Chevrolet Tahoe Frequently Asked Questions: Power, Seating, and Towing Questions Answered

Full-size SUVs invite big questions, and the Chevrolet Tahoe has earned most of the answers. Questions about engine choices, third-row space, and tow ratings come to our team at Randy Wise Chevrolet every week. Here is what matters most before your first test drive.
What Engine Options Power the New Chevy Tahoe?
Three available powertrains share one smooth-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission, and each one suits a different kind of driving. The standard 5.3-liter V8 produces 355 horsepower, which covers daily commutes and family road trips without complaint. If you want more, an available 6.2-liter EcoTec®3 V8 puts out 420 horsepower, while the available Duramax® 3.0-liter Turbo-Diesel takes a different path entirely with 305 horsepower, a stout 495 lb-ft of torque, and long-haul efficiency. Rear-wheel drive is standard, four-wheel drive is available, and a properly equipped tow rating of up to 8,400 lbs handles boats, campers, and travel trailers through Michigan summers.
How Much Room Do Your Passengers and Cargo Get?
Three rows in this new Chevrolet SUV seat up to nine passengers depending on configuration, and the generous legroom holds up even in the back. Available leather-appointed seating, heated and ventilated front seats, and power-folding rear seats let you dress the cabin up or keep it practical, while available premium interior materials raise the experience higher in the lineup. You get up to 122.7 cubic feet of cargo space with the seats folded. The cabin converts in minutes whether the day calls for a full crew or a flat load floor.
Which Technology and Safety Features Come Standard?
The 17.7-inch infotainment touchscreen is standard, and it dominates the dashboard. Navigation, entertainment, vehicle settings, and smartphone connectivity all live there. Build from that base with available premium audio, wireless charging, multiple USB ports, and connected services, plus a digital information display that keeps key data in your sightline. Blind Zone Steering Assist, Lane Keep Assist, and Rear Cross Traffic Alert are among the available driver-assistance features watching the road with you.
