In its home market, the Chevrolet Tahoe is a huge success and easily outsold all competitors in its price range. Over the past year, about 100 thousand brand-new cars have found their owners. The change in the generation of such a bestseller is always an important event for General Motors’ concern. In mid-December of outgoing 2019, the manufacturer introduced a new fifth generation.
It received significant differences in technical terms and a redrawn appearance. It will not be difficult to distinguish the model from the previous generation. It adopts the “two-story” style of the headlamp optics from its sister Silverado. Unlike the pickup, here, it is double only visually.
