It's refreshing to see someone actually review a lower trim on a new vehicle. Overall Chevy designed a very good looking SUV.

they so badly needed to keep the 3.6 V6 in this.

The new Chevy Traverse looks AWESOME, wow! Thanks for the review. Please keep up the great work on your channel Zack, and greetings from Germany!

I really like the way it looks I just don't think it's a good idea to put a small Engine in a big vehicle 😔

What does it matter what you think? Are you also a mechanical engineer? Do you know how this motor was built and what its durability will be? No. The Tacoma, Ranger, Colorado, and Canyon have “small engines” and are designed to tow and haul thousands of pounds easily and daily. V6 engines are making power that V8s were making 10-15 years ago. Times have changed.

@@G-Rated turbo 4s under any kind of load beyond hauling people are going to get the same, or maybe worse, fuel economy as an NA V6 (eg: new Tacoma vs new Frontier). You don't have to be a mechanical engineer to understand why that is: turbo needs more fuel, engine runs hotter, efficiency drops. Trucks with turbo 4s are "lifestyle" trucks. If you have actual towing needs, buy an F150 with the 5.0L V8 and move on.

The best looking Traverse to date. Furthermore, I'm impressed with Chevrolet's latest design language

I am amazed you are finally reviewing what is possibly the most overlooked family SUV of all time. Proud of you! Apparently all of the other car reviewers for the most part seem to totally forget that these, and the Acaida and Enclave ever exist at all.

Cool video bro I hope you have a good weekend take care this is from new Zealand 💯💯

I've always liked the way these look, & the interior looks pretty classy as well.

The Traverse went from bland to weird to quite cool with these new lines during it's existence.. seems to makes duty well, carry people and stuff around with some comfort and safety without being too show-off

Great review. I hope a lot cheaper than competitors like GH and Pilot

How is the ride comfort when comparing it with Tahoe air suspension? Air suspension is missing in this.

2024 Traverse can tow 5000lbs when equipped. The 2.5T offers an increase in both HP (18) and TrQ (60) from it's predecessor V6. Its also very closely related to their new 2.7T used in Trucks just modified for trans-verse applications.

Nice review, and great K5 pictures!

Thanks for the review . I have a 2020 Traverse . Recently teenagers crash into the back of it at a stop sign . I'm thinking on getting a new one, but I'm still skeptical about the 4 cylinder engine🤔

Why captain seats? A family suv should have a bench. Put 5 people in 2 rows and rest for the cargo.

Don't get me wrong, I really like how it looks and this will manage to work for anybody interested in buying it and maybe be more reliable than the awful 3.6 V6 every GM vehicle had...not saying I'd like it to equal the Tahoe but it's just that I will always be against the idea of somewhat large, front wheel drive SUVs with very small engines.

I think the Z71 or RS trim looks better. But Chevy did a good job with the change in style of the New Traverse

I’m thinking of ordering this trim but with supercruise, pano roof and the evotex seats. However that jacks the price up to 49k

Got my wife the CX90 and only reason I’m considering this in the RS is because of comfort. Engine wise the cX90 is a joy 🤩 but the interior is a little rough. Depending on how the family fits if not I will be getting the new Tahoe instead. That said it’s a nice ride. Motor wise of course ford kicks it in the nuts but honestly for a city car and everyday not too bad.

The Traverse used to have really similar total interior space in cubic feet compared to the previous gen Tahoe because of the live rear axle. In fact the 3rd row had more leg room and depending on how you measured, more cargo space. FWD unibody versus RWD body on frame just offers better packaging. I dunno about this current gen, and quite frankly, if that matters (and towing doesn't) - a minivan is the way to go. Would I buy a Traverse? No, but when I go to rent, I'd take a Traverse over a Tahoe or Expedition most likely, unless it was snowing and one had 4WD and one didn't.

Turbo engines The majority of the driving public do not know enough about engines, turbos, cubic inches, torque and horsepower to care. Just like an air compressor, the higher the pressure you run it the shorter the life of the pump, a car engine is a pump. Turbos pressurize the engine to falsely make it put out more power. The 4 cylinders lose power as they get more miles on them, there is no substitute for cubic inches, horsepower and torque. I have built engines and turbo's boost the pressure into the small engines creating more power at the expense of the life of the engine. Your maintenance cost will exponentially increase with a turbo when it fails. Any economy you may have gotten from the turbo will be totally lost on the replacement cost of the turbo. This vehicle is way too large/heavy for a 4 cylinder. A long list of gadgets will not negate the lack of power from a 4 cylinder, not to mention the turbo lag when you need all the power from the small 4 cylinder. GM has lost this customer. We have a 2017 ACADIA V-6, 34 MPG highway.

First!

So since the 2.7L is a joke now the 2.5L will follow! GM all vehicles look alike now great job
