2020 Chevy Traverse – Buford, GA

There is only one engine that comes with the 2020 Chevy Traverse, but with how well it performs, one option is all you need. Under the hood rests a 3.6L V6 that utilizes direct injection to generates 310 hp and 266 lb-ft of torque. Equipped with a nine-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel-drive (AWD is optional), this beast has a fuel economy set at 22 mpg combined (18 city/27 highway). It can even haul up to 5,000 pounds, which is perfect for towing a boat or trailer. 

For extra torque when going over rough terrain, you can use the available Traction Mode Select feature to activate the Off-Road feature. The tool also allows you to switch between front-wheel-drive, all-wheel-drive, tow/haul, and off-road modes to optimize performance in different driving conditions.

When it comes to the exterior of the 2020 Chevy Traverse, there are many visible differences between the trim levels. 

The L rides on 18-inch silver-painted aluminum wheels and features dual-outlet exhaust. Black beltline moldings, rocker moldings, and mirror caps give a sleek look, while body-colored door handles and front fascia give a more uniformed appearance. LED daytime running lights and taillamps provide enhanced visibility. 

The LS trim level offers rear privacy windows to prevent passersby from peeking inside. It also features HID headlights for optimized visibility.

Stepping up to the LT Cloth model will get you added foglights and body-colored mirror caps. Heated side mirrors with integrated turn signal indicators are also included, as well as roof rails for additional storage. You can bring along oddly shaped items or extra luggage that won’t fit in the cabin. Similarly, the LT Leather trim level adds a programmable power liftgate that opens three different ways and has a memory function to program how you want it to open. 

Rolling on 20-inch dark gray-painted aluminum wheels, the RS model features all-season tires and signature black accents on the roof rails, window trim, and grille. This version even comes with the previously mentioned IntelliBeam high beam headlamps that will automatically turn off when approaching traffic comes into view. 

The Premier trim level adds chrome door handles and the hands-free gesture liftgate that can open four ways. This nifty feature can sense when the key fob is near. Simply extend your foot under the left-hand side of the rear bumper, and the liftgate will open. This is perfect for when your arms are full. LED headlights and heated, auto-dimming side mirrors with integrated turn signal indicators have also been added. 

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, the top-tier High Country rolls in on 20-inch polished alloy wheels and boasts body-colored side moldings and a dual-panel sunroof. 

The 2020 Chevy Traverse is also available in the Redline special edition. This is an appearance package that adds 20-inch high-gloss black wheel with red accents and blacked-out exterior styling elements for a sportier look. 

There are 10 paint colors that you can choose from on the Traverse as well. The options include Iridescent Pearl Tricoat, Summit White, Silver Ice Metallic, Satin Steel Metallic, Stone Gray Metallic, Graphite Metallic, Mosaic Black Metallic, Black Cherry Metallic, Midnight Blue Metallic, and Cajun Red Tintcoat.

The base L trim features premium cloth upholstery on the bucket seats and carpeted floors with mats. A grand total of 10 cupholders are located throughout the cabin, and you can easily store your umbrellas in the slender compartments made specifically for them.

It even comes with its own 4G LTE Wifi hotspot to keep you connected everywhere you go. Safety features include cruise control, a rearview camera, a tire pressure monitoring system, and OnStar capability. For people with older kids, Teen Driver is also included across all trims, which provides a report card on the young driver’s habits while operating the vehicle. It also mutes the audio system and prevents the vehicle from shifting into gear if the seatbelt is not fastened. 

As for the Chevy Traverse LS, it offers all of the same features as the L plus optional add-ons like a universal tablet holder, all-weather floor mats, protective seat covers, a rear-seat DVD entertainment system, and more. You can even add the highway safety kit that includes jumper cables, gloves, bungee tie-downs, and other emergency items.

The LT Leather version adds a larger 4.2-inch driver information center, an 8-point digital compass, and, of course, leather seating. This model also comes with the upgraded Chevrolet Infotainment 3 Plus System that is displayed on an 8-inch HD touchscreen. It also comes with the Convenience and Driver Confidence Package that includes remote start, heated front seats, and additional safety features such as blindspot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-change assist, and rear park assist.
