Mark Allen Chevrolet - How the 2026 Chevrolet Suburban Simplifies Family Road Trips around Owasso, OK

Planning a family road trip around Owasso, OK starts with choosing a vehicle that makes every mile easier. The 2026 Chevrolet Suburban brings the right blend of space, organization, and technology, turning long days into calm, well-orchestrated journeys. With three adult-friendly rows, a low, flat load floor, and generous cargo capacity even with the third row in use, packing is more efficient and access is simpler. The sliding second row helps passengers tailor legroom, while available second-row captain’s chairs keep the cabin feeling open. Up front, the driver’s view includes an 11.0-inch digital cluster and a 17.7-inch center display angled toward the driver for intuitive reach. Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and an available wireless charging pad prevent cable clutter, while the available Bose premium audio and optional rear-seat entertainment keep everyone relaxed.

The Suburban’s on-road calm is anchored by an independent rear suspension and can be elevated further with available Magnetic Ride Control and an available Air Ride Adaptive Suspension. Lower the ride height for easier loading or raise it for extra clearance on gravel roads; the system can even adjust automatically for comfort and stability. When you choose the available 3.0L turbo-diesel inline-six, torque arrives smoothly for confident passing and quiet cruising, while the available 6.2L V-8 provides brisk acceleration for mountain grades and busy interchanges. Towing a pop-up or small boat? The available Max Trailering Package brings an integrated trailer brake controller, enhanced cooling, and camera-based tools—Hitch Guidance with Hitch View—that take the guesswork out of lining up and setting off. Add in HD Surround Vision and Trailer Sway Control, and the Suburban supports safer trailering from driveway to campground.

• Cargo made easy: Low, flat load floor and power-folding seats unlock van-like space without giving up SUV confidence.
• Tech that reduces stress: 11.0-inch driver display, 17.7-inch infotainment, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Wi-Fi hotspot, and available wireless charging keep everyone connected.
• Ride comfort that lasts: Available Magnetic Ride Control and Air Ride Adaptive Suspension smooth highways and rough roads alike.
• Towing confidence: Available Max Trailering Package, Hitch Guidance with Hitch View, and Trailer Sway Control simplify setup and enhance stability.
• Hands-free help: Available Super Cruise® supports hands-free driving on compatible roads, ideal for long stretches.

Families often ask whether the Suburban’s third row truly works for adults on long trips. Thanks to the sliding second row and the independent rear suspension, the answer is yes—legroom and ride quality hold up even for grown-ups. Another frequent concern is whether the technology is too complex. Chevrolet’s interface is intentionally straightforward, with core functions just a tap away and quick on-screen prompts that make setup fast. Available rear-seat entertainment keeps kids engaged, while the front cabin layout ensures the driver can manage the essentials without distraction.
