Buyers Guide: 2023 Chevy Tahoe

The Chevrolet Tahoe has been among the best SUVs in its class for many years. The new 2023 Tahoe is set to be the best yet, featuring a range of advanced and updated features and options. Here we’ll dive into the statistics and details related to everything the 2023 Chevrolet Tahoe offers, including everything new for the model year.

From Cruise Control to Super Cruise

Cruise control has become a standard feature in most vehicles over recent decades. More advanced versions of the system have become available every few years. First came the steering wheel controls and speed settings, then the integrated radar and laser systems needed for distance pacing. Some vehicles have camera components that help keep cruise control capable vehicles in their lanes. Super Cruise represents a paradigm shift related to this core driver convenience system.

Not only can it handle speed modulation, lane keeping, and highway driving hands-free, it can handle automatic lane changes while the vehicle is trailering. That’s right: when you hitch your trailer, boat, or camper to the 2023 Tahoe, according to Super Cruise instructions, you’ll be able to set them within the detection and operation scope of the system.

Keep in mind that hands-free driving should never become attention-free driving. Drivers should always pay attention to the road and be ready to take over from Super Cruise at a moment’s notice. To take manual control and deactivate Super Cruise, all you need to do is grab the wheel.

The 2023 Max Trailering Package

Chevrolet is offering a package to help increase the Tahoe’s towing capabilities for the 2023 model year. The 2023 version of the Max Trailering Package includes a hitch guidance system, hitch view cameras, the specialized Chevrolet trailering application, integrated trailer brakes, a cooling fan, and a high-capacity radiator. This system cluster comes together to grant the 2023 Chevrolet Tahoe a maximum towing capacity of 8,400 pounds. That is a 500-pound increase from the max without the package. The cooling components also mean this Tahoe can tow heavy loads for far longer than its package-free brothers.

New and Vibrant Exterior Paint Options

The 2023 Chevrolet Tahoe has a wider range of available color options than its predecessors. Our favorite is the eye-popping Radiant Red tint coat. Sterling Gray Metallic and Silver Sage Metallic are also new colors for the SUV. Other available paint colors include Sandstone metallic, Summit White, Moonstone Gray Metallic, Dark Moon Blue metallic, Dark Ash metallic, Black Raven, Sage metallic, Caffeine metallic, White Frost Tri-coat, and Perfect Blue Metallic.

The 2023 Chevrolet Tahoe RST Performance Edition

Gone are the days when a large SUV meant a slow SUV. The 2023 version of the Chevrolet Tahoe is available in a new form: the 2023 Chevrolet Tahoe RST Performance Edition. This version of the 2023 Tahoe comes with a massive 6.2-liter V-8 engine providing 433 horsepower and 467 lb-ft of torque. That powerful motor comes with a remarkably smooth-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission. The 2023 Chevrolet Tahoe RST Performance Edition is available in rear-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive configurations, but there really is very little reason to choose the rear-wheel-drive version.

The acceleration this setup allows for is ridiculous for an SUV the size of the Tahoe. This glorious piece of engineering wonder hurtles from zero to 60 in a stunning, double-take-inducing, what-just-happened-generating 5.78 seconds and it does this fully loaded. We’re not talking just the full passenger compliment, but the full cargo and towing weight, too.

This iteration of the 2023 Tahoe has a maximum speed of 124 miles per hour, making it the fastest retail market Tahoe ever. It can go from 60 mph to a full stop within 134 feet. All of these ratings are beyond impressive for an SUV this size.

The outstanding upgrades don’t stop there. The 2023 Chevrolet Tahoe RST Performance Edition also has a slew of useful and sharp-looking interior features. The driver’s display is fully digital, featuring a fuel meter with estimated range, along with meters for your battery charge, oil and engine temp, a clock, a speedometer, a fuel economy display, and readouts for your RPM, external temperature, and the driver assistance.

The driver assistance readout will show the driver where they are in relation to the lines on either side of their lane and display obstacles like speed bumps as the Tahoe moves forward. It also clearly shows whether or not the Super Cruise system is active. The Chevrolet 3 infotainment system in this Tahoe will have a 10.6-inch color touch-screen display in front and a 12.6-inch display in the rear. A two-touch-screen layout for a single infotainment system, each with independent control programming, is nearly unheard of in the industry today.

The 2023 Chevrolet Tahoe can be further set apart from the pack by adding performance parts. The Chevrolet Performance brand line of performance parts can be used to improve almost every aspect of the 2023 Tahoe. Available parts include high-tech fuel injection systems, ultra-precise crank trigger ignitions, engine spread port heads, specialized engine blocks, torque converters, breathers, valve covers, head gaskets, engine control modules, pistons, rings, and more.

Even the spark plug wires can be upgraded with performance part variants.
