In response to consumer demand, Chevrolet has added a new trim level to its 2019 Tahoe and Suburban SUVs that allows for greater availability of the company’s 420-horsepower 6.2-liter V8. The 2018 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban Premier Plus models will also feature a standard 10-speed automatic transmission and Magnetic Ride Control suspension.
The new model is a follow-on to the 2018 Tahoe RST 6.2L Performance Package as well as the recently introduced 2019 Suburban RST 6.2L Performance Package. Both are on sale at Chevy dealers nationally.
“Our customers have shown strong demand for both Tahoe and Suburban with the 6.2L V8 option,” said Sandor Piszar, director of Chevrolet Trucks Marketing and Advertising. “Thirty-six percent of all Chevy full-size SUV special edition models are now sold with this engine. Premier Plus gives both Suburban and Tahoe customers another option to choose from with several added premium touches.”
