From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Chevrolet has released a picture of its forthcoming new small SUV, the Trax, which is expected to be seen in the metal for the first time at the Paris Motor Show in September.

The Trax features the distinctive Chevrolet “face” that is being standardised across the manufacturer's line-up as it knits together its US and Korean ranges to produce a global brand, and shares its deep grille with models such as the Cruze, Orlando and the Captiva. Chevrolet says that the new car will provide room for five passengers and generous luggage space but has released few other details.

As well as the Trax, Chevrolet will introduce this year an estate version of the Golf-sized Cruze, and a new Malibu; the larger Malibu model is traditionally aimed mainly at the US market but the latest version is based on the same platform as the Vauxhall/Opel Insignia and is designed to appeal more widely to customers in other countries as well.
