    2025 Chevrolet Tahoe & Suburban Receive Updated Technology

       Certain trim-levels are available with GM's hands-free Super Cruise.

    Chevrolet’s refreshed 2025 Tahoe and Suburban are getting updated technology and safety features. Some of these updates come from the Silverado EV. These SUVs will come with a 17.7-inch touchscreen along with an 11-inch driver’s display. Once optional safety features such as adaptive cruise control, rear pedestrian alert, and side bicyclist alert are now standard.

    Along with the updated tech are two new features. The first one is called Connected Cameras. Standard on the RST, Z71, Premier, and High County, allows owners to see various exterior and interior angles. This also records crashes and thefts. OnStar service will be required, along with a subscription. GM’s hands-free Super Cruise will be available for LT, RST, Premier, and High Country.

    Tahoe and Suburban will have the same trim levels as before. These are LS, LT, RST, Z71, Premier, and High Country. A 5.3-liter V8 is standard on all but the High Country trim level. Standard on the High Country and optional on the RST, Z71, and Premier is the 6.2-liter V8. While the 5.3-liter V8 produces 355 horsepower and 383 lb-ft, the 6.2-liter V8 makes 430 horsepower and 460 lb-ft. An updated 3.0-liter inline-six turbo diesel makes 305 horsepower and 495 lb-ft. Every engine gets a 10-speed automatic.

    Both SUVs come with animations for turn signals and approach lighting. Two new colors include Cypress Gray and Lakeshore Blue Metallic. RST and High Country trim levels get 24-inch wheels. While the Suburban can tow 8,200 pounds, the Tahoe can tow 8,400 pounds. Pricing has yet to be revealed.

    Me too! That would be a tough choice for me.

    Obviously, I'll need to see it in person but it looks freakin sweet in pictures. 

    I just hope a few people actually want it over black, white, or silver.

    Very interesting video

    @Drew Dowdell Do you know if Tesla requires some sort of subscription to Tesla to allow the 360 degree cameras to record what is going on with the vehicle the way GM is requiring Subscription to On-Star to allow recording use via the Camera's?

    Having the look at these two colors in their high-res pictures, I will take the Lakeshore Blue Metallic over the Cypress Grey.

    I'm not Drew but, I don't believe you have to subscribe to that at Tesla. 

    Drew will correct me if I'm wrong. ?

    Here is the full press release on this: The Best Get Better: Meet Chevrolet’s New 2025 Tahoe and Suburban

    @riviera74

    As per the details at the end of the chart, the weight of the Passengers, cargo and options/accessories may reduce the amount you can tow.

    Suburban has more interior room than the Tahoe and as such tow's less due to the increased number of passengers / cargo.

    Interesting observation, Suburban can have 2nd and 3rd row bench seats, but Tahoe has captain seats 2nd row only with bench seat for the 3rd row, so less people capacity.

    Pretty much, you can probably tow more with the suburban if you have less people/cargo.

    Why is the new Tahoe able to tow more weight than a new Suburban?

     

    Trailer weight rating is gross weight rating minus vehicle weight, and if you’re ġoing strictly by the book, also minus cargo and passenger weight. That’s why the 6.2 has a lower rating than the 5.3, it’s a heavier engine.

    That said, because people overload them all the time, they’re all very underrated.

    It’s the same scenario happens on the Silverado EV. It has a low tow rating, not because it can’t handle it, but because it’s a heavy vehicle and having a higher gross weight pushes it into a higher class like a 250/2500 series. In most states that requires an additional registration fee and higher insurance rates. So Chevy keeps the rating artificially low…but they’re coming out with a Max Tow package for those who want it that will have a higher GVWR.

      Industry News: SLATE EV Pickup starting at under $20,000, Funded by Jeff Bezo

      By G. David Felt · Posted

      How many times have you heard people say EVs are too expensive! Only the rich can afford an EV! Funded by Jeff Beso, SLATE set out to bring back the simple needs of the bulk of America by building a basic two-person electric truck that would do truck things basically and not much else. Yet if you wanted, you could expand later on to let the truck be so much more. SLATE set themselves a clear goal, build a truck that would be inexpensive, offer radical customizable and affordable options that would allow one to personalize their own transportation ending in a beautifully simplified means of transportation. SLATE CEO Chris Barman at their reveal tonight stated the following: “Slate exists to put the power back in the hands of customers who have been ignored by the auto industry. Slate is a radical truck platform so customizable that it can transform from a 2-seat pickup to a 5-seat SUV.” One would be right to ask, how does one go about being a disruptive business model in an industry that has taken things to the ultimate luxury level, ignoring the basic entry level needs? Simple, start with a simplified manufacturing process, removing unnecessary content while increasing reliability. SLATE delivered tonight the basic EV Pickup that starts with things many might not know existed at one time by traveling back to the 1970's. Steel Wheels Manual Crank Windows Manual HVAC knobs Large Frunk that handles 1,400lbs payload This just for the beginning brings so much more that many have probably never thought about in a DIY Unlimited personalization approach to autos. Slate starts with having over 100 accessories that can be purchased as a bundle or ala-cart. One can do this at the time of order or over time. SLATE points out that the truck can be anything, need more people room, get the flat-pack, an accessory kit that creates a five person SUV. The kit includes additional bench seat, roll cage, airbags that can be done by yourself or be done for you. The truck is designed as a clean SLATE that allows unlimited personalization in vehicle wrapping by yourself or a pro. Yet they do not stop there, we all have heard "Bring your own tech". Rather than learn a new interface, use the one you love. Slate introduces the universal phone mount and USB power. Add a dedicated tablet if you want to. This made in America truck was designed for top personal safety and will have the following standard features: Emergency braking Forward Collision Warning Up to eight airbags This EV pickup for everyone has the following features in regards to the battery pack, range and charging: Two battery packs 52.7 kWh, rwd estimated 150-mile range 84.3 kWh with an estimated range of 240-miles NACS charging port Home charging overnight  DC fast charging to 80% in under 30 minutes using 150 kW charger. SLATE has stated transparent pricing is the key, expected starting price to be under $20,000 after current federal incentives. Just a $50 deposit to reserve your pickup / SUV today.

      Oddly enough it's the Envision, the Chinese one, that is the most unique of the Buick lineup. While it is plaform-shared with the Terrain and 'Nox, it has different dimensions in and out and does feel like a significantly more premium vehicle.   Unless someone is really hung up about brand and RWD, I would recommend an Envision Avenir over a X3 or GLC any day. I can't say the same about a Terrain Denali though.

      The Toyota version looks better than the Lexus version.  And they should call it Avalon, instead of bz7.
