The 2012 Chevrolet Traverse Story

|
Room – And Personality – To Spare
There is loads of space in Traverse, with seating for up to eight and a vast cargo capacity of up to 3297 L (116.4 cu. ft.)**. Its practicality extends to a combination of performance generated by the standard 281 horsepower 3.6L V6 engine and an impressive 8.4 L/100 km highway fuel consumption rating.† That, along with its distinctive style and personality, make it no surprise that Traverse was named a 2011 Best Buy from Consumers Digest.††

The Not So Standard Equipment
It begins with space - enough for eight and all their stuff. But that’s only the beginning. It’s the quality of the experience along the way that defines Traverse. Technology is used to enhance everything from performance and fuel efficiency to driver control. And an extensive list of comfort, convenience, communications and entertainment features spread the rewards throughout the cabin. Raise your standard - in the spacious crossover that takes care of you - and your passengers.

Don't Just Think Big - Think Smart
Even with every seat occupied, Traverse provides a substantial 691 L (24.4 cu. ft.) of cargo space behind the third-row seat. With the second and third-row seats folded down, you get a full 3297 L (116.4 cu. ft.)** of room - more than enough for a 50-inch flatscreen TV. The space isn't only generous, it's also flexible, thanks to the Smart SlideTM second-row seat that can adjust fore and aft up to 89 mm (3.5 in.) to open up easier access to the third row or increase second-row legroom - and recline to increase passenger comfort.

Traverse also helps you find the best route to your destination with an available Navigation Radio system that includes voice recognition functionality.
