2019 Chevrolet Traverse Review: A Roomy 3-Row Family SUV

If you need a lot of space to haul big kids and all their stuff, the interior of the 2019 Chevy Traverse promises cargo space, seating room, and a roomier approach to the midsize SUV. Edmunds special correspondent Elana Scherr asks in her review of the Traverse if there are any midsize SUVs that feel a little more grown-up.

About the 2019 Chevrolet Traverse
Chevrolet redesigned the Traverse crossover SUV last year. It is now lighter and offers an additional 3 inches of legroom for second-row passengers, not to mention more third-row legroom than the Honda Pilot and the Toyota Highlander. The Traverse is one of the roomiest three-row crossovers available. For more room, you'll have to look at a minivan or a full-size SUV like the Chevrolet Suburban.

The Traverse uses a 310-horsepower V6 that's paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission, a combination that helps achieve up to 21 mpg combined (18 city/27 highway). There's also a turbocharged four-cylinder engine, but it's only available on the sport-styled RS trim.

The 2019 Chevrolet Traverse boasts seven trim levels: L, LS, LT Cloth, LT Leather, RS, Premier and High Country. These trims run the gamut from reasonably well-equipped to luxury SUV competitor. Most trims are fitted with a V6, with the sport-styled RS an exception.

The range-topping Chevy Traverse High Country comes with all the goodies from the Premier trim and adds an all-wheel-drive system with an auto-locking rear differential, along with automatic high beams, the panoramic sunroof, adaptive cruise control, a power-folding third-row seat, and unique interior leather upholstery. It can only be had with all-wheel drive.
