Chevy Tahoe and Suburban Gain Street Look and Wow Factor With RST Special Edition Option

We guarantee that your summer is getting ready to get drastically more exciting: Chevy has just introduced a new special edition for the Suburban and Tahoe: the street-performance Rally Sport Truck. You can opt for a new performance package that ups the ante with a 420-hp, 6.2-L V-8 engine, Magnetic Ride Control with performance calibration, and get the shifting job done with the all-new and very able Hydra-Matic 10L80 10-speed automatic transmission. Looking at the many different types of needs from customers, there are varying combinations of tech features and awesome performance that attracts drivers to these sturdy and spacious dominators of the open road.


The introduction of the RST is specifically honed for those who crave increased performance, and will be available on the Tahoe and Suburban models in the fall of 2017. Heavily inspired by trends in the aftermarket realm, most of the chrome trim has been eliminated for an appearance more geared to stellar street performance. There are also body-color grille surround and door handles, gloss-black grille and mirror caps, black roof rails, Chevy bowties and badging, as well as new window trim. You also get the very cool 22-inch wheels with Bridgestone P285/45R 22 tires to wrap them.

This is the first time a Tahoe will sport the 6.2L V-8, which cranks out an estimated 420 horsepower along wth 460 lb-ft of torque. The engine utilizes the efforts of 3 state-of-the-art technologies: direct injection, Active Fuel Management, and continuously variable valve timing, to make the most of power, efficiency, and torque for the best in performance. Paired with the 6.2L V-8 is an all-new 10-speed automatic transmission, which maximizes engine power during the process of climbing acceleration. Top gear ratio on this transmission is lowered specifically for this make, to improve efficiency by cutting down on revolutions of the engine at 50+ miles per hour.

Don't hold out on the lake outings or any other looming duties you may be filling in on for your contractor friend: the RST Performance Package will offer a towing capacity of 8,400 pounds, and the truck gets up to 60 MPH in just 6 quick seconds. Come down and see why the RST Package will drastically escalate your Suburban or Tahoe Experience: the suspension delivers both improved body-motion control during cornering, and a noticeably more comfortable ride during a long highway cruise.

Chevy has been the best-selling full-size SUV brand for more than 3 decades, and accounted for half of full-size SUV purchases in 2016.
