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 Nissan Pathfinder.

Dimensions
Since the Chevrolet Traverse is much wider than the Nissan Pathfinder, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Chevrolet Traverse, which is slightly longer than the Nissan Pathfinder.

The Chevrolet Traverse has a little more horsepower than the Nissan Pathfinder.

Powertrain
With somewhat higher torque, the Chevrolet Traverse transmits power to its wheels a bit more effectively than the Nissan Pathfinder.
