Traverse vs Tahoe: Three-Row Midsize or Full-Size?
The Chevy Traverse is a car-based, midsize three-row crossover and the Chevy Tahoe is a larger, truck-based full-size SUV, and the two do not share a platform, an engine or a price range. The Traverse uses a single 2.5L turbocharged engine rated at 328 horsepower, while the Tahoe offers a 5.3L V8, a 6.2L V8 or a Duramax 3.0L Turbo-Diesel. Maximum cargo volume is 98 cubic feet in the Traverse against 122.7 cubic feet in the Tahoe, and towing tops out at 5,000 lbs of standard capacity on the Traverse versus up to 8,400 lbs on a properly equipped Tahoe. Ross Downing stocks both, so you can compare them side by side in Hammond. The most common questions we get are Traverse vs Tahoe size, Tahoe vs Traverse cargo space and the difference between Traverse and Tahoe: the Traverse carries up to 98 cubic feet of cargo with a 2.5L Turbo, the Tahoe up to 122.7 cubic feet with a V8 or Duramax diesel, and the Tahoe tows more. Chevy Traverse cargo space and Chevy Traverse trunk space questions are answered by that 98-cubic-foot figure, Chevrolet's best-in-class claim for the segment.
Choose the Traverse if you
- Want car-like handling and easier daily parking than a full-size SUV
- Seat up to 8 with Smart Slide Seats for easier third-row access
- Want the widest choice: 32 new Traverse SUVs are in stock in Hammond today
Choose the Tahoe if you
- Tow a boat or camper: the Tahoe is rated up to 8,400 lbs when properly equipped, versus 5,000 lbs on the Traverse
