2020 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE

If you're searching for a 2020 Chevrolet Traverse LT Sport Utility for sale in Detroit, Michigan, this AWD-equipped three-row SUV at Best of Michigan Auto Sales deserves a serious look. With 84,250 miles on the odometer, it sits squarely in the sweet spot for used SUV shoppers — enough history to confirm it's been broken in, yet plenty of road left ahead. Whether you're hauling the family, tackling Michigan winters, or simply upgrading to something more capable, this Traverse LT checks the right boxes.
 

About This 2020 Chevrolet Traverse LT

The 2020 model year sits in the second generation of the Traverse, which Chevrolet completely redesigned in 2018. This generation brought a longer wheelbase, more interior space, and a more refined driving experience compared to the outgoing model. At just over 84,000 miles, this example is well within the range where a properly maintained Traverse has decades of service ahead of it. The LT trim is one of the most popular configurations for good reason — it adds meaningful upgrades over the base LS without pushing into luxury-territory pricing. This is a real family SUV built for real Michigan life.
 

2020 Chevrolet Traverse Performance and Engine

Under the hood sits Chevrolet's proven 3.6-liter V6 engine, paired with a smooth 9-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. The 3.6L V6 produces 310 horsepower and 266 lb-ft of torque, giving this full-size crossover confident acceleration whether you're merging onto I-75 or climbing on-ramps with a packed vehicle. The 9-speed transmission keeps the engine operating efficiently across a wide range of speeds, contributing to solid highway fuel economy for a vehicle this size — typically around 27 MPG on the highway.

The AWD system on this Traverse is a true asset for Michigan drivers. From early-season October snowfall to icy January roads across Wayne County, having all four wheels pulling gives you added confidence and stability. The system automatically distributes torque between the front and rear axles as road conditions change, without any driver input required.
 

Chevrolet Traverse LT Features and Interior

Technology and Connectivity

The LT trim brings a well-equipped cabin that feels genuinely premium without the premium price tag. You can expect the Chevrolet Infotainment 3 system with an 8-inch diagonal touchscreen, built-in Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, and available Wi-Fi hotspot capability. Bluetooth audio and hands-free calling make daily commuting safer and more convenient.
 

Comfort and Passenger Space

The Traverse LT seats up to seven or eight passengers depending on configuration, offering a second-row bench or captain's chairs. The third row actually accommodates adults comfortably — a real differentiator from smaller three-row crossovers. Tri-zone automatic climate control keeps everyone comfortable regardless of where they're sitting. Heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, remote start, and a power driver's seat are among the features commonly found on the LT package, making daily Michigan commutes in January far more bearable.
 

Safety Technology

Chevrolet loaded the 2020 Traverse with a comprehensive safety suite. Standard features include forward collision alert, automatic emergency braking, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, and following distance indicator. The LT also includes rear park assist and a rear vision camera, making tight parking situations in busy Detroit-area lots much easier to manage.
 

Chevrolet Traverse Reliability and Ownership

The second-generation Traverse has earned a solid reputation among owners and automotive analysts alike. The 3.6-liter V6 is a well-established engine found across multiple GM platforms, known for durability when properly maintained. Owners consistently praise the Traverse for its comfortable ride, quiet cabin, and interior versatility. At the 84,000-mile range, the most critical maintenance items — spark plugs, transmission service, and coolant flush — may be due or recently completed, so it's worth reviewing the vehicle's service history.

J.D. Power has rated the Traverse above average in initial quality among three-row SUVs, and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety awarded the 2020 Traverse a Top Safety Pick designation. For a family hauler in the Michigan market, those ratings matter. Long-term owners report the Traverse holding up well past 150,000 miles with routine maintenance, making this 84,250-mile example a genuinely strong long-term investment.
