About the Chevrolet Traverse
The Chevrolet Traverse is a full-size three-row SUV designed for families who need real space, real capability, and a comfortable ride across the kind of terrain South Dakota delivers — long highway stretches, gravel roads, and unpredictable winters. With seating for up to eight passengers and a turbocharged engine producing 328 horsepower, the Traverse handles daily life and longer hauls without compromise.
Available in four trims — LT, Z71, RS, and High Country — the Traverse gives buyers a clear path from a well-equipped entry point to a fully loaded premium SUV. The adventure-ready Z71 comes standard with all-wheel drive, while the sport-styled RS and premium High Country bring elevated refinement. Standard Chevy Safety Assist technology and available Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance put the Traverse among the most safety-equipped family SUVs in its class.
Why South Dakota Families Choose the Traverse
Three-Row Family Space
The Traverse seats up to eight passengers with genuine third-row access — useful for families heading to a Lake Oahe weekend or hauling the whole team to an away game in Selby or McLaughlin. The second-row Smart Slide seat makes getting kids in and out of the third row quick and easy.
Available All-Wheel Drive
AWD is available across the LT, RS, and High Country trims, and comes standard on the Z71. For western South Dakota winters — where gravel county roads and unexpected snowfall are part of daily life — having that extra traction confidence matters from October through April.
Up to 5,000-lb Towing
The Traverse is rated to tow up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped — enough to pull a fishing boat to the Missouri River, a camper up toward the Black Hills, or a utility trailer for farm and ranch errands around the region.
Standard Safety Technology
Every 2026 Traverse comes standard with Chevy Safety Assist — a suite that includes Automatic Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Alert, Adaptive Cruise Control, Blind Zone Steering Assist, and IntelliBeam automatic high beams. Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance is available on all trims and standard on High Country and RS.

Common Questions About the Chevrolet Traverse
How many passengers does the Chevrolet Traverse seat?
The Traverse seats up to eight passengers across three rows. The standard configuration with captain's chairs seats seven; an available second-row bench seat expands capacity to eight. The third row includes a center headrest and is designed for genuine use — not just occasional overflow seating.
Does the Chevrolet Traverse come with all-wheel drive?
AWD availability depends on the trim. The Z71 comes standard with all-wheel drive. The LT, RS, and High Country are offered in both FWD and AWD configurations — AWD is an available upgrade on those trims. For South Dakota winters, AWD is worth considering on any trim you're evaluating.
What is the towing capacity of the Chevrolet Traverse?
The 2026 Traverse is rated to tow up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped with the trailering package. That covers most boats, utility trailers, and smaller campers. Confirm the specific rating for your chosen configuration on the window sticker, as towing capacity can vary by drivetrain and equipment level.
What safety features come standard on the Traverse?
Every 2026 Traverse comes standard with Chevy Safety Assist, which includes Automatic Emergency Braking (front and rear), Forward Collision Alert, Adaptive Cruise Control, Blind Zone Steering Assist, Side Bicyclist Alert, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, IntelliBeam automatic high beams, and a Following Distance Indicator. The Safety Alert Seat and Teen Driver features are also standard across all trims.
Which Traverse trims include Super Cruise?
Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance is standard on the RS and High Country trims as part of the Enhanced Driving Package, which also includes Driver Attention Assist and Bose premium audio. It is available as an upgrade on LT and Z71 trims when paired with the Enhanced Driving Package. Super Cruise requires the Driver Confidence Package first on LT and Z71.
What's new on the 2026 Chevrolet Traverse?
The 2026 Traverse adds a new Key Card — a credit card-sized key option included in the Driver Confidence Package — along with two new exterior color options, Polar White Tricoat and Sandstone Gray. The Driver Confidence Package on LT now also includes the Rear Camera Mirror, and all trims receive updated airbag coverage with additional side-impact protection. The core powertrain, platform, and feature structure carries over from the redesigned 2024 generation.
