The Chevrolet Suburban, which has been offered continuously since 1935, is one of General Motors’ longest-running nameplates. While the 2021 Chevy Suburban carries on the line’s rich legacy, there is nothing dated about it. The 2021 model introduces the 12th generation of the Chevy Suburban with remarkable updates. This 3-row SUV comes with an incredibly spacious, modern interior.
The expansive cargo area in the rear can easily be extended when needed by folding the second and third rows down. In front of the cabin, the dashboard features a layered appearance with two color tones and aluminum accents. And the color display screen for infotainment system equipment pops up for easy viewing. The exterior design is modernized, but it retains its signature look. The sides and hood are shaped for character. The 3-piece LED headlights sit over inverted-C LED light ribbons, and these lighting units highlight the prominence of the grille.
