This car is awesome. We got another LT model and this one has more features. And it's a very comfortable drive.

Chevrolet Was Not On Our Radar

Glad we bought a Chevy, 11/21/2023
2023 Chevrolet Traverse LT Cloth 4dr SUV AWD (3.6L 6cyl 9A)
5 of 5 people found this review helpful

We went to the Minneapolis Car Show this past year to see vehicles indoors without dealing with the March Weather in Wisconsin. We thought we wanted a Jeep Grand Cherokee L, Honda Pilot, Nissan Pathfinder, or Toyota Highlander. (((We did not buy into the hype on the YouTube Reviews about the Kia Telluride & the Hyundia Palisade. They were just falling over themselves comparing those two models to anything else in that category. Note: if you're towing with one of those vehicles you can only tow 1600 LBS if your trailer does not have trailer breaks.))) Any how we wondered unintentionally into the Chevy display. The Traverse caught my eye, and My Wife rolled her eyes. She definitely did not want a Chevy. Then a young lady from Chevy was talking to my wife about a $50.00 Gift Card from Target just for a test drive. I'm like don't give her your info a salesman will call and be a total PIA. But she did it for that $50.00 Target Gift Card. So, the following Saturday My Wife That HATES CAR SHOPPING said let's go drive a Traverse. It BLEW US AWAY. We could not believe the power, speed, quiet, ride roominess. The standard radio is better than my 9 Speaker Bose system in my Buick. So, we bought a 2023 Chevrolet Traverse LT Cloth in April of 2023. As I said Chevrolet was never on the radar. We did not buy this as a daily driver we bought it to serv a purpose. We need a vehicle to tow our Pontoon, Fishing Boat, & Kayak Trailer and go to the cabin on weekends. Also, to get us back and forth from Wisconsin & Florida as Snowbirds with the full efficiency of FWD and the availability of AWD when needed. Also, we needed as close to a Minivan storage with the seats folding flat as possible so my Wife can pack the Kitchen Sink when we go to Florida. Great comfort, Style, Power, V6 Engine, No Turbo, Great sounding radio large with enough infotainment screen.Etc. We started with the Premier and then for more money the High Country. Now we were knocking on the 60K Plus Door. It's not that we could not afford it but actual why afford it? We could not justify 60K Plus for an extra vehicle that will have limited use. So, we took a step back because the salesman was an Old-School High-Pressure Guy. Back off time. Left the dealership and hit the computer and found a Cloth LT for out the door $44,908 including taxes and fees. I bought it over the phone without even seeing it. The Traverse LT has all we need except I wish it has a heated steering wheel and the 360 cameras. Outside of that it fit our needs being an extra vehicle. I have experienced 31.4 mpg on the highway but not all the time however 27 to 30 mpg is very realistic depending on driving conditions. I turned 5,500 miles on it today and we are completely happy. It's Nice To Have Zero Complaints!!!

2023 Chevy Traverse Premier Family tank

2023 Chevrolet Traverse Premier 4dr SUV AWD (3.6L 6cyl 9A)

Recently purchased a 2023 Chevy Traverse Premier Redline. This vehicle is spacious and comfortable for the family. Has all the technology we need Android auto, Apple car play, 360 camera, heated and cooled seats, remote start, full cabin temperature control and just looks very stylish yet elegant and the list goes on and on. Even the fuel economy has been decent with a combined 24mpg with highway/city amd AWD.

Amazing power from the soon to be deleted 3.6 V6

Be aware the V6 will NOT be available after 2023!! 😒 So I had to move my purchase up a year and miss out on the Z71 option. At least I can add taller tires and skid plates later. I'm trading a 2015 CX-9 V6 AWD which I absolutely love, but it has high mileage and it's just time to move on. I wouldn't touch a 4 cyl CX-9 or a turbo. I have test driven a few of these Traverses over the last month and will pick up my 2023 AWD tomorrow from Hendrick. These are my observations so far ... The Stop/start which I hated in 2019, has evolved to almost acceptable. 2019 GM had the worst stop/start and NO way to shut it off. - Now, at a stoplight, you're no longer pummeled with hot air! Yay. As soon as I turned the AC on, the motor started up. - There is now a stop/start override switch! - Stop/start is no longer super aggressive - Stop/start now seems to require an extra hard press of the brake pedal to engage. Moving on... -The digital part of the instrument cluster is subpar. It's similar to Camry, but I like the one in my friends Camry better. Just not enough info available on GM screen at one time. - Analog Speedometer is VERY hard to read. It's gray on white!??? I prefer to see instant gas mileage or tire pressures, but forced to use the Digital speedometer. - When you set cruise control it adds a 2nd Gray needle to the analog speedo which I also find confusing. INTERIOR I prefer cloth to pleather, so any complaints about not being luxurious enough probably don't apply to me. Steering wheel is now leather wrapped, a step up from bare plastic of yore. I found the seats comfortable, but they don't get hot on high. I wish heated steering wheel would be included with heated seats (logical), but ALL OEMs seem to require you to buy a $2500+ technology package to get heated steered wheel! I never saw the need for cooled seats. In the Premium that I drove, I was shivering. I turned off the AC and asked the Sales associate what do I do now?? He said the seat cooling was on high. OMG, if that's your thing you'll love it. But not for me. 😜 TRACTION While making a UTurn, I punched it and the front was sliding all over the place. I realized it was in 2WD. I've never seen an AWD vehicle with a 2WD setting! 🤯 I set it to 4WD and tried the UTurn again. Still got some significant wheel spin, though this time from all 4 wheels! Either it has loads more power than my cx-9 OR the GM AWD system vectoring is not very good. I am unable to spin the wheels in my CX-9 no matter how fast I take off, so it was a surprise. I'm planning to up-size the tires anyway so it might get better. I haven't experienced any push back yet from lane wandering, falling asleep or front crash alert, so I can't speak to those features, except to say I hope they can be turned off! I typically do not use radar cruise either, I just watch the road ahead. STORAGE I was surprised that the interior space was slightly larger than the venerable CX-9, and the rear cubby almost twice as deep. Still don't think I'll use the cubby, unless it can double as a cooler for tailgating. 😂😂 APPEARANCE I find the lines of the Traverse more appealing than the Pilot which was my other contender. They're both kind of boxy, but the GM seems to have managed a bit of pizzazz. Even the new CX-90 with its $20k powertrain looks a bit BOXY. The Pathfinder also looks nice, especially their off road wheel pkg, but with upper control arm failures, I decided to skip it. I hope to have 8 happy years with the Traverse as I have with the CX-9. Best wishes.

Chevy 2023 LS

Ross , 11/05/2022
2023 Chevrolet Traverse LS 4dr SUV (3.6L 6cyl 9A)
7 of 8 people found this review helpful

The Chevy traverse LS entry level trim includes plenty of features at the best price. Exceptionally smooth ride like a high end luxury car and plenty of seating. It easy to service being a American car with the popular 3.6 engine and drivetrain for years of reliable service. the front wheel drive provide traction in rain and snow. I test drove dozens of cars and the traverse was by far the best choice and value.
