If you're looking for an outstanding SUV, take a look at the Tahoe and the Traverse. What's the difference between these two Chevrolet models? Stick around and learn all about them, so you can pick the best one for you and your family. The fully redesigned 2021 Tahoe is a terrific choice for a large SUV. It offers agile handling, capable engines, and loads of passenger and cargo space. The smaller Traverse is a midsize SUV with a robust engine that delivers great gas mileage. With a reasonable starting price, it's one of the best values in its class. more Talking About Reliability The Tahoe touts a class-leading predicted reliability rating from J.D. Power. People want to purchase reliable cars, and this rating is an important factor when picking out your next new Chevy SUV. The 2021 Tahoe earned a perfect, five-star rating. That score leads the class in forecasted short-term dependability. Chevy's new Traverse did well on the organization's assessment too. It earned an average mark of three out of five stars. For an SUV at this price point, that's hard to beat. A Look at the Interior The Tahoe is larger, so it offers more interior space. There's seating for seven people, or opt for the second-row bench seat and transport eight passengers. Its base LS trim seats nine on standard cloth upholstery. Move up the trim levels and get niceties like heated leather seats and faux-wood trim. For cargo space, how does a whopping 122.9 cubic feet sound? If you want one of the best-midsized cargo haulers in the class, opt for the Traverse. It puts up a maximum of 98.2 cubic feet with both rear rows folded down. The Traverse offers room for eight passengers standard, or opt for the available second-row captain's chairs and get seating for seven. Its spacious cabin is designed to move people, and even the third row can accommodate adults. That's a rarity in this class. Talking Technology If tech tops your list, get to know the new Tahoe. It's loaded with Chevrolet's Infotainment 3 Plus system that features a 10.2-inch touch screen and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. That's hard to find for the 2021 model year, even on luxury rivals. The Traverse comes equipped with the same infotainment system with a smaller, 7-inch touch screen. It features a Wi-Fi hot spot, six USB ports, Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. Give Me Power The new Tahoe gives you three choices under the hood. There's the standard 5.3-liter V-8, a 6.2-liter V-8, and a newly introduced turbodiesel 3.0-liter inline-six. No matter which powertrain you pick, you'll get ample power and 8,400 pounds of towing capacity with the diesel. Each trim in the Traverse lineup comes equipped with a 310-horsepower V-6 engine that's paired with a slick-shifting nine-speed automatic transmission. It features a fuel-saving stop-start function to earn 18 mpg in the city and 27 mpg highway. Whether the larger Tahoe or its sibling the Traverse piqued your interest, why not test drive both?
