The Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban Get the Off-Road Treatment in 2022

The latest version of the Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban can give you the most dynamic off-road experience you’ve ever had in a full-size SUV.

Most customers will likely forego the ability to head out on the trails for some fun and adventure, but if you want to get the most out of your full-size Chevy SUV, you’ll want to add the benefit of the new Off-Road Performance Package that’s offered in the 2022 version of these two SUVs.

While both models were redesigned for the 2021 model year, the 2022 model year gives us upgrades and added benefits rather than a complete makeover.

First, You Have to Select the Z71 Trim Level

Typically, we see the Z71 moniker as an off-road package on some of the Chevy SUVs and trucks rather than as a full trim level. This name has grown to bring so much success and respect that it is now offered as a full trim level for nearly all SUVs and trucks with the Chevy badge on them. If you want to beef up your off-road fun, you’ll have to start with the Z71 trim and work your way up from there.

What Does the Off-Road Performance Package Include?

Start With the Engine

The starting point for this package is the 6.2-liter V8 engine which pumps out 420 horsepower and 460 lb.-ft. of torque which is mounted through a ten-speed automatic transmission. This is the standard equipment for this trim, but you can have the only diesel engine offered in the segment. This would be a 3.0-liter turbocharged diesel six-cylinder engine which gives you impressive fuel mileage, 277 horsepower, and 460 lb.-ft. of torque. This means you can have all the torque you need and still enjoy the added benefits of the diesel powertrain.

Get More of What You Need

The Chevrolet Tahoe in the Z71 trim also brings you dual twin polished stainless-steel exhaust tips, which finishes off the look you admire in this big SUV. The same goes for the Suburban, with the exhaust ports you’ll love to see.
The Off-Road Capability Package is part of the Off-Road Performance Package. That means you’ll also find the following items when you order your full-size SUV with this upgraded package.

• Magnetic Ride Control
• Air Ride Adaptive Suspension
• Electronic Limited-Slip Differential

These items will give your Tahoe or Suburban much more capability when you head out on the trails and offer a smoother ride when you’re on the roads.

When you add the Off-Road Capability Package, you also have to select the Max Trailering Package and the Luxury Package. These packages increase the capabilities you need with the trailering equipment needed to pull a heavy trailer and the added comfort and features you want when you’re looking for the SUV you drive to feel more like a luxury model on the road.

Will you drive a Suburban or Tahoe with the new Off-Road Performance Package?

With the addition of the equipment needed to take you on the trails, over rocks, through the mud, and across the sand, the Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban can be ideal for your fun in the wilderness. You’ll love the way these SUVs can be equipped when it’s time to load your SUV up with gear, find a few friends to take along, and have some fun camping, hiking, climbing, kayaking, or rafting in your favorite area.

Can you imagine the amazing capability and dynamic drive offered when you get behind the wheel of one of these large and impressive SUVs? You’re going to have an amazing time in the outdoors.

What Else Will You Have in the Chevrolet Tahoe

The Z71 model of the Tahoe is equipped with a front skid plate, all-terrain tires, and 4WD. The addition of the Luxury Package gives you a 360-degree camera system, rear pedestrian alert, self-dimming side mirrors, a power-adjustable steering column, heated steering wheel, heated outboard rear seats, a dual-screen rear-seat entertainment system, and a dual-pane panoramic sunroof. These items make this SUV feel more impressive and give you everything you’re going to want to enjoy when out in the wilderness.
