General Motors introduced a refresh for the full-size Chevy Traverse crossover in conjunction with the launch of the 2022 model year. Among the updates was new exterior styling and lighting bits, all of which was carried over for the 2023 model year as well. Now, GM Authority is taking a closer look at the lighting on the 2022 and 2023 Chevy Traverse in the following exclusive video.
Hosted by GM Authority Executive Editor Alex Luft, the video is a little over five minutes long, and covers all the big ticket items with regard to lighting on the 2022 and 2023 Chevy Traverse.
First and foremost, the 2022 and 2023 Chevy Traverse feature a dual-tiered lighting setup that places the daytime running lights high in the corners of the fascia, while the primary forward-facing lights are mounted lower in the bumper. It’s a similar setup seen elsewhere in the Chevy lineup, including models like the refreshed 2023 Chevy Blazer and refreshed 2024 Chevy Trailblazer, and it will be continued with the refreshed 2024 Chevy Tahoe and refreshed 2024 Chevy Suburban as well, per a GM Authority exclusive.
Notably, the top-mounted daytime running lights on the 2022 and 2023 Chevy Traverse serve double duty as turn signals as well, glowing orange when indicating. The sideview mirrors are also equipped with turn indicators.
In the rear, we find a pair of wraparound taillights that incorporate a two-tiered inner graphic. The housing wraps from the rear quarter panel into the rear hatch, creating a nice cohesive look with the front end. The rear turn signals are provided by a thin lighting element that’s located between the two inner graphics. The brakes also illuminate the same thin lighting element. Higher on the hatch, we find the Center High-Mounted Stop Lamp, of CHMSL, which includes LEDs integrated with the outer edge of the roof spoiler.
Indeed, there are several interesting details to pick through when it comes to lighting details for the 2022 and 2023 Chevy Traverse, so hit play to see them for yourself.
As a reminder, the 2022 and 2023 Chevy Traverse both feature naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 LFY gasoline engine as the only powertrain offered. The GM C1 platform provides the underpinnings, while production takes place at the GM Lansing Delta Township plant in Michigan. Looking ahead, the 2024 model year will usher in an all-new generation for the Chevy Traverse.

The Traverse doesn’t get much attention, but I think it looks pretty nice. Clean and chiseled. I find the Telluride to look lumpy and cartoonish in comparison. If only they did as well on the interior, which while functional and intuitive, looks about 8 years out of date.
I like the headlights being down low. That allows them to be brighter without blinding oncoming drivers. My F-150 is the opposite, terribly dim headlights that also blind oncoming drivers because they are so poorly designed.
Wish they at least had a mounting section for fog lights. Installing those is going to take some creativity. Maybe they’ll design something for the Z71 I can use.
Also wish they included Under Hood light as well as under dash lights.
The interior lighting is just embarrassing. Not only does it not provide light for any purpose, if you drop something in the floor expect to wait for morning to look for it. Hopefully it’s not something you’ll need at night like a vampire stake.
