Chevrolet introduces all-new Traverse crossover for 2024



Three-row midsize SUV has new
safety features, 17.7-inch screen


(July 19, 2023) DETROIT — The all-new 2024 Chevrolet Traverse has been redesigned from the ground up offering a design with more truck-like proportions, key safety features with families in mind, combined with greater horsepower and torque from an all-new engine. The new Traverse is positioned to lead in its highly competitive segment and grow its customer base thanks to the new off-road capable Z71 model.


“Our new Traverse is designed and engineered to act and look more like an SUV,” said Scott Bell, vice president, Chevrolet. “Led by the all-new Z71, the 2024 Traverse builds on the success of its predecessor and will undoubtedly enable us to be in more customer driveways.”

Four distinct trims — LS, LT, Z71 and RS — offer unique design and greater content choices, with all-new and enhanced safety features and technologies across the lineup.

All models are powered by an all-new 2.5L turbocharged engine that delivers a GM-estimated 315 horsepower and GM-estimated 317 lb-ft of torque, delivering more power than the previous models, including a 19% increase in torque. It is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and available all-wheel drive — including an off-road-capable twin-clutch AWD system unique to the Z71. When properly equipped, the new Traverse has a max trailering rating of up to 5,000 pounds.

The Traverse Z71 answers the call of experience-seeking adventurers who are bringing the family and their gear along for the journey, with a roster of off-road-capable features included as standard:
      
       •
More than 1-inch increased ground clearance coupled with increased track width for added stability, handling and capability
       
        • All-terrain tires bring increased capability coupled with 18-inch wheels designed exclusively for Z71

        • Unique front fascia purposely designed for improved approach angle, with an aluminum skid plate and signature Z71 red tow hooks
       
        • Twin-clutch AWD system designed to optimize traction and handling in off-road driving conditions

        • Unique dampers with hydraulic rebound control to improve off-road-capability
       
         • Specific Terrain Mode within the driver-selectable drive modes
       
         • Hill Descent Control
       
          • Standard trailering package


       
When it comes to safety and driver assistance technologies, the 2024 Traverse delivers with meaningful features, starting with standard Chevy Safety Assist — a suite of safety features and driver assistance technologies that includes:

        Automatic Emergency Braking
        Forward Collision Alert
        Following Distance Indicator
        Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning
        IntelliBeam High Beam Assist

        Side Bicyclist Alert
        Rear Pedestrian Alert
        Reverse Automatic Braking

Available features include Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance technology, including trailering and automatic lane change capabilities, Enhanced Automatic Parking Assist and Driver Attention Assist.

Framed by an all-new, more purposeful silhouette, the styling of the redesigned Traverse balances crossover- and truck-inspired design elements to give the vehicle a rugged, ready-for-anything presence. A planted stance, with wheels pushed to the corners and strong-appearing shoulders, add to the commanding presence.

“The bold exterior of the all-new Traverse helps redefine its role and capability for customers,” said Phil Zak, executive design director, Global Chevrolet. “It is as versatile as ever, but with an increased focus on capability that reflects the spirit of its owners.”

The new Traverse’s interior is all about the driver experience. It picks up the technology-forward ethos of other recently introduced Chevrolet models, with clean, sweeping lines and a lower beltline that conveys a more spacious feel. The instrument panel is also lower than the previous model, which enhances outward visibility and the feeling of airiness.

Display screens are the centerpiece of the cabin, starting with the best-in-class standard 17.7-inch-diagonal color touchscreen. It’s more than two times larger than the largest available screen in the previous model and is the gateway to the Traverse’s connectivity. Wireless phone charging and Wi-Fi Hotspot are also available, and six USB ports are standard.

The Traverse is connected by OnStar to provide customers with a variety of available safety, entertainment, convenience and driver experience features, including 24/7 access to live OnStar advisors, on-demand vehicle diagnostics, HD streaming, in-vehicle apps, and more.

The Traverse will be available early 2024, with production to take place at GM’s Lansing Delta Township facility in Michigan.
