Comparison Review

Comfort
The Chevrolet Traverse offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the Ford Expedition, with comparable head- and legroom. The Chevrolet Traverse offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Ford Expedition, making it a little more comfortable for the driver and front passenger.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). When looking only at MSRP, the Chevrolet Traverse will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Ford Expedition.

Dimensions
Since the Chevrolet Traverse is much slimmer than the Ford Expedition, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. The Chevrolet Traverse is slightly shorter than the Ford Expedition, which may make it easier to park.

Performance
The Chevrolet Traverse has a little less horsepower than the Ford Expedition.

Powertrain
The Chevrolet Traverse has much lower torque than the Ford Expedition, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Chevrolet Traverse and the Ford Expedition. The Chevrolet Traverse has less cargo space than the Ford Expedition, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
