Powertrain Specifications and Engine Configuration
The 2025 Chevrolet Traverse is powered by a 2.5-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine equipped with variable valve timing and stop/start functionality. This engine produces 328 horsepower at 5500 RPM and delivers 326 lb-ft of torque at 3500 RPM.

High-pressure direct fuel injection and electronic throttle control are standard.
Fuel efficiency is measured at 20 miles per gallon in city driving and 27 miles per gallon on the highway for front-wheel drive models, providing a combined rating of 23 miles per gallon. All-wheel drive versions achieve 19 miles per gallon in the city and 24 miles per gallon on the highway, with a combined rating of 21. The front-wheel drive configuration holds a fuel tank capacity of 73.4 liters, or 19.4 gallons, while the all-wheel drive version holds 82.1 liters, or 21.7 gallons.
Transmission System and Drive Configuration
A standard 8-speed automatic transmission is paired with the turbocharged engine. The final drive ratio is set at 3.49:1, supporting both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive configurations. This setup offers reliable gear transition and optimized output across different terrains and operating conditions.
Suspension, Steering, and Handling Systems
The front suspension features a MacPherson® strut system, while the rear suspension adopts a five-link independent design. This combination supports balanced weight distribution and improved ride comfort. Electric variable-effort power steering contributes to responsive maneuverability, while the turning circle varies by tire size. Models equipped with 22-inch tires have a turning circle of 40.7 feet or 12.4 meters. Models with 18-inch or 20-inch tires achieve a reduced turning circle of 39.0 feet or 11.9 meters.

Curb weight is 2043 kilograms for front-wheel drive models and 2174 kilograms for all-wheel drive models. The weight distribution supports vehicle balance, acceleration performance, and braking efficiency. Cargo and load capacities are subject to distribution and weight management as outlined in the owner's manual.
