It used to be the case that when a family in Woodbridge, Vaughan, Brampton, Kleinburg, or Mississauga needed to buy a new vehicle to carry up to eight people, the only choice was an uninspiring minivan. SUVs have taken over these duties for many families, and anyone wanting minivan capability and value for money in a much more stylish and desirable package doesn’t have to look any further than the sensational 2023 Chevrolet Traverse.
The 2023 Chevrolet Traverse delivers what many larger families want; a large, spacious, three-row vehicle that can seat up to eight people that looks so good they’ll be proud to have it parked outside the home. And the way the Traverse delivers a smooth, comfortable ride and an enjoyable driving experience for whoever is at the wheel are additional bonuses. The maximum cargo volume inside the Traverse is a useful 2,781 litres, and you can also tow a trailer of up to 2,268 kg. The exterior styling is all about clean, modern, and unpretentious lines that leave onlookers in no doubt about the genuine SUV credentials of the Traverse and without a hint of minivan anywhere to be seen.
The 2023 Chevrolet Traverse is available in six trim levels that cover an impressive spectrum of specifications and appeal to a broad range of budgets. The good news for the budget conscious is you don’t have to break the bank to get a trim level with great standard features, and you don’t have to go up the trim levels to get the best powertrain or all-wheel drive. The lineup starts with the entry-level LS, which has a list of standard features many rivals would be pleased to offer in some of their more expensive models. If you want more than even this generously-equipped base model comes with, the trim levels go from the LS to the LT, RS, True North, Premier, and top-of-the-range High Country. Every trim level features the same engine, transmission, and standard all-wheel drive.
The engine powering all versions of the 2023 Chevrolet Traverse is a 3.6-litre V-6 that produces this sensational three-row crossover SUV with 310 horsepower and 266 lb.-ft. of torque. The power then gets sent to all four wheels through a nine-speed automatic transmission with a two-wheel drive model to aid fuel efficiency when AWD capability isn’t required. Despite its popularity with rental fleets, the Traverse LS doesn’t feel like a base model with its standard tri-zone climate control, 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, 18-inch alloy wheels, and eight-passenger seating. If you’d like the most opulent Traverse experience, the High Country delivers big with a standard Bose premium sound system, heated and ventilated front seats, a powered panoramic sunroof, leather upholstery, an 8.0-inch digital Driver Information Centre, and plenty more.
If there’s a more capable, well-equipped, safer, or better value-for-money way to get 7 or 8 people around in comfort and style than the 2023 Chevrolet Traverse, it would be good to know what it is. You don’t have to take our word for it, however.
