Its masculine image may be more appealing than a minivan, but the Traverse’s interior is almost as spacious. A nine-speed automatic and front-wheel drive mate with either a 2.0-liter inline-four or a 3.6-liter V-6; the V-6 has optional all-wheel drive. A 7.0-inch infotainment display is standard, and an 8.0-inch unit is optional; both come with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Automated emergency braking is available, as are conveniences such as adaptive cruise control and automatic high-beams.
