The 2023 Traverse is a great blend of form and function. While it’s larger than some of its competition, versatile three-row seating allows drivers to use the SUV’s cargo space while also delivering a roomy cabin for any passengers that come along for the ride.
With great engine power and nimble driving, the Traverse easily takes drivers from city traffic to wide country roads without hesitation. The sleek, modern lines of the 2023 Traverse make it eye-catching without being over the top—an excellent choice for those after a minimalist aesthetic. With wide headlamps and grille, the 2023 Traverse is sturdy without appearing over-powering, as if it’s trying too hard to be something it’s not. What’s not to love about an SUV that is exactly what it says it is? No frills or fancy packaging, but a straight-out great ride that will get you through the rough patches and on to new roads ahead.
Performance-Wise
If you’re looking for great performance, the Traverse delivers with a 3.6L V6 engine and nine-speed transmission. With 310 hp and 266 lb-ft of torque, the Traverse doesn’t disappoint. Not only that, but with a max towing capacity of 5,000 lbs, the Traverse can handle doing more than just bringing you and your passengers to your next destination; you can bring your recreation equipment along as well.
The Drive Mode Selector allows drivers to adapt their SUV to fit the conditions of the road. Different options are available depending on whether your Traverse is equipped with front-wheel or all-wheel drive. With all-wheel drive, the Off-Road mode, which delivers extra torque to the rear tires for more traction on rough terrain, All-Wheel Drive mode, which offers increased traction on slippery surfaces, are included. For all models, you’ll get Front-Wheel Drive mode for fuel-efficient everyday driving, while the Tow/Haul mode makes light work of heavy trailers. Live in a snowy region? The Snow mode option gives you added traction on icy roadways.
A Full Lineup of Choices
With a smooth ride and responsive handling, the Traverse offers drivers a modern, luxurious feel without the heavy price tag, something its competitors can’t always deliver on. Narrow down your list of wants and must-haves, then match it up to the trim that best suits you. Do you have more of a focus on high-end features? The High Country is for you. Just need something simple that can handle your daily commute and errands? The base LS will have everything you need.
Interior Style and Comfort
The 2023 Traverse makes use of its cabin room in the best possible way. Not only does it seat seven or eight passengers, offer flexible seating, and deliver when it comes to head and legroom, ensuring a comfortable drive for everyone, but the 2023 Traverse is best-in-class when it comes to cargo volume. This flexible midsize SUV, with its maximum 98.2 cubic feet of cargo volume, is able to make room for everyone and everything that’s important in your life.
The driver’s seat has a multitude of functions, including options for heated or ventilated seating, making it supportive and comfortable for daily commutes or long drives. Passengers are treated to plenty of second and third-row legroom without feeling cramped. Tri-zone automatic climate control ensures that everyone can find a temperature they will be happy with.
The 2023 Traverse is an efficient, multifunction tool that drivers can depend on to make their day a little easier. A seven or eight-inch infotainment screen is located directly on the dash. If you have the eight-inch screen, lift it up to reveal hidden storage behind, making it simple to keep things like sunglasses, wallets, and phones handy but safely tucked away.
The Traverse’s varied seating options give growing families the flexibility they need. Split 60/40 third-row seating makes it simple to bring along extras when you don’t need all of the seats in the back. For added ease, drivers can choose a power-folding option for the third row to quickly stow away all seats for added space.
The second-row Smart Slide seating grants easy access to the third row. This feature can be a real time saver if the second-row seat is often occupied by an infant car seat. So whether you need to fold down third-row seats or other passengers are climbing in or out, it’s quick and simple for passengers of all ages to jump in, get comfortable, and go.
If flexible seating isn’t enough, take advantage of the Traverse’s 98.2 cubic feet of max cargo space by accessing the trunk through the Hands-Free Power Gate. A swift kick under the bumper will open or close the liftgate. Never be stuck fumbling to open the trunk with hands full of groceries again.

Drive Safe
The 2023 Traverse is decked-out with the complete Chevy Safety Assist suite. This suite offers six top-of-the-line safety features to keep drivers feeling protected and confident whenever they get behind the wheel.
Forward Collision Alert, Front Pedestrian Braking, and Automatic Emergency Braking are designed to keep not only the driver safe but those who share the road with them as well.

Out after dark? Don’t let night driving stress you too much. Use the Traverse’s Intellibeam Auto High Beam Assist to light your way.
