The first-generation of Chevy Traverse models was released back in 2009. Initially classified as a mid-size SUV, the vehicle has evolved over time. If you are searching for the perfect family vehicle, this one is worth taking the time to look at. Currently, in its second generation, the Traverse just keeps getting better with time.
The seating capacity varies depending on the production year and the trim level. Generally, the Traverse models can seat seven people, but some have been configured to hold up to eight. If you have a larger family, you may want to look for a model with eight seats to accommodate the needs of everyone in your clan. As for cargo space, you will be quite pleased with what you find in the back of these SUVs, but do note that it will vary depending on the model year.
For 2018 through 2020 models, behind the third row of seating is a space measuring about 23 cubic feet. That’s plenty of room for backpacks, sports gear, and groceries. If you need more room, you can fold down the back row to expand the area to 57.8 cubes. If that still isn’t enough, you can flatten both back rows to access the maximum cargo area measured at 98.2 cubic feet. If you are looking at an older model, 2017 and earlier, some had a maximum cargo capacity of 116.3 cubic feet. As you can imagine, the Traverse is quite a cavernous vehicle!
Also, depending on many different aspects, the towing range for the Traverse varies between 1,500 and 5,000 pounds. This can depend on numerous factors, including production year, trim level, and powertrain.
