Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban Premier Plus Special Editions Feature Popular 6.2-Liter V8
Chevrolet is giving Tahoe and Suburban buyers more opportunities to purchase a full-size SUV equipped with a 6.2-liter V8 engine.
The brand recently introduced Tahoe and Suburban Premier Plus special editions featuring that popular V8, which delivers a robust 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque.
These new editions follow the 2018 Tahoe and 2019 Suburban RST Performance Packages, which also feature the 6.2-liter V8.
“Our customers have shown strong demand for both Tahoe and Suburban with the optional 6.2-liter V8 option,” said Sandor Piszar, the director of Chevrolet Trucks Marketing and Advertising. “Thirty-six percent of all Chevy full-size SUV special edition models are now sold with this engine. Premier Plus gives both Suburban and Tahoe customers another option to choose from with several added premium touches.”
