The New Chevy Traverse vs. The Competition
The New Chevy Traverse Vs. The Competition
Upgrading the family ride is always interesting. Your husband wants one thing, you want another, and the kids have their own set of demands. Let's compare the new Chevy Traverse with a trio of worthy competitors. Then you'll have a better idea of what the Traverse offers and why it's such a popular choice for families in Livingston and the surrounding areas.
Exterior Design
The Chevy Traverse is a blank canvas waiting for your imagination. With so many ways to customize your Chevy SUV and make it stand out in a crowd, you'll love your commute a little more every day. You can ride with standard 18-inch wheels or upgrade your footprint with a set of 22-inch wheels with one of several wheel designs. Want more? Check out the exclusive RS styling with signature badging, accents, and other highlights.
Grand Cherokee
The Jeep Cherokee's signature seven-slot grille gives it an unmistakable presence on the road. The standard 18-inch wheels are nice enough, but you can upgrade to 20-inch wheels. The dark front bumper follows every trim, no matter which color the SUV bathes in, while U-Shaped LED lights create different vibes. Honestly, in a world of modern mid-sized SUVs, the Grand Cherokee isn't a bad second choice.
Honda Pilot
The Honda Pilot aims for a more off-road, rugged type of appearance than past years' renditions. From the deep, dark front grille to the available 20-inch wheels, the Honda Pilot is definitely a looker. However, we'd have to rank this one third out of the four mid-sized SUVs in question.
Mazda CX-90
The Mazda CX-90 offers smooth, contoured character lines and charismatic LED lights. It's unassuming and flies below the radar in a world of modern mid-sized vehicles. For a more aggressive appeal, there are available 21-inch wheels, but that's the most eye-popping upgrade available for the Mazda CX-90.
Interior Design
Chevy Traverse
The Traverse is available with room for seven or eight, depending on whether you choose second-row captain's chairs or a second-row bench. Seating comfort and cabin designs will change when you climb to a higher trim. You can find Jet Black perforated leather seats with torch red accents to match your fiery passion for style. When it's time to go to your son's softball game in Hanover, NJ, or load up on groceries in Newark, the best-in-class 98 cubic feet of cargo volume will easily make room.
Grand Cherokee
The Cherokee makes room for five inside the cabin. Cloth seats are standard, with available upgrades like leather upholstery unlocked in higher trims. With the second row folded, drivers will have up to 68.3 cubic feet of cargo room.
Honda Pilot
The Honda Pilot accommodates up to eight passengers. Versatile seating arrangements include second-row captain's chairs or a bench setup. The small third row is perfect for elementary-aged children, while Max cargo room expands to 87 cubic feet with both rows folded.
Mazda CX-90
The Mazda CX-90 is luxury. With that in mind, you'll pay more to get everything this SUV has to offer. Inside, drivers in Summit, NJ, will fit up to eight passengers. Entry-level trims feature leatherette seats, while higher trims exchange that upholstery for Nappa leather seats. Further upgrades include heated second row seats and other high-end upgrades. With all seats folded downward, drivers will have 75.2 cubic feet of cargo room.
Technology and Safety

Every Traverse comes standard with a 17.7-inch infotainment display with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility, an 11-inch driver information center, and a wireless charging pad.

Honda Pilot

Select trims will also include a wireless charging pad, USB ports in each row, in-cabin navigation, and a Wi-Fi Hotspot. Honda Sensing 360 is the standard safety package for this model.
Mazda CX-90
The Mazda CX-90 brings top-tier tech and safety features. Entry-level models receive a 10.25-inch infotainment screen mated to a 7-inch LCD instrument cluster. Higher trim receives the upgraded 12.3-inch infotainment screen and LCD monitor. Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop and Go, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, and Blind Spot Monitoring are a few of the standard safety features.
