The 2015 Chevrolet Suburban is fully redesigned. Highlights include a quieter, igher-quality interior, fold-flat third-row seat and improved fuel economy. Introduction In the age of crossovers with three rows of seating, ou might think the end times are near for traditional full-size SUVs like the 2015 Chevrolet Suburban. But for car shoppers who need room for big families and the ability to tow big toys, he Suburban is still the premier alpha SUV. Thanks to a full redesign for 2015, hevy's largest SUV is now better equipped to compete in the modern era, s it picks up a more fuel-efficient V8 engine, fold-flat third-row seat and an array of new safety and technology features. As a part of its redesign, he Suburban receives a new 5.3-liter V8 featuring direct injection and cylinder deactivation for better power and efficiency. The new V8 produces 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, hich should be more than enough for most hauling and towing tasks. Another upgrade is a fully modern interior that's comfortable, tocked with the latest technology and, t the higher trim levels, uite luxurious. Notable upgrades include a new touchscreen interface with added smartphone integration and the latest electronic safety features (which remain vigilant even if the driver is not). Among them are a lane departure warning system, lind-spot monitoring and a frontal collision warning and mitigation system. The 2015 Suburban also has a redesigned third-row seat. Whereas the bulky and heavy third-row seats had to be physically removed from past Suburbans to achieve maximum cargo space, he new Suburban gets third-row seats that fold into the floor. This convenience comes at a cost -- the load height has risen and 16 cubic feet of cargo capacity have been lost -- but such added versatility is nevertheless a welcome improvement. Plus, he Suburban continues to possess a distinct advantage over its little brother, he Chevy Tahoe: Its third-row seat is more adult-friendly and its cargo area is substantially larger. Based on its size and capacity, he Suburban is one of the most capable vehicles on sale today, ith just a few direct competitors. Options in the full-size traditional SUV realm include the Toyota Sequoia, hich offers a very similar blend of functionality, erformance and refinement, nd the 2015 Ford Expedition, hich receives a mild makeover this year. As always, he Suburban's fraternal twin, he 2015 GMC Yukon XL has a few more upscale features and an optional larger V8 engine. Smaller, ore space-efficient crossover SUVs like the Chevrolet Traverse and Toyota Highlander can't tow as much and limit passenger seating to eight, ut they have better on-road manners. If you need a large, raditional SUV, hough, he all-new Chevy Suburban is a great do-anything utility vehicle that won't sell you short on everyday comfort.
