About The Traverse

Built by General Motors, the Chevrolet Traverse is a full-size SUV built on the same platform as the GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave.

These owner’s manuals have information on how to get started, what’s in the vehicle, safety features and more.

You can find out everything about this car by reading through these manuals, just choose the correct year from the list on this page.

The car has evolved through 2 generations of design since it was first released to the public in 2008 and during that time the car has shrunk slightly making it more of a mid-sized SUV.

Originally the car had just one option of an engine, a 2.6-liter V6 gasoline mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission.

Then with the second-generation Traverse customers were able to choose a 2-liter turbo gasoline engine instead for a more sporty driving experience.

This second-generation model was also stuck with just one transmission like the 1st, though this time it was a 9 speed automatic.

As a customer buying a Chevrolet Traverse you can choose from a wide range of trims ranging from the entry-level “L” through to the sporty “Redline Edition”.

The least expensive option comes with an impressive range of features as standard in the way of safety, comfort and technology.

RS and Redline Edition trims push the boat out with aluminum alloy wheels, tinted windows and more aggressive styling.

You can also find non-performance trims on offer for the SUV too such as:

  • High Country
  • L
  • LS
  • LT
  • LTZ
  • Premier

Sales of the Traverse have been steadily increasing year-on-year with the new face-lift versions bringing a burst of new sales.
