We Test ECOTRIC Roof Rack for Chevy Traverse: Worth It?
We Test ECOTRIC Roof Rack for Chevy Traverse: Worth It?
After spending two weeks with the ECOTRIC Roof Rack Cross Bars on our 2015 Chevy Traverse, we’re impressed by their performance. These bars fit perfectly on our vehicle, just as advertised for the 2009-2017 Traverse models. Installation was straightforward, taking us about 30 minutes without any specialized tools.
The 165-pound weight capacity proved sufficient for our testing, easily handling our kayaks and cargo box during a weekend getaway. We appreciated the minimal wind noise compared to our previous aftermarket rack.
What really stands out is the value proposition – these racks function almost identically to the OEM options (they’re compatible with GM part 19244268) but at a significantly lower price point. The aluminum construction feels sturdy and has withstood several rainstorms without showing signs of corrosion.
Are they worth it? If you need reliable roof storage for your Traverse without breaking the bank, our answer is yes.
