The 2020 Chevy Traverse Trims and Packages
The Chevy Traverse may be a midsize SUV, but it looks and feels like a full-size SUV thanks to its brawny exterior and its comfortable interior. It’s one of the best midsize SUVs on the market thanks to its style, its quality, its affordability, and its performance. Now, the Traverse is back for the 2020 model year, and it is building on its tradition of excellence, earning itself top rankings in its class.
Now is a great time to take a look at the 2020 Chevy Traverse. Dealerships are beginning to welcome the new models, and special offers abound. Take a closer look at what the 2020 Chevy Traverse has to offer to determine if it’s the right SUV for you:
Exterior Styling
The all-new Chevy Traverse has a brawny yet sophisticated look about it. The large SUV has plenty of heft, but there are smooth edges and thoughtful details throughout to create a little more luxury. The square wheel wells have just enough curve at the corners to not look blocky, and the front end swoops inward slightly, creating more cohesion with the geometric grille. The headlights dip into the groove at the center of the grille, creating a cohesive and stylish front end.
You’ll continue to see slight bends and grooves throughout the body of the Traverse, giving it enough visual interest while also preserving its unique styling so that it stands apart from other midsize SUVs on the market. You’ll get a few different options when you change the trim level, such as a black body bar, fog lights, and chrome accents.
Interior Styling and Space
The 2020 Chevy Traverse is as stylish on the inside as it is on the outside. High-quality materials are used throughout, and the center stack is designed for ease of use by both the driver and the front passenger. Comfortable seating is available in the front and the rear rows.
The Traverse seats either seven or eight passengers, depending on the configuration you choose. You can opt for captain’s chairs in the second row, which would allow you to seat seven total passengers, or you can get a bench seat in the second row, which would bump capacity to eight. Both options have their pros and cons, but both offer comfortable seating for all.
Power and Performance
With a big SUV, you need big power. Otherwise, the SUV will strain against the load of your passengers and your cargo. Plus, you don’t want to get stuck in the mud or snow. With the 2020 Chevy Traverse, you get the power you need to tow your most precious cargo and still have a fun driving experience.
All versions of the 2020 Traverse come with a 3.6-liter V6 engine that puts out 310 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, giving you plenty of power for driving and towing. The engine is paired with a shiftable, nine-speed automatic transmission, which offers smooth handling while also giving you the chance to feel more in control of your driving experience.
There’s no engine upgrade, but you won’t feel like you need one. You’ll love the way the way the Traverse drives.
Comfort and Convenience Features
The Traverse is meant for big families or those with big groups of friends and family. Not only is it designed with enough seating for big groups, but it’s also designed with everyone’s comfort in mind.
With the base model, you get features like three-zone climate control, a sun sensor, dual-illuminating vanity mirrors, interior air filtration, one-touch power windows, cupholders on all rows, and seatback storage.

The system is connected to six speakers for great sound, and the driver can easily adjust the system with steering wheel-mounted controls.
Other great comfort and convenience features include heated mirrors, keyless ignition, and hands-free entry.
You can upgrade to get more features if you add on a package or move up the trim levels. Some options include a universal tablet holder, illuminated door sill plates, a cargo area organizer, protective seat covers, a horizontal cargo net, heated seats, turn signal-integrated mirrors, a leather wrapped steering wheel, rear-seat entertainment with a DVD player, and satellite radio. You can create a luxurious driving experience for everyone.
