![]() The eight-passenger model also has a tether anchor for the second-row middle seat. The first and second rows offer spacious and comfortable seating, and even the third row can accommodate adults, though these seats are best left to children for longer trips.įor installing child safety seats, there are two complete sets of LATCH connectors for the second-row outboard seats. There’s plenty of passenger room throughout the cabin. Leather upholstery, power-adjustable front seats, heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel and heated second-row seats are available. The Traverse seats up to eight people across three rows (seven with the available second-row captain’s chairs). "Its largest-in-class interior affords massive cargo carrying capability and third-row seating that can comfortably fit adults." - Motor Trend (2022).It offers the most first-row cubby storage in its class as well." - Car and Driver (2022) Six carry-on suitcases fit behind the third row, which means it wins at carrying both people and their luggage. "Fold down the second- and third-row seats and it becomes a cargo-hauling champ with more space than any of its rivals."Cargo space is another Traverse strength, going from 23 cubic feet to a massive 98.2 cubic feet with rows two and three folded." - Kelley Blue Book.A power liftgate and a hands-free power liftgate are available. There’s 23 cubic feet of room behind the third row, 57.8 cubic feet behind the second row and a maximum capacity of 98.2 cubic feet. The Traverse can hold more cargo than most rivals in the midsize SUV segment. The cargo floor behind the third row is also useful as is the covered, deep cargo bin." - Consumer Reports (2022) There's plenty of room even with only the third seat folded. With all rear seats folded, the cargo area can easily swallow all manner of bulky items. "The cargo area has a ton of versatility and volume."The Traverse provides spacious accommodations for seven or eight passengers, including a third row sized for adults." - Car and Driver (2022).Common things like climate and audio are controlled by dials and buttons." - Kelley Blue Book (2022) "The Traverse’s layout and technology don’t feel as fresh as a Kia Telluride with its widescreen display and airy feel, but the Chevy’s functions are logical and simple to use.Otherwise I'm very happy with my purchase. My only negative comment would be that the front seat bottoms seem to be a bit small in area. It has more than adequate acceleration, stops very well and the handling is crisp and very responsive. It is so quiet you can barely hear the engine when running. I especially like the under floor storage compartment behind the 3rd row seating. I found the fit and finish of the interior to be very good. You can adjust them front to rear and they recline too. I really like the second row bucket seats. My LT has most of the bells and whistles you will ever need. Excellent dash graphics and logically laid out. I have to like/love the outside first, otherwise I move on to something else. I wanted a Tahoe but couldn't justify the steep price. From here on out I'll stick to driving GMs as rental cars. I expected more for the price, and I'm quite disappointed in the overall quality. ![]() I love the space in the Traverse, but after owning one for 50,000 miles I've had enough. I find the seats to be uncomfortable for trips lasting more than 2 hours. The ride is good on very smooth roads, but bone jarring on anything else. It's a common defect with the Traverse, but it's nothing GM will address. At 2200 RPMs there is a very loud engine drone due to the exhaust resonance. ![]() Shortly after that was fixed, the stereo touch screen went blank for about 15 seconds (luckily, it only did this once. The manual gear select button doesn't always work (it's no longer under warranty), which is a common problem with these vehicles due to a bad wire connection. The interior started out quiet but now has several small squeaks and rattles. At about 5000 miles the center console had to be replaced because it started warping. Ever since we got it, the tailgate button intermittently quits working, but it can't be fixed as it's not replicable enough for the dealership to identify the problem and it doesn't throw errors. Nice looks and space for a mid-sized SUV but there are too many issues with this vehicle for me to recommend. ![]()
