Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Plenty of space throughout the three rows of seats,
several good engine choices,
comfortable ride.

Cons
More expensive than Chevrolet analogue,
most models guzzle gas,
might not fit in your garage.

By:

Pros
Comfortable ride and quiet interior
Climate control system is impressive
Optional 6.2-liter V8 makes robust power
Generous cargo capacity

Cons
Hard to maneuver in parking lots and city streets
Driver's seat lacks adjustability
Ponderous handling
Not much different than the less expensive Chevrolet Tahoe

The 2021 Suburban introduces an all-new generation that features significant improvements. The most notable update is the SUV's first-ever independent rear suspension. This allows much better interior packaging that frees up room in the cargo area and third row. The Suburban is also longer than before and outfitted with more technology than ever. This includes first-time equipment such as an air suspension and a downsized Duramax diesel engine.
