OSHAWA, Ont (Wednesday, November 29, 2023) – Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban launch in late 2024 with fresh designs inside and out, a more powerful diesel engine option and new technology enhancements designed to provide greater confidence and security behind the wheel.

“Canadian customers have loved the Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban for decades,” said James Hodge, Chevrolet Canada director. “The updates to the 2025 full-size SUVs in design, engineering and technology will continue to make these vehicles a strong option for our customers whether it’s for towing, family road trips or overall versatility.”

Chevrolet’s full-size SUVs are truly designed and engineered for its customers. The new 2025 Tahoe and Suburban are no exception; key highlights and features include:

• Freshened exterior design with bolder signature lighting and all-new lighting animations, new available 24-inch wheels and more
• New interior design centered on an all-new best-in-segment⁴ 17.7-inch-diagonal central touchscreen¹, along with an enhanced High Country interior and additional refinements across the lineup
• New, available second-generation 3.0L turbo-diesel Duramax engine with GM-estimated 10 percent more horsepower than current models
• Ride and handling enhancements engineered for greater driving refinement
• Enhanced connectivity services*, including Connected Cameras² capability that utilizes a fully integrated network of cameras to allow customers to remotely view the interior and exterior of their vehicle through the myChevrolet mobile app³, in addition to recording certain types of events like a detected crash or theft alarm trigger. Select subscriptions required to access Connected Camera capabilities. Some features may not be available at vehicle launch and may be added through a software update.

More curb appeal

The 2025 Tahoe and Suburban will feature a new look, framed by a fresh front-end design that’s distinguished with new, bolder lighting. All six trims — LS, LT, RST, Z71, Premier and High Country — receive a new front fascia, with select trims offering unique design cues. The Z71 — one of the nameplates’ fastest-selling trims — incorporates skid plates and a high-approach front fascia, while the High Country leans in on a sport-luxury theme, with a sophisticated balance of black and Galvano chrome trim.

Additional refinements contribute to a stronger, more planted stance that appears more confident, while new 24-inch wheel designs, available for the first time on RST and High Country, further contribute to the Tahoe and Suburban’s fresh style.

New front and rear lighting also elevate the SUVs’ sophisticated design, with innovative technology delivered in a more refined package. Highlights include:

• More integrated appearance of the daytime running lights (DRLs), with a thinner yet more prominent look of the top DRL, thanks to an angled prism within the lighting signature that creates bold illumination in a sleek housing
• The more prominent lighting signature gives the vehicles a greater sense of personality, with the Premier and High Country trims further distinguished with standard welcome and walk-away lighting animations as well as animated swipe turn signals
• Dual C-shaped light designs maintain the family appearance seen in other Chevrolet vehicles

Along with their new look and lighting, the 2025 Tahoe and Suburban also introduce two new exterior colours: Cypress Grey and Lakeshore Blue Metallic.

Revamped, tech-focused interior

The new Tahoe and Suburban feel airier and more spacious, with a revamped interior that emulates the technology focus of other recently introduced Chevrolet models. Sweeping lines and lowering the instrument panel increase the perceived space for driver and front row passenger.

Display screens are the centerpiece of the cabin, starting with an all-new standard 17.7-inch-diagonal freeform infotainment¹ screen paired with the 11-inch diagonal driver information center.

The screen is canted slightly toward the driver, for a more commanding feeling of control, while still prioritizing easy access for the front-seat passenger. Designed to be intuitive without sacrificing a clean, sleek design, the team struck the careful balance of physical and digital controls in the cockpit.

Additional interior highlights include:

• Redesigned center console with new storage options and a repositioned, more convenient wireless charging⁵ pad
• New steering wheel design
• Unique interior with Victory Red stitching on RST and all-new Jet Black/Sky Cool Grey interior on Premier
• More sophisticated décor across the lineup, including Piano Black and Galvano chrome, as well as more soft-touch and wrapped materials on select trims
• Upgraded and more refined High Country interior, with authentic wood décor — a first for Tahoe and Suburban — along with wingtip perforated leather seating surfaces, a unique steering wheel, “High Country” identification and a unique Jet Black/Mocha colour combination

More powerful diesel engine

Also new for the 2025 model year is the refined, second-generation 3.0L inline-six turbo-diesel Duramax which offers more power for greater confidence on the road — particularly when trailering⁷. It is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission and is offered on all retail trims, including Z71 for the first time.

Launched previously on the Silverado 1500, the new diesel engine is rated at an GM-estimated 305 horsepower and 495 lb-ft of peak torque, increases of 10 per cent and 7.6 percent, respectively, over the current diesel engine’s 277 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque.

A retuned turbo compressor, along with new, higher-flow fuel injectors, revised piston-cooling oil jets, new steel pistons and improved temperature control features with the cooling system’s Active Thermal Management contribute to the engine’s enhanced power, while new sound absorption materials and a tuned air induction system help balance its performance with quietness and improved refinement.

A 5.3L gas V-8 remains the standard engine for LS, LT, RST, Z71 and Premier. The 6.2L V-8 is standard on High Country and available RST, Z71 and Premier. The new diesel engine is anticipated to be available in 2025 after initial launch.

Ride-and-handling refinements

The multilink independent rear suspension design introduced on the current Tahoe and Suburban has been updated to provide more refined ride-and-handling dynamics. Additional steering calibration improvements offer a confident drive experience across a variety conditions.

“The already excellent ride-and-handling characteristics enabled by the independent rear suspension are taken to the next level with the 2025 Tahoe and Suburban,” said Martin Hayes, chief engineer. “Their responsiveness makes them feel much nimbler than their full-size dimensions suggest.”

Additionally, Air Ride Adaptive Suspension and Magnetic Ride Control^TM return as available features.

The Air Ride Adaptive Suspension is available on High Country and Z71, along with RST for the first time, and offers automatic load-leveling and ride-height adjustment. In highway driving, it automatically lowers the ride height to help reduce aerodynamic drag, which can help enhance efficiency. Driver-selectable heights can reduce entry/exit heights when the vehicle is parked and the driver can also raise the body for additional ground clearance when driving off-road.

With Magnetic Ride Control, which is standard on Premier and High Country and available on RST and Z71, sensors continually “read” the road 1,000 times a second to alter the damping rate of the shocks almost instantly. It is one of the fastest-reacting damping systems in the industry⁴ and helps reduce pitch, body roll and vibrations that can resonate in a large SUV.

Tow with confidence

Towing is important for Tahoe and Suburban customers. Whether it’s a driver’s first-time towing⁷ or they are a seasoned driver who tows frequently, Chevrolet’s suite of trailering technology upgrades boost confidence behind the wheel.

Tahoe and Suburban will continue to include the trailering technologies customers know and love. A Max Trailering package is available and on select trims includes a high-capacity radiator and cooling fan, an integrated trailer brake controller, Hitch View ⁶, Hill Decent Control ⁶, Blind Zone Steering Assist with Trailering ⁶, and when the vehicle is factory installed with the Advanced Trailering Package the Chevrolet in-vehicle Trailering App.

Tahoe and Suburban will also introduce the following new and enhanced features:

• Trailer Tire Health, which helps prevent trailer tire blowouts with a trailer tire life monitor and over-speed warning
• Forward Path Indication, which helps drivers navigate with their trailer with guidelines on the Surround View to indicate the width of the trailer and the trailer’s path. When the turn signal is activated, guidelines will show the driver the estimated turning path for both the vehicle and trailer
• Boat Ramp Assist, which helps customers access a checklist and step-by-step instructions to prepare for towing, launching, and retrieving a boat, is newly available within the Trailering App

Also available through the MyChevrolet mobile app³ when the vehicle is factory installed with the Advanced Trailering Package is the Mobile Trailering App Load Rating Info, which offers anytime/anywhere access to the vehicle’s load rating.

The 2025 Tahoe continues to offer max towing range of 8,400 lbs⁷ and Suburban offers 8,200 lbs⁷.

Connected Vehicle Services*

The 2025 Tahoe and Suburban support OnStar connectivity to elevate the vehicle experience with a variety of subscription-based safety, entertainment and convenience services, including Super Cruise functionality, 24/7 access to live OnStar Advisors, on-demand vehicle diagnostics, Connected Cameras, and more. Highlights include:

• Connected Cameras², a subscription service that utilizes a fully integrated network of cameras which allow customers to remotely view the interior and exterior of their vehicle, including 360 degree views of the exterior. Key benefits include Automatic Crash Recording; Security Recording; Live View; My Recordings (dash cam functionality); industry-first cloud storage and built-in cameras integration⁴ and more. Camera views and recordings are accessible via the myChevrolet mobile app³. Select subscription(s) required to access Connected Camera capabilities. Some features may not be available at vehicle launch and may be added through a software update.
• Super Cruise capable⁸: The industry’s first true hands-free driver assistance technology will now be available on LT and RST and continues to be available on Premier and High Country. Super Cruise is available on more than 640,000 kms of compatible highways in Canada and the U.S. and requires a subscription.  Anticipated to be offered on vehicles produced after initial vehicle launch. Requires factory installation.
• Trailer Navigation⁹, allows you to send information about your trailer dimensions to Google Maps within Google Built-in¹⁰ which calculate routes based on your trailer settings.

Enhanced safety and technology

When it comes to safety and driver awareness technology, the 2025 Tahoe and Suburban will offer more than ever — including a fully integrated network of cameras² that allow customers to remotely view the interior and exterior of their vehicle with select OnStar plans^*.

Tahoe and Suburban will continue to offer standard Chevrolet Safety Assist⁶ — a suite of safety features and driver assistance technologies that include: Enhanced Automatic Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Alert, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking, and IntelliBeam. Additional standard safety features include Enhanced Automatic Parking Assist, Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking, HD Surround Vision, Teen Driver and Buckle to Drive.

AutoSense Power Liftgate will also be available on Tahoe and Suburban. This feature makes loading the vehicle easier when the user’s arms are full by automatically opening the liftgate when it senses the key fob behind the vehicle.

Assembled by GM’s Arlington Assembly Team

Production will take place at GM’s Arlington Assembly plant, in Texas¹¹ — a facility celebrating 70 years of production in 2024.
