Here is a quick look at why auto industry insiders are heaping on the praise for the new Chevy Suburban.
The Perfect Ride For...
Families, business owners, outdoor enthusiasts and nearly everyone else. Whether you are looking for a large vehicle capable of accommodating your family, your business equipment, sporting equipment or anything else, the Suburban will get the job done right. Fold the seats flat and you will free up an impressive 121.7 cubic feet of cargo capacity. In other words, you can fit just about anything in this large SUV with considerable room to spare. The vehicle features a standard 3-position bench seat yet drivers are free to substitute heated/cooled leather chairs in the second row. However, the new Suburban is not exclusively focused on utility. This SUV also has a bevy of tech niceties including an 8-inch touchscreen with a user experience tailored to individuals with varying levels of tech prowess. It can be said without even the slightest doubt that the 2020 Chevrolet Suburban is a democratized vehicle, fit for the masses, regardless of their nuanced tastes and desires.
Drive and Handling
There is a common misconception that large vehicles such as the Chevrolet Suburban handle similar to tanks. Take the new Suburban for a spin and you will find it drives like a dream. The 2020 Suburban is available with your choice of two V8 engines, each of which propels the full-size SUV with surprising ease. Opt for the 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 that produces up to 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque and you will be more than impressed with the Suburban’s power.
The Suburban’s Premier trim is available with a 6.2-liter EcoTec3 V8 engine that produces 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. This engine is sophisticated to the point that it boasts deactivation for fuel-efficiency optimization. If you plan on using your new Suburban for towing purposes, you are in luck. The 6.2-liter model can tow up to 8,100 pounds and the 5.3-liter model can tow up to 6,300 pounds.
Key Features
Safety
Chevrolet is working to keep your family safe and the new Suburban is available with tons of driver assistance features to make it easier than ever. If you feel like the Suburban is too large to comfortably navigate the roads, think again. With the standard Rear Vision Camera, you’ll be able to see what’s behind the Suburban every time you put it in reverse. Rear Park Assist helps detect objects behind you while parking. Teen Driver lets you monitor your children’s’ driving habits, and OnStar® and Chevrolet Connected Services capability mean you always have someone on your side in emergencies. Available features like Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Forward Collision Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Change Alert, and Lane Keep Assist give you even more help on the road.
Comfort and Tech
What would a 2020 vehicle be without a couple of fun bells and whistles? This year’s edition of the Suburban provides plenty of fun and entertainment. The Suburban’s tech is highlighted by the Chevrolet Infotainment System with an 8-inch color touchscreen. Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ allow you to connect your smartphone to the Suburban seamlessly. Stay connected on the go with 4G LTE Wi-Fi® hotspot capability and the available Bose® Centerpoint® Surround Sound 10-speaker audio system produces amazing sound reproduction. Opt for the LT version of the Suburban and you will enjoy a power liftgate, heated front seats and a lovely Bose® 9-speaker sound system that fills the cabin interior with audio of the highest quality, sure to please riders from the front all the way to the back.
Alternative Options
For an SUV that isn’t quite as large, take a look at the Chevrolet Tahoe, which offers enough space and technology for the whole family in a slightly smaller package. If you need something much smaller, the Chevrolet Trax is one of the most popular crossover models on the road, and for good reason.
