Oshawa, Ontario (September 27, 2021) — The 2022 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban will offer new features and additional technology, including more mechanical options, infotainment improvements and additional standard active safety features.

“The Tahoe and Suburban are the perfect vehicles for Canadians, offering advanced technology, ample space and an unrivaled driving experience,” said Michael MacPhee, brand director for Chevrolet Canada. “These popular SUVs have further evolved for the 2022 model year to offer more power and more technology. giving customers more choice.”

Expanded 6.2L V8 engine availability and new eLSD option
For customers looking for power, the popular 6.2L V8 engine rated at 420 hp is now available on the RST, Z71 and Premier. The 6.2L engine is standard on the High Country. This engine comes with dual exhaust and features Dynamic Fuel Management technology, designed to optimize engine efficiency across a broad range of driving conditions, including when towing a trailer. Magnetic Ride Control is standard on Premier and High Country and available on RST and Z71.

The 5.3L V-8 remains the standard engine on LS, LT, Z71, RST and Premier models. The optional Duramax 3.0L Turbo-Diesel is available on all models except Z71. All engines are mated to a standard 10-speed automatic transmission with push-button electronic shift.

New for 2022, the available electronic limited slip differential (eLSD) draws on sports car DNA to deliver improved driving performance in a full-size SUV. If wheel slip is detected on either side of the vehicle, eLSD reacts quickly to shift power to the wheel with better traction. That additional traction can contribute to increased driver confidence in difficult types of terrain and weather conditions. Exclusively available on the off-road focused Z71 trim, eLSD also can be used in 4WD Low to help prevent wheelslip in dirt and mud.

Enhanced trailering technology and larger driver information cluster
For 2022, Tahoe and Suburban will now offer up to 13 available, unique camera views¹, including transparent trailer view, that helps you virtually “see through” a connected, compatible trailer when your truck is properly equipped. Additional new trailering views include a rear trailer view with reverse guidelines, a picture-in-picture side view, and a view inside a trailer when an accessory camera is connected. All of these features were developed with the help of GM’s Canadian Technical Centre engineers.

A new, larger 12.3-inch-diagonal configurable digital instrument cluster is now standard on 2022 Tahoe and Suburban for LT trims and above. With four user-selectable layouts, this cluster allows drivers to (customize or personalize) display information in the way most comfortable for them during short trips or a long family adventure.

Seamless infotainment system with Google built-in²

Today’s modern drivers increasingly expect seamless integration between their personal tech and vehicles. With Google built-in compatibility, available on trims LT and above, drivers will have access to Google Assistant, Google Maps and Google Play right on the vehicle display. This experience works with Android Auto^TM3 and Apple CarPlay⁴ capability and offers new levels of customization and flexibility for customers.

Rather than connect a smartphone and project onto the centre screen, select Google apps and services are integrated into the vehicle’s hardwire. Users have access to Google Assistant, Google Maps, and in-vehicle applications on Google Play. 2022 Tahoe and Suburban customers will be able to control vehicle functions by voice or the steering wheel, including:

Phone calls and messaging (SMS), when compatible phone paired

Safety is an important consideration for many Tahoe and Suburban customers.

The 2022 models have two active safety features now standard across all trims: Front and Rear Park Assist and Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning.

Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning uses a brief, gentle steering wheel turn to alert you when you may be unintentionally drifting out of detected lane lines. It is part of a suite of six standard active safety features called Chevrolet Safety Assist on every trim for 2022 Tahoe and Suburban. In addition to Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Chevrolet Safety Assist also includes:

Automatic Emergency Braking

Front Pedestrian Braking

Forward Collision Alert
