2014 | 4dr SUV 281-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
The second row captain's chairs are roomy and comfortable. The third row bench seat has a surprising amount of space, in particular with the 2nd row seats slid forward some. see full Chevrolet Traverse review |

The seats we have on our LT are fine but the headrest on both cars I've had jut out too far and cannot be adjusted back far enough to be comfortable. This is particularly uncomfortable on longer trips. see full Chevrolet Traverse review |
