The Bottom Line: Here are the non luxury full size SUVs, in sales order, for the first three months of this year: Chevy Tahoe, Ford Expedition, GMC Yukon, Nissan Armada and Chevy Suburban. GM holds 3 of the top 5 sales positions in the full size SUV class, and the Chevy Tahoe is the best selling full size SUV in the United States.
In 1995 the Chevy Tahoe was envisioned to be a multi purpose family vehicle, with the versatility to tow a trailer, go off road, and take the family on a road trip. That quickly led to the Chevy Tahoe becoming the best selling full size SUV in America, a sales title it has held for 19 consecutive years.
To stay competitive, and at the top of the sales charts, GM totally redesigned all their large SUV's for model year 2021. New interiors, new sheet metal, new options, and new engines and drive trains, all engineered to be more comfortable, capable and efficient. Read that to be good looking, with the best technology, and better in gas mileage and emissions.
The all new for 2021 Chevy Tahoe gets new sheetmetal, more interior space, and an independent rear suspension, that help bring this three row SUVinto the 21st century.
The 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe Z71 now features more unique styling and off road performance content than ever before. Now a stand alone trim package following the LS, LT, RST, Premier, and High Country, the Z71 off road package features a rugged high clearance front fascia that provides a greatly improved approach angle.
This week Chevrolet sent me a 2021 Chevy Tahoe Z71 4WD 4 wheel drive SUV sport utility vehicle to test drive and review. The base price starts at $59,200. The options on this new SUV are: the Z71 Off Road Package for $5,735, the Rear Media and Navigation Package for $2,490, the 2nd Row Bucket Seats with Power Release for $370, and the Power Sliding Floor Console for $350. The total MSRP manufactures suggested retail price, including the $1,295 destination charge, minus the $500 Z71 Off Road Package discount, came to $68,940.

Luxury leather interior, check, off road ability with magnetic ride control, check, technology connectivity with voice recognition, check.

The Z71 off road package adds the performance and mechanical ability to make the Chevy Tahoe a real pleasure to drive, on and off road. With the power, stability, comfort and technology options, to the safety and security packages, driving the new Tahoe is more fun, safe and secure.
