Chevrolet Tahoe vs Chevrolet Suburban: Which Full-size Chevy is Right for You?
If you are shopping for a full-sized sport utility vehicle, the odds are that the Chevrolet Tahoe and Chevrolet Suburban are both on your shortlist.
The Suburban is one of the oldest vehicle nameplates in the industry, having been a part of the Chevrolet lineup since 1935. Chevy introduced the Tahoe in the early 1990s as a replacement to the Blazer and as a slightly smaller version of the Suburban.
Both the Tahoe and Suburban have withstood the test of time, continuing uninterrupted for decades while just about every other body-on-frame SUV was laid to rest. These two large Chevrolet SUVs have spent many years being the most popular full-size SUVs because there was simply no competition and while there are some models from other automakers that challenge these two, the Tahoe and Suburban are arguably the best full-sizers ever.
