I dislike most chevy products but this suv actually looks good.
Lies again? Big Ass Car USD SGD
I’m so glad I got a ‘23 Traverse RS with the 3.6L V6. I luv it.
Dis they work out the kinks in them 3.6's?
Always nervous about a boosted 4 in place of a relaxed 6 or 8 for long term durability
To be fair, the six they used for the last 10 or so years was plenty high strung
Just don't plan to own any of these high-output turbo 4s beyond 100K miles, from any manufacturer.
The 2.5 is based on the 2.7 which has been very reliable
If you check out r/mechanic advice, you will hear what people think about GM boosted 4s lol
@JohnEvans-ct6mz those engines haven't been used in the Traverse since 2016 The LFX version had no such issues so get your facts straight.
I had a 2014 Impala with 275 000 miles on it and it's still ran great. Started rotting out.
Twenty five years ago I tried to stay far away from in-line -4 engines instead of V8s due to less stress but nowadays these boosted highly complicated hybrids make me very nervous 😬. Of course the exorbitant price also keeps me far away as well 😆
Traverse have rare engine problems but transmission issues is another story
Nothing compared to Mopar and their 62te transmission. Guaranteed to fail.
Yes, but I have a feeling that's all about to change with the turbo 4.
GM cars are all designed to self destruct after 100k miles
@@toronado455 Chevy 2.5 l turbo is not a new engine. The Chevy Colorado had that engine since 2016 and never had any problems actually pretty reliable. But GM make trash transmission
Everyone complaining about canning the V6, but all I remember is the V6 in the older ones having timing chain and cam issues at around 60K miles, am I wrong?
I hope I see these near Toronto Ontario
Will the new Traverse also get the Trail Boss, High Country, and ZR2 Bison trims as well? The RS trim may be renamed as the Traverse RST.
Chevrolet still needs a body-on-frame SUV to challenge the Toyota 4Runner and Jeep Grand Cherokee. There are still people who want to off-road but can't afford a Tahoe or Suburban.
The Grand Cherokee is unibody
@@jacobyo99 I know that. It still is more off-road capable than any crossover. That makes it more of a 4Runner challenger than a Traverse challenger.
Just buy the 4Runner and call it a day.
Do people really pay $50-60,000 for off road capable vehicles then take them out and beat the crap out of them on brushy, muddy, rocky trails? That always seemed so insane to me.
@@Policearegood-mt6kx It is insane. Most people don't need to pay that much for off-road capability. That's why I have always wanted car companies to provide more subcompact, compact, and midsize SUVs with real off-road capability. We need vehicles like the current Suzuki Jimny and Ford Everest here in America.
I wish they made a smaller two row version! The Equinox engine won’t cut it.
Wonder what Scotty thinks of this new car
Gm is complete crap you don’t wanna buy that money pit.. 🐴 ha ha ha..
He's got his head so far up Toyotas tailpipe he hasn't seen it yet.
@@elcheapo5302 What a safe and comfortable place to be
Trust in Scotty.
I wonder when the black line on the "c" pillar fad pass.
Finally looks like something id buy
$60,000 for a 4cyl? You're part of the problem.
@@user-sk1eh3pg6j it's what the world is coming to. Ferrari $400,000 6 cylinder Ford $500,000 6 cylinder, Mercedes $100,000 4 cylinder. 🤷🏾♂️ Honda $50,000 4 cylinder
@@steelervette My point went right over your head. Just because they sell it, you don't have to buy it. You let them control you. That's why I said you're part of the problem. You're paying more for less. They charge more for less cylinders and no spare tire and you asinine crash test specimens just fork over the money.
Big and powerful, but no hybrid option.
gm is skipping the hybrids and going straight to ev's
it's terrible. I would much rather have N/A hybrid than turbo.
@@bradfordjhart except they aren't. this is plain old gas powered, and they just came out with a diesel Escalade.
Any chance we will see a 10 minute review on this vehicle or do I refer to TFL guys to get in depth review.
Price goes up engins get smaller hmm sounds bass akwards to me
more profits for the corporation
a wheezy engine, a ridiculous price, cause there isnt any way that high trim level is $39k, and the looks every other SUV on the road.....ill keep my CTS
It's called shrinkflation
$39,000 starting price that’s crazy.
Thank emission regulations and a devalued dollar for that.
I miss when Motorweek would post all the trim level pricing, not just the base.
They do that when they conduct a full test. This is just a first drive.
None of the models even offer fog lights?
39k meaning 50k
this model is actually close to 60,000...for a chevy
Just a couple of years and it will be in the junkyard with the rest of them.
It's a beautiful truck but that turbo 4 is no go for me; GM’s 3.6 v6 had major timing chain issues. I'll roll the dice with a Toyota before I jump into this.
Good for only 100 thousand miles and then just junk it!
👏👏
If you wanna keep your car for long term stick with Toyota otherwise lease European or Detroit up to warranty period
So big "truck" small turbo 4. a CUV that wants to be an SUV in looks and feel and gets one to two better in the epa range....feels like 1992 again only with touch screens and blown up turbo 4s....
So we have gone full circle back to the naughties rugged style gm suvs ...Trailblazer envoy etc......
A Z71 Traverse? Geez.
2.4 liter engine only....not sure if this will work for me. I do like the design though.
Correction 2.5 turbo!
The 2.5 is based on the 2.7 which has been very reliable
Understood 2.5 turbo. Still, it's a 4 cylinder engine. Which for a suv family hauler that's not going to do well in the long run.
Love Motorweek, but this is nothing but junk! Junk! Junk! Just another of the many crappy mid sized SUV’s from GM.
Sorry for the little turbo fantasy!!! In the future, it will have the same problem as the Tundra. A lot of demand for power for these small engines, creating a crisis to sell us electric cars, or rather cars for fifteen minute cities. God Bless old fashion America
if i can drive a Prius to your 'cabin in the woods' you don't need 4wd and 18" of ground clearance, that's just to compensate for your manhood
Absolutely. It's a bro-dozer for guys whose wives won't let them have a jacked up cartoon truck.
What has happened to my show now all the motors are weak
The last GM car I had was a disaster, breaks failed, ignition lock recall, headlight relay failed, the transmission gernaded hundreds of miles from home, the car over heated in a tunnel in rush hour traffic, the water pump failed again because of a crappy plastic elbow, it had high oil consumption and the onstar uniit tracked my location. The car nearly killed me several times, I am done the GM forever.
The floating roof with illusionary voids in the pillars is played out.
These things are absolute garbage mechanically. They are basically engineered to make it through a lease term and then fall apart.
It looks fantastic, but I steer clear of 4 cyl engines in vehicles half this size. I'd be interested in seeing how it drove, but I'm skeptical. Sure looks good tho lol
Sorry, I don’t trust a small-displacement, high-horsepower engine from GM. Also, I haven’t seen GM build a quality interior in years. Even Denalis and Cadillacs are filled with cheap plastic and garbage switchgear.
Lol.. have you seen the interior of BMW & Mercedes the last few yrs? Lots of squeaks & creaks in the hvac buttons and controls!
@@bill4632 yes, they are. I never said otherwise, I wouldn’t buy one of those either. But GM is building the single worst interiors on the market. Even Hyundai and Kia has better interiors than GM
@@ScottieRCi agree with Hyundai and Kia interiors they are 🔥. The Mercedes AMGs interiors are built pretty well, but your paying 20-30grand more
That 4 cylinder isn't smooth at all. They should take some notes from Audi for NVH.
Is this a GM ad?
4 CYLINDER....NO THANKS
first
Would not take one even if it was free.
A turbo four, great. Just ask Ford how that worked out for them after ditching V6 and V8 engines for the "wonderful" eco-boost crap.
Thanks to emissions regulations, this will be the norm for every car from now on.
@@mbox314BMW still makes the best power plant. The B58 straight 6 along with the best transmission ZF8 speed in the business. They deal with emissions, yet produce 400hp very reliable and 30mpg ins performance drivetrain.
Sad American companies and do this. Mainly because they don’t want to spend money. Anything America builds is budget quality with a high price tag to consumers.
This is why I’ve only been buying German for past 10 years. No issues.
Another GM product with a dinky little engine that will be very unreliable. No thanks
Chevrolet to slow and to expensive compared to dodge and Ford
Yeah but on the other hand you have Dodge and Ford.....
The interior is much better build quality here than the Ford trust me
Trash
This was useless. It told me nothing I couldn’t learn from a spec sheet. Are you sure you drove it?? Zero subjective measurement of ride, noise level, value, handling, etc. I love Motorweek but you missed the mark here.
Modern day cars are stupid. Who needs a 17 inch screen in a car?
A 4 cylinder Turbo, are you kidding me? I have a 2001 Sierra And yes, It has a 5.3 l naturally aspirated V8 Engine cranking, 285 horsepower and 325 foot-pounds of torque stock. Why
Are they putting turbos in everything and why Is General motors using such little engines In these big heavy vehicles???? General motors needs to implement the original engines back in these bahemas SUVS like the V6. And they need to bring back the V8 Engine. People don't want Turbo V6's. Especially me, your engine is not going to last, especially with a Turbo. I will never, ever purchase another general motor vehicle Unless it is 2006 or older.
5.3s for everyone!
Almost every automaker in the U.S. is doing this, cause of strict government fuel economy and emission regulations. They're trying to get rid of V8's and V6's in favor of 3- and 4-cylinder engines, some with turbos. I don't like it, but it is what it is.
Obama
My 2014 Fiat 500L has over 150K with turbo 4. And I do realize it is a small car. But if you take care of your vehicle, more than likely it will last and take care of you and your family.
@@Jazc-mp889Political bullshit. Telling businesses how run their business and giving them fines for not following their rules. Sounds like Red China 🇨🇳 🤔
Horrid build quality, half baked engineering design, under average reliability and abysmal resale value - typical GM or Cheevy
I'm sorry, General motors has been going down the toilet ever since 2008 and onward.
Is this a personal opinion, or true facts??
- I'm not a GM fan.. but they're everywhere.
I'm not buying that. For the first time in my life I'd actually consider buying one. Not this one, but a Corvette. Pretty much since the C6 (I actually had one) they've gotten more solid every generation.
@@WSKRBSCT I drove A C8 recently.... The idle is very lumpy ....like an old chevette with a misfire .... I'm not even joking Also anyone under 5 foot 10 don't even think about ever Trying to drive this car The seat adjust a maximum of one inch in either direction
Longer than that. GM kept millions of mechanics in business. Millions of homes were built, just from mechanics making money from working mainly on GM vehicles.
This is why the government loves them.
@@ryanb8736 Yeah well the government loves them I don't
4 cylinder never going to last. Major mechanical failure before 100k miles
Not true just don’t push em to hard and baby them they will be just fine. Well idk about gm though the whole car is crap. 🤣🤣 well i must admit this is a very nice looking piece of crap.. 💩
The 2.5 is based on the 2.7 which has been very reliable.
As if the 3.6 was any good 😂
The 3.6 didn't last lol 😂
Lol that’s any GM product
