We have an OEM style of hitch solution for your 2020 Chevy Traverse that is going to cost much less than a dealer option and will be just as strong with the Curt hitch part # CU29FR. This hitch hides behind the access panel of your rear fascia just like the OEM hitch does and has plenty of towing capacities. I attached an install video for you to check out too.

For trailer wiring then you'd want the OEM style 7-way part # 118287 which easily installs by simply plugging into a port at the rear of the vehicle. I attached an install video for this as well.

If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
