Redesigned for 2024, the Traverse has a boxier appearance and a smaller engine, namely a turbocharged 2.5-litre four-cylinder replacing the 3.6-litre V6. Output (315 horsepower versus 310) and torque (317 lb-ft versus 266) are both increased, mind you. Maximum towing capacity is still rated at 5,000 lbs, while the cabin continues to accommodate seven or eight passengers. The new dashboard incorporates a giant 17.7-inch touchscreen. GM’s Super Cruise hands-free driving assist is available.
Pros
- New, more torquey engine
- Interior as spacious as before
- More interesting multimedia system
Cons
- Some competitors are less energy efficient
- Uninspiring driving experience (previous generation)
- Initial quality and reliability to confirm
