My mother has a Buick encore (mechanically the same as a trax IIRC). She has no issues in Northern Maine, but like others have said it really comes down to the tires. In high school I had a geo prizm and it was great with snow tires, equivalent or even slightly better than my silverado with all terrains.

Read up on the 1.4 liter engine in the Trax. Very problematic.

I’m still daily driving my 2006 Trailblazer! It does exceptionally well in the snow and has been incredibly reliable. I have so much trust in it! The trailblazer line definitely is a solid one.
