I’d like to see a review with 8 people inside while towing a 5000 pound trailer with the 4 cylinder.

@amesweb 12 күн бұрын

Less than optimal, but if that's what you do regularly, then this is not the vehicle for you. You cant tow 5000 pounds with 8 people. You would be over the GVWR of ~ 6160lbs. With 8 people averaging 120 pounds a person, you would have about 500 lbs of capacity which would limit you to about 2500lbs of tow at best.

Great review. I like the exterior design and the infotainment setup, but the rest of the interior looks a little bland. I had a 1st Gen GMC Acadia with the 3.6L V6 and it had quite a few problems. I hope this new Turbo4 is more reliable. If I’m in the market for a SUV I’ll check this one out while shopping.

Nice video but I think your MPG figures are incorrect as in this application, 2 wheel vs all wheel drive doesn’t make that big of difference on the efficiency. Usually 1MPG below all 3 categories making this traverse 19 city 26 highway not sure what the combine is another video mentioned these figures which made much more sense. The Z71 give 19 city 24 highway with AWD

@americaelibertas2453 Ай бұрын

I don't know what it is with people throwing such a big fit because a car's engine doesn't happen to sound exactly like a traditional V6 or V8. You have to remember that a turbocharged four-cylinder is always going to sound different compared to a traditional, naturally aspirated engine. Also, is it really necessary to include such a subjective opinion in an objective car review, I mean what may sound refined to one person's ears may sound horrible in another. Personally, i think the new Traverse looks so much better compared to the previous generation's generic design, and the interior is light years ahead in terms of technology, fit and finish, and design.

@mark8684 Ай бұрын

It’s because a 60 degree V6 cylinder engine is inherently smoother running and more refined than an inline 4 cylinder engine by design. It’s also quieter. Since inline 4-cylinder engines have historically been used in smaller, cheaper vehicles, the noise and behavior of 4-cylinder engines is associated with smaller, cheaper vehicles and therein lies the disconnect.

I thought that if a car was released this late into the auto year (basically 2024.5), that they just put it as the next car year (2025)...? Car year normally begins in August or September of the previous year. Example, I bought my first generation KIA Soul Sport in August of 2009 as the initial 2010 model year.

Criticizing the Traverse for not having a hybrid powertrain is really bizarre in this context. There are fewer hybrids in this segment than not. Pointing to speculation that the next Palisade will MAYBE be a hybrid is a very weak argument.

@williamguillIII Ай бұрын

Hyundai is currently building an EV manufacturing plant in Savannah, Ga., that I'm sure if need be, they could produce Hybrids as well. Especially if the whole EV market shits the bed!

@G-Rated Ай бұрын

@@williamguillIII*gm* already has EV plants up and running and could easily build a Traverse EV and have it in production long before Hyundai even gets a hybrid powertrain in the Palisade and on the roads. Kelley Blue Book has historically been very crucial towards the general.

@ers1027 Ай бұрын

@@williamguillIII that’s not really the point. The criticism itself was strange. He knocks the Traverse for not being a hybrid, then he knocks it later on for not having a good V6 soundtrack anymore.

Wrong! The GMC Acadia has gone upmarket and now it satisfies that premium luxury space. The Buick Enclave has also gone upmarket and it is now full on luxury, I think that’s why there’s no need for a High Country trim.

Right now it has 126k KM Nissan pathfinder is too small inside and I think the dashboard material and leather is bad quality Honda pilot looks old and too expensive (64k $ in my country for full options) We do not have grand highlander and the normal highlander is too small and the engine is under powered for my taste Kia and hyundai are not reliable (the AC sucks and we have extreme weather) VW teramont (Atlas) is 4 cylinder and no dealership is near my house so maintenance could be very hard Mazda CX90 full option has captain chair and I want a bench in the second row I want a daily driven car and I am thinking of 3 options 1- Sell the durango and buy a new mid size SUV but the prices went to high and I don't see any car that is 100% in my eyes 2- Buy a used 2022-2023 Yukun AT4 or Denali at the same budget around 65k $ but it might be tiring to drive a big SUV daily 3- Keep the durango and maintain it and buy a small car around 26k$ like maza CX30 What should I go for?
