2027 Chevrolet Traverse Trims and Pricing
The 2027 Chevrolet Traverse comes in four trim levels — LT, Z71, RS and High Country — spanning $43,095 MSRP† to $60,095 MSRP†. All four share the same engine, so the money you spend moving up the range buys capability, materials and technology rather than power.
The most interesting number in the 2027 lineup is the smallest: just $300 MSRP† separates the sporty RS from the range-topping High Country, which for 2027 moves above the RS to become the most expensive Traverse Chevrolet builds.
Front-wheel drive is standard on the LT, RS and High Country, and all-wheel drive adds $2,000 MSRP† to any of the three. The Z71 is the exception — it is engineered as an all-wheel-drive vehicle only. Here is how the four trims line up, and what each step up actually changes.
† Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for new vehicles includes manufacturer and distributor options and delivery, process and handling fees, which may be subject to change at any time. MSRP excludes taxes, title, license and dealer installed options, accessories, fees and charges. MSRP is not the dealer advertised price. Dealer price will vary. The dealer sets the final price.
The 2027 Traverse Lineup and Starting Prices
| Trim | Front-Wheel Drive | All-Wheel Drive |

| LT | 43,095MSRP† | 45,095 MSRP† |
| Z71 | Not offered — all-wheel drive only | $51,395 MSRP† |
| RS | 57,795MSRP† | 59,795 MSRP† |

Shared Across Every Trim
| Specification | Every 2027 Traverse |
|---|---|
| Engine | 2.5L turbocharged four-cylinder |
| Horsepower | 328 hp |
| Torque | 326 lb-ft |
| Transmission | 8-speed automatic |
| Maximum towing capacity | 5,000 lbs§ — Trailering Package standard on every trim |
Because the powertrain is identical from the LT to the High Country, output does not change as you move up the range. Neither does capability: the Trailering Package is standard equipment on every 2027 Traverse, and all four trims, in front- or all-wheel drive, carry the same 5,000 lbs§ maximum trailer weight rating.
No trim is quicker than another, and no trim tows more than another. The money you spend moving up the range buys appearance, materials, off-road hardware and driver-assistance technology rather than power or pulling capacity.
§ Maximum towing and payload capacity figures are based on properly equipped vehicles and vary by configuration. Do not exceed any weight rating. See your owner's manual and the vehicle's door-jamb label for specific capacities.

Key Equipment by 2027 Traverse Trim
With one engine and one tow rating across the lineup, the differences between trims come down to drivetrain, wheels, seating and driver-assistance technology. These two tables cover every trim side by side.

| LT | Front-wheel drive standard, all-wheel drive available | 18-inch Grazen Metallic machined-face aluminum | Available | 8 with the available second-row bench |
| Z71 | All-wheel drive only | 18-inch high-gloss Black machined-face aluminum with all-terrain tires | Available | 7 |
| RS | Front-wheel drive standard, all-wheel drive available | 22-inch high-gloss Black-painted aluminum | Standard | 7 |
| High Country | Front-wheel drive standard, all-wheel drive available | 22-inch high-gloss Black machined-face aluminum | Standard | 7 |
Seating Comfort and Audio by Trim

What Standard Features Come on the 2027 Traverse LT?
The LT is the practical foundation of the lineup at $43,095 MSRP† with front-wheel drive, and it is the only 2027 Traverse that can carry eight people. Standard second-row Smart Slide captain's chairs seat seven; an available second-row bench raises capacity to eight, a configuration the Z71, RS and High Country do not offer.

How the Z71 Changes the Traverse
The Z71 is the capability branch of the lineup, and it is all-wheel drive only at $51,395 MSRP†. Measured against an all-wheel-drive LT, the step costs $6,300 MSRP†, and that money goes into mechanical hardware rather than cabin upgrades.

MSRP excludes taxes, title, license and dealer installed options, accessories, fees and charges. MSRP is not the dealer advertised price. Dealer price will vary. The dealer sets the final price.
Advanced Twin-Clutch AWD System
Standard all-wheel drive unique to the Z71.
Terrain Mode and Hill Descent Control
Driver-selectable control for low-traction surfaces.
Off-Road Suspension
Off-road tuning with frequency-based dampers.
Skid Plate and Red Tow Hooks
Underbody protection and recovery points.
18-Inch Wheels with All-Terrain Tires
High-gloss Black machined-face wheels.
The Z71 carries the same cabin technology as the LT, so nothing is traded away for the off-road hardware. Its hardware changes where the Traverse can go rather than what it can pull: the Z71's maximum trailer weight rating is the same 5,000 lbs§ carried by every other 2027 Traverse.
If you want the drivetrain and payload detail behind that hardware, our 2027 Traverse performance, payload and towing capacity page covers it, and the 2027 Chevy Tahoe vs. Chevy Traverse comparison shows how the Traverse sits against the larger SUV on our lot.

What Is the Difference Between the 2027 Traverse RS and High Country?
Three hundred dollars. That is the entire gap between the RS at $57,795 MSRP† and the High Country at $58,095 MSRP† with front-wheel drive, and it holds at $59,795 MSRP† versus $60,095 MSRP† with all-wheel drive. Because the difference is this small, the decision comes down to which personality you want rather than what you can afford.

Put simply, the RS is the blacked-out one and the High Country is the material upgrade. Neither asks you to give up the other's technology.

Packages That Change the Price
Optional packages are where two identically badged Traverses end up thousands of dollars apart. These four move the number most.
| Package | Price | Available On | What It Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sun and Wheel | $3,200 MSRP† | LT | Power panoramic sunroof with power sunshade; 20-inch Carbon Flash Metallic machined-face wheels |
| Midnight and Sport Editions | $2,285 MSRP† | LT | Darker exterior appearance treatment |
| Driver Confidence | $1,395 MSRP† | LT and Z71 — standard on RS and High Country | HD Surround Vision, rear camera mirror, key card, 120V power outlet, Rear Pedestrian Alert, Traffic Sign Recognition |
| Power panoramic sunroof | $1,700 MSRP† | Z71, RS and High Country | Power panoramic sunroof with power sunshade |

Two details are worth knowing before you build one. The panoramic sunroof is a standalone option on the Z71, RS and High Country, but on the LT it comes only as part of the Sun and Wheel Package. And Super Cruise, standard on the RS and High Country, can be added to the LT and Z71 through the Enhanced Driving Package.¶
