Here at Chuck Hutton of Memphis during these amazing late and very warm spring days, we savor every single customer interaction: we get to learn about the fun activities you all are going to do now that the weather is nicer and assist with you in finding the perfect vehicle for your needs. Two vehicles now coming in hot and looking to be equipped nicely for the weekend family outing has even another great thing going for them, as the 2023 Chevy Tahoe and Suburban full-size SUVs are the latest vehicles to get the GM Super Cruise hands-free driver-assist system.
Chevy had confirmed to us officially the availability of Super Cruise for the two SUVs in a press release Friday, and it’s an incredibly game-changing technology: it can completely control braking, acceleration, and steering on specific stretches of highway that have been pre-mapped. It also uses a complex driver-monitoring system to always be 100% sure that you are keeping your eyes properly on the road. GM had officially announced in March that there will be a total of 22 vehicles with some form of Super Cruise coming in for the 2023 model year, ushering highway driving into a completely new and futuristic era.
As time progresses, GM has plans to introduce a more advanced system for this called Ultra Cruise, assisting with some of the minor limitations drivers undergo with Super Cruise. The current Super Cruise feature is limited to about 200,000 miles of highway in the U.S. and Canada that are now sufficiently mapped, but the plan is implemented to use a door-to-door system in the future that will be functional on all paved public roads in the U.S. and Canada, as well as allowing hands-free operation during driving.
The 2023 Chevy Tahoe now enters its third model year after undergoing a complete redesign that left it with more passenger room, added ride comfort, and a wider array of new tech features. Most are expecting the Tahoe to come with a standard 355-horsepower 5.3-liter V8, with the option to upgrade to either a 277-hp 6-cylinder turbodiesel or a 420-hp 6.2-liter V8. Each of these engines comes with a 10-speed automatic transmission, which provides very smooth and rapid shifting during any driving conditions.
The 2023 Chevy Suburban will be enticing drivers and enjoying XXL status during its third year of production for the generation, based on the new T1 platform. This provides a great balance between comfort and utility, and each version comes standard with independent rear suspension, drastically improving the ride quality and vital cargo capacity. Three rows of seats are standard, with a capacity to have 8 on board comfortably. The front seats are massively supportive, allowing you to stretch out for the long haul and enjoy world-class space. Some of the best additional options here are a panoramic sunroof, a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, a 10-speaker sound system, and dual 12.6-inch touchscreens.
