As GM Authority has been covering for quite some time now, the next-gen 2024 Chevy Traverse is set to launch in the U.S. by the end of the 2023 calendar year. Now, General Motors has finally given an official reveal date for the Bow Tie brand’s full-size crossover.
In a series of posts to social media, The General has announced that something new will officially debut on July 17th, 2023, which likely the 2024 Chevy Traverse. Interestingly, the three teaser Instagram reels that GM posted spell out TTO, which could mean Time To Own.
As a reminder, the next-gen Traverse is expected to be thoroughly overhauled as compared to the preceding generation. Starting with the model lineup, GM Authority was the first to report that an off-road-focused Z71 variant will be introduced, while the High Country trim will be no longer available. One of the teaser images shows the vehicle wearing Goodyear Wrangler tires, hinting at the upcoming Traverse Z71.
On the outside, the 2024 Traverse is expected to boast a fresh exterior design that will feature dual-tier headlights, along with forward-leaning C-pillars, large-diameter wheels, and quad exhaust tips.
In regard to the interior, the entire cabin will be overhauled with increased space and better ergonomics. New colorways and materials will be on offer, as well as a new steering wheel. A new infotainment setup will be introduced, along with a suite of new safety features, plus GM Super Cruise.
Under the hood, the 2024 Chevy Traverse will be powered by the turbocharged 2.5L I4 LK0 gasoline engine, with an output expected to be roughly 300 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque. Output will be routed to the ground via the GM nine-speed automatic transmission, while FWD will be standard and AWD will be optional.
As for structure, the all-new Traverse will ride on an updated version of the long-wheelbase variant of the GM C1 platform. In addition, the next-gen crossover will also feature the Global B digital architecture. Production will take place at the GM Lansing Delta Township plant in Michigan in late December 2023.

About time. Folks are wondering about the Trav, Acadia and Enclave all over the Net.
The next-gen Enclave | Traverse | Acadia needs to be a significant step up. The Hyundai | Kia options are very compelling.
I agree but they were competitive when they were released. Really all the Traverse needed was an all new interior.
Agreed. The space(nearly 100cu.ft of cargo volume) is unsurpassed. While I’ll miss the smoothness of the LFX 3.6, the torque rich 2.5 will give the GM triplets better bottom end power.
I’m hoping for the V6 as an option but from the articles I’m seeing it appears that may not be an option—darn!
I’m honestly kinda shocked they don’t put that 2.7 turbo in there. Seems to work pretty good in the Colorado.
Works great, but the transmission is a transverse transmission and cant handle the full 430ftlbs of torque. The 2.5 will likely be a modified 2.7 in an effort to keep from ripping the transmissions guts out.
I have ordered two traverses , a 2018 and 2022 I like the v6,not a fan of turbo engines, that will make me change my next order!
i’m surprised with those offroad tires. they actually look like they can go offroad. looking forward to it.
A lifted Traverse is going to be hilarious but pretty cool. Ford has no issue selling the Explorer Timberline.
I drove my 2018 around the farm and it does pretty well. The AWD is really responsive. Drive almost like a side by side.
These are filling the need of many prior suburban owners before the suburban started replacing luxury imports.
Time to Off-road most likely with those all terrain tires
“Traverse The Outdoors” would be my guess
Are they going to give it a 5 year/100,000 mile warranty like the 2.7L just got in the Silverado?
Up-rating the 9T65 for this application doesn’t inspire a lot of confidence… I hope they came up with a new torque converter solution as well.
Still not buying it regardless, unless in turn for downsizing the displacement they are going to increase the payload and GCVWR. But even if GM somehow get that right, they’ll probably just use a 3,500 lb rear axle and render the whole exercise moot anyway.
They better have fixed the torque converter issue or it’s a hard no.
The LFX in our Blazer has been great with plenty of power, good fuel economy and reliability. It seems every year this choice with GM products is becoming less available.
How about a hybrid and 30mpg???
I’ve had a 2013 GMC Acadia and now a 2018 Enclave. I’m looking hard at the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander. Similar size (which is why I’ve always gone GM in the class) but now with Hybrid options for way etter mileage
You would be thourghly disappointed. I drove one for work. Its nowhere near as responsive, handles poorly and isnt as intuitive.
Also, it is way down on power. Its not in the same engine class as the chevy. If chevy dropped in the 2.5L 4 banger they would match the fuel milage yet be exceptionally cheaper
Chevy owners dont buy hybrids. GM has tried that dozens of times and it never worked. Unlike toyota drivers, most american brand shopper’s actual do the math and know when is the tipping point between purchase price and fuel economy. Its rarely worth it and if you live in a rural community its never worth it.
I do worry about the 2.5 turbomax reaching the economy numbers of the 3.6V6. The 2.7 is struggling to match the decade old engines its supposed to replace.
You are correct that Hybrids cost more, but you have it reversed, for a rural driver who is going further distance and not stop and go traffic the payoff is greater. New hybrids don’t use the regenerative breaking of old.
at $3.50/g an ICE is about $.20/mile while a Hybrid is $.08/mile . Also being that GM is moving to electric I think today’s buyer would appreciate the option.
WTF are you talking about? The point of a hybrid is regenerative braking. If i drive only highway i might as well drive a corolla as it gers 45 highway, and i wont care it gets worse city than a prius hybrid as it also gets mid 40’s on the interstate and costs 2X as much.
Another example, the ford F150 hybrid gets identical mileage on the interstate as none hybrids and its main advantage is in city MPG. Its also an extra 5000$. Thats money you will never get back if you live in a rural community.
Im trying to wrap my head around how you got to hybrids saving on interstate travel. Are you comparing SUV’s to the prius? Theres a hige size difference there. Ford maverick ecoboost to maverick hybrid? The ecoboost is the preium powerplant and makes more power for a reason there.
@Steven,
So much needs to be addressed about your incorrect information.
First, the F150 hybrid isn’t a 5k option. It is 4500 over the base engine and only 1700 more than the 3.5 ecoboost. If someone is shopping power trains it would be between the 5.0, 3.5 and hybrid, and in that instance is only 1700-2000 more than the other two and will more than make up for the mpg even in mostly highway driving situations (lets say 75% hwy). Second, the mpg on the hybrid is higher than the gas on the highway as well, 26 vs 24, then you throw in the city that is way higher even only 25% of the time and that savings starts adding up. Hybrid systems also help at highway speeds in certain instances (up hills and accelerating), the Venza we rented could run in EV mode on the highway when it was flat and not doing higher speeds (if we kept it around 60 or so).
The Hybrid option at Toyota is only like 1500 or so difference in price and the mpg difference is pretty big, you easily make up that cost savings in a few years (about 3 years to get that savings based on average drivers, could be more or less depending on the situation). It also does a few mpg better on the highway than the gasser and a ton better in city.
You also mention price and the Prius versus Carolla. Well a Prius starts 6k more than the Carolla (not even close to twice as much) but gets 56 mpg on the highway and 57 city where as the Carolla gets 41 on the highway and 35 city. Much bigger difference, still take a few more years to recoup the difference but you save much more each year. Here is the kicker, you can add a hybrid setup to the Carolla for only 1300 and bumps you up to 53 city and 46 highway (another 5 mpg added to the highway with a hybrid, doesn’t sound like your points are holding any water here).
Hybrid is a cheap option, not to mention the betterer option versus full EV for cutting emissions. Read a good article recently that stated (this is from memory so this is ball park) using one battery from a full EV truck can be used in something like 100 give or take regular hybrid vehicles and the emissions savings for doing that versus the one EV truck was huge in terms of cutting emissions significantly from 100 vehicles rather than all from just 1 vehicle.
I am a big fan of hybrid, I would like my next truck to go that route as well, but GM doesn’t offer that. So in short, no, a hybrid isn’t a worse choice, its doesn’t get the same highway mpg as the gas counterpart (it gets better actually), it doesn’t cost a ton more than a SIMILAR option. Not sure I can explain how you are more wrong but that is enough for now. Tons of examples out there with vehicles have a gas and hybrid option in the same vehicle to use as a comparison. Try reading up on that next time instead of just spouting incorrect information…
Im assuming your comparing a prius to a silverado because .2 and .08 $/mile equals 45 and 17mpg respectively. Im comparing the exact same vehicle hybrid vs none.
What he’s saying is that a hybrid isn’t as practical as a farmer as it is for a big city guy. I grow soybeans in Kearney and most of my stop and go is on a tractor or side by side. I only use my truck to get from point a to point b and to haul a load. All 45 mph and up.
Other than he said the exact opposite.
Are we going to get front pedestrian braking on the 2024 my 2023 does not have it and need to up grade the air conditioner also put an assist handle along side the windows not the retractable handle on the passenger side that is very hard to find and it is useless and your hands free liftgate is very hard to navigate does not work most times my 2020 Chrysler had all these options and i paid $20,000 more and got less
Unhappy, move on!
The 2.7 is paired with the 8 speed auto in trucks. 2.5 is for the fwd 9 speed.
We will see very soon but I would like to see a V6 Turbo
Where is it? I’m in California and can’t find one anywhere. It’s almost October.
