The Chevrolet model that frequently lands on “Best Vehicle for Families” lists is about to get even better! This morning Chevrolet unveiled the all-new redesigned 2024 Chevy Traverse and we are excited by all the new features this 3-row crossover SUV has to offer. The new Traverse will be offered in four trim levels - LS, LT, RS, and Z71 (never before offered on the Traverse) – which are all powered by an all-new 2.5L turbocharged engine that delivers an estimated 315 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque, topping the current generation’s 310 hp and 266 lb-ft of torque. 

General Motors has finally given a release date for the brand new 2024 Chevy Traverse, the full-size crossover. A series of posts on social media by GM announced that the Traverse will debut on July 17^th. The Traverse will feature an off-road-focused Z71 variant that will be introduced, and the High Country trim will no longer be available. The 2024 Traverse is expected to have a new fresh exterior design that features dual-tier headlights, forward-leaning C-pillars, large-diameter wheels, and quad exhaust tips. Inside, the cabin will have increased space and better ergonomics. 
 

After celebrating its 70^th Anniversary for the 2023 model year, the mid-engine Chevrolet Corvette is still going strong. Chevrolet just released the order guide for the 2024 model year, and there are a few notable changes. First and foremost is the addition of the long-anticipated E-Ray variant which enhances the Corvette’s V8 with a front mounted electric motor that boosts horsepower from 495 to 655 and torque from 470 to 595 pound-feet. 

For 19 years Chevrolet has been proud to partner with Major League Baseball for the All Star Game, and this year they took the opportunity to present two military families with a new set of wheels. Amanda Tinsley (pictured above), the surviving spouse of Sgt. Tyler Tinsley, and Army Veteran Abreante Jones both brought home an all-new 2024 Chevrolet Trax. Chevrolet turned to military charities Operation Homefront and Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors to select deserving families. “The Jones and Tinsley families exemplify the service and sacrifice of the military community,”

If you’ve seen a commercial or trailer for the upcoming Barbie movie, you’ve probably seen the title character cruise around her Barbie world in a pink 1956 Corvette. A new commercial released by Chevrolet reveals that the Corvette isn’t the only Chevrolet that Barbie will ride in – she also hops into a Chevy Blazer EV to make a quick getaway thanks to the Blazer EV’s WOW (Wide Open Watts) Mode, which provides a 0-to-60 mph acceleration time under four seconds.
