Love our traverse

Haven't had it long enough to give honest opinion but so far so good we love everything about it. The only problem is learning about all the electronic gadgets on the vehicle but we shall conquer.

A decent amount of car for the money

Coming to Canada from the UK where my last 2 family cars had been a LandRover Discovery and a BMW X5, I was initially a tad disappointed by my first Traverse (a 2015 model) as it lacked the refinement and high-end trimmings of the European mid-size SUVs. However it proved to be a competent, spacious and reliable family workhorse and I replaced it in May 2018 with the new model which carries a few more toys. So far it's performed flawlessly, looks pretty nice and handles suprisingly well for a car of its size. Best of all for me, it beats all the mid-sized Europeans on interior space (including the VW Atlas).

Roomy

Good legroom, headroom front and back adjustable middle row seats. Missing the details though. Rear doors don't close flush with car body. Airbag in steering wheel also isn't flush. Drivers seat too far center so I feel I'm on seats edge and have to scooch over while driving. Sound system is not great. Only hear the front speakers even when putting in more rear input. Good ride. Good pep. Transmission can be a little rough a times. Would prefer rear wheel drive when not in all wheel drive mode. 6 cyl, not great on gas mileage. Gas tank should be a little bigger to offset this

Great Car!

This car is a dream. We have the LT trim package and it's great. The only downside is the seat elt height on the front seats does not adjust. Everything else is great. The ride is smooth and quiet. There inside is shockingly spacious with enough room for the whole family, all the dogs, and all of our stuff.

Mr&MrsP

50 yrs of driving, first ever vehicle that made an Every Lasting Impression on me... Absolutely like just about everything about the Traverse. Only wish I could afford TWO. I'm referring to the LTZ Class!

Great design, drives like a dream

Our new Traverse red line is stylish and turns heads. We managed to get 760 km to our first tank. The 360 camera is wonderful for parking in a crowded garage. Our Traverse is so unbelievably comfortable to drive and the leg room for the passengers...wow.

Everything My Family Needs (& Wants)

Stop looking at all other large SUVs & get yourself a 2018 Chevy Traverse! My family just purchased a 2018 Redline Chevy Traverse (black/black) & it truly meets all our requirements. Dependability, comfort, no road noise, style, and economy. Even the high tech accessories are just perfect. We especial love all the birdseye view cameras when we are reversing. Did I mention, there is tons of cargo room space with the third-row seats up compared to the Tahoe!
