📖Chevrolet Traverse III: high-output 2.5 turbo power and rugged Z71 off-road capability

Chevrolet Traverse III (2024-Présent)

Completely redesigned for the 2024 model year, the third-generation Traverse adopted a rugged, squared-off profile that casts aside people-carrier styling cues in favour of an assertive SUV presence. It features a high-tech cabin dominated by a massive 17.7-inch infotainment screen, along with an adventurous Z71 trim featuring lifted suspension and skid plates to rival the Ford Explorer. Dedicated Chevrolet Traverse maintenance is vital to keep this technologically advanced, high-power platform operating at its peak.

The major revolution is under the bonnet: the long-serving V6 has been replaced by a potent 2.5-litre LK0 turbocharged engine generating 328 hp and 442 Nm of torque, paired with an eight-speed automatic gearbox. On Z71 models, an advanced twin-clutch all-wheel-drive system actively directs torque between the rear wheels. Performance is punchy and responsive, though managing high boost pressures and direct fuel injection requires uncompromising devotion to high-specification synthetic lubricants.

Owner notes

The reassuring points, known weak spots and deadlines you should not let slip.

Reassuring points

Reliability
  • Commanding SUV stance with exceptional passenger space and substantial towing capability up to 2,268 kg.
  • The 2.5-litre turbo engine delivers impressive low-end torque that comfortably outperforms the former V6.
  • Z71 trim brings genuine off-road hardware with twin-clutch all-wheel drive, terrain modes, and underbody armour.

Chronic weak spots

Keep an eye on
  • 2.5 turbo LK0: monitor boost pressure regularity, check intercooler pipework, and verify strict Dexos1 Gen 3 oil compliance.
  • 8-speed automatic gearbox: inspect low-speed shift smoothness and check for dealer software updates.
  • Z71 twin-clutch AWD: inspect rear drive unit seals and listen for clutch engagement binding when turning tightly.
  • 17.7-inch infotainment: test touchscreen responsiveness, Google built-in apps, and digital instrument cluster stability.
  • Cooling circuit: monitor engine temperature after towing heavy trailers and check auxiliary radiator condition.

Critical deadlines

Do not miss
  • Renew engine oil and filter every 8,000 to 10,000 km using Dexos1 Gen 3 synthetic oil to protect turbo bearings.
  • Service the 8-speed automatic gearbox and Z71 twin-clutch rear drive unit fluids at 60,000 km.
  • Have all digital modules, infotainment software, and ADAS calibrations updated by an authorised technician.
  • Inspect underbody skid plates, suspension wishbones, and all-terrain tyres after towing or off-road excursions.
