Both rear-wheel and all-wheel drive are available and 6-speed automatic transmission makes the only choice transmission-wise.

Styling – Inside and Outside look

Being a prolonged SUV with pickup-based body, Suburban never lost its boxy look. However, new model has been greatly modernized and looks much better than it did before. Front end fascia proudly bears double rectangular chrome-stripe grille and double-deck headlights on a high nose. You can clearly notice Silverado’s influence from its profile as rear pillars are far away from the tailgate. Vertical tail-lights and wide cargo door are just another truck-based features which come in handy while loading your bigger possessions into the Suburban.

Cabin had also been revamped in a much better way so that average user can really appreciate Suburban’s height and comfort. Three rows of seats offer space for up to nine people and considering the sheer length of Suburban, there could have been even more. Seats are furbished with leather from LT model, onward, but most of the people would expect leather even with base model. Heavy dashboard has contemporary design with plenty of overlapping parts and a heavy instrument panel in the middle. While base model gets 4.2-inch display, higher tiers benefit from an 8-inch touch screen with Chevrolet MyLink infotainment system.
