The Best Chevy SUVs

Life-long fans of Chevrolet know that the brand builds their vehicles with top-of-the-line materials and with their customer’s safety as a top priority. If it’s got the Chevy logo on it, you know it’s a vehicle that’s going to last you many years and many miles while providing peace of mind. Chevy is nearly synonymous with the word SUV, so if you’re in the market for a car that can transport your passengers and cargo in comfort, visit North Park Chevrolet, your local Oak Grove Chevrolet dealer, to look at our current lineup of options.

Of course, there are multiple types of SUVs, and each serves its purpose. You have your crossovers, which are the smallest option and will feel more like a standard car. These are excellent for the driver looking for the smoothest maneuverability who doesn’t need a tremendous amount of space but still wants the scaled-up size of an SUV. Crossovers might not be ready to handle rough roads like larger SUVs, but they will typically offer excellent fuel economy. A mid-size SUV will drive more like a truck and provide a more authentic SUV experience. It can handle rougher terrain and will have plenty of room inside. Your full-size SUV will handle the most like a large truck. These SUVs offer a high driving position, great traction in less-than-ideal road conditions, and ample space for cargo and passengers.

Chevrolet offers SUVs from each of these families. Determining the best for your needs will be a matter of assessing what you’ll use it for. No matter which direction you take, you can feel confident knowing you’re driving one of the best-constructed brands on the market.

Best Chevy Crossovers

The 2022 Chevy Equinox

This sporty vehicle handles smoothly and is ideal for someone seeking a compact SUV. It has a unique and stylish design and is available in several models, each of which comes standard with a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine. While it might not be intimidating in size, it packs a lot of power. There are many options for customizing this SUV, including those for the infotainment system, navigation system, and luxury additions like heated seats and illuminated sun visors. A lot of attention to detail was given to the 2022 rendition of this relatively new addition to the Chevrolet family. Every 2022 Chevy Equinox comes standard with safety aids, including a forward collision mitigation system to alert you when a crash is impending, lane assist to keep you within your lane, and a rear-seat reminder, which reminds you to look at the back seat before getting out of the car.

The 2021 Chevy Trax

One of the smallest SUVs offered by Chevy, the Trax will come closest to the standard car driving experience. Those overwhelmed by the heft of traditional SUVs can find this to be a nice medium, offering many of the features drivers love about SUVs in a compact body. It’s easy to maneuver and offers an excellent fuel economy of 26 MPG in the city and 31 MPG on the highway. That also makes it a versatile vehicle that can be great for city life or for weekend road trips on open roads. Drivers who need something they can easily park in a metropolitan area, but that can also handle long trips should look into this option. It also has features to keep passengers happy, like rear cup holders for their beverages, backseat storage for everyone’s stuff, and six speakers to let everyone enjoy some tunes on the road.

Best Mid-Size Chevy SUVs

The 2022 Chevrolet Blazer

The 2022 Chevrolet Blazer is an impressive vehicle to look at, both on the exterior and the interior. It has the aesthetic of a luxury vehicle with the utility of an SUV, making it perfect for a driver who needs an attractive car for professional events and a spacious one for family life. Those suffering from Goldielocks syndrome who find some of Chevy’s SUVs too massive and some too small might find that this one is just right. And while it isn’t a full-size, it does come with a towing package for those who want to take the camper or boat out for a weekend of adventure. 

What’s most surprising about this SUV is that it accelerates quickly and steers easily – both unexpected perks of vehicles in this class. It’s rich with user-friendly technology, too, like a touchscreen boasting clear images, compatible Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and an optional Bose sound system. The majority of the trims come standard with nine-speed automatic transmission and a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. In many ways, this option presents the power of larger SUVs and the technology of luxury cars in an easy-to-manage body size.

The 2022 Chevrolet Traverse

If, put simply, you need the capacity to lug around a lot of stuff, this is the Chevy SUV for you. With its 98.2 cubic feet of storage space, it’s ready for whatever your passengers need to put in it, and then some. Those wanting the famously comfortable interior of an SUV cabin will enjoy this option. It has seating for up to eight riders making it perfect for carpooling, a road trip with friends, or taking the kid’s soccer team out for pizza after the big game. 

Some might be surprised to know that, in spite of its size, this SUV also offers impressive acceleration. When it comes to safety, the 2022 version of this vehicle finally integrates many aids that were previously optional add-ons, so you don’t need to wonder whether or not it will have your back when hazards arise. This car is also ready for a little off-roading or journeys that might take you away from the beaten path, thanks to the four-wheel drive that comes standard on all trims and the optional all-wheel drive. Each trim also comes standard with a 3.6-liter V6 and nine-speed automatic transmission.

Best Full-Size Chevy SUVs

The 2022 Chevrolet Tahoe

This fan-favorite offers that smooth, quiet, built-like-a-tank but comfy-as-a-cabin experience many want out of an SUV. One of the most spacious options available, this is one car that might finally put an end to arguments over legroom in the back rows. With a diesel option and exceptional towing capacities, it’s the right car for someone enthusiastic about that classic SUV life. Hitch your camper or boat to this thing and get out there. The Tahoe is ready for the challenge. 

One feature offered in the 2022 rendition that ups the user-friendly ante is the Google-based voice controls. These allow the driver to get important information about road conditions and weather without ever taking their hands off the wheel. The 10.2-inch infotainment system is another feature to write home about. It makes it easy to see and navigate all of your favorite apps. With its ample door storage pockets and maximum 122.9 cubic feet of storage space, it offers a place for everyone to put their creature comforts for a long ride.

The 2022 Chevrolet Suburban

The Suburban is arguably one of the most impressive SUVs offered by Chevrolet, and its 2022 rendition pulled out all the stops on upgrades to the interior and exterior. It has an available Duramax diesel engine for an incredible sense of power behind the wheel and an ultra-high riding position for great clearance and visibility. This is another choice that boasts incredible towing capabilities, so it’s ready for that RV life. 

Chevy has been recreating the Suburban for over a decade, and many would argue it just keeps getting better. It offers seating for up to nine passengers and has plenty of tech to keep the driver and riders happy, like a large touchscreen and a 10-speaker Bose sound system, as well as a wireless charging pad on most trims. A foldable third row makes this a versatile option that’s ready to take on many passengers or large gear.

An SUV for Every Need

While many think of SUVs and immediately envision some massive spaceship of a vehicle, Chevy actually offers a dynamic lineup of SUVs that prove there’s a lot more than meets the eye to these larger cars. From smaller options that drive much like a sedan to those classic tank-like rides, Chevy has an SUV for nearly any driver, so no matter your lifestyle, you can benefit from this manufacturer’s high-end construction and safety. If you need to drive some of these options around to get a feel for how they drive, then stop by North Park Chevrolet today and let us help you find the perfect fit.
