The Long and the Tall of It: Chevy’s 2025 Traverse High Country Goes Supersized

2025 Chevy Traverse

At the Mid Missouri Powerhouse, we understand one ongoing truth: when you’ve got kids, there’s no such thing as “too much space.” Between strollers, folding cribs, and the occasional upright bass or goalie pads, life with kids means traveling with what feels like an entire mobile home. That’s exactly why the newly redesigned 2025 Chevrolet Traverse High Country hits home for growing families—it’s spacious, smartly equipped, and ready to handle just about anything your crew throws at it.

Engineered for Real Family Life

Families don’t travel light—and neither should your SUV. With every redesign, Chevy listens to what real parents need. For 2025, the Traverse grows taller, wider, and longer, maximizing every inch for passengers and cargo alike. It’s now closer than ever in size to its big sibling, the Tahoe—only without the extra bulk when it comes to maneuvering through parking lots or tight turns around town.

Under the hood, a turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine replaces the old V6. On paper, it’s more powerful, and it boosts efficiency slightly, too. In practice, it may not be the quickest off the line, but once you're up to speed, it cruises quietly and confidently—perfect for long drives and highway comfort.

Comfort Comes Standard

Inside the Traverse High Country, you’ll find an interior that caters to everyone—especially the driver. The 17.7-inch infotainment display stands front and center, offering Google integration and the ability to download apps like Spotify and Waze directly into the vehicle. Prefer your phone’s setup? Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ are still available, keeping you connected your way.

The cabin is packed with comforts: a heated, power-adjustable steering wheel, ventilated front seats, second-row captain’s chairs with heating, and a power-folding third-row—all designed to simplify your day-to-day routine. Even the little things—like physical knobs for climate control and an ultra-clear 10-speaker Bose® sound system—make life inside this SUV feel more manageable.

Super Cruise™ technology is also available, enabling hands-free driving on hundreds of thousands of miles of mapped highways. Translation: more time clapping to your toddler’s playlist, less time clenching the wheel on long road trips.

Room for Everyone—and Then Some

The Traverse shines where it matters most: space. Second-row passengers enjoy panoramic views and generous legroom, while access to the third row is seamless—even with a car seat installed. Adults can comfortably ride in the 3rd row thanks to smart seat height and ceiling clearance.

Even fully loaded with passengers, the Traverse provides a cavernous cargo area—plus an underfloor storage bin for stashing bags, gear, or snacks. Fold down the second and third rows and you'll have nearly 100 cubic feet of cargo capacity, rivaling some full-size SUVs and outperforming most competitors in the three-row segment.

On the Road: Smoother Than You’d Expect

While the Traverse may not leap off the line, it delivers a smooth, composed ride. The eight-speed automatic transmission shifts gracefully, and the ride quality remains impressive—even on 22-inch wheels. Its handling is surprisingly precise for a vehicle this size, making it feel secure and responsive whether you're cruising the interstate or navigating back roads.

Practical Luxury, Real-World Utility

Let’s be clear—this isn’t a luxury SUV in disguise. The interior materials lean more practical than plush, and some of the design choices prioritize function over form. But for most families, that’s exactly what’s needed. Durable surfaces, easy-to-clean materials, and a straightforward layout make everyday life easier. The available lighter interior tones do help brighten the mood inside, and they’re worth considering if you want a more inviting cabin feel.
