2022 Chevrolet Suburban Z71

The 2022 Suburban is Chevrolet's full-size SUV, a three-row hauler that seats up to nine and competes with the Ford Expedition and Jeep Wagoneer. The big Suburban drives with surprising composure for its size, and the available Magnetic Ride Control keeps body motions in check on winding roads. Ride comfort is generally plush, though the independent rear suspension can transmit sharp impacts into the cabin over broken pavement. Chevy Safety Assist is standard, adding automatic emergency braking and lane keep assist, while a 10.2-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto comes on most trims. The Z71 is the off-road-oriented Suburban, with a lifted suspension and skid plates that the Premier and High Country trims skip. Its 5.3L Ecotec3 V8 makes 355 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque, routed through a ten-speed automatic and four-wheel drive that handle dirt and snow with ease, though the 16 mpg combined reflects the extra capability. Standard all-terrain tires and hill descent control let you explore unpaved roads without worrying about getting stuck.
