Key Features of the 2026 Chevrolet Suburban

3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel Inline-Six

The available 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel inline-six delivers a smart combination of torque-rich performance and smooth, refined operation. Rated at 305 horsepower, it excels in real-world pulling thanks to its broad torque curve and relaxed demeanor at highway speed. Paired with the responsive 10-speed automatic, the diesel powertrain helps the Suburban feel composed with a full cabin or a trailer in tow. For families that road-trip often or owners who regularly haul boats and campers, the Duramax shines by minimizing downshifts on grades and reducing driver effort during long stints behind the wheel. It’s performance you can feel in everyday acceleration, merging, and steady-state cruising.

6.2L V-8 Performance Option

For drivers who want maximum gas-powered muscle, the available 6.2L V-8 steps up with 420 horsepower and confident passing power. Mated to the same 10-speed automatic, the 6.2L is responsive from low rpm and eager across the rev range, making highway merges and on-ramps genuinely effortless. It is an ideal match for those who prioritize brisk acceleration and confident, high-load towing on hot days. The drivetrain’s smoothness and refinement stand out as well—quick, neatly executed shifts keep the engine in its sweet spot, while the robust cooling and proven architecture deliver confidence during summer towing around the lakes near Tulsa, OK.

Air Ride Adaptive Suspension and Adaptive Dampers

Ride quality is a standout in the Suburban, and the hardware makes the difference. Available adaptive dampers continuously respond to the road, helping reduce body motion without compromising comfort. The available Air Ride Adaptive Suspension takes it further—automatically or manually raising and lowering ride height to improve aerodynamics, facilitate easier loading, and increase ground clearance on rougher routes. Around town, that means curb-friendly confidence and comfortable ingress/egress for the family; on the highway, a planted, stable feel; and on the trail, the extra clearance you want for ruts and uneven terrain.

17.7-Inch Infotainment Display with 11.0-Inch Digital Cluster

Tech-lovers get a cockpit that feels modern and intuitive. Every Suburban includes an 11.0-inch digital instrument cluster and a large 17.7-inch infotainment display angled slightly toward the driver for easier reach and visibility. Standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integrate your smartphone seamlessly, while an onboard Wi-Fi hotspot keeps passengers connected for work or streaming. A wireless charging pad helps declutter the console, and an available Bose audio system elevates sound quality for music, podcasts, and navigation prompts. The interface is simple to learn and quick to respond, making daily use stress-free.

Super Cruise Hands-Free Driver Assistance

Available on LT, RST, Premier, and High Country models, Super Cruise brings hands-free driving capability to compatible roads, adding a remarkable layer of convenience for long trips. Combined with standard active safety features—such as automated emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection plus lane-departure warning with lane-keeping assist—the Suburban surrounds you with technology that supports attentive driving. It is an ideal pairing with the Suburban’s confident chassis tuning, turning cross-state journeys into calm, predictable drives while adding a modern, high-end touch you will appreciate daily.
