As the leading Chevy dealer near Pearsall, how can our team help bring your Chevy SUV dreams to life? Chevrolet goes above and beyond to build high-quality models that offer outstanding capabilities, innovative technologies, and premium comforts without a mile-high price tag. These characteristics are at the heart of the Suburban and Tahoe, the industry’s best-selling large SUVs. 

Debuting in the 1930s as a carryall vehicle, the Suburban is Chevrolet’s longest-running nameplate and has shared the spotlight with the Tahoe since its introduction in the 1990s. The full-size SUVs are part of an incredible legacy, with Chevrolet introducing many new and exciting updates for the 2025 models. Here’s a closer look at those updates and why the 2025 Suburban and 2025 Tahoe should be at the top of your list.  

#1 – A Bolder Exterior With a Rugged Stance and New Lighting

The 2025 Suburban and 2025 Tahoe are full-size SUVs with expansive footprints. However, despite their size, Chevrolet ensures the SUVs are modern and athletic. The automaker accomplishes this with several updates, like integrating the daytime running lights without compromising the brand’s signature dual C-shaped light designs. More prominent lighting signatures give the Suburban and Tahoe more personality and unique styling, especially with exclusive lighting sequences on trims like the Premier and High Country. 
 
Beyond the lighting, the SUVs also feature a more rugged stance, which Chevrolet heightens with an all-new 24-inch wheel design on the High Country and RST. This ruggedness exudes capability, especially on the Z71 trims that feature skid plates and a high-approach front fascia to reflect the Z71’s penchant for adventure. Additional exterior updates include a new front fascia inspired by the best-selling Silverado, another popular Chevrolet in the Pearsall landscape.

#2 – A Refined and Modern Interior With More Space  

As full-size SUVs, the Tahoe and Suburban are already spacious and can comfortably accommodate passengers and cargo. Yet, Chevrolet goes a step further in 2025 to make the SUVs feel more spacious. Because of this, the Tahoe and Suburban offer more versatile cabins with enhanced visibility and functionality. 
 
For 2025, Chevrolet redesigns the dashboard by lowering the instrument panel and adding sweeping lines across the front of the Tahoe and Suburban. Though initially subtle, the redesign makes the front row feel more spacious and improves visibility. Chevrolet also redesigns the center console to make it more user-friendly, incorporating knobs and buttons, more storage options, and easier accessibility to elements like the wireless charging pad.

#3 – Top-Tier Trims Are More Luxurious Than Ever 

The 2025 Tahoe and 2025 Suburban introduce a new level of luxury in their High Country trims. For the first time in the SUVs’ histories, the High Country trims feature authentic wood details throughout the cabin. The seats are upgraded with wingtip perforated leather in an exclusive combination of Jet Black and Mocha. You’ll also find the steering wheel is designed exclusively for the High Country, along with a signature High Country grille and badging. 

#4 – A Better and Smoother Ride  

The Tahoe and Suburban defy expectations because, despite their size, they’re engaging and responsive. Chevrolet will capitalize on these characteristics in 2025 by improving the ride quality and handling. The updated multilink independent rear suspension and recalibrated steering system deliver more control in various conditions, making the Tahoe and Suburban feel far more agile than expected. 
 
The optional Air Ride Adaptive Suspension and Magnetic Ride Control enhance that control and significantly impact ride quality. For example, the four-corner Air Ride Adaptive Suspension automatically lowers the ride height to improve aerodynamics and enhance efficiency when driving on the highway. Drivers can also manually adjust the ride height to make loading cargo or entering and exiting the Tahoe or Suburban easier. Alternatively, Magnetic Ride Control works behind the scenes by constantly reading the road and adjusting the shocks to improve the ride quality and minimize the vibrations expected of a large SUV. 

#5 – A Potent Powertrain Lineup 

The 2025 Tahoe and 2025 Suburban return to the spotlight and offer more power and capability than ever before. An updated Duramax 3.0L Turbo-Diesel takes the lead, delivering up to 305 hp and 495 lb-ft of torque. It’s also newly available for the Z71 trim. This potency makes the Duramax the most powerful in the SUVs’ history, outshining the 2024 Duramax’s output of 277 hp and 460 lb-ft of torque. 
 
Pearsall drivers looking for one of Chevrolet’s gas powertrains have two exceptional options. The 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 is the base powerplant for the SUVs, producing 355 hp and 383 lb-ft of torque. Opting for a top-tier trim like the High Country or upgrading the RST, Z71, and Premier offers more power, courtesy of the 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 that makes between 420 and 433 hp and 460-467 lb-ft of torque. 

#6 – New Trailering Technologies 

With a potent powertrain lineup, the 2025 Tahoe and 2025 Suburban have outstanding work ethics. The 2025 Tahoe offers a maximum towing capacity of 8,400 pounds, with the 2025 Suburban boasting an 8,200-pound limit. Chevrolet enhances that capability via the Max Trailering package, which features the Chevrolet Trailering App, Hill Descent Control, Hitch View, an integrated trailer brake controller, a high-capacity radiator, a cooling fan, and Blind Zone Steering Assist with Trailering. 
 
For 2025, the Tahoe and Suburban gain more advanced trailering technologies to enhance your confidence when pulling a heavy load. Trailer Tire Health monitors the trailer’s tires to help prevent blowouts, while the Mobile Trailering App offers load rating information to promote safe trailering. The new Trailer Navigation tool helps navigate the best route based on the size of the trailer, and the Forward Path Indication technology works with the Surround View camera to show the width of the trailer and its intended turning path. 
 
Lastly, the Boat Ramp Assist feature is perfect for Pearsall adventurers who like to spend time on the water. The technology works with Chevrolet’s trailering app and adds a boating-specific checklist. Like the pre-departure checklist on a traditional trailer, the Boat Ramp Assist checklist helps you safely tow, launch, and reload your boat. 

#7 – Class-Leading Digital Displays 

The 2025 Tahoe and 2025 Suburban lead the segment as tech-savvy road warriors. Chevrolet ensures as much by outfitting the SUVs with a best-in-class 17.7-inch center touchscreen display, an 11-inch driver information center, and a class-leading 15-inch head-up display. The driver-information center and accompanying head-up display offer vital performance insights, like mileage, fuel economy, navigational cues, and driver-assist alerts. You can also use the driver information display to see diagnostic-related information, like oil life and tire pressure. 
 
The expansive 17.7-inch infotainment system complements the driver displays and is home to the SUVs’ connectivity, entertainment, and navigational tools. With the screen canted slightly toward the driver, the display is easily accessible and remarkably intuitive. It offers seamless smartphone integration via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Google Built-In also comes standard, along with a multi-view camera system and a WiFi hotspot.

#8 – Drive Hands-Free With Super Cruise 

Navigating your life in Pearsall is easier and more enjoyable than ever with the 2025 Tahoe and 2025 Suburban. The SUVs offer Super Cruise, the industry’s first true hands-free driver-assist technology. Now trailering compatible, Super Cruise lets you take your hands off the wheel and enjoy the ride as long as you keep your eyes on the road. The updated technology can also navigate lane changes when you activate the turn signal and reposition the SUV in its lane using lane-centering technology, a perfect feature when cruising busy routes like I-35.
