2009 Chevy Traverse Unveiled

In the first Press Conference of the 2008 Chicago Auto Show, Chevy showed us a new crossover they call the Traverse. Presented as a family vehicle, the Traverse will have a Direct-Injection 286 horsepower 3.6L V6 engine that will get the power of a V8 but with excellent fuel economy.

The 2009 Traverse will be offered in LS, LT, and LTZ trims and have both Front wheel drive and all-wheel drive layouts. At first look at the car, the trunk seemed to be seriously lacking in space unless the rear seats are down, which defeats the purpose of having a family car if you can’t bring your family and your luggage.

Regardless, Chevy might have a great opportunity on its hands with the Traverse, and it’s actually very attractive. Stay tuned for more info…
