2025 Chevrolet Traverse

SCHEDULE A TEST DRIVE
Overview
Big, bold, and rugged, the 2025 Chevrolet Traverse has come a long way since it first debuted about 15 years ago as the first SUV crossover of its kind. Over the years, the Traverse has evolved from a stylish family crossover to a versatile adventure vehicle. With seating for up to 8 and best-in-class cargo volume, the Traverse is as spacious as it is capable. Its striking style and advanced technology make the Traverse an outstanding option for drivers who want a modern SUV with renowned Chevy capability.
Quick Specs
- Engine – 2.5-liter turbo-boosted four-cylinder engine
- Output – Up to 328 horsepower and 326 pound-ft of torque
- Transmission – 8-speed automatic transmission with AWD available on all trims
- Seating capacity – Up to 8, depending on trim
- Cargo capacity – 98 cu. ft.
- Maximum towing capability – Up to 5,000 lbs.
Who's It For?
The 2025 Chevrolet Traverse is big on roominess, so those families that have outgrown a 5-passenger compact SUV may find the Traverse fits the bill with its passenger capacity of 7 or 8, depending on seat configuration. Larger families and those with a lot to haul will appreciate the 2025 Chevrolet Traverse's roomy interior, with plenty of room for cargo and excellent storage. To maximize passenger seating, buyers should opt for the base LS trim, which offers seating for eight in three rows, while the other trims offer room for 7 due to captain chairs in the second row reducing passenger capacity.
While the returning RS trim remains a favorite of Traverse fans, those looking for some off-road adventure may want to look to the rugged Z71 trim, with features like a slightly wider track and more ground clearance, suspension, and dampers with hydraulic rebound control, and sporty black 18-in. all-terrain tires.
Real World Performance
All trim levels of the 2025 Chevrolet Traverse come with the same turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine and eight-speed automatic transmission, with either all-wheel or front-wheel drive. With up to 328 horsepower and 326 pound-ft of torque, Chevrolet is setting the 2025 Traverse up as a more-than-capable SUV, whether hitting the highway, city streets or—in the case of the Z71—even more rugged terrain.
Standard on the Z71 and optional on other trims, the 2025 Traverse's towing package can haul up to 5,000 lbs. Speaking of the Z71, buyers dreaming of an off-road experience will want to check out this all-terrain trim option. In addition to the rugged Z71, owners have favored the top-of-the-line RS trim, prized for its flashy looks and great handling.
