2025 Chevy Traverse High Country: The Finer Things in Life, Dipped in Four Wheels

2024 Chevy Traverse

Getting the family around in style is always a hot topic here during back-to-school season at the Mid-Missouri Powerhouse! We have many various models that are all up to the task, with each one offering their own unique sense of style. The 2025 Chevy Traverse is creating quite a buzz with its third-generation debut, boasting a few notable updates for the second model year. The High Country trim is now going to make a reintroduction, poised to impress and provide ultimate comfort.

The Traverse exists directly below the very sporty RS trim and offers the segment-leading essence of luxury feel. As buyers look to meet their on-the-road demands in style this fall, they’ll immediately notice that all the stops have been pulled out to make this truly special. The High Country starts things off with the same steering wheel found on the Z71 and LT. You’ll enjoy numerous memorable views courtesy of the power panoramic sunroof. This allows for the coming season’s brilliance to shine ideally through!

The High Country is equipped with everything to make it glossy even down to the door handles. The exclusive body-color ones included now sport a defining new chrome strip. The High Country rolls proudly on segment-exclusive 22-inch aluminum wheels while still using the same all-season tires as the RS. You have your choice of two exclusive interior colorways, Jet Black with Bronze accents and Jet Black with Sky Cool Gray. The High Country’s leather-appointed seats won’t fail to impress. 

The element eagerly supplying the power is the 2.5-liter I-4 LKO gas engine, which rides on the GM C1-2 platform. Production is being handled by the determined employees of the Lansing Delta Township plant in Michigan. The Motor Trend crew was happy during their review to proclaim that “Three-row SUVs don’t have to be blobby lifted minivans!” They also praised the 2025 model for its modernized turbocharged engine and well-updated infotainment suite.

We are confident that the Traverse will fare amazingly well when held up to its rivals, which include the Subaru Ascent, Honda Pilot, and Kia Telluride. This testing crew enjoyed the larger displays and heavily updated array of active safety technology. This model still hasn’t introduced a plug-in or hybrid, and all of us at the Powerhouse think that’s ok! While the future is hurtling towards us with its promise of efficiency and resourcefulness, many elements from the present are still performing above par.

The maximum trailer rating is 5,000 lbs, and the Z71 model is the one that delivers conquering off-road capability. The Traverse should continue to be equipped with the Chevy Safety Assist features which include forward collision alert, following distance indicator, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, high-beam assist, and front braking for pedestrians and cyclists. Cargo capacity is anticipated to reside at around 97.6 cubic feet with the second and third rows slipped down.

Each 2025 Chevy Traverse will come standard with a 17.7-inch touchscreen display and an 11-inch digital instrument cluster. The experts at Autoblog were excited about the Traverse’s brand-new looks, which are now more aligned with the body-on-frame persona. Passengers will also love the dual screens on the dash that are the anchor for a very tech-rich focal base. To improve fuel economy, the new engine employs an “ePhaser” that periodically adjusts the camshaft to advance and delay the spark accordingly.
