Roomy, Comfy, and Capable: the 2022 Chevy Traverse

2022 Chevrolet Traverse Exterior

Roomy across three rows and spacious enough for a lot of gear, the 2022 Chevy Traverse is a smart pick for larger families, active individuals, and people who make deliveries for platforms like Schipt. Larger than competing midsize SUVs, the new Chevrolet Traverse delivers a lot of metal for its starting price of $33,700 MSRP.

Powertrain Details

When they contact our San Diego, CA Chevrolet dealership to inquire about the Chevy Traverse, many drivers ask us about the SUV’s powertrain.

The nice-looking SUV is powered by a 3.6-liter V6 engine that delivers a healthy 310 horsepower and 266 lb-ft of torque. A nine-speed automatic transmission is paired with the engine, and it’s quick to switch gears.

The new Chevrolet Traverse has standard front-wheel drive. If you want to enjoy some added sure-footedness during times when the weather is bad, you should opt for the available all-wheel drive system.

Passenger Room, Cargo Space, and Maximum Tow Rating

Given the physical size of the Chevrolet Traverse, it’s not surprising that the SUV has standard seating for eight adult passengers. Higher trims replace the second-row bench with captain’s chairs, which drops the vehicle’s passenger capacity to seven.

If you stop by Kearny Mesa Chevrolet to test drive a new Chevrolet Traverse, you’ll instantly sense how powerful the SUV is.

When the SUV is properly equipped, it’s strong enough to tow as much as 5,000 pounds. The vehicle is also roomy enough to transport cargo and bulky items like furniture.

Standard Equipment

All the latest Chevrolet models come with sought-after equipment. One of the features parents of young drivers appreciate the most when they learn about the 2022 Chevrolet Traverse is the SUV’s Teen Driver system. This feature allows you to set parameters like a maximum speed for times when you’re not in command of your SUV.

Parents and pet owners are also fans of the SUV’s rear-seat reminder. That feature will issue an alert if you’ve left a child or a pet in the back as you attempt to exit your vehicle.

Here are some of the SUV’s other standard features:

  • Wi-Fi hotspot
  • Tri-zone automatic climate control
  • Forward collision warning and intervention system
  • Lane departure warning with lane-keeping assist
  • Keyless entry
