No Vacuum Brake Assist (NVBA), Fading Brake Assist (FBA), Torque Vectoring Brakes (TVBB), Engine Immobilizer, Anti-theft Alert System, and Express-up Window with Anti-pinch function. There is even Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), driver, front passenger, side airbags, ISOFIX system, electric heated side mirrors, and reverse camera with a wide 130-degree viewing angle.
The base Tracker LS retails at P1.142.888 million, while you can own the striking Tracker LT Redline Edition for P1.242.888 million. Available colors are Agate Red Metallic, Satin Steel Gray Metallic, Black Meet Kettle Metallic, Summit White, and Pow Zinga Metallic (exclusive to the LS variant).
