What’s New for the 2019 Chevrolet Suburban?

Not much, unfortunately. Chevy is likely to introduce a new Suburban generation for 2020, so the 2019 model stays pretty close to last year.

The largest update for 2019 is the introduction of a new Suburban RST Performance Package for the Premier trim level. This package originally first appeared on the Tahoe last year, and was so popular Chevy decided to carry it over to the larger sibling.

The RST Performance Package includes a 6.2-liter EcoTec3 V8 L86 engine (making 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque), a Hydra-Matic 10-speed automatic transmission, GM’s Magnetic Ride Control suspension, a two-speed active transfer case for 4WD, a 3.23 rear axle ration, a larger 170-amp alternator, a high-capacity air cleaner, and 22-inch wheels.

Other updates mostly revolve around a new color, Shadow Gray Metallic. In exchange, Chevy deleted two older colors, Havana Metallic and Tungsten Metallic. Finally, Chevy redesigned the tailgate badge for the Premier trim.

Exterior

The 2019 Suburban is Chevy’s largest SUV, and one of its few “true” SUVs, based on a truck platform. It shares its looks with the Tahoe, except that it is significantly longer.

Performance

The 2019 Chevrolet Suburban gets its standard power from a 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 engine, which makes 355 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque, for a maximum towing weight of 8,300 pounds. However, with the new RST Performance Package on the Premier trim, the Suburban replaces that engine with a larger 6.2-liter EcoTec3 V8 that makes 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque.

Efficiency

When using its standard powertrain and two-wheel drive, the 2019 Suburban makes an EPA-estimated 15 mpg in the city, 22 mpg on the highway, and 18 mpg combined. With four-wheel drive, this drops slightly to 14 mpg in the city, 21 mpg on the highway, and 16 mpg combined.

With the optional performance package (which only comes with four-wheel drive and a 10-speed automatic transmission), the Suburban gets 14 mpg in the city, 20 mpg on the highway, and 16 mpg combined.
