Handles nicely like a car and not a SUV. Nice two tone trim. Standard model does not have Bluetooth which is a shame. Has in-car dialing, either via connected smartphone or via its own phone number. The system has voice prompts. Control of mostly everything via controls on steering wheel. Fairly economical to run compared to its size which is good. Rear has independent air conditioning, which is a much appreciated feature. This has seats for six passengers and driver. Rear two seats can fold down to make trunk room. Great for large families who want an economical SUV. LS model has Sirius radio, which is a welcomed feature. Engine noise is low helped by well isolated cabin. Battery is a real pain to change, as the battery compartment is built into the rear seat floor and is bolted down and hard to switch out without proper tools. Reliability is a slight issue and this vehicle has gone back to the dealer several times to fix small issues. Trunk is roomy with the third row of seats being folded down. Tinted rear windows as standard on the L'S model, which is so necessary in Florida.

My Chevy Traverse is the best car I have ever owned. I bought this vehicle for my family as we now have three teenagers and three large dogs. It is a great vehicle for traveling, and the second-row captain seats were the feature that sealed the deal. Other features I absolutely love are the passenger and rear climate controls, seat warmers and remote start.
