2023 Chevrolet Traverse Owner’s Manual — Drive Systems

All-Wheel Drive

Vehicles with this feature can operate in All-Wheel Drive (AWD) Mode.

Turn the knob to 4 to select AWD. The AWD Mode will stay selected until the mode is changed. See Driver Mode Control 0 214. When operated in Two-wheel drive, the vehicle will deliver power to the front wheels only and may provide better fuel economy.

When using a compact spare tire on an AWD vehicle, the system automatically detects the compact spare and reduces AWD performance to protect the system. To restore full AWD operation and prevent excessive wear on the system, replace the compact spare with a full-size tire as soon as possible. See Compact Spare Tire 0 308.
