Larger SUVs allow for a commanding on road presence and have enough room to take the whole group in tow with you on any ride. The J.D. Power Initial Quality Studies are useful in ranking car brands and models using survey responses from new vehicle customers. This year, the Chevy Tahoe was once again at the top of the list, being hailed as the highest-ranked large SUV in its class.
The J.D. Power Initial Quality Study is now in its 36th year, using “problems per 100” (PP100) to indicate the number of issues that arise during early ownership. This most recent study was based on answers from over 84,000 new vehicle customers, taking place between February and May of this year. Finishing just above the GMC Yukon, the Tahoe was ranked at the top of the list for the large SUV segment.
Several other Chevrolet vehicles fared well in this study as well, with other top ranked segment leaders including the Chevy Silverado LD and HD, Chevy Malibu, Chevy Corvette, and the practical Chevy Equinox. This is proof that consumers these days love data driven by high performing results!
With a roomy interior for passengers and cargo, a smooth ride, easy-to-use touchscreen, and powerful diesel engine option, drivers will love Lane Keeping Assist and front and rear parking sensors now standard. There are also enhanced Google-based voice controls for the 10.2-inch infotainment system and the model has seen a redesign that showed big improvements in ride comfort, convenience features, and technology. A family hauler with contest-winning capability and usefulness, the Tahoe remains a proud staple of any growing family or business’s valued and crucial daily drive time!
