What These 2026 Traverse Numbers Mean in Practice

On paper the Traverse reads like a big vehicle that drives like a smaller one. Its 204.5-inch length and 39-foot turning circle make it manageable in a Cherry Hill parking deck, while 98 cubic feet of cargo and a 5,000-pound tow rating cover a furniture run or a small trailer. The 22 mpg combined front-drive rating keeps fuel bills reasonable on the I-295 commute, and the 6.8 inches of ground clearance, 7.8 on the Z71, handle a snowy driveway without pretending to be a truck.
