Innovation Becomes Apparent with Chevy’s 2009 Traverse Crossover SUV

2009 Chevrolet Traverse LTZ

The release of the newest member of Chevrolet’s Crossover/SUV family is quickly approaching. The 2009 Traverse, a 7- or 8-passenger crossover vehicle, will become available this fall. This practical and flashy SUV is going to open a lot of eyes when it graces us with it’s presence at Runde Chevrolet near Dubuque.

The Traverse has 4 available trim levels, similar to the other Chevrolet models. The LS has the essentials, but cuts costs by leaving off all the extra ‘bells and whistles’ offered for the vehicle. Next come the 1LT and 2LT, offering a few more options than the LS, and last is the LTZ, the ‘Top Dawg’ offering all of the extra options you could think of. The Traverse offers fantastic fuel-efficiency, getting 24 Miles Per Gallon in the Front Wheel Drive version on the highway. The All Wheel Drive version averages an impressive 23 MPG on the open road. The 7-passenger package offers 1st row bucket seats, 2nd row captain seats, and a 3rd row bench seat. In the 8-passenger package, you will find a 2nd row bench seat instead of the captain seats. When you fold the 2nd and 3rd row seats down, the Traverse provides approximately 117.9 cubic feet of cargo space.

It also comes with Chevrolet’s 100,000 mile/5 year transferable Powertrain Warranty and 100,000 mile/5 year Roadside Assistance.
