GM Authority has exclusively learned when production of the 2024 Chevy Traverse will begin.
According to sources familiar with the matter, the start of regular production (SORP) for the 2024 Chevy Traverse is set to kick off in December of the 2023 calendar year. It’s possible that this late production start date indicates that the 2024 Chevy Traverse will introduce the new generation for the full-size crossover nameplate.
This would certainly coincide with recent comments made by GM President Mark Reuss. As GM Authority covered previously, Reuss has confirmed that The General is indeed working on the next-gen Chevy Traverse crossover, per statements made during a presentation given at the recent GM Investor Day event.
“A nice enhancement for this, obviously a very popular three-row vehicle, high-volume, right in the heart of the market, right below the Tahoe in terms of size, but very much more trucklike as we introduce the refresh of that,” Reuss said during his presentation, referencing the Chevy Traverse crossover.
Although specific details on the next-gen Chevy Traverse are still forthcoming, the full-size crossover is expected to ride on the GM C1 platform. As a reminder, the current 2023 Chevy Traverse is motivated by the naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 LFY gasoline engine, which is rated at 310 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque and connects to the GM 9-Speed automatic transmission. Production currently takes place at the GM Lansing Delta Township plant in Michigan.
Per previous GM Authority coverage, the next-generation Chevy Traverse will be the first of three next-gen, full-size crossovers out the gates, with the next-gen GMC Acadia set to launch after the next-gen Traverse, and the next-gen Buick Enclave set to launch after the next-gen Acadia. All three models will be produced at the GM Lansing Delta Township plant, as production of the GMC Acadia will be moved from the GM Spring Hill plant in Tennessee to the Lansing Delta Township facility.

Will there be a significant fuel mileage increase? The knock against GM is over the last 10 years, GM stops improving the MPG rating on its ICE autos. I am a GM owner and fan, but I see Toyota keeps improving its MPG rating on its ICE autos. My 8-year-old GM vehicle gets the same MPG rating as the new one and they look just alike. Thumb up or thumb down, its the truth, and I like GM.
Is the hybrid variant or plug in a real possibility? Other mfg are offering

TRUCKLIKE???…Should Red Flags Be Hoisted Or Smiles Forthcoming?
I think with the last MCE they tried to make it look more like a RWD SUV and I’d bet the redesign will take it further.

I agree with those that consider this “Next Generation” little more than a “Minor Refresh”. I have a 2019 Traverse High Country and an “uneducated” person would have a hard time distinguishing any real difference from my ‘19 to this “Next Generation”.
How do you know?
The public has not seen the 2024 Traverse. Yes the 22MY minor refresh.
Super simple to tell the 19 apart from the minor refresh front grill has a slight difference fog lights under cover now new headlights and tail lights more differences than many think
Will drive my 2022 Enclave for 10 years. Then will decide on gas mileage for the future. My green Enclave is beautiful. 17 city 30 highway.
Hi My car is a 2014 Chevy Traverse. I think it has a manufacturing error in the electrical system. Every time the weather indicators go out, the engine is excellent. The comfort is excellent.
Loved my 2018 got crazy good fuel mileage much better than a good friends Lexus RX350 or his Toyota 4 Runner when driving the same speed and distance on the hi way, I just replaced my 18 with a 23 and awaiting the new Traverse EV announcement for MY 2025 so we hear lefts hope it comes sooner rather than later, We love our current Chevy Volt gas electric hybrid and drive it 99% of the time on electric power
