Balancing Boughs of Holly + Your Budget: Which 2023 Chevy Tahoe Trim Level is Right for you?

The 2023 Chevy Tahoe is one of the most popular full-size SUVs here at West Chevy in Knoxville, and it comes with many practical and luxurious features that daily drivers love. There are trim options for every budget, and we wanted to provide a close-up look at each here on the blog. 

The LS Trim is the entry-level base option and comes with an 8-inch touchscreen display, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a tri-zone climate control system. The powertrain shows up prepped for duty and determined with its 5.3-liter V8 paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel drive is included as standard, and drivers are offered the opportunity to upgrade to a 4-wheel drive to properly prepare for inclement weather. 

The LT Trim includes a 10.2-inch touchscreen and an eye-pleasing 12-inch digital instrument cluster. Loading will be a breeze while making use of the hand-free liftgate, and you won’t have any issues staying consistently connected with wireless phone charging capability. Enjoying the scenery with fully optimized sounds will be an excellent form of holiday treat to boot, as the premium 9-speaker Bose system is an expertly engineered treat for the senses. 

The RST Trim sees sleek performance edging its presence into the already-awesome Tahoe picture and is equipped with the 5.3-liter V8 with the option to nudge up to the 6.2-liter that cranks out 433 horsepower. After the “sleigh bells and whistles” are all said and done, the fully equipped RST model is the fastest Tahoe to ever roll confidently off the line. The Z71 Trim comes equipped to take on the many challenges that off-roading chucks in your path, with enhanced ground clearance, front-mounted skid plate for protection, and 20-inch all-terrain tires. 

The Premier Trim makes the push to full-on luxury status, with the same goods under the hood but nicer equipment and interior. You’ll be aptly surrounded by the upper-level comfort of leather seats, a 10-speaker premium stereo system from Bose, and the durable convenience of power-operated second and 3rd-row seats. The drive will also encounter the futuristic touch of the autonomous with the festive and hands-free holiday goodness of Super Cruise, navigating you safely and intuitively on many pre-mapped streets and highways nationwide. 

The High-Country Trim provides the necessary fine-element touches to render the Tahoe a fully-fledged formal event and a capable weekender’s SUV. There are leather seats in the front two rows, heated and ventilated seats in the first row, and a very striking and current wood trim design. You can also add 22-inch wheels and exclusive badging! Whether it’s time to haul around a winning soccer team or a week’s worth of overland gear, there’s plenty of room here for your passengers along with their cargo!
