When equipped with the 5.3-liter V8, rear-wheel drive, and the Max Trailering package, the Suburban has a max towing capacity of 8,300 pounds. The diesel with four-wheel drive gets about 7,800 pounds.
A Roomy Proposition in the Chevy Suburban
Whether you need passenger or cargo room, the Suburban has you covered. It seats up to eight, though there is room for nine with a front bench seat. Second-row captain's chairs drop seating options to seven, but make up for it with easier access in the third row.
Cargo space is also plentiful, and loading is easy, thanks to a flat, low-load floor. Automatic climate control, folding second- and third-row seats, and multiple power outlets round out the comfort, and as you move up in trims, you can pile on the luxury with perforated leather, real wood trim, and unique color combos.
Are the Tech and Infotainment Systems in the Suburban Modern?
The Suburban offers the latest in tech and now features a 17.7-inch infotainment touchscreen and an 11-inch digital gauge cluster with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, wireless phone charging, and a Wi-Fi hotspot.
Bose premium audio and a dual-screen rear entertainment setup are also available.
