The 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe is the first complete review of Chevy’s full-size SUV since 2015, and one of the largest. It features a brand new independent rear suspension, a larger body, a new diesel engine option and many new features. The primary review is an attempt to remain competitive against its rival, the Ford Expedition, which won its own full review a few years ago. -production and discovered that it was a well packaged SUV with a very advanced interior, but the pleasure of driving is a bit varied.
The Tahoe has some other engine and suspension features: the popular engine is a 5. 3-liter V8 with 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, and at the moment it is the only engine you have on all models. High level of Country equipment. This provides a 6. 2 litre V8 with 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque. This is the same force as the optional 6. 2 of the previous model, however, both engines are now supplied with cylinder deactivation. Dynamic fuel control that can prevent any cylinder in the desired order through the PC instead of simply turning off a set of cylinders. Both engines are now supplied with a 10-speed automatic transmission.
Despite reports and tricky cylinder deactivation, combined fuel intake remains unchanged from last year for two-wheel drive styles, while the 5. 3-liter all-wheel drive Tahoe improves from 1 mpg at 18 combined. Driving style actually drops from 1 mpg to 17 combined. A sleek 3. 0-liter six-cylinder in-line diesel engine will be available later, also with a 10-speed automatic transmission. it had on the Silverado where it drives between 25 and 27 mpg combined.
Our Z71 was supplied with a 5. 3-liter engine, and is a perfectly suited engine for this full-size SUV. It is padded and quiet, and the deactivation of the cylinders is absolutely imperceptible. The transmission is also smooth, it doesn’t look. for speeds and doesn’t keep them uncomfortable for long. Following traffic is not a problem, but acceleration is not exciting (especially compared to the popular V6 turbo shipping). If you need a little vertigo in your SUV, you definitely need the 6. 2-liter engine: it’s a shame you have to buy the dearest Tahoe to access it. We think we’re also going to like the diesel engine, given our delight in GM pickup trucks.
The Tahoe’s walking and handling are, in the end, smart enough for a full-size SUV, but there are some caveats. First, we tested a Tahoe with the optional air suspension, which in theory can drive very differently to a Tahoe without it. Among these differences is the inclusion of other modes that adapt various vehicle configurations to your preferences. In the default convenience mode, the Tahoe has a pretty elegant ride that softens any bump well, there is moderate frame swing. Much of that is eliminated with the game mode that increases suspension without making the ride unpleasant. Another credit for air suspension is adjustable handling height. You can reduce the Tahoe by two inches for easy access and exit, or you can raise the Tahoe by two inches for more free floor space. We don’t know where the constant suspension adjustment of a non-pneumatic Tahoe will be, nor can we point to the improvement of the magnetically activated suspension which, in theory, deserves to be even greater than pneumatic springs.
In corners, the Tahoe is composed, even on rough surfaces, the credit is for both the new independent rear suspension and pneumatic springs. Combined with a well-weighted and fairly accurate steering, the Tahoe is almost fun to push. The problem, whether driving or handling, is that the frame is too loose and flexible. By passing over potholes, you get many emotions and vibrations through the picture; some are to be expected in a vehicle with chassis chassis, adding the Expedition, however, the Tahoe had more than the Silverado. Just when you think the IRS and pneumatic springs have made the Tahoe civilize, a nervous reaction to a small blow breaks the illusion.
There is not much to deter from internal courtesy to the radically renovated interior. The rounded shape of the main board is sublime and has a small hood on the most sensitive part for additional visual interest. In the most sensitive versions, the board is wrapped in a rather It is a great contrast to the bulging and grim interior of the Silverado and, in fact, GM deserves to be credited with giving Tahoe (and GMC Yukon) an interior design unique to its pick-up brothers. and paste from the F-150 to Expedition.
The controls are easy to use and with many buttons and buttons. The popular 10-inch touchscreen is large, easy to read and reach, and very responsive. Chevy also offers complicated technology, adding a 15-inch front display screen, two 12. 6-inch second row monitors and a wide variety of towing cameras. These rear screens can also be connected to the navigation formula so that rear passengers can locate and recommend destinations. Media can also be shared between the two rear screens or used separately.
However, the Tahoe’s cab focus is its new space: the Tahoe has grown to 6. 7 inches long, its wheelbase has been extended to 4. 9 inches, and in particular the transition to an independent suspension allows you to lower and make the ground. Flatter.
There is plenty of head and leg room up front, as well as some knee room. There are many changes to the steering wheel and seat, and it is very easy to find a comfortable position. The seats are a bit flat and firm, but they aren’t too bad. By switching to the moment row, which now has a sliding adjustment, your 5-foot-11-inch writer can simply seat you in the moment row with plenty of room to spare, although the seats were even firmer and flatter. Third row, your writer can simply clone himself to sit back to back in moderate comfort. By the numbers, the third row has as much legroom as the larger Suburban, and that’s absolutely believable. The third row is still not a position that an adult or adult teenager would need for a full road vacation because it is flat and firm, the wheel moves a bit, and the seat base stays in contact with it. floor. The Expedition’s third row is even higher off the ground, more spacious and more comfortable. You may just sit there for a while.
Access to the third row is at least very smart thanks to a very wide corridor between the seats in the momentary row, which also lean forward for access. The momentary row also folds quite flat so that when the third row also folds, you have an absolutely flat loading floor.
The general shipping area is also higher, particularly compared to the previous Tahoe. Behind the third row, the area is up to 25. 5 cubic feet of the 15. 3 for the previous model. With all seats folded, the area increases from 94. 7 cubic feet to 122. 9 cubic feet. cubic feet. Reduced terrain also makes it less difficult to load items inside. Maximum payload capacity decreased from 1,880 pounds to 1,834 pounds. The maximum towing capacity remains the same at 8400 pounds. Note the payload and towing range according to the powertrain. and finishing level.
In terms of value, the Tahoe is close to the Ford Expedition. The base value is more than $55,095 for a two-wheel drive Tahoe LT V8 compared to $54,505 for a two-wheel drive EXPEDITION XLT with the popular twin-engine. At the other end of the spectrum, the Tahoe High Country with four-wheel drive and its larger 6. 2-liter V8 starts at $73,895, sliding below the $77,085 four-wheel drive Ford Expedition Platinum. its large off-road SUV off the beaten track (or at least making it look like that), the Tahoe Z71 features a unique front bumper for a forward staggered technical angle, off-road tires, a slippery differential and protective plates starting at $60,495 The fundamental shipment can be supplied with the FX4 package, which adds off-road shock absorbers, a limited-slip rear differential , protective plates and off-road tires for $59810, but looks like a particularly less convincing off-road device than the Z71. .
The Tahoe 2021 is undoubtedly a fundamental improvement over its predecessor. The independent rear suspension, in particular, fixes past driving, handling and internal packaging problems, while the new cab helps keep the Tahoe completely new and fashionable in a segment that is quite the opposite. We’re not sure it’s enough to make the new Tahoe a simple selection about shipping, but it’s definitely a more complicated resolution than it was a year ago.
