The 2021 Chevy Suburban has hit the ground running this year. Its bold and athletic design makes a statement with every entrance, sporting its bowtie emblem front and center on its huge new grille. This year marks the Suburban’s first-ever use of the Independent Rear Suspension system, which is one of the newest and best features that drivers love about this model.
1. Independent Rear Suspension
Arguably Chevy’s best addition to their vehicles, the Independent Rear Suspension system notably improves the driving experience. It creates a sleeker and substantially more stable rear differential that aids in improving both ride and handling.
The floor of the 2021 Suburban has been lowered 5.3 inches due to the size difference between a traditional axle and the new suspension system. This added space creates a much more luxurious seating experience, expanding legroom and overall cabin space. Dropping the floor also increases the already massive cargo capacity.
2. Increased Cargo Area
The Chevy Suburban has long been known for its large storage area, but the 2021 Suburban surpasses even its own previous generations. This year’s model beats out every competitor with its significantly larger amount of both cargo and passenger space. The recent incorporation of the Independent Rear Suspension system opened up a total maximum cargo area of a stunning 145 cubic feet with both of the rear rows folded down.
3. Strong Towing Abilities
Thanks to the continued innovation among automakers, a family no longer needs to rent a truck to haul a camper or a boat. Large SUVs are being given more capabilities in order to fully utilize their muscle to tow and stabilize their haul. With each year and each generation, the Chevy Suburban continues to get stronger, tougher, and larger. With the right trim level, this vehicle can tow up to 8,300 pounds with ease.
4. Advanced Infotainment System
Chevy has kept their most popular front seat features such as the wireless charging pad and heated and ventilated seats. But for 2021, the Suburban has added even more modern features to offer more comfort and convenience. The integrated head-up display improves driver awareness and the newly redesigned instrument cluster display is now larger and fully digital.
5. More Fuel-Saving Abilities
Large vehicles are not well-known for their fuel efficiency. Chevy recognizes that a vehicle of this size and weight needs ways to save fuel wherever it can. The 2021 Suburban utilizes auto start/stop technology to retain energy and minimize fuel consumption while stopped. The Suburban can also block fuel feeding to the cylinders through cylinder deactivation, helping the vehicle achieve a combined EPA estimated 20 mpg.
Year after year the Chevy Suburban tops the leaderboards as the ideal family car. The 2021 Suburban is powerful, spacious, and fully capable, making this large SUV the best option to transport family or large groups of friends.
