MUSCAT -- Chevrolet Traverse is associated with exciting offers this Ramadhan. A promotion scheme was launched by the OTE Group recently offering free registration, free maintenance for 3 years / 30000 kms, free 5 years/100000 km extended warranty, free sun film installation, free 500 litres of petrol, free gift and much more apart from a very attractive price.

In the Middle East, Chevrolet has a strong heritage stretching back around eight decades. Today Chevrolet brings the most comprehensive range of value vehicles to customers, offering superlative excitement, strong personality, value for money, safety and security from a brand that has long been a trusted partner in the region.

Chevrolet Traverse brings the brand's expressive styling and advanced technology and places it firmly at the heart of this fast-growing segment. The flush grille is bisected by the company's iconic cross bar, while the signature gold Chevrolet bowtie takes pride of place in the centre. Taut body lines and minimal overhangs convey the image of a smaller vehicle, reinforcing the Traverse's feeling of a large vehicle that drives smaller.

Traverse's interior continues the attractive styling and close attention to detail of the exterior, and also brings a host of features and cutting edge technology that are only usually available in more expensive luxury SUVs. Middle East customers in particular will appreciate the cabin's tasteful design, as well as the outstanding quality and workmanship of the materials used.

The driver's cabin is characterised by a dual-cockpit design -- a hallmark of Chevrolet's heritage -- that creates a sleek, highly detailed appearance as it flows across the door panels. The dashboard is mounted in a "low and away" position that improves outward visibility and creates a feeling of openness. The instrument panel houses a pair of large gauge binnacles that are accented with bright trim rings, while the integrated navigation system screen, is displayed prominently at the upper end of the centre console.

The Traverse's interior can be configured up to adults. The third-row can accommodate two adults while simultaneously providing generous storage space behind. Perforated leather seats are also available.

Chevrolet Traverse is powered by a 3.6-litre, V6 engine with direct injection, which offers a satisfying balance of great performance and fuel efficiency. This unit generates a segment-leading 288 hp at 6,300 rpm and produces 366 Nm of torque at 3,400 rpm. The engine is mated to the Hydra-Matic 6T75, six-speed automatic gearbox, an advanced transmission with clutch-to-clutch shifting. This combination allows the Traverse to offer unsurpassed combined cycle fuel efficiency figures of 10.9 l/100 km in the all-wheel drive model.

OTE Group is the exclusive dealer for Chevrolet in Oman with 14 showrooms spread across the Sultanate and offering excellent after-sales service support on par with global standards, with a nationwide service network.
