Room for More: 2027 Chevrolet Traverse

2027 Chevrolet Traverse: A Three-Row Chevrolet

The 2027 Chevrolet Traverse brings three-row versatility to Chevrolet’s midsize SUV lineup. Its passenger-focused layout provides an alternative to the brand’s truck-based full-size SUVs, with room that shifts from group transportation to weekend projects.

At Doug Henry Chevrolet in Farmville, NC, shoppers researching SUVs for families can compare four trims: LT, Z71, RS, and High Country. LT emphasizes seating flexibility, Z71 adds specialized AWD hardware, RS brings distinctive black exterior details, and High Country offers elevated cabin appointments.

Exterior Design

The Traverse pairs a substantial SUV stance with functional equipment, from LT’s everyday utility to Z71’s terrain-oriented wheel and tire setup.

Exterior Dimensions

• Length: 204.49 inches; 204.72 inches for Z71
• Width without mirrors: 79.57 inches; 79.96 inches for Z71

• Height with hardware: 70.90 inches; 72.05 inches for Z71

• Ground clearance: 6.77 inches; 7.76 inches for Z71

The Z71’s extra clearance provides confidence when driving over uneven surfaces.

Exterior Highlights

• LT wheels: Standard 18-inch aluminum wheels; available 20-inch designs
