2011 Traverse Shows Off At The Lexington Chevrolet Dealership

At Jack Burford Chevrolet, Lexington Chevrolet shoppers are sure to find the right Traverse for them with four available trims — the LS, 1LT, 2LT and LTZ — and a choice of Front-Wheel Drive (FWD) or All-Wheel Drive (AWD) models. Beneath the hood of the Traverse lies a powerful 3.6-liter engine with efficiency-enhancing Variable Valve Timing Direct Injection. With this engine the 2011 Traverse can produce 281 horsepower and 266 lb-ft of torque in the LS, 1LT and 2LT trims and 288 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque in the TLZ.

In today’s economy, though, power can’t come at the cost of efficiency. Fortunately, drivers won’t have to sacrifice either in the Traverse, which has the best fuel economy of any eight-passenger crossover on the market at an EPA-estimated 17mpg in the city and 24mpg on the highway in the FWD model.

The Traverse offers added practicality with more cargo space than any competitor, an astounding 116.4 cubic feet with the second- and third-row seats folded. Even with passengers in all three rows, the Traverse still offers a best-in-class 24.4 cubic feet of space.

The 2011 Traverse’s unique ability to combine a smooth ride and responsive handling with ample cargo capability has made it a top choice among Lexington Chevrolet shoppers and consumers nationwide. Convenient features are available for this attractively priced SUV including split-folding second- and third-row seats, air-conditioning, full power accessories, OnStar and a six-speaker CD/MP3 player with an auxiliary audio jack and satellite radio.

Given all that the 2011 Chevy Traverse offers, it’s hard to argue that now isn’t the perfect time to purchase a new 2011 Traverse from your leading Lexington Chevrolet dealer, Jack Burford Chevrolet.
