Three Engines and an 8,400-Pound Towing Ceiling

Towing Equipment
The available Max Trailering Package adds an integrated trailer brake controller and extra-capacity cooling. On four-wheel-drive models it also adds a two-speed active transfer case and Hill Descent Control. An in-vehicle trailering app and up to 14 available camera views help with hitching and lane awareness.
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.
RST Performance Edition
Buyers chasing output rather than torque can look at the RST Performance Edition. It pairs the 6.2L V8 with Chevrolet Performance induction and exhaust systems for 433 horsepower and 467 lb-ft, along with Brembo heavy-duty front brakes.
Seating for Eight — or Nine
The Tahoe seats eight in standard form. Second-row captain’s chairs drop capacity to seven and open a walk-through path to the third row. They are available on the LT, RST, and Z71, and standard on the Premier and High Country. An available front bench seat on the LS raises capacity to nine.
Cabin Dimensions
| Measurement | Front | Second Row | Third Row |
|---|---|---|---|
| Headroom | 42.3 in. | 39 in. | 38 in. |
| Legroom | 44.5 in. | 42 in. | 35 in. |
| Shoulder room | 65.6 in. | 65 in. | 63 in. |
Third-row space is tight for tall adults on long drives. It works well for children and teenagers.
Cargo room scales with the seating. There are 25.5 cubic feet behind the third row and 77.5 cubic feet behind the second row. Fold both rear rows and the Tahoe opens to 122.7 cubic feet. Families who need more should compare the Tahoe against the longer-wheelbase Suburban, which stretches the same platform for extra room behind the third row.
Technology: 17.7-Inch Touchscreen and Google Built-In
Every 2027 Tahoe comes with a 17.7-inch diagonal center touchscreen and an 11-inch Driver Information Center. Google built-in is standard. It brings Google Maps and Google Assistant to the dash without a phone connection, and Google Gemini is available with Google built-in compatibility.
Wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto are standard for drivers who prefer their own phone interface. OnStar Basics provides access to core OnStar services for eight years.
Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance is available on the LT, RST, Premier, and High Country, and it now works with the Duramax diesel. The High Country adds the 15-inch diagonal Head-Up Display and Rear Camera Mirror as standard equipment.

The Tahoe carries a standard suite of safety and driver assistance features:
- Automatic Emergency Braking
- Intersection Automatic Emergency Braking

Driver-assistance and advanced safety systems are supplemental aids and are not substitutes for safe and attentive driving.

Always keep your hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road. See your owner’s manual for system limitations and details.
