2027 Chevrolet Traverse for Sale Hot Springs AR

For families across Hot Springs, Malvern and Arkadelphia, the move to a third row usually arrives after one weekend too many spent leaving someone, or the cooler, behind. The 2027 Traverse answers that with room for eight, up to 98 cubic feet of cargo behind a hands-free power liftgate, and a 5,000-pound tow rating that puts a real fishing boat on the ramp at Lake Hamilton rather than a jon boat and an apology. Pricing opens at $40,800 plus a $1,995 destination charge and climbs to a wood-and-suede High Country, yet every version shares the same 328-horsepower turbocharged engine, so the choice comes down to equipment and comfort instead of which motor to order.

Allen Tillery Auto Chevrolet has sold and serviced Chevrolets from the same address on Central Avenue in Hot Springs since 1967, and 2027 Traverse models are on the ground now. What follows lays out the four trims and their prices, the single 328-horsepower powertrain and its fuel numbers, the technology and safety equipment, the cargo and towing story, and a straight recommendation on which configuration fits how families in Malvern, Arkadelphia and the rest of the trade area actually drive.

2027 Traverse Engine and Powertrain

Because there is only one engine, the spec that usually opens a three-row comparison is settled before it starts. The turbocharged 2.5-liter four sends 328 horsepower and 326 lb-ft to an eight-speed automatic, output that clears the old V6 on regular fuel. What still varies is traction: LT, RS and High Country arrive front-drive with all-wheel drive a $2,000 box to tick, while the Z71 is offered only in all-wheel drive, matched to the loose surfaces it is built for. For a household running the school route through Malvern one day and a gravel boat landing the next, that Z71 distinction is the one worth thinking through early.

EPA estimates via fueleconomy.gov. Treat the highway figure as a steady-cruise ceiling on Interstate 30, not a running average.

2027 Traverse Trim Lineup and Pricing

Four trims, one price ladder, and for 2027 the High Country moves to the top of it, listing just above RS. Every figure below excludes the $1,995 destination charge, which is how Chevrolet publishes the numbers.

The step that surprises most shoppers is the one from LT to Z71: $8,300 buys the off-road hardware and standard all-wheel drive, and nothing in between. From there RS and High Country are close together at the top, separated by $300 and by taste rather than capability, since they share the same engine, seats and screen. Every trim gets its own feature-by-feature breakdown on the 2027 Traverse Trims and Pricing page.

Technology and Connectivity

Every 2027 Traverse centers on a 17.7-inch diagonal touchscreen paired with an 11-inch driver information display, running Google built-in with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. Wireless phone charging and second-row USB ports are standard across the line, so a family loading up for the drive to Malvern is not rationing the one cable that works. HD Surround Vision, which stitches the cameras into a bird's-eye view for tight parking, is available.

Super Cruise, GM's hands-free highway driver assistance system, is standard on both the RS and the High Country for 2027, bundled with a three-year OnStar Super Cruise plan. On a compatible stretch of Interstate 30 it lets you take your hands off the wheel while the car steers, holds its lane and manages its distance, and it is available elsewhere in the Traverse lineup as well. For anyone whose week includes a real highway commute, it is worth planning the trim decision around.

Interior and Comfort

The Traverse is built around three usable rows and 44.3 inches of front legroom, so the driver's seat is not the compromise it is in some three-row crossovers. The second row stretches to 41.5 inches of legroom, front shoulder room measures 62.3 inches and the rear bench a nearly identical 62.2, which is what lets three-across seating work back there without an argument over elbows. The LT's Smart Slide Seats tip and glide forward to open a path into the third row without pulling a child seat out first, a small thing that matters every single school morning.

Materials climb with the ladder. LT and Z71 keep a hard-wearing cabin suited to muddy cleats and lake-day towels; RS adds its blackout theme and a flat-bottom wheel; High Country tops it with real wood trim accents, microfiber suede through the cabin and exclusive Tritan Satin finishes inside and out. A panoramic sunroof is available, and the RS adds a One-Touch Fold automatic second row that drops at the press of a button when the cargo run wins out over the passenger count.

Cargo, Towing and Weekend Capability

Cargo is where the Traverse stops feeling like a stretched crossover. Groceries for a full house still fit behind the third row in its 22.9 cubic feet, all eight seats in use, and dropping the rear rows clears a maximum of 98 cubic feet for the flat-pack haul or a dorm move to Arkadelphia. The hands-free power liftgate takes an armful of bags without a free hand, and on RS and High Country the third row power-folds flat at the touch of a button rather than a reach across the load floor.

The 5,000-pound tow rating, available with the included trailering equipment across the lineup, is the number that separates the Traverse from the compact crowd. That is a real fishing boat and trailer down to Lake Hamilton on a Saturday, a small camper for a week at the lake, or a utility trailer for the Arkadelphia project weekend. It is not heavy-duty truck territory, and the Traverse never pretends to be a truck; it is exactly the tow rating a three-row family SUV should carry, and more than most rivals in the class offer.

Safety and Driver Assistance

Over 20 standard safety and driver assistance features come on every 2027 Traverse, a strong standard set for a family SUV rather than a menu of options. The core suite covers automatic emergency braking, forward collision alert, lane keeping and following-distance assistance, the systems that do the most on a busy merge onto Highway 70 or a rain-slick evening run home. HD Surround Vision and the trailering camera views handle the situations a driver simply cannot see, whether that is a tight parking deck in Little Rock or a boat trailer at the ramp.

Stepping up the lineup adds capability rather than swapping it in: the RS and High Country's standard Super Cruise turns a long highway stretch into hands-free driving, and the Z71's Hill Descent Control manages a slow, controlled crawl down a loose grade that a driver would otherwise ride the brakes through. Every trim starts from the same standard-safety floor, so the family shopping an LT is not trading away the protection that matters most.

Which 2027 Traverse Is Right for You?

For most families across Malvern, Arkadelphia and the wider trade area, a well-equipped LT covers the job, with all-wheel drive added for the winters and the wet ramps.
