The Chevy Traverse is a large and powerful SUV with a maximum towing capacity of 5,000 pounds. There’s an available third-row seat, so you can seat eight people inside. This year’s Traverse is worth considering as a great vehicle for long road trips.
Performance
This powerful SUV comes with a 3.6-liter V6 engine and a nine-speed transmission. It comes with front-wheel drive, with all-wheel drive or off-road drive available. With the standard front-wheel drive, this engine delivers 310 horsepower and 266 pound-foot of torque.
The engine also has spark ignition direct injection. It includes stop-and-start technology, which means that the engine will automatically turn off. This happens when the vehicle is at a stop with the brake pedal pressed. The engine automatically turns on again when the brake is let up.
Fuel Efficiency
On the highway, this powerful SUV averages 27+ miles to the gallon. In the city, it averages 18 miles per gallon. This SUV was very much built with long trips on the highway in mind. The excellent highway gas mileage is one of its major draws.
Towing Capacity
The maximum towing capacity is an impressive 5,000 pounds. This will require trailering equipment which is available for the 2023 Traverse.
Cargo Space
There is a maximum cargo volume of 98.2 cubic feet. To take advantage of the full available volume you would need to fold down the second and third row seating. With those seats in use, there is still 23 cubic feet of cargo space in the back.
Third-Row Seating
The third row is an available option. That third row is a power-folding seat. With the third row, you will be able to seat eight people in this SUV. Without it, you can still seat seven in this spacious Chevy.
Driver-Assist Features
Chevy Safety Assist comes standard for the Traverse. This suite includes automatic emergency braking, a forward collision alert, and front pedestrian braking. It also includes a following distance indicator and lane keep assist with lane departure warnings.
