My main complaint about the choice of options for the traverse is, if you want the bose sound system you have to get super cruise. From what i read for super cruise you have to pay for a subscription for it to continue to work after a free 3 year trial. I just want the better sound system.

Great Review, My RS is being built as I type. I can't wait!! Going from a 17 Acadia to the Traverse RS and I am excited... Needed a little more room and the styling combined with tech is why.

It's impressive for sure. If they keep iterating existing platforms into highly competitive vehicles, people will take notice. The Chevy Trax for example has been well received and is excellent for the price. The new Chevy Equinox looks promising. This is a huge improvement over the outgoing Chevy Traverse. They're definitely going in the right direction.

@@sansin6250 While the Z71 looks fantastic, I'd probably try to convince Megan to go with the RS for the features (cooled seats are nice down here in Georgia) and the slightly crisper ride and handling balance, along with slightly better steering. Plus it's gorgeous in the red and black combo, and we're big UGA fans.

It’s May 6th waiting on delivery of a Silver RS fully loaded had the order in January 8 I might be the only one riding in it it’s just Me & my Wife. She has an Infinity. QX50 Sport around Christmas she said you should get back in a Tahoe and I seen this model and I’ve been sold since.. my sales person says he has the Vin number so it should be any day. This dealer here in Indianapolis got one in last week. He says mines should be next. But it was a LS..

Nice long review. My question is with this for towing and the 4 cylinder…can it tow a 4,000lbs trailer for 500 miles no issues? I’m told to stick with v6 for long term health of engine. Also, what the heck is the max tongue weight on it?

@jax1079

2 ай бұрын

Thanks! Not sure about the max tongue, but I'd probably trust the new turbo 4 more than the old V6, which didn't have the best reputation. The turbo 4 is new but based on the 2.7 used in the trucks, which I would imagine has higher duty ratings than the old V6

Strangely no, not on the ones we tested anyway

“I would seriously consider buying a vehicle because it was equipped with Super Cruise.” That’s exactly what I’m doing this week, buying an Acadia with Super Cruise sight unseen after having tried Super Cruise on a Lyriq and a Yukon. That the feature is now in a mainstream vehicle, that’s like “would you like a Model T?” Hell yeah. And, I don’t care what that T’s engine sounds like.

To some for sure, but more power and torque with better economy is nice

No fog lights they raised the price but cut the engine down from a V6 to a 4 banger.... But hey you have a 20 inch display and 50 different ambient light colors to chose from.... Adding more non practical stuff and taking away the practical to attract the suckers who have high personal debt.

@jax1079

Two things: first, the new engine makes more power and torque while returning better fuel economy over the NA V6 that was notoriously problematic yet everyone suddenly cares about displacement; second, products are dictated by consumer behavior, and the vast (vast) majority of the market has shown it's willing to pay more for tech gadgetry and flair despite rising costs. Consumers are the ones who took out 6, 7, and 8 year loans to buy vehicles they can't afford, which drove up prices.

You sound like an aging boomer who would rather have a small block that gets 14 miles to the gallon because they're easier to work on your self because they constantly break , and even though you will never need all the torque and hp a smaller displacement just won't do because bragging rights. Also. I bet you say things like- I just like the way it sounds. (Because that's what you really want every single day on your drive to work in city traffic).

If you need all those "safety features", then maybe you should'nt be driving period. Accepting these type of tEcKnoLOgIes, as "Baked into the Cake" is not where I want to be at. That said, The Z71 is one of the nicest (if not the nicest) SUV's I've seen so far this year. Have to see how the new engine holds up.

Luxury? Never heard of her.

All the hype over the new Traverse gadgets to cover up the small 4 cylinder turbo engine. Turbo says the engine is too small, they are pressurizing the small engine to make it produce more power giving false impression you have power. We were interested in a new Traverse but never with a 4 cylinder. We have a 2017 GMC Acadia with a V-6 and have gotten 34 MPG on the highway. No way will the 4-cylinder be able to maintain its power over the life of the vehicle, as the engine wears it will be much less than a V-6 as it wears. GM has lost this customer. Reply
