Chevy's new Traverse looks way, way, way less minivany than before and it packs the features to back it up. All models get a TON of standard active safety tech, boxier looks, 328 horsepower standard, and there's a Z71 model for more off-road capability. On the inside we get a better appointed cabin, more tech, and SuperCruise! But most importantly, all of that will happen for thousands of dollars less than the Grand Highlander, with a bigger cargo area and more family-focused features.

I like how much space this offers, hopefully this makes some consumers switch from BoF to unibody.
For 95% of consumers there is no reason to get a Tahoe instead of this new Traverse.
edit: they should offer the 8 seat option for more trims, so much space but 7 seats only for many versions is dumb.

One thing I have to give GM to, now and in the past, is that I believe they genuinely had the best tech in terms of infointanment and now with the SuperCruise. Easy to use. My pick would still be the Grand Highlander Hybrid for its impressive fuel economy, but this stands at a close second.

Can't go wrong with this or the GH, I'd say they're both at the top of the segment.
I prefer the center mounted gear shifter on the GH compared to the traverse's column mounted shifter.
Also, the third row window on the traverse is small and makes the back row a bit claustrophobic.

Long term (90k miles, I don't like the idea of these smaller 2. 5L 4 cylinder turbo engines in such large vehicles (vans included. A dependable V6 seems to make much more sense and I'll gladly let other people figure out if this approach ends up being higher cost of ownership.

It seems like Chevy is going back to its roots latelylower prices than other GM brands and the competition. Now all they have to do is sell those benefits without relying on some beautiful but non-specific marketing/advertising that doesn’t say WHY it’s the best.

Thanks Alex for showing the LS and LT variants, which I think have the better looking front ends than the RS and Z71 trims.
Also think that the Traverse is the looker of the new gen GM three-rows. Buick has the best interior though.

Well give it 5 years and then compare it to the GH. I really dont care about the shiny plastics and all the junk it has to take your concentration off the road. Give me reliability, low cost to own and longevity
reply

Got that right, with Camry car of the year, Ranger Raptor performance truck of the year, Tacoma TRD Off-road Hybrid Premium truck of the year, Land Cruiser adventure SUV and GX550 luxury SUV of the year

Until they offer a hybrid model, Grand Highlander still wins I think. Most people would pay a little more for hybrid, Toyota reliability, and extra legroom in third row
reply

It's too bad there's no other interior color or this would be at the top of my list. I just can't do black on black on black. Too dark. Other than that it looks great!
reply

The one thing I cannot figure out is what the point of these small turbo engines is The difference in MPG between this and a V6 or even V8 is minimal in many cases.
reply

Z71 is the only one worth getting over a minivan for supposed off-road ability. But only 7 3/4 clearance, temporary spare, and only seats 7. Disappointing.
reply

One thing I learned about up front price after my last car purchase. saving dollars up front isn’t worth a damn if you pay it out in service fees and repairs.
reply

Poor ground clearance for the Z71. Both the Honda Trails port and the Z71 are overpriced IMO. I'll go with the Honda based on reliability.
reply

Cant wait to see the Acadia on the same platform. I can only assume it will come shortly after the Traverse so as to not steal its shine.
reply

Alex, I think we better wait for the 35 mpg Hybrid version of the Traverse before 'we' start handing out SUV of the Year awards.
reply

Turbo from GM, I will wait 3 years to see the reliability or they have to add an electric motor to reduce the over work of turbo.
