2027 Chevrolet Tahoe Trims and Pricing
The 2027 Chevrolet Tahoe is offered in six retail trims — LS, LT, RST, Z71, Premier, and High Country — ranging from $64,295 MSRP† for the rear-wheel-drive LS up to $87,295 MSRP† for the four-wheel-drive High Country. What separates them is interior materials, technology content, driver-assist availability, and which engines you can order. This guide walks the lineup difference by difference so you can see exactly what each step up the ladder buys. For a wider look at the model, see our 2027 Chevy Tahoe overview.
†Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for new vehicles includes manufacturer and distributor options and delivery, process and handling fees, which may be subject to change at any time. MSRP excludes taxes, title, license and dealer installed options, accessories, fees and charges. MSRP is not the dealer advertised price. Dealer price will vary. The dealer sets the final price.
What Trim Levels Are Available for the 2027 Chevrolet Tahoe?
Six retail trims make up the 2027 Tahoe lineup, and the ladder itself carries over from 2026. Each one adds a defined set of equipment over the trim below it.
Tahoe LS
The LS is the entry point and the value case. It carries premium cloth seating, a 17.7-inch center touchscreen with Google built-in, an 11-inch digital driver information center, 18-inch Bright Silver-painted aluminum wheels, 5G Wi-Fi hotspot capability, and tri-zone automatic climate control. It is also the only trim that offers the front 40/20/40 split-bench seat, which raises total capacity to nine passengers. The LS is the only trim restricted to a single engine.
Tahoe LT
The LT is where comfort content begins: leather-appointed seating, heated front seats, a programmable power liftgate, and wireless phone charging. It is also the first trim where the Duramax turbo-diesel and Super Cruise¶ become available.
Tahoe RST
The RST is the sport-appearance trim, with a monochromatic black grille, blacked-out exterior treatment, and a Jet Black interior with Victory Red accents. New for 2027, heated and ventilated front seats with power lumbar for both front occupants are standard. Twenty-four-inch wheels are available, and the RST is the first trim where the 6.2L V8 can be ordered.
The RST Performance Edition is also new for 2027. It pairs the 6.2L V8 with Chevrolet Performance induction and exhaust for 433 horsepower and 467 lb-ft of torque and adds Brembo heavy-duty front brakes plus available Four-Corner Air Ride Adaptive Suspension. Chevrolet does not publish a separate starting price for it, and several trailering, technology and entertainment packages are not compatible with it.
Tahoe Z71
The Z71 is the off-road trim and the only Tahoe sold exclusively with four-wheel drive. Its hardware is what sets it apart from the similarly priced RST.
Autotrac two-speed active transfer case
20-inch all-terrain Goodyear Wrangler Territory tires
Aluminum skid plate
Red recovery hooks
Black tubular assist steps
High approach angle front fascia
Four-Corner Air Ride Adaptive Suspension is available, and Hill Descent Control¶ is standard. The Z71 is the one trim where Super Cruise¶ is not offered.
Tahoe Premier
The Premier is the comfort-first luxury step, adding perforated leather seating, heated second-row bucket seats, a Power Sliding Center Console, a power telescoping steering column, uplevel LED headlamps and taillamps with animated lighting, and the Bose Centerpoint Surround Sound 10-speaker system. For 2027, Magnetic Ride Control is standard on Premier with four-wheel drive.
Tahoe High Country
The High Country sits at the top and is the only trim with the 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 as standard equipment. It adds real wood cabin decor, a 15-inch Head-Up Display¶, a Rear Camera Mirror, Magnetic Ride Control, a unique High Country signature grille and interior stitching, and available 24-inch high-gloss Black wheels. It is the only trim that cannot be ordered with the 5.3L V8.

2027 Chevrolet Tahoe Pricing by Trim and Drivetrain
Starting MSRP by Trim
| Trim | Standard Engine | Rear-Wheel Drive† | Four-Wheel Drive† |
|---|---|---|---|
| LS | 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 | $64,295 MSRP | $67,295 MSRP |
| LT | 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 | $67,295 MSRP | $70,295 MSRP |
| RST | 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 | $72,695 MSRP | $75,695 MSRP |
| Z71 | 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 | Not offered — four-wheel drive only | $74,295 MSRP |
| Premier | 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 | $79,195 MSRP | $82,195 MSRP |
| High Country | 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 | Not offered — four-wheel drive only | $87,295 MSRP |
†Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for new vehicles includes manufacturer and distributor options and delivery, process and handling fees, which may be subject to change at any time. MSRP excludes taxes, title, license and dealer installed options, accessories, fees and charges. MSRP is not the dealer advertised price. Dealer price will vary. The dealer sets the final price.
What Four-Wheel Drive Costs
Four-wheel drive adds a flat $3,000 MSRP† wherever it is optional — LS, LT, RST, and Premier — and it is included as standard equipment on the Z71 and High Country. That consistency makes one comparison worth pausing on: the LS with four-wheel drive and the LT with rear-wheel drive both land at $67,295 MSRP†. At that price the question is traction versus content — all-weather capability on the base trim, or leather-appointed seating, heated front seats, wireless charging, and Super Cruise¶ availability without it.
The widest gap on the ladder sits between Premier and High Country, which is where the standard 6.2L V8 and the top-tier interior arrive. The narrowest sits between RST and Z71, which is effectively a choice between street styling and off-road hardware at similar money.

What Changed Across the Trim Lineup for 2027
The 2027 Tahoe is a targeted update rather than a redesign, and most of the changes move equipment down the ladder — which is exactly what matters when you are choosing between trims.
| Change for 2027 | Trims Affected |
|---|---|
| Four-wheel drive becomes standard; rear-wheel drive discontinued | High Country |
| 17.7-inch touchscreen with Google built-in, 5G Wi-Fi hotspot, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto become standard | Entire lineup, including LS |
| Heated and ventilated front seats with power lumbar become standard | RST |
| Magnetic Ride Control becomes standard | Premier with four-wheel drive |
| Super Cruise¶ can be paired with the Duramax turbo-diesel | LT, RST, Premier, High Country |
| RST Performance Edition added, with a 433-horsepower 6.2L V8 | RST |
| LS Custom Edition discontinued | LS |

Interior Materials and Comfort by Trim
Seating Materials and Seat Comfort
Seating material is the clearest dividing line in the Tahoe cabin. The LS starts on premium cloth, the LT introduces leather-appointed seating, and the Premier moves to perforated leather. The High Country layers real wood decor and its own interior stitching on top of that.
Seat comfort climbs on its own schedule, and the 2027 change matters here: heated and ventilated front seats became standard on the RST, a combination that previously required stepping up to Premier.
Seating Capacity by Trim
Passenger count also moves by trim, and not in the direction most shoppers expect. The cheapest trim seats the most people: the LS is the only one that can seat nine, by way of the front bench, while the two most expensive trims seat seven as standard because captain’s chairs replace the second-row bench.
| Trim | Seating Material | Front Seat Comfort | Second Row | Standard Seating |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LS | Premium cloth | Not available | Bench | 8 (9 with front bench option) |
| LT | Leather-appointed | Heated front | Bench; captain’s chairs available | 8 (7 with captain’s chairs) |
| RST | Leather-appointed | Heated and ventilated front | Bench; captain’s chairs available | 8 (7 with captain’s chairs) |
| Z71 | Leather-appointed | Heated and ventilated front | Bench; captain’s chairs available | 8 (7 with captain’s chairs) |
| Premier | Perforated leather | Heated and ventilated front | Heated bucket seats, standard | 7 |
| High Country | Perforated leather with real wood decor | Heated and ventilated front | Heated bucket seats, standard | 7 |

Technology Upgrades as You Move Up the Lineup
Because the 17.7-inch touchscreen with Google built-in, the 5G Wi-Fi hotspot, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are now standard lineup-wide, the technology trim walk starts higher than it used to. Shoppers no longer need to reach the LT for a connected cabin.
What still moves with trim is charging, audio, and driver displays. The table below shows where each one enters the lineup.
| Feature | LS | LT | RST | Z71 | Premier | High Country |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 17.7-inch touchscreen with Google built-in, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, 5G Wi-Fi hotspot, 11-inch driver information center | Standard | Standard | Standard | Standard | Standard | Standard |
| Wireless phone charging | Not available | Standard | Standard | Standard | Standard | Standard |
| Bose Centerpoint Surround Sound 10-speaker audio | Not available | Available | Available | Available | Standard | Standard |
| 15-inch Head-Up Display¶ and Rear Camera Mirror | Not available | Available in a package | Available in a package | Available in a package | Available in a package | Standard |
| Rear-seat entertainment, dual 12.6-inch displays | Not available | Not available | Available | Available | Available | Available |

Driver-Assist Features by Trim
Standard on Every Trim
Chevrolet Safety Assist content is standard across the entire 2027 Tahoe lineup, so the driver-assist trim walk is narrower than the interior one. Adaptive Cruise Control¶, HD Surround Vision¶, Blind-Spot Intervention¶, Forward Collision Warning with Automatic Braking¶, Lane Departure Warning¶, Pedestrian Detection¶, Rear Automatic Braking¶, and an Automated Parking System¶ are all standard beginning with the LS.
Super Cruise Availability by Trim
The feature that actually separates the trims is Super Cruise¶, Chevrolet’s hands-free driver assistance technology.
| Trim | Super Cruise¶ | Hill Descent Control¶ |
|---|---|---|
| LS | Not offered | Not available |
| LT | Available | Not available |
| RST | Available | Not available |
| Z71 | Not offered | Standard |
| Premier | Available | Not available |
| High Country | Available | Not available |
That split is worth knowing before cross-shopping the Z71 against the RST, since the two sit close in price but only one can be ordered with hands-free driving. New for 2027, Super Cruise¶ can also be paired with the Duramax turbo-diesel.

§Maximum towing and payload capacity figures are based on properly equipped vehicles and vary by configuration. Do not exceed any weight rating. See your owner’s manual and the vehicle’s door-jamb label for specific capacities.
Engine Availability by Trim
The LS is the only trim locked to a single engine, and the High Country is the only one that cannot be ordered with the 5.3L V8. The RST, Z71, and Premier are the three trims that offer all three engines.
| Engine | LS | LT | RST | Z71 | Premier | High Country |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 | Standard | Standard | Standard | Standard | Standard | Not available |
| 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 | Not available | Not available | Available | Available | Available | Standard |
| 6.2L EcoTec3 V8, RST Performance Edition | Not available | Not available | Available | Not available | Not available | Not available |
| 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel | Not available | Available | Available | Available | Available | Available |
Engine Upgrade Pricing by Configuration
Stepping away from a trim’s standard engine changes the price, and the amount varies by trim and drivetrain.
| Trim and Drivetrain | Engine | Starting Price† |
|---|---|---|
| LT, rear-wheel drive | 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel | $72,790 MSRP |
| LT, four-wheel drive | 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel | $75,915 MSRP |
| RST, rear-wheel drive | 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel | $78,235 MSRP |
| RST, rear-wheel drive | 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 | $81,120 MSRP |
| RST, four-wheel drive | 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 | $85,245 MSRP |
| Z71, four-wheel drive | 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel | $79,835 MSRP |
| Z71, four-wheel drive | 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 | $84,730 MSRP |
| Premier, rear-wheel drive | 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 | $83,655 MSRP |
| Premier, four-wheel drive | 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 | $86,780 MSRP |
| High Country, four-wheel drive | 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel | $85,795 MSRP |
†Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for new vehicles includes manufacturer and distributor options and delivery, process and handling fees, which may be subject to change at any time. MSRP excludes taxes, title, license and dealer installed options, accessories, fees and charges. MSRP is not the dealer advertised price. Dealer price will vary. The dealer sets the final price.
One result in that table runs against expectation. On the High Country, the Duramax turbo-diesel starts at $85,795 MSRP† while the standard 6.2L V8 starts at $87,295 MSRP† — on the top trim, the diesel is the less expensive engine, not the upgrade. Chevrolet also offers the Duramax on the RST with four-wheel drive and on the Premier in both drivetrains; starting prices for those three configurations are not published, so ask our team for current configuration pricing.
Towing Capacity by Trim
Towing is the one place where the trim walk barely matters. Every 2027 Tahoe is rated to tow, and the maximum figure of 8,400 pounds§ comes from the standard 5.3L V8 with rear-wheel drive and the available Max Trailering Package — not from the larger engines. Both the 6.2L V8 and the Duramax are rated at 8,200 pounds§. In other words, no trim out-tows another on engine alone, and the base powertrain is the one that reaches the highest number. For the full configuration breakdown, see our 2027 Chevy Tahoe towing capacity guide.
