I’m back with a full report on my experience, which shows that being green doesn’t have to be boring.

Seemingly everyone wants an SUV these days, and on the domestic front in that battle, there are a few key players leading the charge.

One of those options is the Chevy Traverse, which receives minimal updates for 2021 and is still holding on to the latest full redesign that took place in 2018.

For families, it’s all about space, and that’s one thing the Traverse can claim in spades. With comfortable seating for up to 8 offered and plenty of cargo room, it’s vying for families who seek versatility and space over flash and extreme power.

Additional Info

  • Vehicle 2021 Chevy Traverse  
  • Price as tested $51,030   
  • Best feature Roomy and versatile, technology   
  • Rating 4 out of five stars  
  • Who will want this vehicle? Families seeking a larger, tech-savvy, domestic SUV offering
