Basic Information and History

The Chevrolet Suburban is one of the automotive world's oldest model names still in production, with roots dating back to 1935. The 2016 model year belongs to the twelfth generation, built on GM's K2XX platform introduced for the 2015 model year. With this generation, the Suburban received an entirely new body, direct-injected EcoTec3 engines, and a significantly more upscale interior. Under the hood sits the 5.3-litre V8 with direct injection and Active Fuel Management, which shuts off four cylinders under light load to reduce fuel consumption. The engine is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission and a four-wheel drive system with an electronically controlled transfer case, high and low range, and the option to run on rear-wheel drive only. The LTZ trim also includes Magnetic Ride Control, i.e. electronically controlled magnetic dampers, which gives a noticeably different road feel compared to the simpler trim levels.
