Serenity was scoffed at by people who didn’t know better but was loved by those who did because it was cheap to repair and had a good reputation for durability. The parallels between a Trax and the Firefly-class spaceship Serenity don’t end there (I’ll stop soon, I promise). You can also independently flip the seat bottoms in the back forward, giving you a nice tall loading area in the back for plants/picture frames/stolen Alliance gold. The cargo area is a respectable 530 L with the back seats in place and 1,371 L with them folded flat. The only storage area missing is the hidden compartment behind the MyLink screen found in the Impala and Malibu. There are three (3!) levels of trays in the door trims, a drawer under the passenger seat, a false floor in the cargo area, a covered bin in the side of the cargo area, an uncovered tray in the other side, a mini glove box with USB and Aux inputs inside on top of the regular glove box, a centre-stack-top pop-up tray, another tray at the bottom of the centre stack and a flip-out coin holder to the left of the steering wheel. Two deep crevices on either side of the centre stack hold telephones, wallets, tissue packets and the like. Like Serenity, which was a favourite of Mal’s for its many hiding spots – he was a smuggler after all – the Trax is a playpen of holes, drawers, cup holders, crevices and crannies. The real reason the Trax is best described (in sci-fi parlance at least) as a Firefly-class transport is its plethora of storage compartments and cubby holes. ![]() It also wouldn’t be the agile-as-all-heck X-Wing, nor the enormous yet elegant Enterprise.īut it would flash its shiny backside at Alliance Cruisers, and it would make all who sail within feel an unnatural affection for its cute, pug-like face. It wouldn’t be the Millennium Falcon – it doesn’t have the speed. If the Chevrolet Trax was a spaceship in a beloved science fiction program/movie, it would be Serenity. ![]()
