2018 Chevrolet Tahoe | CarGurus Test Drive Review

The 2018 Chevrolet Tahoe is a big, powerful, and imposing SUV—just as it’s been for years. But with the smoother-riding, more fuel-efficient, and more spacious (if you can believe it) Chevy Traverse being sold for thousands less, is this long-tenured SUV still the best option?
If you need to tow some serious weight, the Tahoe is a better option than the Traverse or other 3-row crossovers. That’s largely thanks to a body-on-frame construction and a choice of two rumbling V8 engines. The 5.3-liter V8 makes a respectable 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, but the 6.2-liter V8 cashes the checks that the Tahoe’s bold styling writes. 420 hp and 460 lb-ft will get the Tahoe up to speed in a hurry.
Still, the body-on-frame engineering that helps boost the Tahoe’s towing capacity restricts its interior dimensions. The higher load floor, combined with folding (rather than removable) third-row seats means that this giant SUV offers less cargo space than the Traverse.
An impressive MyLink infotainment system, comfortable front seats, and access to advance safety technology (not to mention the peace-of-mind that comes with driving a vehicle of this Corolla-crushing size) still has the Tahoe on many families’ shopping lists.
