Whether you’re in need of posh family transport or a rugged adventurer, the 2022 Chevy Tahoe delivers in a major way. This full-size SUV is big on comfort, with a roomy cabin and a long list of luxury options. And it’s also a rugged performer, delivering a range of powerful engine options and plenty of off-road potential.
What’s new in the 2022 Chevy Tahoe?
The latest Tahoe gets a few tech upgrades. For starters, two safety systems are now standard equipment: lane-keeping assist and front and rear parking sensors. And the infotainment system, which includes a 10.2-inch central touchscreen, now includes Google-based voice controls.
Why choose the 2022 Chevy Tahoe?
This three-row SUV is a favorite among families who crave adventure. With seating for up to eight passengers (second-row captain’s chairs drop seating capacity to seven), the Tahoe can transport big families and their friends. Six trim levels offer a range of luxury features, which means you can balance what you want to spend with the creature comforts you crave.
And, as a truck-based SUV, the Tahoe is much more capable than a car-based crossover. Its sturdy SUV chassis helps you tow more weight and travel further off-road than a crossover. If you’ve got trails to explore and a big camper to transport, this Chevy SUV is the right choice for you.
How much can the 2022 Chevy Tahoe tow? What’s under the hood?
Properly equipped, the Tahoe can tow up to 8,400 pounds. That’s pretty impressive, even for this rugged segment. There’s a wide range of boats and campers that fits the Tahoe’s towing capacity, making it a prime pick for families with hefty toys.
Towing capacity varies according to powertrain, however. There are a few engines available for the Tahoe, all of which are designed to create a smooth, powerful performance. When paired with the Max Trailering package, the base 5.3-liter V8 helps you tow maximum weight. Add this package to a Tahoe with the turbo-diesel engine and you can tow up to 8,200 pounds. With the 6.2-liter V8, the Max Trailering package helps you tow up to 8,200 pounds.

With its rich, three-row cabin, rugged capabilities and massive towing potential, the Tahoe is a popular choice in the full-size SUV segment. And, starting at $52,000, it’s also very competitively priced. The price does go up as you climb the trim levels or add optional features, so that’s something to keep in mind as you take these SUVs out for a test drive.
