When considering Chevy Traverse lease deals, it is nice to know the features of the generation of cars a particular model belongs to. The first generation of Chevy Traverse falls in the years 2009 to 2017.

Beginning with the year 2010, the early 2010 update on the LT models had the Chevy Traverse lose its Traverse badge from the front doors. Further, the General Motors logos too were removed from the front doors of the vehicle in the beginning 2010 models.

In the year 2013, the vehicle under went a face lift that was unveiled during the 2012 New York Auto Show.

On March 28, 2012, General Motors released pictures of Chevrolet’s new color touch-screen. Also, show cased were the standard My Link and a wood interior trim. Leather and cloth seating surfaces were also made available depending on the chosen model. The cloth covers are a standard feature on the LS and 1LT models, while the leather upholstery is standard on the LTZ, both of which are available on the 2LT model.

In the year 2014, not too many cosmetic changes were made in the model. The notable changes included the addition of lane departure warning and forward collision alert by Chevrolet. The dual charge capable USB port was shifted to the rear of the center console as an update of the audio system.

No notable changes were marked in the year 2015 model.

The 2016 Traverse model received minor changes like the reduction in the trim level.
