How much does the 2022 Chevrolet Traverse cost?

Prices have softened 13.07% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 6,018 listings available, which gives you a solid amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2022 Chevrolet Traverse a good car?

Yes — the 2022 Chevrolet Traverse earns a 4.86/5 user rating and a 7.17/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Technology at 9/10.

Owners consistently praise the spacious interior, helpful safety features, and powerful engine. They also highlight the large cargo area and comfortable seating, which fit the Traverse’s role as a practical three-row SUV for families who want space without moving up to a larger full-size SUV.

The trade-offs are familiar: some drivers wanted more advanced driving tech, and fuel economy could be better. The expert review also points to cheap-feeling cabin materials and a noisy ride, especially over rough pavement.

With its roomy cabin, easy-to-use technology, and everyday practicality, the Traverse makes the most sense if you want a family hauler that stays manageable in size. The market also looks reasonably healthy, with 34.8% of listings marked as good or great deals.

Is the 2022 Chevrolet Traverse reliable?

Owners rate it 4.86/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a dependable, trouble-free ownership experience, with praise centered on the Traverse’s spaciousness, useful safety features, and strong everyday usability. That kind of repeat satisfaction usually matters more than a single feature when you’re shopping used.

The expert review also reinforces the idea that this is a straightforward, easy-to-live-with SUV rather than a complicated one. Its single-engine setup and conventional layout keep the ownership picture simple.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is less about complexity and more about condition, since a roomy family SUV can hide wear if it has had a hard life.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Chevrolet Traverse?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 80.6% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still run a vehicle history report on every candidate and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the listing price looks unusually attractive. Focus on signs of interior wear, suspension feel, and how the vehicle handles rough pavement, since those are the areas most likely to affect your day-to-day satisfaction.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base LS starts with front-wheel drive and a 7-inch touchscreen, while higher trims add an 8-inch display, more upscale appointments, and more available convenience features. The RS, Premier, and High Country trims bring more equipment, while the LT Leather can be optioned with some upgrades that are standard higher up.
• Powertrain: You get one engine choice: a 3.6-liter V6 with 310 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission. It is tuned for family hauling rather than excitement, and the AWD system can be run in front-drive mode when you do not need all-wheel traction.
• Safety package: Chevy Safety Assist is standard on all trim levels and includes forward-collision warning, pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, automatic high-beam headlights, and a following-distance indicator. The LS can add a Safety Package with rear parking assist sensors, blind-spot monitoring, lane-change assist, and rear cross-traffic alert; those features are standard on other trims. RS, Premier, and High Country add adaptive cruise control, higher-speed automatic emergency braking, and rear pedestrian alert, while Premier and High Country also get the vibrating Safety Alert Seat.
• Infotainment: LS and LT Cloth models use a 7-inch touchscreen, while other versions get an 8-inch high-definition display. Both systems include Bluetooth for two smartphones, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, connected services, and a WiFi hotspot, and Teen Driver is standard. The 8-inch system can add navigation, SiriusXM 360L, more apps, and Alexa Built-in.
• Fuel efficiency: The AWD model is rated at 20 mpg in combined driving, and the test vehicle returned 20.9 mpg on the evaluation loop.

Which 2022 Chevrolet Traverse trim should I buy?

The 2022 Chevrolet Traverse is offered in 7 trim levels: L, LS, LT Cloth, LT Leather, RS, Premier, and High Country.

Here's the short version:

• L: This is the entry point, but the available information here focuses more on the LS and above, so you should treat it as the most basic way into the lineup if price is your top priority.
• LS: This is the best-value starting point for many shoppers because it gets the core Traverse formula at the lowest price and can be equipped with the optional Safety Package.
• LT Cloth: This trim adds a step up in comfort and equipment while keeping the simpler cloth-based setup and the 7-inch touchscreen.
• LT Leather: This is the trim to consider if you want a more upscale cabin and the option to add some of the higher-end safety tech.
• RS: This is the style-forward choice, with blacked-out trim, 20-inch wheels, a Bose audio system, and more advanced safety equipment standard.
• Premier: This is the better-equipped family trim if you want more luxury and convenience, including the digital instrument panel and the vibrating Safety Alert Seat.
• High Country: This is the top-end choice if you want the most upscale Traverse experience, with the same premium safety and convenience content as Premier plus the highest-positioned trim identity.

Chevy Safety Assist is standard across the lineup, but the optional Safety Package on the LS and the extra driver-assistance features on higher trims are worth paying attention to.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Chevrolet Traverse?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you have room to shop carefully without rushing.

• Deal availability: 34.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 6,018 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 13.07% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 80.6% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $24,445, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Chevrolet Traverse's resale value?

The current average of $24,445 sits slightly below last year's $28,119.

That price movement suggests the Traverse has already absorbed a meaningful amount of depreciation, which can help future resale stability if you buy at the right number. If you pay close to the current average, your downside is smaller than it was a year ago, but condition and trim will still matter a lot when you go to sell.

A well-kept Traverse with strong equipment and clean history should remain easier to move than one with visible wear or a rough service record. For a future seller, the current market gives you a better entry point than last year, which can improve your odds of holding value.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.86/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Chevrolet Traverse safe?

The 2022 Chevrolet Traverse gets top “Good” ratings in most IIHS collision tests, but it rates “Acceptable” in the newer, more stringent side-impact test.

It earns an 8/10 safety score from our experts.

Chevy Safety Assist is standard on all trim levels and includes forward-collision warning, pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, automatic high-beam headlights, and a following-distance indicator. The LS can add a Safety Package with rear parking assist sensors, blind-spot monitoring, lane-change assist, and rear cross-traffic alert, while those features are standard on the other trims.

Higher trims add adaptive cruise control, higher-speed automatic emergency braking, and rear pedestrian alert, but the Traverse still does not offer lane-centering assist. That limitation matters if you want a more advanced highway driving system.

Should I buy a 2022 Chevrolet Traverse or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 34.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 80.6% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 13.07% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.86/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It adds wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus Chevy Safety Assist standard across the lineup.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $21,128, the 2021 costs less than the current year's $24,445 average.
• It offers a wide trim spread and a similar three-row family focus.

The 2022 is the better pick if you want the newer tech and safety content, especially the standard wireless smartphone integration and broader driver-assistance setup. If your main goal is to spend less, the 2021 is the value play, but you should expect to give up some of the 2022’s updates.
