2017 Chevrolet Tahoe LT

The 2017 Chevrolet Tahoe LT pairs full-size SUV capability with a range of factory-equipped comfort, convenience and safety features. Powered by the EcoTec3 5.3L FlexFuel V8 rated at 355 hp and 383 lb-ft of torque, the Tahoe LT uses General Motors’ EcoTec3 technologies—direct injection, variable valve timing and cylinder deactivation—to balance strong performance with improved fuel efficiency. The engine is mated to an automatic transmission with driver-oriented shift modes and includes a tow-focused calibration for hauling or trailer use. Rear-wheel drive is standard; four-wheel drive is available from the factory for enhanced traction and off-road confidence.
