The 2026 Chevrolet Traverse delivers 315 horsepower and 326 lb-ft of torque from its turbocharged 2.5L engine. It can tow up to 5,000 lbs, making it great for hauling boats, campers, or gear.

All-wheel drive is available, and the available Z71 trim adds specialized off-road features: twin-clutch AWD, skid plates, tow hooks, an off-road suspension, Hill Descent Control, and all-terrain tires. The Traverse handles smoothly whether you're in the city, on highways, or tackling rugged terrain.
