Chevy Traverse MPG Guide

2023 Chevy Traverse Beach View

When you bring a new Chevy Traverse home to Kernersville, there’s no sacrificing efficiency for interior space. The 2023 Chevy Traverse mpg can reach up to 18 mpg city/27 mpg highway with FWD, so you can spend more time exploring your neighborhood and less time fueling at the pump. Despite what you might assume given its competitive mpg ratings, the Chevy Traverse provides all the space and power you crave with three-row seating and a standard V6 engine. Are you curious about how the Traverse mpg measures up when you choose AWD instead of FWD? Terry Labonte Chevrolet has all the details you need in our ultimate guide to the Chevrolet Traverse mpg!


Chevrolet Traverse MPG: Should You Choose AWD or FWD?

We’re confident that the Traverse mpg will exceed your expectations no matter what, but you should still note the very minor difference based on your choice of FWD or AWD:

  • 2023 Chevy Traverse with FWD: EPA-estimated18 mpg city/27 mpg highway
  • 2023 Chevy Traverse with AWD: EPA-estimated 17 mpg city/25 mpg highway

Is one or two miles per gallon significant enough to sway your decision one way or the other? For most Winston Salem drivers, probably not. You should think about your driving habits as you choose between FWD or AWD — the latter is certainly nice to have when you’re driving on wet or unpaved roads, but if you mostly make short trips around town every day, you can probably manage very well with FWD!

A Closer Look at the V6 Engine in the Traverse

You’ll surely be impressed with the standard 3.6L V6 engine in this three-row family SUV, and not just because it’s tied to excellent Chevrolet Traverse mpg ratings! You can also anticipate lively performance on every journey, as well as significant towing power:

  • 3.6L V6 standard engine
  • Smooth-shifting 9-speed automatic transmission
  • Standard Automatic Start/Stop technology for increased efficiency
  • 310 hp
  • 266 lb-ft of torque
  • 5,000-pound maximum towing capacity

Performance Tech to Support the Traverse MPG

In addition to a robust engine, the Chevy Traverse is equipped with performance technology like Intelligent Start/Stop to make fuel conservation effortless:

  • Intelligent Start/Stop technology helps conserve gas by shutting the engine off when you’re at a complete stop. The engine will turn on automatically when you take your foot off the brake. This is great for saving fuel during rush hour when the traffic lights are long!
  • The 9-speed automatic transmission also aids with fuel efficiency, returning excellent Traverse mpg specs on every drive.

Innovative Features to Enhance the Chevy Traverse MPG

The competitive Chevy Traverse gas mileage is aided by several components:

  • Within the engine, Intelligent Start/Stop Technology helps reduce fuel consumption by shutting the engine off when you’re stopped at an intersection in Winston-Salem. As soon as you release your foot from the brake, the engine starts right back up automatically. You’ll be preserving gas without even thinking about it!
  • With Traction Mode Select , you can choose how much grip your vehicle requires at any given moment based on current road conditions. For instance, traversing a dry, paved road will use up less gas than navigating snow or ice will.
  • A nine-speed automatic transmission works in tandem with the engine to promote greater fuel-efficiency as you cruise through High Point.
