2019 Chevrolet Traverse Performance and Engine

Under the hood sits Chevrolet's proven 3.6L DOHC V6, displacing 217 cubic inches and producing 310 horsepower in standard configuration. Paired with a smooth-shifting automatic transmission, this powertrain gives the Traverse confident merging and passing capability — something Detroit drivers know they need on I-75, I-96, and the Lodge Freeway. The V6 pulls this full-size crossover with composure whether you're loaded down with passengers and cargo or cruising solo.

The 3.6L V6 in the Traverse is also shared across several GM platforms, which means parts availability and service familiarity at shops throughout Wayne County are strong. Fuel economy is reasonable for a three-row SUV of this size, typically landing in the mid-to-high teens in city driving and low-to-mid twenties on the highway.

Chevrolet Traverse RS Features and Interior

The RS trim was introduced to give the Traverse a sportier personality without sacrificing any of the practicality that makes this SUV a perennial family favorite. Inside, buyers can expect elevated interior materials compared to base trims, along with available leather-appointed seating, a responsive infotainment display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, and a premium audio system.

The three-row layout accommodates up to eight passengers, and the second and third-row seat configurations offer flexible cargo management. Whether you're transporting a full crew or folding rows flat for a Home Depot run, the Traverse interior is built around real-life usability. The RS trim also typically includes enhanced driver-assistance features, rear camera, lane-keep assist, and forward collision warning — adding a meaningful safety layer for city and highway driving alike.

Chevrolet Traverse Reliability and Ownership

The second-generation Traverse, redesigned for the 2018 model year, addressed many of the concerns owners had with the first-generation model. The 3.6L V6 is a known quantity — GM has been refining this engine family for well over a decade, and with regular oil changes and maintenance, it's not unusual to see these motors push well past 200,000 miles.

Common ownership considerations at higher mileage include checking the condition of the transmission fluid, inspecting the timing chain system, and verifying the status of any outstanding recalls. The 2019 Traverse RS has generally received positive owner feedback for ride comfort, cargo room, and powertrain responsiveness. For used SUV shoppers in Detroit and Wayne County, this model year hits a sweet spot of modern features and post-redesign reliability improvements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 2019 Chevrolet Traverse RS a good buy?

Yes — the 2019 Traverse RS represents one of the better values in the used three-row SUV segment. The RS trim adds sporty styling and upgraded features over the base model while sharing the same reliable V6 powertrain. For buyers who need seating for seven or eight and want a capable, comfortable daily driver, this is a strong option.

How many miles is too many on a 2019 Chevrolet Traverse?

With proper maintenance history, the 2019 Traverse V6 is capable of reaching 200,000 miles or more. At 135,697 miles, this vehicle still has meaningful life left when maintained correctly. Always ask for service records and consider a pre-purchase inspection if you want added confidence.

What does the Traverse RS trim include?

The RS trim adds sport-appearance styling elements including a blacked-out grille and badge treatment, RS badging, and enhanced interior appointments. It typically builds on the LT trim's feature set, which includes the 8-inch infotainment display, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, rear vision camera, and available driver-assist safety technology.

What's the difference between the Traverse RS and LT?

The RS is primarily a sport appearance package built on the LT platform. The key differences are aesthetic — dark exterior trim, unique grille, sport badging — rather than mechanical. Both share the same V6 engine and transmission, but the RS offers a distinctly more aggressive look.
