2027 Chevy Bolt For Sale in Northwest Arkansas | Nunnally EV Buying Guide By the George Nunnally Chevrolet team · Published October 4, 2026 THE SHORT VERSION The 2027 Chevrolet Bolt is a front-wheel-drive electric hatchback starting at $28,995 (including destination), with a launch LT at $29,990. It is EPA-rated at up to 262 miles of range on a 65 kWh LFP battery, and returns 120 MPGe combined. It is the first Chevrolet EV with a standard NACS port, so it plugs straight into Tesla Superchargers. A 150 kW DC fast charger takes it from 10 to 80 percent in about 26 minutes. Two trims: the LT and the sport-styled RS (around $32,995). You can see current inventory and set up a test drive at George Nunnally Chevrolet in Bentonville. See the 2027 Bolt lineup in stock. If you are shopping for a 2027 Chevrolet Bolt in Northwest Arkansas, here is the direct answer: it starts at $28,995 with destination, goes up to 262 miles on a charge, and it is in the buying stage now at George Nunnally Chevrolet. The Bolt is back for 2027 as an affordable EV built for exactly the kind of driving people do here, short commutes up and down the interstate with the occasional longer run to the airport or the lake. This guide walks through what it costs, how far it really goes, which trim to pick, and what it is like to own one around here. For the full technical detail on any section, we link straight to the research pages our team put together. In this guide What does a 2027 Bolt cost here? How far does it go, and how do you charge it? LT or RS: which Bolt should you buy? Is it cheap to own? Bolt or Equinox EV? Common questions What does a 2027 Bolt cost here? The 2027 Bolt LT starts at $28,995 including the $1,395 destination charge, and the launch build came in at $29,990. The sport-styled RS runs about $32,995. That makes it one of the least expensive new EVs you can buy, and pricing is the same whether you are driving in from Rogers or down the road. For the full breakdown of what separates the two trims, our Bolt trims comparison lays it out side by side, and you can check what is on the ground right now on the 2027 Bolt overview page. If you want to work out a monthly number before you visit, the payment calculator and pre-approval form get you most of the way there from home. How far does it go, and how do you charge it? The Bolt is EPA-rated at up to 262 miles on a full charge, drawing from a 65 kWh lithium-iron-phosphate battery. For a local commuter, that is comfortably more than a week of typical driving between charges. Winter here tends to arrive as ice and glaze rather than deep snow, and cold weather trims any EV's range, so the standard heat-pump climate system that helps protect range in the cold is a useful piece of equipment locally. Charging is where the 2027 car pulls ahead of the old Bolt. It is the first Chevrolet EV with a standard NACS port, which means it plugs directly into Tesla Superchargers along the I-49 corridor and up toward XNA without an adapter. On a 150 kW DC fast charger it goes from 10 to 80 percent in roughly 26 minutes, and the 11.5 kW onboard charger handles overnight top-ups at home. Our range and charging guide maps this against real local trips. LT or RS: which Bolt should you buy? Both trims share the same 210-horsepower front motor, the same 262-mile range, the same 65 kWh battery, and 17-inch wheels, so no one is buying range or capability by moving up. The LT is the value pick and carries the 11.3-inch touchscreen with Google built-in that runs Maps and Assistant natively. The RS is new for 2027 and adds sport styling with gloss-black roof rails and wheels and a unique grille badge for buyers who want the car to look the part. If you want every spec in one place, the specs and dimensions page has it, and the technology and safety rundown covers the screen, the driver aids, and available Super Cruise hands-free driving. Is it cheap to own? An EV skips the oil changes, and the EPA pegs the Bolt's annual energy cost at about $650, which is where a lot of the monthly math works out in your favor. Chevrolet backs the high-voltage battery for 8 years or 100,000 miles, on top of the standard 3-year/36,000-mile basic and 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain coverage. Service around here means tire rotations, cabin filters, and brake fluid rather than a combustion maintenance schedule. Our maintenance and ownership guide spells out what an electric Bolt actually needs, and when it is time, our service team handles it. Bolt or Equinox EV? The honest answer for most first-time EV shoppers is the Bolt: it is thousands less, it charges the same way, and 262 miles covers local life. If you need more room, more range, or available all-wheel drive and the budget stretches, the larger Chevrolet Equinox EV is the step up, and it stays in the same family and the same service department. We put the two head to head in the Bolt vs Equinox EV comparison. Ready to drive one? See what is in stock and pick a time that works for you. See Bolt Inventory Schedule a Test Drive Which Bolt fits which buyer? If you are a commuter or a first-time EV buyer who charges at home, the LT is all the car you need and the easiest monthly payment. If you want the look to match the tech and you are cross-shopping style, the RS earns its premium. If you regularly haul a family plus cargo or want all-wheel drive, step up to the Equinox EV instead. Everything you need to decide sits in one place on the 2027 Bolt research hub. Local note: most of our Bolt shoppers are trading a gas commuter for something cheaper to run on the daily grind between Bentonville and the office parks around Pinnacle Hills. If that is you, a quick trade-in estimate plus a home charging plan is usually the whole conversation, and we can knock both out in one visit. Common questions How much is a 2027 Chevy Bolt near Bentonville? The 2027 Bolt LT starts at $28,995 including destination, with a launch build at $29,990, and the RS runs about $32,995. Local pricing is the same across the area. How many miles does the 2027 Bolt go on a charge? It is EPA-rated at up to 262 miles of range from its 65 kWh LFP battery, and returns 120 MPGe combined. Can the 2027 Bolt use Tesla Superchargers? Yes. It is the first Chevrolet EV with a standard NACS port, so it connects to Tesla Superchargers directly, and a 150 kW DC fast charger takes it from 10 to 80 percent in about 26 minutes. What is the difference between the Bolt LT and RS? Both share the 210-horsepower motor, 262-mile range, and 17-inch wheels. The RS adds sport styling with gloss-black roof rails and wheels and a unique grille badge at about $32,995. How long is the 2027 Bolt battery warranty? Chevrolet covers the high-voltage battery for 8 years or 100,000 miles, alongside a 3-year/36,000-mile basic and 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty.

Difference Between Corvette 1LT, 2LT, and 3LT Trims NWA AR Originally published March 17, 2026 · Updated September 20, 2026 A Corvette Stingray. The 1LT, 2LT and 3LT levels share the same body and the same engine. The Short Version 1LT, 2LT and 3LT are the three equipment levels of the Corvette Stingray. The Grand Sport and Grand Sport X use the same three names. Every level of a car has the same engine, so you are choosing equipment, not power. The Z06 and ZR1 use LZ levels instead. 1LT: removable roof panel on the coupe, Bose 10-speaker audio, 8-way power GT1 seats in Mulan leather and a wireless phone charger. 2LT adds 14-speaker Bose Performance Series audio, heated and ventilated seats, a head-up display, a Performance Data Recorder and blind-zone alerts. 3LT adds Napa leather GT2 seats, a custom leather-wrapped cabin and 14 interior color options. 2027 Stingray coupe starting prices are $71,000 for the 1LT, $78,100 for the 2LT and $82,750 for the 3LT, before the $2,495 destination charge. The 2026 Stingray 1LT coupe started at $70,000. The trim ladder is the same for 2026 and 2027. The engine is not: the 2026 Stingray has a 6.2L V8 making 490 horsepower, and the 2027 Stingray has the new 6.7L LS6 V8 making 535 horsepower and 520 lb-ft of torque. The choice between the Corvette 1LT, 2LT and 3LT decides the seats you sit in, the stereo you hear, the safety alerts on the I-49 run between Rogers and Fayetteville and how the cabin looks every time you open the door. This guide covers all three levels for both the 2026 and the 2027 Corvette, with the 2027 numbers first because that is the car most shoppers are asking about now. Our 2027 Corvette overview and 2026 Corvette overview cover each model year in full. Corvette 1LT vs 2LT vs 3LT at a glance 1LT 2LT 3LT 2027 coupe starting price* $71,000 $78,100 $82,750 Step up from the level before — +$7,100 +$4,650 Seats 8-way power GT1, Mulan leather GT1 heated and ventilated, power lumbar and wing adjust; GT2 available GT2 in Napa leather, standard Audio Bose 10-speaker Bose Performance Series 14-speaker Bose Performance Series 14-speaker Head-up display Not standard Standard Standard Performance Data Recorder Not standard Standard Standard Rear Cross Traffic and Side Blind Zone Alert Not standard Standard Standard Interior finish Standard cabin Standard cabin 14 interior color options, custom leather-wrapped instrument panel and doors, sueded microfiber upper trim Removable roof panel (coupe) Yes Yes Yes *Chevrolet starting prices for the coupe, before the $2,495 destination charge and before options. The convertible is a separate, higher price at each level. Prices change, so ask us for the current figure on the exact car. Every 1LT, 2LT and 3LT Stingray also shares the 8-speed dual-clutch transmission, the three-screen cockpit with a 12.7-inch center display, a 14-inch driver display and a 6.6-inch auxiliary display, and the option to add the Z51 Performance Package. Our 2027 Corvette trims page lists every level of every 2027 Corvette, and the 2026 Corvette models compared page does the same for 2026. Corvette 1LT: the whole Stingray at the lowest price The 1LT is not a stripped car. It is the full mid-engine Stingray with the same engine, transmission and chassis as the 3LT, and it comes with a removable roof panel on the coupe, a Bose premium 10-speaker system, 8-way power GT1 seats wrapped in Mulan leather, a wireless phone charger, an HD rear vision camera and a rear camera mirror. The Competition Sport seat is available on the 1LT for buyers who want more side bolstering, and the Z51 package is available too. The 1LT fits the driver who wants the driving experience first and plans to add options selectively, and it is where most Stingray orders begin. Browse the 2027 Stingray for sale page or the 2026 Stingray for sale page to see what is available. Corvette 2LT: daily-driver comfort and the data recorder The 2LT keeps everything on the 1LT and adds the equipment you notice on an ordinary Tuesday. The seats are heated and ventilated, with power lumbar and wing adjustment, which matters in an Ozark summer and on a cold morning in Springdale. The audio steps up to the 14-speaker Bose Performance Series system. A head-up display projects speed and driving information onto the windshield, and Rear Cross Traffic Alert and Side Blind Zone Alert watch the spaces you cannot see when you back out of a lot in Bella Vista or change lanes on I-49. The 2LT also adds the Performance Data Recorder, which records video and lap data from the driver seat and shows it on the car’s screens with coaching tips. For 2026, Chevrolet also lists a heated steering wheel and an HD Curb View Camera at the 2LT. The GT2 seat with carbon-fiber trim is available as an option on the 2LT. The 2LT is where the Stingray becomes an everyday car for many buyers, with the same engine and a $7,100 step from the 1LT. If the car will see commuter miles between Rogers and Fayetteville, or a weekend run to Pea Ridge National Military Park, this is the level built for it. Our 2026 Corvette technology and interior page covers the screens, the audio and the driver-assistance features in detail. Corvette 3LT: the finished interior The 3LT is the cabin level. It includes everything on the 2LT and adds GT2 seats in Napa leather with carbon-fiber trim as standard, a custom leather-wrapped instrument panel and doors, sueded microfiber upper trim and 14 interior color options, so the inside can match the outside and the driver you are. The step from the 2LT is $4,650, the smallest jump on the ladder. The 3LT fits the buyer who spends real time in the car, whether that is a day trip to Devil’s Den State Park or a Saturday parked at Crystal Bridges, and wants the cabin to feel as special as the drive. The engine, the transmission and the performance are the same as on the 1LT. 2026 vs 2027 Corvette Stingray: what changed The three equipment levels are the same for 2026 and 2027, and the 1LT coupe starts $1,000 higher for 2027. The change that matters is under the rear deck. 2026 Stingray 2027 Stingray Engine 6.2L LT2 naturally aspirated V8 6.7L LS6 naturally aspirated V8 Horsepower 490 (495 with the performance exhaust) 535 Torque 465 lb-ft (470 with the performance exhaust) 520 lb-ft 0-60 mph 2.9 seconds with the Z51 package 2.8 seconds, available EPA city / highway / combined 16 / 25 / 19 mpg 15 / 25 / 18 mpg Fuel Premium Premium Transmission 8-speed dual-clutch 8-speed dual-clutch 1LT coupe starting price* $70,000 $71,000 *Before destination and options.

The LS6 is a new 6.7L V8 with 409 cubic inches and 520 lb-ft of torque, and the same LS6 is the engine in the new 2027 Grand Sport. Our 2027 Corvette specs page has the full 2027 numbers, and the 2026 Corvette specs and dimensions page has the 2026 figures. Which Corvettes use 1LT, 2LT and 3LT?

Choosing your 2027 Traverse trim LT. The LT is the entry point and the most flexible layout. It is the trim with 7-passenger seating and an available 8-passenger option, Smart Slide Seats, a hands-free liftgate and the 17.7-inch touchscreen. It fits a family that wants the full three-row Traverse at $40,800, and the Midnight and Sport Editions add a darker or sportier look. Z71. The Z71 is the trim for gravel roads, campsites and the trail to a Beaver Lake ramp. It has the Advanced Twin-Clutch AWD system, Terrain Mode, Hill Descent Control, an off-road suspension and a skid plate, and it is all-wheel drive only. RS. The RS is the sport-styled trim, with 22-inch gloss black wheels, a blackout grille and roof rails, and Super Cruise is standard with a 3-year OnStar Super Cruise plan, which gives you hands-free driving on compatible highways. The second and third rows fold with power. High Country. The High Country is the flagship, with real wood trim accents, microfiber suede throughout the cabin, exclusive Tritan Satin finishes, 22-inch high gloss black machined-face wheels and standard Super Cruise. It is $300 above the RS and the top of the 2027 ladder. Front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive is the other decision. FWD is standard on the LT, RS and High Country and returns 22 mpg combined, while AWD adds $2,000 and returns 21 mpg combined. Ozark winters bring ice storms and freezing rain, and AWD is the choice for drivers who want added grip on hills and back roads; the Z71 has it as standard. Which Chevrolet SUV is right for you?

The Short Version Two new sixth-generation small-block V8s replace the 5.3L and 6.2L on the 2027 Silverado 1500. The 5.7L makes 402 horsepower and 428 lb-ft. The 6.6L makes 481 horsepower and 501 lb-ft. Both use direct and port fuel injection and a 10-speed automatic. The 5.7L tows up to 13,700 pounds. The 6.6L tows up to 9,700 pounds. The numbers for the engines in the redesigned 2027 Silverado 1500 are out, and the two new V8s are the headline. Here are the specs, what changed, and what each engine means for a driver around Bentonville, Rogers, Springdale and Fayetteville. For the whole truck, start with our 2027 Silverado 1500 research hub or the 2027 Silverado 1500 overview. What is the Gen VI small-block V8? The 2027 Silverado's V8s are sixth-generation small-block engines: the L76 5.7L and the L78 6.6L. They replace the 5.3L and 6.2L V8s. The 5.7L is 350 cubic inches with a stroke 6 mm longer than the engine it replaces, and the 6.6L is 400 cubic inches. Both use direct and port fuel injection, and a new lubrication system adds a continuously variable oil pump and an on-engine oil cooler. They are assembled at GM's Flint Engine Operations, Tonawanda Propulsion and St. Catharines Propulsion. The lineup offers the most powerful naturally aspirated V8 in its class, a GM-estimated claim. 2027 Silverado 1500 engine specs The full spec sheet is on the 2027 Silverado 1500 specs page.

What's New: 2027 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD in Bentonville, Siloam, NWA Originally published March 28, 2026 · Updated September 20, 2026 2026 Silverado 2500HD High Country shown. The 2027 keeps the same cabs, trims and transmission. The Short Version The 2027 Silverado 2500HD is the same truck as the 2026, not a redesign. Cabs, trims, colors and the 10-speed automatic carry over. The change is under the hood: the standard gas V8 is now listed as L8S and the available Duramax turbo-diesel V8 as L6P. GM has not released 2027 horsepower, torque, towing, payload or prices for the HD trucks. Production is reported to start in November. No on-sale date has been announced. The next full redesign is reported for the 2029 model year. Drivers in Bentonville, Siloam Springs and across Northwest Arkansas keep asking whether the 2027 Silverado 2500HD is a new truck. It is not. It is the current heavy-duty Silverado with new engine codes, and the 2026 Silverado 2500HD hub still describes the truck itself. What follows is what stays the same, what changes and what is still unreleased. What carries over from 2026 Item 2027 Silverado 2500HD Cabs and beds Regular, Double and Crew Cab with standard and long beds, in 2WD and 4WD Trims Work Truck, Custom, LT, ZR2, LTZ and High Country Transmission Allison-branded 10-speed automatic with both engines Paint White Sands, Red Hot, Summit White, Black, Cypress Gray, Sterling Gray Metallic and Lakeshore Blue Metallic (White Sands is not offered on the Work Truck or LT) Max Trailering Package Requires the Duramax diesel and the gooseneck/fifth-wheel prep package For the full trim breakdown, see our Silverado 2500HD trim guide. The trims are unchanged, so the guide applies to the 2027 too. Want to see one long-bed configuration? Here is a 2026 2500HD LTZ long bed. What changes: two new engine codes The 2027 ordering documents list the standard gas engine as L8S, a V8 with direct injection and variable valve timing. The available Duramax turbo-diesel V8 is listed as L6P. They replace the L8T gas V8 and the L5P Duramax in the 2026 truck. A new engine code means GM changed the engine in some way. It does not say how much, and it does not say power went up. Industry reports describe the gas engine as an updated version of the 6.6L V8, and they say the new Duramax's size has not been confirmed. GM has confirmed neither point. What GM has not released yet Horsepower and torque for either engine. The displacement of the new Duramax. Towing and payload ratings. Starting prices for any trim. An on-sale date. Until those are out, any site quoting 2027 Silverado 2500HD specs is repeating 2026 numbers. We would rather tell you that than guess. 2026 Silverado 2500HD numbers for reference 2026 engine Power Torque Maximum towing 6.6L V8 gas 401 hp 464 lb-ft 16,000 lb, conventional hitch 6.6L Duramax turbo-diesel V8 470 hp 975 lb-ft 20,000 lb conventional; 22,050 lb gooseneck or fifth-wheel, with the Max Trailering Package These are 2026 figures. The 2027 engines carry new codes, so the 2027 ratings may differ, and we will not assume they match. Our towing and payload page breaks down the 2026 ratings by cab and hitch type, and the specs page has the rest. 2026 prices while 2027 pricing is unpublished 2026 trim Starting price Work Truck $45,900 Custom $49,200 LT $52,600 LTZ $63,300 ZR2 $73,200 High Country $73,600 Prices exclude destination and were read from chevrolet.com on September 20, 2026, which still lists the 2026 Silverado HD. Current trucks and offers are on our 2026 Silverado 2500HD page, with local pages for Bentonville, Springdale and Fayetteville. Silverado 2500HD en español covers the same ground. When will it arrive? GM Authority reports production of the 2027 Silverado HD starting in November: Crew Cab on November 16, Double Cab on November 23 and Regular Cab on November 30. The outlet calls those dates tentative. GM has not announced when trucks will reach dealers, so we can only tell you what has been reported. The 2027 Silverado 2500HD availability guide covers the timeline in more detail. Buy a 2026 or wait for the 2027? Buy a 2026 if you need a truck now. The cabs, trims and transmission are the same, and the ratings and prices are published. The maintenance schedule is already set. Wait if the engine is the deciding factor. If you are choosing between gas and diesel, or you want to see what the new Duramax makes, GM's numbers will settle it. Either way, pick the cab, bed and trim first. Those choices did not change. Comparing brands? See the Silverado 2500HD vs Ford F-250, vs Ram 2500 and vs GMC Sierra 2500HD comparisons. Not sure a 2500 is enough? The 2500HD vs 3500HD comparison shows the step up. Thinking bigger? The 3500 HD dually guide covers the dual-rear-wheel truck, and the 2027 Duramax guide covers the diesel. What about the 2029 redesign? Reports place the all-new Silverado HD in the 2029 model year, with production starting in late 2028. Nothing beyond that has been published. The redesigned 2027 Silverado 1500 is a different truck, and our 2027 Silverado 1500 guide covers it. Common questions about the 2027 Silverado 2500HD Is the 2027 Silverado 2500HD redesigned? No. It is the current-generation truck. The cabs, trims, colors and 10-speed automatic carry over from 2026, and the change is new engine codes. A full redesign is reported for the 2029 model year. What engines does the 2027 Silverado 2500HD have? A standard gas V8 listed as L8S and an available Duramax turbo-diesel V8 listed as L6P. They replace the L8T and L5P engines in the 2026 truck. GM has not released horsepower, torque or the new Duramax's displacement. How much will the 2027 Silverado 2500HD cost? GM has not released 2027 pricing. For reference, the 2026 Silverado 2500HD starts at $45,900 for the Work Truck, excluding destination. Will the 2027 Silverado 2500HD tow more than the 2026? GM has not released 2027 towing ratings. The 2026 truck tops out at 22,050 pounds on a gooseneck or fifth-wheel hitch with the Duramax and Max Trailering Package. The 2027 engines carry new codes, so we will not assume the same number. When can I get a 2027 Silverado 2500HD? GM has not announced an on-sale date. Industry reports put the start of production in November. Call us for the latest on timing. Is a 2026 Silverado 2500HD still worth buying? Yes. It is the same body, cabs and trims as the 2027, with published ratings and prices. The reason to wait is to see what the new engines make before you choose. Not sure which truck fits your load? Bring the trailer's weight or your hauling list to George Nunnally Chevrolet at 2700 SE Moberly Ln in Bentonville and we will match it to a cab, engine and trim. Call (479) 319-2494 or contact us. Our Silverado 2500HD FAQ answers more questions.

The Short Answer The 2027 Silverado 1500 is an all-new truck. The 2026 is the current truck, available now. New for 2027: two V8s (402 and 481 horsepower), a 16.3-inch screen on every trim and seven trims instead of nine. Starting prices: $38,600 to $77,200 for the 2027, against $36,900 to $71,800 for the 2026, before destination. Buy a 2026 if you need a truck now. Wait for the 2027 if the new engines or tech are the point. If you are choosing between a 2027 and a 2026 Silverado 1500 in Rogers, Springdale, Fayetteville or Siloam Springs, here is what actually changed, what each truck costs and which one fits your timeline. Everything below comes from the published 2026 and 2027 numbers. For the 2027 in full, see the 2027 Silverado 1500 research hub. 2027 vs 2026 Silverado 1500 at a glance 2026 Silverado 1500 2027 Silverado 1500 Generation Current generation All-new redesign Trims Nine Seven Turbo four-cylinder 2.7L TurboMax, 310 hp, 430 lb-ft, 8-speed Enhanced 2.7L TurboMax, 350 hp, 455 lb-ft, 10-speed Gas V8s 5.3L (355 hp, 383 lb-ft) and 6.2L (420 hp, 460 lb-ft) New 5.7L (402 hp, 428 lb-ft) and 6.6L (481 hp, 501 lb-ft) Diesel 3.0L Duramax, 305 hp, 495 lb-ft 3.0L Duramax, 305 hp, 495 lb-ft Center screen 13.4 inches on LT and up; 7 inches on Work Truck and Custom 16.3 inches on every trim Driver display 12.3 inches on LT and up 12.2 inches on every trim Super Cruise Available on High Country Standard on High Country and ZR2; available on Silverado and Trail Boss Max towing 13,300 lb (Duramax, double cab 2WD, Max Trailering Package) 13,700 lb (5.7L V8, double cab 2WD, Max Trailering Package) Max payload 2,260 lb (2.7L, regular cab long bed 2WD) 2,340 lb (2.7L, regular cab 2WD) Starting price $36,900 to $71,800 $38,600 to $77,200 Availability Available now Expected end of 2026 All prices exclude destination, tax, title, license, dealer fees and options. Engines: two new V8s The 2027 replaces the 5.3L and 6.2L V8s with a 5.7L and a 6.6L. The 5.7L makes 402 horsepower and 428 lb-ft. The 6.6L makes 481 horsepower and 501 lb-ft, the most horsepower and torque of the gas engines. The 2.7L TurboMax also gains power, from 310 to 350 horsepower, and moves to a 10-speed automatic. The Duramax diesel carries over at 305 horsepower and 495 lb-ft. The new V8 guide covers both engines in detail, and the specs page has every figure. Towing and payload Each rating belongs to one engine and cab, so compare like with like. The 2027 tops out at 13,700 pounds with the 5.7L V8 in a double cab 2WD with the Max Trailering Package. The 2026 tops out at 13,300 pounds with the Duramax in a double cab 2WD with the same package. Max payload rises from 2,260 to 2,340 pounds, both with the 2.7L in a regular cab. The 2027 towing page breaks out every engine and cab, and the 2026 towing page does the same for the current truck. Trims and price by trim The 2026 lineup has nine trims and the 2027 has seven, so only some names line up. Where a name carries over, the starting price moved like this: Trim 2026 starting price 2027 starting price Change Work Truck $36,900 $38,600 +$1,700 Custom $42,400 $43,600 +$1,200 Custom Trail Boss $52,900 $54,400 +$1,500 High Country $62,900 $71,700 +$8,800 ZR2 $71,800 $77,200 +$5,400 The 2027 lineup also includes a Silverado trim starting at $47,900, the same starting price as the 2026 LT, and a Trail Boss at $61,200. The RST and LTZ names are not in the 2027 lineup. The 2027 trims add equipment. The 2027 High Country, for example, comes with 22-inch wheels, a panoramic sunroof and standard Super Cruise. Our 2027 trim guide shows what each one adds. Interior, tech and safety The 2026 splits its screens by trim. The 2027 puts a 16.3-inch touchscreen and a 12.2-inch driver display on every trim, and adds an 11.5-inch front passenger screen on the ZR2 and High Country. Super Cruise, which works while towing, moves from High Country only to standard on the High Country and ZR2 and available on the Silverado and Trail Boss. The 2027 also adds four standard safety features: Intersection Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking, Side Bicyclist Alert and Reverse Automatic Braking. A 34-gallon fuel tank is available on double and crew cabs. See the 2027 overview for the full lineup. Should you buy a 2026 or wait for the 2027?

Browse the 2026 Silverado 1500 guide and new Silverado 1500 inventory in Bentonville.

Power Performance Specs of the 2027 Duramax 3500 Diesel Engine Originally published March 24, 2026 · Updated September 20, 2026 2026 Silverado 3500 HD LTZ dually shown. The Duramax diesel is available on every HD trim. The Short Version "2027 Duramax" means two different engines: the 3.0L Duramax in the redesigned 2027 Silverado 1500 and the Duramax turbo-diesel V8 in the Silverado 2500 HD and 3500 HD. The 1500's 3.0L Duramax makes 305 hp and 495 lb-ft. The HD diesel gets a new code for 2027, L6P, replacing the L5P. GM has not released its displacement, horsepower or torque. For reference, the 2026 6.6L Duramax makes 470 hp and 975 lb-ft and tows up to 36,000 lb in the 3500 HD. Searches for the 2027 Duramax turn up a mix of numbers, because Chevrolet now sells two very different diesels under that name. Here is which is which, what has been released and what has not. It is the diesel behind our Silverado 3500HD trucks. The three Duramax numbers side by side Engine Truck Power Torque Status 6.6L Duramax turbo-diesel V8 (L5P) 2026 Silverado 2500 HD and 3500 HD 470 hp at 2,800 rpm 975 lb-ft at 1,600 rpm 2026 ratings Duramax turbo-diesel V8 (L6P) 2027 Silverado 2500 HD and 3500 HD Not released Not released New for 2027 3.0L Duramax turbo-diesel 2027 Silverado 1500 305 hp 495 lb-ft Released by GM Only one of the three rows is a 2027 rating, and it belongs to the half-ton truck. The HD diesel: what L6P means The 2027 ordering documents for the Silverado 2500 HD and 3500 HD list the available diesel as L6P, a Duramax turbo-diesel V8. It replaces the L5P used in the 2026 truck. The documents give no displacement, horsepower or torque, and the standard gas engine moves from L8T to L8S at the same time. A new code means GM changed the engine in some way. It does not say the engine is larger or more powerful. Industry reports have speculated about a larger displacement and GM has not confirmed it, so we would treat any 2027 number as a guess until GM releases the ratings. The 2027 Silverado 2500HD guide covers what else carries over. What the 2026 6.6L Duramax delivers Power: 470 horsepower at 2,800 rpm and 975 lb-ft of torque at 1,600 rpm. Transmission: Allison 10-speed automatic. Towing, Silverado 3500 HD: up to 36,000 pounds on a gooseneck, 32,000 on a fifth-wheel and 20,000 on a conventional hitch, with the Max Trailering Package. Towing, Silverado 2500 HD: up to 20,000 pounds conventional and 22,050 on a gooseneck or fifth-wheel, with the Max Trailering Package. Warranty: the Duramax powertrain is covered for 5 years or 100,000 miles. Fluids: the Duramax uses diesel exhaust fluid (DEF), which you keep topped up. The 2027 ordering documents tie the Max Trailering Package to the Duramax and the gooseneck/fifth-wheel prep package, the same pairing as 2026. Our 2500HD vs 3500HD comparison shows how the two trucks split those ratings. The 3.0L Duramax in the 2027 Silverado 1500 The redesigned 2027 Silverado 1500 offers a 3.0L Duramax turbo-diesel rated at 305 horsepower and 495 lb-ft of torque. It tows up to 12,000 pounds in a crew cab 4WD with the Max Trailering Package. It is not an HD engine, and it is a different engine from the 6.6L-class diesel in the 2500 HD and 3500 HD. Our 2027 Silverado 1500 towing guide and the specs page cover the 1500. Which Duramax fits your work? Daily driving and lighter trailers: the 3.0L in the 1500, up to 12,000 pounds. Heavy trailers: above the 1500's top rating of 13,700 pounds, which comes with the 5.7L V8, you are shopping a 2500 HD or 3500 HD. Gooseneck and fifth-wheel work: the 3500 HD, especially the dually, which carries the 36,000-pound rating. Not sure where your load falls? The 3500HD LTZ review and the 3500 DRW page show what the HD trucks look like, and the 3500 HD dually guide covers the towing by hitch. When will the new Duramax arrive? GM Authority reports 2027 Silverado HD production starting in November, with the Crew Cab first, and calls the dates tentative. GM has not announced when trucks reach dealers. Trucks with the 2026 Duramax are what our Bentonville, Springdale and Fayetteville pages cover today, and the chassis cab page covers work-body builds. Common questions about the 2027 Duramax What are the 2027 Duramax specs? There are two 2027 Duramax diesels. The 3.0L Duramax in the 2027 Silverado 1500 makes 305 horsepower and 495 lb-ft of torque. The Duramax in the 2027 Silverado 2500 HD and 3500 HD carries a new engine code, L6P, and GM has not released its horsepower, torque or displacement. Is the 2027 Silverado 3500 HD Duramax bigger than the 2026? GM has not said. The 2026 engine is a 6.6L V8 making 470 horsepower and 975 lb-ft. The 2027 ordering documents list a Duramax turbo-diesel V8 with a new code and no displacement, so we will not guess. What is the L6P Duramax? L6P is the 2027 engine code for the available Duramax turbo-diesel V8 in the Silverado 2500 HD and 3500 HD. It replaces the L5P used in the 2026 truck. Does the 2027 Duramax make more than 470 horsepower? That has not been announced. 470 horsepower and 975 lb-ft are 2026 ratings, and any site listing them as 2027 specs is carrying the 2026 numbers forward. How much can a Duramax Silverado 3500 HD tow? The 2026 3500 HD tows up to 36,000 pounds on a gooseneck hitch, 32,000 on a fifth-wheel and 20,000 on a conventional hitch with the Duramax and Max Trailering Package. 2027 ratings have not been released. Which 2027 Duramax should I choose? The 3.0L Duramax in the 2027 Silverado 1500 suits daily driving and trailers up to 12,000 pounds. Above the 1500's 13,700-pound top rating, you are shopping a heavy-duty truck with the 6.6L-class Duramax. Tell us what you tow and how often, and we will point you to the right engine.

2027 Chevy Silverado 3500 HD Dually at George Nunnally, NWA Originally published March 21, 2026 · Updated September 20, 2026 2026 Silverado 3500 HD dually shown. The 2027 keeps the same cabs, beds and transmission. The Short Version The 2027 Silverado 3500 HD dually is the current heavy-duty truck with new engine codes, not a redesign: the gas V8 is now listed as L8S and the Duramax turbo-diesel V8 as L6P. GM has not released 2027 towing, payload or pricing. The 2026 3500 HD tows up to 36,000 lb on a gooseneck, 32,000 lb on a fifth-wheel and 20,000 lb conventionally, with the Duramax and Max Trailering Package. The 2026 3500 HD carries up to 7,234 lb of payload and starts at $46,800 for the Work Truck. Trims are Work Truck, LT, LTZ and High Country. If you pull a gooseneck flatbed, a stock trailer or an equipment hauler around Northwest Arkansas, the 3500 HD dually is the truck you are shopping. Here is what we can say about the 2027, and the 2026 numbers that show where it stands. Our 2026 Silverado 3500HD page covers the range. What is a dually, and who needs one? A dually has dual rear wheels: four tires on the rear axle instead of two. The wider, steadier stance is what lets a 3500 HD carry and pull the heaviest loads, and it is why the top towing number belongs to the dually. The tradeoff is width: the fenders are wider, so tight lots and narrow gates take more care. Our 2026 Silverado 3500 DRW page shows current dually trucks. A dually makes sense for fifth-wheel campers, large livestock and horse trailers, equipment haulers and anyone who tows near the limit on a regular basis. If your trailer weighs well under 20,000 pounds, a single-rear-wheel 3500 HD or a 2500HD may fit better. 2027 vs 2026: what changes The 2027 ordering documents include the Silverado 3500 HD and the 3500 HD chassis cab. They carry the same cabs, beds and transmission as 2026, with new engine codes: L8S for the standard gas V8 and L6P for the available Duramax turbo-diesel V8. They replace the L8T and L5P. GM has not released horsepower, torque, displacement, towing, payload or pricing for the 2027 trucks, so any 2027 figure you see elsewhere is a 2026 number carried forward. The 2027 2500HD guide covers what carries over, and the 2027 Duramax guide covers the diesel. 2026 Silverado 3500 HD towing by hitch type Hitch type Maximum towing Configuration Gooseneck 36,000 lb Duramax, Regular Cab long bed dually 2WD, Max Trailering Package Fifth-wheel 32,000 lb Duramax dually with the Max Trailering Package Conventional 20,000 lb Duramax Gooseneck, gas 6.6L V8 19,080 lb Gas engine maximum The gross combined weight rating tops out at 43,900 pounds with the Duramax dually and Max Trailering Package. The maximum figures apply to particular cab, drive and hitch combinations, so the truck you buy may be rated lower. The 2027 ordering documents tie the Max Trailering Package to the Duramax and the gooseneck/fifth-wheel prep package. Payload and pricing Payload: up to 7,234 pounds on the 2026 3500 HD, depending on configuration. Price: the 2026 3500 HD starts at $46,800 for the Work Truck, excluding destination. That is the starting price, not the price of a Duramax dually with the higher trims. GM has not released 2027 prices. Prefer to see the trucks? The 3500HD LTZ review walks through the LTZ trim, and we have local pages for Bentonville, Springdale and Fayetteville. Camioneta 3500HD en español is also available. Trims Trim Notes Work Truck Base trim; the $46,800 starting price is for this trim LT Adds the 13.4-inch touchscreen and 12.3-inch driver display LTZ Sits between the LT and High Country; the LTZ review covers it in detail High Country Top of the lineup The ZR2 is a 2500HD trim and is not offered on the 3500 HD. Dually or chassis cab? If you plan to mount a flatbed, dump body or service body, a chassis cab is the usual starting point, and our 3500 chassis cab page shows those. If you want a factory pickup bed, you want the dually pickup above. Buy a 2026 or wait for the 2027? Buy a 2026 if you need to be pulling soon and want ratings you can check today. Wait if the engine is the deciding factor and you want to see what the new Duramax makes. Industry reports put 2027 HD production in November with no on-sale date from GM, so we would not plan a purchase around a date that has not been announced. Common questions about the 2027 Silverado 3500 HD dually Is the 2027 Silverado 3500 HD dually redesigned? No. It is the current-generation heavy-duty truck with new engine codes: L8S for the gas V8 and L6P for the Duramax diesel. A full redesign is reported for the 2029 model year. How much can the 2027 Silverado 3500 HD dually tow? GM has not released 2027 towing ratings. The 2026 3500 HD tows up to 36,000 pounds on a gooseneck hitch, 32,000 on a fifth-wheel hitch and 20,000 on a conventional hitch, all with the Duramax and Max Trailering Package. What is the difference between a dually and a single-rear-wheel 3500 HD? A dually has four tires on the rear axle instead of two. That wider, steadier stance suits the heaviest trailers and loads, and the 36,000-pound gooseneck rating is a dually figure. The tradeoff is a wider truck. Do I need the Duramax diesel to reach the maximum tow rating? For the 2026 figures, yes. The 36,000, 32,000 and 20,000-pound ratings are Duramax figures with the Max Trailering Package. With the gas V8, the 2026 3500 HD tops out at 19,080 pounds on a gooseneck. How much does the 2027 Silverado 3500 HD cost? GM has not released 2027 pricing. The 2026 Silverado 3500 HD starts at $46,800 for the Work Truck, excluding destination. Does the Silverado 3500 HD come in a ZR2? No. The ZR2 is a 2500HD trim. The 3500 HD comes as the Work Truck, LT, LTZ and High Country. Bring your trailer's loaded weight and hitch type to George Nunnally Chevrolet at 2700 SE Moberly Ln in Bentonville and we will match it to a 3500 HD. Call (479) 319-2494 or contact us.

2027 Chevrolet Camaro Release Date and Key Updates in Northwest Arkansas What is confirmed so far · Originally published May 2, 2026 · Updated September 20, 2026 The Short Answer There is no 2027 Chevrolet Camaro. Chevrolet ended Camaro production after the 2024 model year and has not announced a new one. Press reports say General Motors approved a successor, with production reported for late 2027 at the Lansing Grand River plant in Michigan. Late-2027 production would make it a 2028 model. Reports since August point to a 2029 model. Chevrolet has confirmed neither. Engine, body style, price and on-sale date are all unannounced. Nothing can be ordered or reserved yet. If you have been searching for a 2027 Camaro from Rogers, Springdale, Fayetteville or Siloam Springs, here is where things really stand: the nameplate is expected back, but Chevrolet has not put a date, a price or a spec sheet on it. This page separates what Chevrolet has said from what the automotive press has reported, and it will be updated the day that changes. Is there a 2027 Chevrolet Camaro? No. The sixth-generation Camaro, sold from the 2016 model year, ended production after 2024, and there is no 2027 model year Camaro in Chevrolet's lineup. The 2027 Camaro you see in search results is a guess at when a new one might land, and the guess has been drifting later as more reporting comes in. 2027 Camaro release date: what has been reported Everything in this table comes from press reports. None of it comes from Chevrolet. What What was reported Status Approval GM has greenlit a successor (Automotive News, April 2026) Reported Where it is built Lansing Grand River, Michigan, where the last Camaro was built Reported Production start Late 2027 Reported Model year 2028 in the April reports; some August reports say 2029 Reports disagree Platform An updated version of GM's rear-wheel-drive Alpha platform Reported Chevrolet announcement None. No reveal, no spec sheet, no pricing. Not announced The practical takeaway: even on the earliest reported schedule, a new Camaro would not reach a showroom before 2028, and the later reports push it further out. 2027 Camaro engine and specs: what we know Chevrolet has not announced a Camaro engine, horsepower figure or transmission. You will see numbers online for a "2027 Camaro SS" or a base turbo four, and every one of them is a prediction. We are not publishing any of them here. What is confirmed is the engine that press speculation keeps pointing to. Chevrolet's new 6.7L LS6 small-block V8 is in the 2027 Corvette Grand Sport, where it is rated at 535 horsepower and 520 lb-ft of torque. Whether it ever goes into a Camaro has not been announced. If you want to see what that engine does in a car you can buy, the 2027 Corvette specs and trims pages have every number. Will the new Camaro be a two-door or a four-door? Reports do not agree. Some coverage expects a traditional two-door coupe. Other reports, including the original April account, raised the possibility of a four-door body sharing its platform with a new sedan. Chevrolet has confirmed neither, so treat any body style you read as unsettled. 2027 Camaro price There is no price. Chevrolet has not released a starting MSRP, and any figure you see is an estimate. When Chevrolet publishes real pricing we will put it here, with the source. Can you order or reserve a new Camaro? Not yet. There is no order guide, no trim list and no price to order against, so there is nothing to reserve. If you want to hear the moment Chevrolet announces something, tell our team and we will contact you first. Chevrolet performance you can buy today If the reason you want a Camaro is a rear-drive V8 with real power, two options are on the road now. Corvette. The 2027 Corvette lineup runs from the Stingray to the ZR1X, and the models compared page lays out how they differ. Browse new Corvettes at our Bentonville lot. A used sixth-generation Camaro. The 2016 through 2024 cars are the ones to look at. Check our used inventory for what is on the lot this week, since selection changes daily. Bring a trade-in and we will give you a number, or start with pre-approval so you know your budget before you shop. Common questions about the 2027 Camaro Is the Camaro coming back? Reports say yes. Automotive News reported in April 2026 that GM approved a successor. Chevrolet has not made its own announcement. When will the new Camaro be released? Chevrolet has not given a date. Reports point to production starting in late 2027, which would make it a 2028 model, and some more recent reports suggest a 2029 model. Will the new Camaro have a V8? Chevrolet has not said. The V8 that press coverage mentions is the 6.7L LS6 now in the Corvette Grand Sport, but that is speculation for the Camaro. Will the new Camaro be electric? Reports expect a gas-powered, rear-wheel-drive car rather than an EV. The powertrain is unconfirmed. How much will the new Camaro cost? Nothing has been announced. We will post the price here as soon as Chevrolet publishes one. George Nunnally Chevrolet is at 2700 SE Moberly Ln in Bentonville, just off I-49. Call (479) 319-2494 or contact us and we will point you to the right car today and add you to the list for the Camaro news.

Blog Towing at Beaver Lake with the 2027 Chevy Tahoe What actually changes when you point a loaded trailer at the ramp, and which 2027 Tahoe configuration gets you there without guessing. View Tahoe Inventory Quick Answer Maximum towing is 8,400 lbs, on the 5.3L V8 with rear-wheel drive and the Max Trailering Package. Step up to the 6.2L V8, add 4WD, or choose the Duramax diesel, and the ceiling moves to 8,200 lbs. The Max Trailering Package (standard from LS up) adds the in-vehicle trailering app and up to 14 camera views for backing down a ramp. For 2027, Super Cruise with trailering is available on the diesel for the first time, not just the gas V8s. Beaver Lake has ramps at Prairie Creek, Horseshoe Bend, War Eagle and a half dozen smaller launches, and on a busy Saturday every one of them has a line of trucks and SUVs backing trailers down concrete that gets steeper than it looks from the parking lot. What actually separates a smooth launch from a stressful one has less to do with horsepower on a spec sheet and more to do with which specific Tahoe configuration you're driving, because "the Tahoe tows 8,400 lbs" is true and also not the whole answer. The Number That Matters Isn't the Headline Number Chevrolet's 8,400-lb maximum belongs specifically to the 5.3L V8, rear-wheel drive, with the Max Trailering Package, not to every Tahoe on the lot. Step up to the 6.2L V8, and the number moves to 8,200 lbs. The Duramax diesel also tops out at 8,200 lbs. Add 4WD to either engine and the same 8,200-lb ceiling applies. That's a small gap on paper, but it's the difference between a rating you can plan around and a rating you assumed. Before you shop a boat or a travel trailer against a number you saw online, confirm which drivetrain that number actually applies to, the full breakdown is on the Tahoe specs page. What 5,000-8,400 Lbs Actually Covers at This Lake A bass boat or a small pontoon, loaded with fuel and gear, typically runs well under the Tahoe's ceiling in either drivetrain configuration, that's comfortable towing, not maximum towing. A mid-size pontoon or a travel trailer built for a family of four starts to push into the range where the 200-lb gap between 8,200 and 8,400 actually matters, and where the diesel's low-end torque (495 lb-ft, more than either gas V8) makes the pull up the ramp and the merge back onto AR-12 feel less like work. If the plan is bigger than that, a large fifth-wheel or a heavy dual-axle trailer, that's honestly outside what any of the Tahoe's three engines are built for, and a heavier-duty truck is the right tool. Sustained Grades Are the Real Test, Not the Ramp The launch itself is a five-minute event. The mile of sustained climb on the interstate south of Bentonville, or the grade coming back up from the lake with a loaded trailer behind you, is where a tow rating actually gets tested, and it's where the gap between the 5.3L V8's 355 hp/383 lb-ft and the Duramax's 305 hp/495 lb-ft shows up as a real difference in how hard the engine has to work. Match the trailer to the rating you actually have, not to how the tow felt on flat pavement in the parking lot. Why the Max Trailering Package Is Worth Confirming, Not Assuming Every Tahoe from LS up ships with a Class IV hitch, but the Max Trailering Package is what gets you the 8,400-lb ceiling, the in-vehicle trailering app, and up to 14 camera views for backing a trailer down a ramp without a spotter standing in the water. For 2027, Super Cruise with trailering is also available on the diesel for the first time, which means hands-free assistance on the interstate stretch to the lake is no longer exclusive to the gas engines. Worth asking about specifically if that's part of what you're shopping for. Full trim-by-trim equipment is on the Tahoe trims page. Cargo for the Rest of the Trip Towing capacity gets the headline, but the second question every lake trip actually asks is where the cooler, life jackets and folded bimini top go once the boat's in the water. With the third row up for passengers, the Tahoe still carries 25.5 cu ft behind it, enough for a day's gear without anyone repacking the garage first, and without giving up seats to do it. Keep the Drivetrain Ready for Trailer Season A season of loaded launches and steep interstate grades is harder on a truck than daily commuting, so towing regularly is a good reason to stay ahead of the recommended service schedule rather than push it. Answers to more pricing, trim and capability questions beyond towing are on the Tahoe FAQ page. If You're Deciding Between the Tahoe and the Traverse for This The Traverse's 5,000-lb rating, properly equipped, genuinely covers a lot of the boats that go into Beaver Lake on a normal weekend, it's not a compromise choice for a smaller boat. But once you're near or past that number, the difference isn't marginal; it's the difference between towing within the rating and towing past it. The full side-by-side is on the Tahoe vs Traverse comparison. See It in Person George Nunnally Chevrolet is at 2700 SE Moberly Ln in Bentonville, a short run from I-49 and an easy stop on the way to or from the lake.

If the family outgrew a two-row crossover, the 2027 Chevrolet Traverse is where most Northwest Arkansas households land: an MSRP of $40,800, seating for up to eight, 98 cubic feet with the rear rows down, and 5,000 pounds of towing properly equipped, all on a midsize footprint that parks like a large crossover. A full-size SUV is the right call for a specific set of families, and the numbers below say exactly which ones. George Nunnally Chevrolet sells both, so this is a sizing question rather than a sales pitch: here is what each one gives you, and where the gap between them is real. The 2027 Traverse overview has the long version of the Traverse side. Quick Answer 2027 Traverse starts at an MSRP of $40,800, before the $1,995 destination charge; the 2026 Tahoe LS starts at $60,700. Traverse seats up to 8 and holds 98 cu ft maximum; Tahoe seats up to 9 and holds 122.7 cu ft. Traverse tows 5,000 lbs properly equipped, with the included trailering equipment, on LT, Z71 and RS. EPA combined: 22 mpg front-drive Traverse against 17 mpg for a 5.3L V8 rear-drive Tahoe, per fueleconomy.gov. Both carry the same 17.7-inch diagonal touchscreen as standard equipment. The matchup at a glance What you are comparing 2027 Traverse 2026 Tahoe Starting MSRP from $40,800 from $60,700 Engine 2.5L turbocharged four, 328 hp and 326 lb-ft 5.3L EcoTec3 V8, 355 hp and 383 lb-ft Seating 7, or 8 on the LT Up to 9, with the front bench on the LS Maximum cargo volume 98 cu ft 122.7 cu ft EPA combined 22 mpg front-drive, 21 all-wheel drive 17 mpg, 5.3L V8 rear-drive Touchscreen 17.7-inch diagonal, standard 17.7-inch diagonal, standard Maximum towing 5,000 lbs properly equipped, with the included trailering equipment, on LT, Z71 and RS Body-on-frame, built around heavier trailers Every Traverse figure above is on the 2027 Traverse specs page with its configuration attached, and the full spec-for-spec version of this matchup lives on Chevy Tahoe vs Traverse. Where the Traverse wins for a growing family Three places, and they are the three a family actually feels. The price of entry. Nearly twenty thousand dollars separates the two starting points, and another eight hundred separates the destination charges. That gap buys a lot of car seats, or it moves you from a base full-size to a well-equipped midsize with hands-free highway driving. The trims page lays out what each step up the Traverse range adds and who it suits. The fuel bill. Five miles per gallon combined is not a rounding difference over a school year. Northwest Arkansas runs almost all of its north-south traffic through one interstate corridor, and a family doing the I-49 commute plus two round trips a week to practice is living in the combined number, not the highway one. The footprint. Six and a half inches shorter and nearly six inches narrower with the mirrors out sounds academic until you are backing into a parking deck on a Saturday, or squeezing past a row of parked cars near the Razorback Regional Greenway trailheads. It is also the difference between fitting a single garage bay comfortably and folding the mirrors every night. The Traverse research hub collects the rest of the detail if you want to go deeper on any one of those three. Where the Tahoe wins Three places, and all three are real. Volume. 122.7 cubic feet against 98 with the rows down. If you routinely travel seven-up with luggage for a week, the Tahoe carries it and the Traverse asks you to pack tighter or use a roof box. The ninth seat. The Tahoe LS offers seating for up to nine with its front bench. The Traverse tops out at eight. Heavy trailers. The Tahoe is body-on-frame, and its standard 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 makes 355 horsepower and 383 lb-ft. That architecture is what a large travel trailer or a car hauler is built around, and it is the reason the answer flips to full-size once the trailer goes past what the Traverse is rated for. The honest tie Two things people expect to differ and do not. Seven or eight seats. Both do it. The Traverse LT with the second-row bench seats eight, the same as most Tahoe trims. If the requirement is eight belts rather than nine, this is not a reason to spend twenty thousand dollars more. Third-row access. Row two slides forward on every Traverse with the child seat left in place, so getting a kid into row three does not mean dismantling the middle of the car. That is the mechanism that decides whether row three gets used on a school morning, and it is present on the trim with the $40,800 starting MSRP. The service schedule is the same across the range too, which keeps the running cost predictable whichever trim you land on. The screen. A 17.7-inch touchscreen with Google built-in is standard on all four Traverse trims. It is the same size the Tahoe LS carries. The local math Here is what this looks like on a real Northwest Arkansas week. Two adults, three kids, an I-49 commute from Rogers or Springdale, a Saturday at Arvest Ballpark, and a boat that goes in the water from May through September. The same picture holds for a family running US-412 in from Siloam Springs or the interstate up from Fayetteville. The boat is a bass boat or a small pontoon, so loaded on its trailer it stays under the Traverse's 5,000-pound properly-equipped rating. That family is a Traverse family, and the money left over covers the all-wheel drive and the Super Cruise plan. Change one variable, a travel trailer heavier than the Traverse's 5,000-pound rating, and the answer flips to full-size. The trailer is what decides this, not the number of kids. And weigh the trailer loaded rather than empty, because the long climbs on the interstate south of Fayetteville ask far more of a drivetrain than a flat test tow suggests. So which one should you buy? Your situation Buy this Three kids, a carpool, a commute, no trailer Traverse LT with all-wheel drive, from $42,800 Same, plus a bass boat or a small pontoon Traverse Z71, from $49,100, for the twin-clutch all-wheel drive on a wet ramp An hour of interstate every day Traverse RS, from $55,800, with standard hands-free Super Cruise A travel trailer over the 5,000-pound properly-equipped rating Tahoe, for the body-on-frame platform Nine people, regularly Tahoe LS with the front bench See every 2027 Traverse in stock Book a test drive How to settle it in one afternoon Drive both back to back on the same afternoon. The size difference reads as a rounding error on paper and is obvious from the driver's seat inside two miles, and it is the only part of this decision a table cannot settle. Bring the car seats. Two things worth doing first: start a pre-approval so you know your terms before you pick a trim, and get the trade appraised, because on a twenty-thousand-dollar spread the trade often decides which side of it you land on. Questions we get on this one Is the Traverse big enough for three car seats? Yes. Second-row shoulder room is 62.2 inches, within a tenth of an inch of the front row, and Smart Slide seats let you reach row three without pulling a seat out. Order the LT with the second-row bench and you get an eighth belt. When is a trailer too heavy for a Traverse? Above 5,000 pounds. That is the rating on the LT, Z71 and RS, properly equipped with the included trailering equipment, and past it a body-on-frame full-size is the right vehicle. The full Tahoe vs Traverse comparison works through the rest of it. Does the Traverse cost less to service than a full-size SUV? It runs a four-cylinder rather than a V8, on the same 7,500-mile oil and rotation schedule, and the first maintenance visit is covered by Chevrolet inside the first year. Warranty terms run 3 years or 36,000 miles bumper-to-bumper and 5 years or 60,000 miles on the powertrain. Which Traverse trim has hands-free driver assistance? Two of the four: the RS and the High Country include it as standard equipment for 2027, each with a 3-year OnStar Super Cruise plan. It is available elsewhere in the lineup. Where can I see both in Rogers or Springdale? Both are on the lot at George Nunnally Chevrolet, 2700 SE Moberly Ln, a short run down the interstate and not much further from Siloam Springs.
