When it comes to spacious, capable, and dependable family SUVs, very few vehicles have made a name for themselves like the iconic Chevrolet Suburban. People shopping for their next family vehicle often naturally gravitate toward the Suburban simply because it’s so well-known for providing buyers with exactly what they’re looking for, and the 2018 Chevrolet Suburban is no exception.
You’re going to love the 2018 Chevrolet Suburban because it more than lives up to the expectations its name inspires.
A Big Engine for Big Power
The 2018 Chevrolet Suburban comes standard with a powerful 5.3-litre EcoTec3 V-8 engine. This engine provides you with an astounding 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. All of that adds up to a towing capacity that maxes out at a whopping 8,300 lbs. If you think all of that power is going to suck down fuel at an alarming rate, think again. The 2018 Suburban boasts an impressive 16 mpg on city streets and up to 23 mpg on highways. Those numbers may not seem like much but, when you consider you’re looking at a full-size SUV with a V-8 engine, they’re actually pretty impressive.
More Room Than You’ll Know How to Use
Most people look at vehicles this large because size is important to them. Whether you’re concerned with making room for a large family or you need to maximize your cargo space, the 2018 Suburban has you more than covered. With seating that can fit eight passengers comfortably, you’ll have a hard time finding enough people to fill this SUV to capacity.
Cargo space is equally as impressive, starting at 39.3 cubic feet with all of the rear seats up. Depending on how much additional space you need though, you can configure your rear seats to provide up to a maximum of 121.7 cubic feet. If you need much more than that, you may need to consider renting a moving van for the weekend.
Connectivity for Everyone
When it comes to connected mobile technologies, it’s virtually impossible to please everybody due to the variable nature of devices like smartphones and built-in infotainment systems. The 2018 Chevrolet Suburban addresses this issue by providing multiple levels of onboard connectivity.
If you’d like to use the vehicle’s built-in interface, you’ll have instant access to Bluetooth connectivity and available onboard navigation. If you’d like to access the navigation and streaming apps on your phone, however, this is also made possible thanks to support for both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Once you’ve paired your smartphone of choice to the Suburban, you’ll be able to access all of your favorite apps through the vehicle’s touch-screen interface, making life a lot easier for people who prefer Android or iOS connectivity.
There is no denying that the Suburban is one of the most recognized names in full-sized SUVs and there’s a good reason for that. The 2018 Chevrolet Suburban more than lives up to its name and, if you haven’t checked one out for yourself lately, you’re going to want to head to a local Chevy dealership to take one out for a test drive as soon as you get a chance.
