2022 Chevy Traverse
The 2022 Chevrolet Traverse puts strength, comfort, and best-in-class cargo space at your fingertips. Chevy’s midsize crossover SUV combines the family friendly (three-row seating, smartphone integration) with the adventure-ready (available all-wheel drive, tow-friendly performance). Let’s check it out.
What’s new for the 2022 Chevrolet Traverse?
- Newly standard driving aids, including blind-spot monitoring and forward collision mitigation
- New infotainment system, which features the new wireless versions of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Redesigned front fascia with new head and tail lamps
Which 2022 Chevy Traverse should I choose?
One of the greatest things about the Traverse is that it offers six trim models, giving drivers the ability to balance their budgets with the luxury features they crave. Choose between the base LS, mid-grade LT Cloth, stylish LT Leather, sporty RS, upscale Premier, and top-of-the-line High Country.
Here’s a look at each Traverse trim model’s highlights.
The base LS is nicely equipped with tech features, including smart safety features:
- Automatic LED head lamps
- Eight-passenger seating
- Cloth upholstery
- Tri-zone automatic climate control
- 7-inch touchscreen infotainment with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Forward collision mitigation
- Lane-keeping Assist
- Blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert
When you upgrade to the LT Cloth, you’ll enjoy a longer list of utility features:
- Fog lamps
- Roof rails
- Power-adjustable driver seat
- Leather-wrapped steering wheel
- Second-row captain’s chairs (reduces total seating to seven)
- Wireless charging pad
Like the name suggests, the LT Leather adds leather upholstery. But it also treats you to increased comfort and a smarter tech lineup:
- Remote engine start
- Leather upholstery
- Heated front seats
- Heated, leather-wrapped steering wheel
- Bigger 8-inch infotainment touchscreen
- Power liftgate
The sporty RS offers styling elements you won’t find on any other Traverse, adding to the LT Leather trim model with:
- LT Premium package contents
- 20-inch Dark aluminum wheels
- Blacked-out exterior trim elements
When you upgrade to the Premier, your Traverse will literally shine, with chrome trim and richer interior comfort:
- Chrome door handles
- Chrome roof rails
- Heated and ventilated front seats
- Heated rear seats
- Power-adjustable steering column
- Memory settings for driver seat, steering wheel, and exterior mirrors
- Hands-free power liftgate
- Optional trailering package
Thanks to the upscale High Country, you can enjoy all of the aforementioned features, along with:
- Panoramic sunroof
- Power-folding third-row bench seat
- Standard trailering package
How does this three-row, midsize crossover drive?
You can expect a similar performance from all six trim models, because each comes with the same powertrain. A 3.6-liter V6 drives the front wheels with 310 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque. However, all-wheel drive is optional, which means a sportier performance in off-road situations and maximum traction on dangerously icy roads.
If you have a boat at home, the Traverse also offers sturdy towing capabilities. This midsize crossover can tow up to 5,000 pounds, depending on trim level and equipment. With that kind of muscle, you can even tow a mini camper or a family of Jet Skis.
