Overview

A staple of the Chevrolet brand since 1935, the Suburban continues to offer room and capability as only an extra-large SUV can. Buyers who aren't intimidated by the sheer size of the 2019 Chevy Suburban will be rewarded with a rugged, all-purpose vehicle that feels like home.

What's New for 2019

With the introduction of the RST Performance Edition on Premier models, a 6.2-liter V8 engine and 10-speed transmission are now available.

Chevrolet Suburban

Choosing Your Chevrolet Suburban

The Suburban is one of the few vehicles than can seat up to nine passengers – and does so with 39.9 cubic feet left over for cargo. That space grows to 76.7 cubic feet with the third row folded, and balloons to 121.7 cubic feet with both rows out of the way.

Most models are powered by a 5.3-liter V8 engine, good for 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed automatic transmission does the shifting. The Suburban is EPA-rated at 15 miles per gallon city, 22 mpg highway, and 18 combined with rear-wheel drive, or 14/21/16 mpg (city/highway/combined) with four-wheel drive, which is a $3,000 option.

A 6.2-liter V8 is available on the top-trim Premier only. The larger engine puts out 420 hp and 460 lb-ft of torque, and comes with a 10-speed automatic transmission. Models so equipped are EPA-rated at 14/23/17 mpg with RWD or 14/20/16 mpg with AWD.

With either engine, towing capacity reaches 8,300 pounds with the available Max Trailering Package ($300 to $780, depending on configuration). All Suburbans can get an Interior Protection Package ($250) with all-weather floor and cargo mats. A dual-screen second-row video entertainment is also available across the board for $1,995. A Theft Protection Package can be added to the LT and Premier for $410.

As before, the Suburban comes in three trim levels:

Chevrolet Suburban

LS

Priced from $51,895 (all prices include a $1,295 destination fee), the Suburban LS comes nicely equipped with features like remote start, tri-zone climate control, rear parking sensors, power heated side mirrors, a power driver seat, an eight-inch infotainment touchscreen, and six-speaker audio system. The LS rolls on 17-inch steel wheels.

The available front bench seat ($250) boosts seating capacity to nine. The All-Weather Package ($2,280) provides 20-inch aluminum wheels, body-color side moldings, all-weather floor and cargo mats, and the Max Trailering Package; buyers save $600 versus adding these items separately. For safety, the Enhanced Driver Alert Package ($695) tacks on automatic emergency braking, lane keeping assist, automatic high beams, power-adjustable pedals, and a vibrating alert in the driver seat.

Chevrolet Suburban

LT

The $56,895 LT gets the Enhanced Driver Alert Package as standard, plus leather upholstery, power front seats with heat and memory, a power liftgate, a nine-speaker Bose sound system, and 18-inch aluminum wheels.

The LT Luxury Package ($2,860) adds power-folding second and third rows, heated second-row seats, power-folding side mirrors, a power heated steering wheel, keyless start, a hands-free tailgate, fog lights, front parking sensors, and blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert. The Sun, Entertainment and Destinations Package ($2,860) outfits the LT with navigation, a sunroof, and a single-screen Blu-Ray/DVD player for the third row. The Texas Edition ($3,110) gets the contents of the Luxury Package, plus the Max Trailering Package, 20-inch wheels, and special badging.

There are three design packages for the LT. The sporty RST Edition ($2,920) carries 22-inch gloss black wheels, black exterior accents, and a smooth-ride suspension. The LT Signature Package ($5,435) gets the same suspension, but with 20-inch chrome wheels and special chrome exterior trim. The LT Midnight Edition ($1,585) features an all-black exterior with matching 20-inch wheels.

LT models equipped with four-wheel drive can get the Z71 Off-Road Package ($1,850), featuring a more rugged suspension, all-terrain tires, skid plates, hill descent control, and low-range gearing.

Chevrolet Suburban

Premier

Priced from $66,595, the Premier comes standard with the LT Luxury features, plus magnetic ride control, ventilated front seats, and 20-inch wheels. The Sun, Entertainment and Destinations Package remains optional at $2,535.

The RST Edition treatment is available on the Premiere for $2,630. To that, buyers can add the $2,820 RST Performance Edition, which includes the 6.2-liter V8, a 10-speed transmission, and a sport-tuned version of the magnetic ride control suspension.

For buyers who want it all, the Premiere Plus Edition ($11,700) carries all of the RST performance upgrades and the contents of the Sun, Entertainment and Destinations Package. Other additions include a head-up display, power assist steps, and perforated leather seats in mahogany. Adaptive cruise control is a standalone option ($895) on any Premier.

CarsDirect Tip

The 2019 Chevrolet Suburban LT provides an impressive load of equipment for the money, especially when equipped with the Luxury Package. Many buyers will appreciate the extra grunt of the 6.2-liter V8, but it's only available in pricey bundles that push the MSRP into unheard of territory for this model.

SUVs used to be the way to go when you needed to combine family, cargo, and trailer hauling into one rig, and the Chevrolet Suburban is the longest-running model in this segment. The 2019 Chevrolet Suburban continues its bulky ways with an extra touch of style and class inside and out. Despite the Suburban’s recent improvements, the modern-day crossover is burying its legacy with their improved fuel economy, capabilities, and passenger room. Is the 2019 Suburban a good fit for the average SUV shopper? Keep reading to find out.

Best Value

At first glance, the word “value” may not seem to belong next to the 2019 Chevrolet Suburban lineup due to its $51,895 starting price. But for that price, there's a lot of value baked into the base model. Moving up one trim to the Suburban LT pushes the price further north, but it also puts you in the lineup’s sweet spot.

The Suburban LT includes upscale features like leather seating, a nine-speaker Bose audio system, heated front seats with memory, a power liftgate, lane keeping assist, lane departure warning, low-speed automatic emergency braking, a safety alert seat, power-adjustable pedals, and more. The Suburban LT also has a ton of optional packages to dress things up.

  • Model: 2019 Chevrolet Suburban LT
  • Engine: 5.3-liter V8
  • Output: 355 hp / 383 lb-ft
  • Transmission: Six-speed automatic
  • Drivetrain: Rear-wheel drive
  • MPG: 15 City / 22 Hwy
  • Options: Luxury Package ($2,860, remote keyless entry with push-button start, heated second-row seats with power release, heated power-folding mirrors, power tilt-and-telescope steering wheel, power-folding third row, hands-free power liftgate, fog lights, front and rear park assist, rear cross-traffic alert, lane change alert, blind-spot monitoring, body-color trailer hitch cover, nine additional months of free SiriusXM radio)
  • Base Price: $56,895 (including a $1,295 destination fee)
  • Best Value Price: $59,755

Performance

Chevrolet Suburban

No matter which powertrain you choose, the base 5.3-liter V8 or the 6.2-liter V8, the 2019 Suburban has plenty of power to move its big body. These engines also play a key role in the Suburban’s monstrous 8,300-pound towing capacity, but its new optional 420-horsepower, 6.2-liter V8 is the king of the hill.

Though the Suburban is too big to be a true off-roader, the optional Z71 package makes it more confident off the beaten path with its upgraded wheels and rubber, hill-descent control, recovery hooks, upgraded suspension, and more.

The 2019 Suburban is large and in charge, and it drives like it. Its big body isn't well suited for cornering at any type of speed, and its boxy body doesn’t help matters in the fuel economy department.

Style

The latest take on the Suburban’s styling is an eye-grabbing one as it combines the classic boxy characteristics with uniquely shaped headlights and taillights. This combination of old and new keeps the interest of traditionalists and the younger crowd. Plus, there are tons of options to customize the Suburban’s looks, including the Midnight Package and RST Edition.

Moving inside, the Suburban abandons its classic looks for a more car-like format that helps it hold its own against the growing crossover market. Add to this stylish cabin the array of standard features and virtually limitless options, you have an interior built for just about anyone.

Though the big body may be a stretch for some people to drive, it houses a massive cabin that seats up to nine people in its three rows. Also, that third row doesn't require contortionist skills to squeeze into it as the second row slides up to give clear access to this rearmost row and its adult-friendly 34.5 inches of leg room.

When it comes time to haul, the Suburban is ready with its 39.3 cubic feet of cargo room with all three rows upright, 76.7 cubes with the third row folded, and 121.7 cubes with both rear rows folded.

The Best and Worst Things

The Suburban’s cabin is a standout in a near-extinct class. Chevy did a great job giving it a car-like look and feel to battle the popular crossover class while offering more third-row leg room and the cargo capacity of a Boeing 747.

But the Suburban is a wildebeest in a world built for cats. It takes up massive amounts of concrete in parking garages and backing it up may require a marshaller – orange batons and all.

Right For? Wrong For?

Chevrolet Suburban

The Suburban is perfect for a large family that also does its share of cargo and trailer hauling.

A large family that's only worried about seats for butts and enough room for groceries may prefer a smaller, easier-to-pilot crossover.

The Bottom Line

The 2019 Chevy Suburban is doing everything it can to keep the large SUV segment alive, and it's mostly successful. But with crossovers getting larger, more capable, and more fuel efficient, you may want to consider one before going with this hefty rig.
