2018 Chevrolet Traverse Exterior

Sculpted as a full-size SUV, the 2018 Chevrolet Traverse takes a lot of inspiration from its smaller siblings. Its contoured edges and sloped roof slim down the three-row SUV. To help with maneuverability, the 2018 Traverse comes with several visibility features, including heated, power-adjustable, and manual-folding outside mirrors with available auto-dimming technology on the driver’s side. The SUV also comes with LED Daytime Running Lamps and High-Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps for optimum visibility at any time, day or night.
