2009 Chevy Traverse

sheepdog1 · 03-28-2008, 11:33 AM

Any word when I can order a Traverse. I saw one at an auto show and it is second best to the Enclave but probably a lot lower price. My lease is up mid-June.

It should be on dealer lots by Fall of this year. Depending on how it's priced, it'll probably replace our Envoy as well.

I would guess we can start ordering in September or October. The release is supposed to be similar to the December launch of the Malibu.

Yes, so actually not until later in the year. The other '09 Lambda vehicles will start hitting lots in July, but the Traverse being a new product and from a new factory...it will be later in the year.

Hopefully you can wait, but if not, will have to figure something out.

As for price, it's not going to be THAT much lower than the others, only will be a bit because of the base LS model...but that's all in cutting out features. Just like a current Saturn Outlook XE, without options--should be exactly the same, starting in the high 20's with nothing extra, and then low 40's with everything.

Is Bluetooth standard on the '09s or is it an option?

jmlee0695 · 08-07-2008, 05:01 PM

standard. on the traverse forum they said you can order now

jmlee0695 · 08-10-2008, 02:23 AM

when is it supposed to be in dealers?

espo19047 · 08-10-2008, 10:24 AM

My dealership has four ordered. They don't have a TPW yet but they are probably 3 to 4 weeks away.

drew630 · 08-10-2008, 05:37 PM

I would say they should start hitting dealers any day now. I saw a truck load full of them in Nashville last week.

Wow, really? That must have been the first batch than. I know it was the Traverse because I was kicking myself for not thinking to take a picture with my phone to share with you guys.

TheGeneral · 08-10-2008, 07:28 PM

if the poster above said august 2nd for start of production figure 1 month till you see it at a dealership.

jmlee0695 · 08-11-2008, 12:59 AM
