9. Chevrolet Traverse

At first glance, the Chevrolet Traverse looks like an SUV, but it’s really more of a minivan in SUV clothing. The cabin is spacious, with more than enough room for the driver and passenger, while the rear seats have room for an additional 6 passengers. The Traverse is powered by a 281 horsepower V-6 engine coupled to a six-speed automatic transmission. Front wheel drive is standard, but all-wheel drive is optional. The all-wheel system is the better choice of the two, offering better stability and control in all weather types. Steering is sharp and responsive, and the suspension is well tuned to handle any road imperfections. The gas mileage is average for a large vehicle, with an EPA estimated 17 mpg city and 23 mpg highway.
