CHEVROLETTahoe 2023 - Present

　　In late 2023, Chevrolet introduced the refreshed version of the Tahoe’s fifth generation, and the changes were so significant that the automaker could’ve called it a new generation.

　　While sometimes you have to have a keen eye for detail to spot the differences between a facelifted and a non-facelifted version of a car, for the 2025 Tahoe, nobody should have that problem. This long line of off-road capable, three-row family haulers and full-size SUVs became more friendly with the environment and with its customers as well. There were essential changes on the vehicle’s exterior, the interior, and under the hood that made it look like a different generation. As expected, the bow-tie brand also added more wheels and tire options.

　　Chevrolet offered the Tahoe in six trim levels, LS, LT, RST, Z71, Premier, and High Country, each with specific details that made them stand apart from the rest of their stablemates. Still, the most significant upgrades were for the off-road-oriented Z71 version, which was the fastest-selling version of the Tahoe. At the front, the automaker installed C-shaped LED daytime running lights that pointed inward. Some versions sported horizontal slats on the grille, while the Z71 featured an egg-crate one. It was also the version that got two red towing hooks in the apron.

　　From its profile, the Tahoe kept the shape and proportions of its non-facelifted version. But even here, the automaker managed to make some changes to make the SUV look better. Customers had the option of choosing darkened B-posts and black trims around the windows. There was a wide choice of nine wheels options to choose from, ranging between 18” and 24”. At the back, the automaker created new corner-mounted taillights that featured a short red upper section and a longer one at the bottom, creating a more substantial visual message when the blinkers were turned on.

　　Inside, it was an entirely new environment. Firstly, the dashboard was moved about an inch lower (2.5 cm) to increase the driver’s visibility. That also led to a reduction of the instrument cluster’s display from 12-inch to 11-inch, but the new screen sported an enhanced layout and was easier to read. In addition, atop the dashboard, Chevrolet installed a 17.7” touchscreen for the infotainment system, which was the widest in the industry. The Tahoe offered room for up to eight people seated on the three rows. The middle row could slide, tumble, and fold, offering an easier ingress and egress for those sitting in the rearmost positions.

　　Under the hood, the automaker still offered the same three engines as before, two gas-powered V8s and an inline-six turbodiesel, but these were improved. Another big news was for those who wanted the Z71 off-road version, which previously was unavailable with the torquey oil burner but it became available starting with the 2025 Tahoe model year. All versions were paired with a ten-speed automatic transmission. Besides the Z71 grade, all the others were available with either rear- or four-wheel drive systems.
