BAY CITY, Mich. -- Chevrolet will be expanding the availability of the 6.2L V-8 engine within its line-up of full-size SUVs with the introduction of the Tahoe and Suburban Premier Plus special editions.
Originally available in the full-size SUV line-up on the 2018 Tahoe RST 6.2L Performance Package, the engine also recently debuted on the 2019 Suburban RST 6.2L Performance Package, and is now available at Chevrolet dealerships nationwide.
All Premier Plus vehicles, as well as Premier RST with the optional 6.2L Performance Package, feature Magnetic Ride Control with performance calibration in addition to a Hydra-Matic 10-speed automatic transmission. Magnetic Ride Control is an active suspension system that "reads" the road every millisecond, triggering dampening changes in the electronically controlled shock absorbers in as little as 10-15 milliseconds, and resulting in improved body-motion control while cornering and an overall more comfortable cruising experience.
The 10-speed automatic transmission on the 2019 Premier Plus special editions offers smaller steps between each ratio to maximize engine power under acceleration. Utilizing a wide 7.39 overall gear ratio spread and lower top gear ratio, the Hydra-Matic transmission is also designed to reduce revolutions at highway speeds.
“Our customers have shown strong demand for both Tahoe and Suburban with the 6.2L V-8 option,” said Sandor Piszar, director of Chevrolet Trucks Marketing and Advertising. “Thirty-six percent of all Chevy full-size SUV special edition models are now sold with this engine. Premier Plus gives both Suburban and Tahoe customers another option to choose from with several added premium touches.”
Also featured on the 2019 Chevrolet Premier Plus special edition vehicles is a unique interior with heated and ventilated black/mahogany, leather-appointed seats against a jet black trim surround. Along with 22-inch polished wheels, this premium two-tone interior makes its line-up debut on the 2019 Premier Plus special editions.
Other appearance features include gold "bowtie" emblems, chrome nameplate badging, a head-up display and 8-inch diagonal cluster, cross rails, chrome power steps and exhaust tip, and Chevrolet-branded cargo organizer.
In terms of connectivity, the 2019 Premier Plus special editions include a 12-month data plan of a 4G LTE WiFi hotspot.
The 6.2L V-8 engine now available on the 2019 Premier Plus special edition Tahoe and Suburban is capable of 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft. of torque. It also delivers three state-of-the-art technologies including direct injection, Active Fuel Management, and continuously variable valve timing in order for drivers to get the most out of power, torque, and efficiency across a broad range of operating conditions.
