2025 Chevy Traverse

Most shoppers will flock to the base LT trim because it's the most affordable and comes standard with a generous list of features including a large 17.7-inch center touchscreen and a sizable package of advanced driver aids. You can also customize the LT with three notable optional packages. Folks who enjoy off-roading or like the look of a rugged SUV should opt for the Z71. It comes equipped with features like all-terrain tires and an off-road-tuned suspension. But if you prefer luxury and have a larger budget, the new High Country trim should impress you with its leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, and loads of tech, including the Super Cruise hands-free driving system. The dark-themed RS model comes loaded with most features and boasts a sporty design.

The Traverse is a solid pick thanks to its big interior and impressive number of tech features. But it's not the only three-row midsize SUV we recommend. The Kia Telluride and Hyundai Palisade have been two of our favorite midsize three-row SUVs for a few years because of their upscale interiors and all-around polish. The relatively new Toyota Grand Highlander, which is larger than the Highlander, is another favorite of ours and offers a fuel-efficient hybrid powertrain. Stay tuned for our test team's thorough Expert Rating of the Chevy Traverse.
