The Suburban is one of those vehicles that all of
us here at Chuck Hutton Chevy of Memphis have a lot of respect and
reverence for: makes such as this on the larger side that can transport and
haul have won over customers in high volumes. A prototype for the redesigned Chevy Suburban has recently been spotted and shown to us by the
good folks on staff at Motorauthority.com, and they now make
public a few different clues about what we can expect from the upcoming
full-sized SUV.
Chevy is now in the process of completely
redesigning the models from its full-size fleet around the T1 body-on-frame
platform for incoming SUVs and pickups. This platform is the result of
continuous evolution of the existing K2 design, and rightfully exchanges steel
for aluminum in the ever-important quest to shed weight. This may result in the
ultimate shedding of close to 300 pounds, and the T1 platform made its debut
last year in the 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500. There is a lot
of camouflage gear on this prototype spotted lately, but the design of the
face looks to have a lot of similarities from the latest Silverado truck.
The angle of the C-pillar can also be made out
through the camouflage gear, as well as the namesake graphic located on the
taillights. You can also clearly see that there is an independent rear
suspension instead of the current model's solid unit, and this should greatly
improve all aspects of the ride. When it comes to models that are slated to
arrive soon, we are always on the lookout for what engines will be on board.
Everyone who wants to be in the know is curious as to what power sources will
be at the helm, and as far as the Suburban it looks like Chevy's new 2.7-liter
turbocharged inline-4 could be a contender, as it as already been announced for the Silverado.
A 5.3-liter V-8 would be another very sensible
offering, possibly even with the more advanced Dynamic Fuel Management cylinder
deactivation technology that can take action and regulate the firing of the
engine between its 8 respective cylinders. At the very top of the range would
reside the 6.2-liter V-8 with 420 horsepower, and 460 pound-ft of torque that
is currently available in the Suburban RST trim. One of the coolest models ever
after taking a solid look back in time is the 1964 Chevy Suburban Carryall: we
love everything about the grille, solid-bodied-stance, and ready-to-conquer
essence of this large-sized blast from the past. The Premiere Plus version has
always had the pleasure of sitting at the top of the line comfortably: It is
the upper-level addition that provides for you sported standard cross rails,
chrome power steps, chrome exhaust tips, and the new polished 22-inch wheels!
