With this tech, the new model is designed to keep it on top. In one word the Chevrolet Tahoe continues to dominate the full-size category.
2019 Chevy Tahoe Robust Look and Better Safety
Like all the rest of its generation, the 2019 Chevy Tahoe look is based on the GMT K2 platform, which is also used by GMJ Yukon, Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Suburban and others. It is expected that the latest Tahoe will get a couple of exterior colors more than its predecessor, although it is not yet known which colors are concerned. The details on the front and rear that have been chrome-plated so far will be probably colored same as the body or black. The musculature will be strong reflecting the safety and comfort of driving this SUV. It is expected that the wheels will have a size of as much as 22 inches.
The interior will, as well as the exterior, get several more colors than before and will have different combinations. This large SUV with three rows of seats will also have three-zone climate control. The seats will have a lot of options to set up for the most comfortable ride. The Bose sound system is expected and it will have controls on steering wheel. The leather will prevail and other materials are hard plastic and wood. Safety system will be one of the best. The best features are emergency braking, blind spot warning, back up the camera and other.

The 5.3-liter V8 engine with high-tech fuel injection is preset to enhances its fuel economy that is 16/23 mpg for the (2WD) and 16/22 mpg for the (4WD). It produces 355 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 383 lb-ft of torque at 4,100 rpm. This type of engine will be paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission that is smooth and seamless.

The optional Tahoe RST performance version comes with a powertrain that will give more power to the 6.2-liter V8 engine. This one will give amazing 420 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 460 lb-ft of torque at 4,100 rpm.

The new Chevrolet Tahoe will introduce a custom-made Midnight Edition. In this version of the full-size SUV, we will see a shadow black color all over the vehicle. However, the interior is not offering space for more than five passengers. But, on the other hand, that increases cargo space to 112 cubic feet with all seats folded. The regular layout offers 54 cubic feet.
The exterior is also customized with 18-inch wheels. Of course, these are also painted in black. The darkened grille and side steps are unusual for regular 2019 Chevy Tahoe. Under the hood is the same 5.3-liter V-8 unit with same drive options and gearbox.
