Transformers: Age of Extinction Chevrolet Trax Character Name Revealed

This makes the Mexico City display referring to the Chevy Trax as just "Trax" and the Sonic RS as just "Sonic" make more sense.

Plot twist!

Pfft, talk about "uninspired". >:oP

What's in a name? The real question is, will there be a toy?

Well, what'd ya expect from from human scientists? I'm still surprised that one mech they built got the name "Galvatron" of all things.

I was expecting "Vehicon". >:oP

Pffft, everyone knows red Trax is called Road Rage.

Nah, humans aren't that creative.

I'm hoping it actually turns out to be Tracks. Retrax would also be acceptable, but seems less likely by an order of magnitude.

The car being sliced in half above is a Chevrolet Malibu

I think is just a reference name, but still, I like the idea of having more than one character for that human remote controled army.

That's assuming the humans name him that and that he doesn't gain sentience and name himself.

Guys it could be a Vehicon that somehow is some what different then the others.


There were some Chinese advertisements/posters that had a silhouetted Trax (before we knew they were the Vehicons) with an also silhouetted dotm Bumblebee and Sideswipe.


So until now i wondered why a single Trax was advertised with those two even if it was only in China.

"cars that turn into robots" see heres the problem its suppose to be the other way around

Oh, Trax is it? Well, I'm sure he'll fit right into the story alongside Sonic, Camaro, Bugati and Lamborgini.

Uninspired Product Placement, transform and sell cars!

Is it Autobot or Decepticon?

Wasn't Skids called Trax, before they gave him a real name?

I get that the Corvette was already taken for Crosshairs, but they could have made Trax look at least a *little* bit like his namesake.

Well, the info we got from CinemaCon hinted at his name being Galvatron in the fight scene with Prime before Lockdown shows up, in which scene Galvatron is being human-operated. So maybe, just maybe, he has that name given to him by the humans.

When was it ever confirmed that they were Vehicons?

Not in this case with this dude being a human-made mechanoid created to fight against the real Cybertronian Transformers. This thing is most likely not alive.

Neither.

Not when this thing isn't a homage to G1 Tracks. This "Trax" is named for what it is: A drone created from a Chevy Trax.

Would't want our giant alien transforming robot movie to not be 100% realistic! That would ruin the realism of this historical documentary!

The Sonic might be Hot Shot

I have it on good authority that the entire purpose of these films is to discredit Transformers sightings*.
