When you need an SUV with space for your growing family, a large three-row crossover like the 2015 Chevrolet Traverse is a smart pick. This crossover is offered with standard three-row seating for up to eight passengers, though second-row captain's chairs on some models reduce capacity to seven. Under the hood, the 2015 Traverse is powered by a brawny 3.6L V6—and for times when the road gets rough, all-wheel drive is optional on all but the base trim.
Meanwhile, the cabin on the 2015 Traverse is spacious and plush, offering plenty of room for everybody to stretch out and get comfortable without sacrificing cargo space. Of course, when additional storage space is needed for the occasional hauling of small furniture or other gear, the second and third rows can be easily folded to offer a full 116.3 cubic feet. With its well-appointed and expansive cabin, this large crossover SUV is a great option for toting around your whole crew comfortably.

The 2015 Chevrolet Traverse is part of this crossover's first generation of production (2009-2017); this model launched amid demand for larger crossover options—particularly those with standard three-row seating. For the 2015 model year specifically, the Traverse saw the addition of available Siri Eyes Free technology for sending text messages, making phone calls, and playing music without taking eyes off the road.3
Chevrolet Traverse Engine Options
The first-generation Traverse comes standard with a 3.6L V6 engine at 281 hp on the LS and LT trims. For the LTZ and Premier times, hp output increases to 288 hp thanks to a dual exhaust. A six-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive are also standard, though all-wheel drive is optional on all but the base LS trim if you want additional traction in adverse road conditions.
Chevrolet Traverse Storage Space
A three-row crossover is a great choice if you need a lot of cargo storage, especially since the second and third rows can be folded down when needed to create additional storage. On the first-generation Traverse, you'll find 24.4 cubic feet of cargo space behind the third row. By folding down those seats, space is expanded to 70.3 cubic feet. This maxes out at 116.3 cubic feet with both rows folded, providing ample space for hauling larger gear as needed.
