The Traverse is one of the most spacious and family-friendly three-row midsize SUVs on the market, especially when it comes to the rear seats. A new feature called Buckle to Drive can prevent your teenage driver from shifting the vehicle out of park if their seatbelt is not buckled—an industry first. Meanwhile, the 310-horsepower, 3.6-litre V6 engine can tow up to 5,000 pounds. It is paired with a nine-speed transmission and a traction mode selector for extra confidence.
