Chevrolet introduces the all-new 2018 Traverse wrapped in bold and refined styling. The completely redesigned Traverse offers technologies to help keep passengers comfortable and connected.

With available seating for up to eight and a longer wheelbase than the current model, Traverse delivers what is expected to be best-in-class third-row legroom, maximum cargo room and passenger volume with an enhanced roster of available active safety features.

Chevrolet adds two new trim levels for the 2018 Traverse -- the sporty RS and luxurious High Country -- to offer customers more choices for a personalized appearance.

The new RS package includes unique, blacked-out exterior cues with a black chrome grille, black bowtie, 20-inch wheels and more.

The High Country trim features premium content and technology, including a unique interior trim featuring Loft Brown leather appointments with suede accents, 20-inch polished wheels, High Country badging, D-Optic headlamps, standard twin-clutch AWD and power-fold third row seats.

A new 3.6L V-6 and nine-speed automatic transmission form the standard propulsion system, which is expected to offer nearly 10 percent more horsepower than the current model. The combination also supports an estimated 5,000-pound trailering capacity.

Sporting the new RS trim, the Traverse features a 2.0L turbocharged engine that provides a unique driving experience, with more maximum torque than the V-6. It is also paired with the nine-speed automatic transmission.

Both engines feature new intelligent stop/start technology that determines the best times for fuel-saving engine-stop events, based on a variety of driving factors. A new Traction Mode Select allows the driver to make real-time adjustments to the vehicle's driving mode to account for varying road conditions.
