Traction is the first album by New Zealand rock band Supergroove. It was released in 1994 by RCA Records[1], debuting at number one on the New Zealand albums chart and quickly reached platinum status there.[2] Before the band could record their second album, Che Fu was fired from the band.[1] Supergroove would end up releasing their second and final album, Backspacer, without Fu. To date, the album has achieved the requirements for platinum status five times over.[3]

The album won Best Album at the 1995 New Zealand Music Awards.[2]
