2024 Chevy Tahoe Refresh Prototype Spotted Undergoing Testing


Caught testing on public roads, the 2024 Tahoe is quite obviously sporting a new front fascia and revised rear fascia, both of which are covered in thick camouflage for this prototype model. It appears to have shown its face in the wild in the sporty RST trim, and the front end sports numerous camo cutouts that suggest a front facing camera and GM Super Cruise Semi-autonomous driver assist.

Last year, the Tahoe’s sales numbers rose more than 20 percent from 2020. This year’s model boasts responsive powertrains, a distinctive exterior design, and a spacious interior. It remains related to the Silverado in many ways, including riding fully on an independent suspension. It boasts a distinctive exterior design and spacious cabin that is ideal for hauling cargo and families. 


The 6.2-liter V8 engine is now available on the Z71, RST, and Premier trims, and we are certain you’re going to immediately love this large-sized and always-ready SUV. The LT trim and above now have a standard 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, and Google Assistant will help navigate to any destination. This year’s Tahoe also comes with front and rear park assist, standard lane keep assist with lane departure warning, Buckle to Drive seatbelt reminder, and up to 13 available camera views to ensure maximum safety.

During the Motor Trend team’s in-depth testing for the 2022 model, they were impressed with its optional air spring and magnetic shock combo suspension setup as well as the extra goodies included with the Z71 off-road package. You can now obtain the lethal 6.2-liter V8 at this trim level, and it also throws in the electronic limited-slip differential that will provide better torque management and ability to drive with pure confidence. RWD is standard and 4WD is optional, and the engine produces 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque, with the maximum towing stat residing at 8,300 lbs when equipped with RWD.

2022 Chevy Tahoe will Haul Your Family, Brandish Huge Cargo Hold, Exude Higher-End Style


One thing that we can say for sure about our awesome 2022 lineup here at Chuck Hutton of Memphis is that the brand-new Chevy Tahoe is a vehicle that brandishes awesome capability and still has an extreme amount of versatility despite its size. It was just overhauled for 2021, but the bow tie brand is working to make the Tahoe more appealing and top-of-the-line by the day.

The brand-new model now has a larger 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster on most trims, front and rear parking sensors, lane-keeping assist standard across the range. The off-road-ready Z71 models now provide an electronic limited-slip rear differential option, a few new awesome exterior colors, and the high and mighty 6.2-liter V8 engine. You can now obtain the awesome powertrain in the RST, Z71, and Premier trims. 

The Tahoe always feels bigger behind the wheel than its competitors, and it provides a nice sense of power and added stature on the road. There is a huge allotment of room in all three rows, ensuring every passenger along for the ride will be comfortable. The sliding and reclining second-row seats offer plenty of support for long trips and the optional dual 12.6-inch infotainment screens will keep passengers behind you entertained with their own choice of DVD or gaming distraction. 


There is now 25.5 cubic feet of cargo hold behind the third row, and after dropping the split power-folding backrest, it increases to 72.6 cubes worth of valuable travel space. If you want to fold down the second-row chairs, you’ll be up to 122.9 cubic feet, which is more cargo-hauling room than the Ford Expedition Max. The Premier trim level offers brushed-metal brightwork to visually up the ante, and all of the climate controls are easy to use and within the driver’s reach. 

The infotainment system has a huge range of Google services including the all-important Play store as well as apps for current news, vital navigation, and podcasts. The 10-speed transmission decidedly makes the Tahoe the confident yet serene current model it is. With the 6.2-liter engine, this 4-wheel drive example is rated to haul up to 8,400 pounds when properly equipped. An excellent option that nails the fundamentals needed for today’s serious drivers, the Tahoe is well-rounded and armed with amenities to satisfy even the choosiest driver!

2022 Chevy Tahoe and Suburban Top Trim Levels Coming With Brand-New Power-Sliding Console


The 2022 Chevy Tahoe and 2022 Chevy Suburban will be arriving soon, bringing along with them XXL-sized excitement, amazing practicality, and a strong sense of American-made pride. There is nothing more fun than new features, and this star-studded pair will come with a power-sliding center console included with the top trim models. 

This awesome addition to the lineup was first introduced in 2021 and can slide forward and backward up to ten inches. This gives you the ability to slide back and give passengers in the rear cupholders or slide forward to give first-row passengers an ideal armrest. From a recent graduate to the growing family, everyone can benefit from a secure place to keep items out of sight. The power-sliding console works like a snap, and there is no way to move the console forward unless you are in accessory mode or engine on mode. All you have to do is tap the button just above the SUV’s rear view mirror to take advantage! 


The 2022 Tahoe is spacious, well-equipped, and has great engine choices along with a 12-inch digital driver information display that now becomes standard, as well as the Buckle to Drive feature added. Enhanced Trailer View is now offered in the two upper trims, and RST trim is offered with a new Sport Performance package. Kelley Blue Book named it as one of the Best Family Cars of 2021 for its body-on-frame construction that offers class-leading towing abilities and an independent suspension for a smooth ride!

The 2022 Suburban now has a standard digital gauge cluster on most trims, and the powerful 6.2-liter V8 is available on RST, Z71, and Premier trims. You’ll be enjoying the all-around productivity and convenience of Google Assistant during each drive, and there are up to 13 available camera views to keep you safe and alert you of your surroundings.

Both vehicles are great for anyone who is looking to haul camping gear or passengers, and a class-leading and responsive drivetrain make them the perfect fit for any driver!

2021 Chevy Suburban and Tahoe Deemed by Cars.com as “Full of Refinement and the Good Stuff”

Auto expert Kelsey Mays of Cars.com was impressed right off the bat last week with the Chevy Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 for their overall capability and drivetrain refinement. The new Suburban sports a tall grille bisected by twin crossbars with the traditional Chevy bowtie stamped on. The C-shaped and piped lighting elements provide a bit more in the ways of looks then they do on Chevy pickups, and the best news comes inside! The dashboard in the Suburban is more low-set than what resides in the Silverado and has a very open design with offset controls on different layers and a standard 10-inch touchscreen presiding above.

The second row can upgrade to dual 12.6-inch touchscreens that have the ability to stream independent content from any type of mobile device. With a longer wheelbase and new multilink independent rear suspension, both the Suburban and Tahoe now gain a bit of valuable legroom in the second and third rows, as well as cargo room for the long hauls you may have planned for the spring and summer months. Taking a closer look at the Tahoe, it now gains 40 percent more legroom and 66 percent more cargo room behind the third row.

We recognize here at Chuck Hutton Chevy of Memphis that right now the Ford Expedition is the class leader in this third-row space category, and it's one of the reasons we have made such great strides to catch up! In both the Suburban and Tahoe there are now completely adjustable second-row seats, a feature that helps greatly on long trips and when dealing with getting perfectly comfortable and creating more (or less) room when needed.
In another feature from the knowledgeable and savvy Cars.com folks, they had a massive appreciation for the current year model for the indented headlights and split-level grill that are similar to what is seen on the Silverado 1500 pickup. We agree wholeheartedly with this editorial team when they claim that the pair looks just as massive as ever, with the Tahoe's longer wheelbase and extra length making it look almost as big as the Suburban. Writer Aaron Bragman even went as far as to say that “Their styling might be the best thing in the Chevy showroom, with interiors that demonstrate the best in packaging innovation”.

He also concluded that the interior of both is superior to that of the crosstown rival found in the Ford Expedition, especially on the RST trim and above. The switch to independent rear suspension now allows for a lower load floor and mounting point for the third-row seats and the packaging overall for both is more appealing and comfortable than ever before. Changes to both of these vehicles were due to customer feedback about a few necessary tweaks, and since we hastily listened and re-evaluated our stance, we are confident that this pair is scorchingly better than ever before!

2021 Chevy Suburban and Tahoe Tightly Clinch “Bigger and Better” Promise


Here at Chuck Hutton Chevy of Memphis, it is finally the time of year where thoughts of egg nog, classics on YouTube such as “Frosty the Snowman”, and cherishing loved ones visiting from out of state are on our minds. This is when many customers come to us and ask about various details and features of upcoming models, and begin to wonder which SUV, sedan, or truck would be ideal for them. We were lucky enough to see an all-new Silverado for the 2019 model year, and now it's time for our large-size SUVs to follow suit and offer up the best in what buyers want for new features. 
The 2021 Chevy Suburban and Tahoe will both have new LED lights standard on front and rear, along with 18-inch wheels. There will be 9 exterior colors to choose from, and the Suburban's wheelbase is now stretched 4.1 inches and is 1.3 inches longer overall. The Tahoe sees its wheelbase expand by an extra 4.9 inches, and overall length grows by 6.7 inches. Both SUVs are all brand-new underneath, and there is a huge upgrade in the form of a multi-link, independent rear suspension. With the solid axle no longer being in place, the ride should now be noticeably smoother no matter what terrain is at hand. 

For the brand new Tahoe, cargo space behind the third row now increases by 66 percent, and there is 122.9 cubic feet of storage total. The incoming Suburban gains 19 percent in back for total cargo capacity of 144.7 cubic feet. Now both models feature sliding second-row seats that provide much easier access to the back. When you are looking closely at a vehicle that can carry more passengers than average, one of the things on buyers' holiday wish lists was displays: as many as five displays are available on both of these models, and among them is a standard-issue 10-inch infotainment screen that is now the largest in the segment. 
It wasn't that many years ago when hauls that took the family out of town required books and board games to keep those on board entertained. While those options are still a great way to keep people occupied, we all know that the “screen has become king” as far as the long drives are concerned. Rear-seat passengers can also now enjoy two 12.6-inch LCD displays, allowing those not having to navigate the road freedom to enjoy their favorite means of digital downtime. The brand-new 3.0-liter Duramax turbo-diesel inline 6 joins the ranks of the engines options list, cranking out 277 hp and 460 lb-ft of torque. When the urge to take a holiday test drive overcomes you, don't forget to inquire about the High Country models: this top-of-the-line trim offers the most distinct grille we've ever seen, and 22-inch wheels that are  the best automotive “Holiday tree trimming treat” we've seen!

2021 Chevy Tahoe and Suburban Both Slated for Debut December 10

This is most definitely the time of year when we realize how difficult it seems to be patient. Even adults can have a hard time anticipating the holidays, and it's not just the presents that will see themselves under the Christmas tree: many of us just can't wait for some extra downtime to rest! There will be new movies to choose from in the Netflix and Disney + cues, tempting sweets all over the house, and holiday music warming up the rooms. Just this past week, Jacob Oliva of Motor1.com had some good news for those feeling impatient this season: those waiting on the next-generation releases for the Chevy Suburban and Tahoe will officially not have to wait much longer!

According to a new report from GM Authority, December 10th will be the date when customers  will be able to feast their eyes on this high-riding pair. They both will be riding on indpendent rear suspension setup, providing the ability to offer better ride quality as well as more rear space. Permanently departing from a live axle setup also benefits handling. When it comes to the exterior, GM Authority reported that both SUVS will have a new fascia and lighting, as well as new front air curtains that will help with fuel efficiency.
The Tahoe and Suburban are also expected to ride on the GM T1 ladder-frame platform, which is used on the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra. This will deliver all-new underpinnings and engineering, and the new Tahoe will be as much as 300 pounds lighter as the outgoing model. There will be the introduction of the 3rd-generation Chevy infotainment system, as well as a noticeable boost in comfort and luxury during every ride. The new Tahoe will also see the new “Super Cruise” semi-autonomous driving feature, which allows the driver to remove their hands from the steering wheel during long periods of highway driving.
As far as the all-important engine expectations, the 2021 Tahoe and Suburban are expected to have the turbocharged 2.7-liter inline 4-cylinder, and the heftier naturally-aspirated 5.3-Liter L84 V8. One of our neighboring states that has plenty of open Tundra and red rock to
conquer, Texas itself may even pass a petition to make the Suburban the National Vehicle of
Texas, as shown here! There are more than 200,000 Suburbans on the road in the Lone Star
State, and one is sold every hour and a half. Everyone here at Chuck Hutton of Memphis
believes that Tennessee is a great state for the Suburban and Tahoe to traverse as well:
rugged landscapes, grade A sunsets, and plenty of unconquered terrain lie ahead for any
brave new large SUV owner to tackle!

Chevy's 2018 Grand Slam Plan: 6.2-liter Tahoe + Souped-up Suburban



From barbecue and blues to family gatherings and Graceland, everyone in Memphis is excited about the arrival of spring. In many ways, there is no better time to get rid of "dead weight", and trade in a car that you were tiring of for something a bit sleeker. This year Chevy announced RST packages for the Tahoe and Suburban that would make the oversize and bulky presence of these vehicles feel a bit more stylish, and you're gonna love the result. The Rally Sport Truck package begins with you picking out which of four awesome exterior colors suits you: White, Black, Silver Ice and Tungsten are the current choices.

A few of the major changes are carried out with the door handles and grille surround: they are replaced with body-color pieces, and gloss-black treatment is applied to a few other key areas. The grille, roof rails, window trim, mirror caps, and bow-tie emblems are covered to emulate a different, much more up-to-date feel. 22-inch wheels with a wider twin-spoke pattern are wrapped with 285/45 Bridgestone Dueler H/L tires, which we sincerely hope that you put to the test on a seasonable rip through Shelby Farms or any of the numerous open spaces along the Memphis Riverfront. Many car enthusiasts pass up the Suburban because of its overpoweringly extra rear-length distinction, and a few choice trimmings were added this year with that aspect in mind.

An optional performance package is offered only for the Tahoe, and it is perfect for the individual seeking to add a bit of bang to an already stellar vehicle. If you have been having repeated vivid dreams of lurching through dirt trails with ease and trading the confines of the office for the welcoming and wild road, you're bound to get pretty excited about what this entails. The GM's 6.2-liter V-8 and new 10-speed automatic transmission are going to assure that you won't be idle for more than the necessary second to enjoy a breathtaking view. The Magnetic Ride Control suspension is specifically calibrated to keep the Tahoe at a safe level while barking around corners as fast as you wish.

The upgrades that have been made here are in place to appeal to a younger demographic, and we firmly believe that they will. You can also revel in an optional upgrade that will get the loud-piping hot crowd excited: a factory Borla exhaust that adds further 7 to 10 horsepower for the rear wheels. As far as the boat and camper crowd are concerned, the two rating for the Tahoe RST is 8400 pounds, which will easily drag anyone's fun-loving power set righteously out of any trouble. Neither of these are limited edition models, and this fall is when the pricing structure and cosmetic packages will be a bit less of a mystery on the lots. Everyone here at Chuck Hutton in Memphis is excited to help you get the vehicle of your dreams, and make sure that any of your pressing spring expedition ideas enthusiastically see the light of day.
