What Happened
Chevrolet has introduced the 2027 Traverse High Country, the top trim of its three-row SUV, arriving after the next-generation Silverado High Country was unveiled in June. The company describes the Traverse as a modern, athletic and contemporary evolution of the brand's three-row SUV, with High Country sitting atop Chevrolet's trim line. Sales are strong: Traverse deliveries rose 20 percent in the second quarter of 2026, giving the model its best-ever first half.
“The High Country trim has represented a premium traditional feel featuring brown hues and bright chrome. As we see Chevrolet evolving, we're adding more modern touches like rich marquetry wood decor or energetic pops of color and warmer finishes.”
- Tritan Satin finish on grille and headlamp accents, updated badging, and 22-inch high-gloss black, machined-face aluminum wheels.
- Jet Black seats with Natural Tan accents, Natural Tan-edged seatbelts, debossed headrests, and real wood décor.
- Standard 2.5L turbocharged engine with 328 hp and 326 lb-ft of torque, plus up to 5,000 pounds of trailering capability (maximum ratings vary with load).
- 17.7-inch diagonal center touchscreen and standard interior camera with Cabin Glance (second- and third-row view) and Security Recording (records interior/exterior when theft alarm triggers; playback
The interior camera feature gives drivers a focused view of the second and third rows on the center screen; with a USB drive, Security Recording saves footage automatically when a theft alarm is triggered. Chevrolet says the latest High Country treatment will also be available on the next-generation 2027 Silverado. The Traverse shown in Mosaic Black Metallic is a preproduction model, with final production details subject to change.
