Performance and Truck-Like Capability Most Suburban buyers take a keen interest in performance since a bulky vehicle is a lot less fun to drive if acceleration is sluggish or the ride feels more like a commercial dump truck than a prestigious family SUV. Chevy starts by offering a choice of three powerful engines: a 5.3-liter V8, a more powerful 6.2-liter V8, or a 3.0-liter Duramax Turbo Diesel power plant. The base engine delivers a respectable 355 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque, while the upgraded 6.2-liter increases output to 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque. To access maximum towing capability, opt for the available Duramax 3.0-liter, which achieves the same 460 lb-ft torque but makes it available at just 1,500 RPM. Plentiful low-end torque means better towing capability, so if you regularly haul an RV or a boat, consider upgrading to the Turbo Diesel motor. The Suburban's available Magnetic Ride Control system enhances handling in every driving scenario, from navigating the streets of San Antonio to logging highway miles. The system adjusts the suspension damping every millisecond in response to road conditions, optimizing ride quality and fuel efficiency. Steering and traction are more precise, and you will feel solidly in control, no matter the weather. Adventure-oriented families might consider the Z71 trim, which offers off-roading equipment designed to take you over dirt trails, up the side of a mountain, and everywhere in-between. Included in the Z71 are red tow hooks, skid plates, all-terrain tires mounted, and optional Four-Corner Air Ride Adaptive Suspension, which is capable of increasing ground clearance at the press of a button. Four-wheel drive is also standard on the Z71 trim. The Suburban: From Carpool to Campsite Buying a Suburban means that you're adding one of the segment's most family-friendly SUVs to your driveway. Whether you outfit your Suburban with in-cabin luxuries or opt for an off-road-ready Z71 to accompany you on all of life's adventures, you'll be choosing an SUV with a proven track record of reliability and durability. The Suburban is a legend, delivering unbeatable utility and performance. With seating for up to eight passengers and room left over for all your family's gear, the Suburban offers practical dimensions for busy, growing families.
