“economy doesn’t come with any sacrifice of performance, the Traverse is powered by a direct injection, 3.6-liter V6 that produces 288 horsepower, and the standard six-speed automatic transmission provides quiet shifting and smooth acceleration while
contributing to outstanding highway fuel economy,”.

LS - Standard equipment on the LS includes 17-inch steel wheels, eight-passenger seating, split-folding second- and third-row bench seats, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, air-conditioning, full power accessories, OnStar and a six-speaker CD/MP3 player with an auxiliary audio jack and satellite radio. LT - The midrange LT trim level is actually two sub-trims. The 1LT package offers Toledo Chevrolet shoppers 18-inch alloy wheels, heated side view mirrors, an eight-way power driver seat, a trip computer, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and rear parking sensors.

The 2LT package has all the 1LT items, plus tri-zone automatic climate control, a 10-speaker Bose system with USB port, rear audio system controls, seven-passenger seating, featuring second-row captain's chairs, a power lift gate and a rearview camera integrated into the rearview mirror.

Many of the standard features on upper trim levels can be added to the lower ones via option packages. One popular feature from the add-ons list is a trailer-towing package. Properly equipped, the 2011 Chevrolet Traverse can tow up to 5,200 pounds.
Now in its third year of production, the full-sized Traverse SUV was introduced as a 2009 model and shares its major underpinnings with corporate siblings Buick Enclave, GMC Acadia and the now defunct Saturn Outlook. And that's a good thing.
