Chevrolet Traverse
The Chevrolet Traverse is a three-row midsize SUV aimed at modern families looking for a spacious vehicle. Under the hood is a 3.6-litre V6 engine that delivers 310 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque. A nine-speed automatic transmission handles shifting, but sadly all-wheel drive only comes standard on higher trim levels. Max towing capacity is rated at 5,000 pounds. Due to COVID-19, Chevrolet has postponed changes to the Traverse until the 2022 model year.
