The countdown to the SEMA Show continues as Chevrolet
has taken the wraps off the Traverse SUP concept.
Named after stand up paddleboarding, the SUP has a
two-tone exterior with blue wave graphics and yellow stripes. The crossover has
also been equipped with dark gray accents, gloss black moldings, and stand up
paddleboard carrier made by Thule. The latter item holds a Riviera stand up
paddleboard and paddle.
Since automaker is in the business of making money,
the crossover has been outfitted with an assortment of Chevrolet Accessories
that can be purchased at dealerships. Notable items include black bowtie
emblems, a black grille insert, and 20-inch aluminum wheels with a black
finish. Designers also installed side steps and a trailer hitch kit.
Interior changes are fairly limited as Chevrolet
says the concept has embroidered headrests, illuminated door sill plates, and
all-weather floor mats. Last but not least, there's a cargo liner to prevent
the luggage compartment from getting dirty.
Chevrolet declined to mention performance
specifications but the model is likely powered by a 3.6-liter V6 engine that
develops 310 hp and 360 Nm of torque.
The SUP concept will be shown alongside
approximately 20 other Chevrolet models and we can expect to learn more about
them shortly.
