GM will begin producing the 2022 Chevy Tahoe and 2022 Chevy Suburban with Automatic Stop/Start after they had been forced to temporarily remove the feature due to the semiconductor chip shortage.
All units produced for the 2022 model year in October until December 12 were not equipped with this useful and energy-saving function. Now that the global supply has slightly seen improvement, GM has been able to re-add Automatic Stop and Start to the Tahoe and Suburban, and all vehicles produced from December 13h forward will include it.
During the pause in production, the feature was removed from all Chevy Tahoe and Suburban models that were equipped with the naturally-aspirated 5.3-Liter L84 V8, or the 6.2-Liter L87 V8, and did not affect models equipped with the 3.0-liter I6 LM2 turbodiesel Duramax. Both the 2022 Chevy Tahoe and Suburban are produced at the GM Arlington Assembly plant in Texas along with the GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade.
The 2022 Chevy Tahoe is a customer favorite for good reason. It offers roomy seating, class-leading fuel economy from the diesel engine, and an ideally expansive cargo area. Now standard in every model for 2022, front parking sensors, lane departure warning, and lane keep assist, and Buckle to Drive feature add extra safety. In every trim except the base level, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and Google infotainment system are now standard. The off-road and wildly popular Z71 trim now receives the optional electronic limited-slip differential and the powerful 6.2-liter V8 engine is available across a few more trim levels.
The 2022 Chevy Suburban is the star on top of the tree at the Powerhouse because of its comfortable ride, roomy interior, and responsive powertrains. It shares its platform with the Silverado pickup truck and ditches the solid rear axle for an entirely new independent suspension. There are also some upgrades for the new model year, adding a digital gauge cluster and bundling in some extra useful driver assistance features. The 2022 Suburban has a massive 41.5 cubic feet of cargo space behind the third row, more than the rival Ford Expedition Max!
