After a thorough overhaul last year, the 2008 Chevrolet Tahoe soldiers on with a variety of drivetrains, seating configurations, and a brand-new hybrid model. It offers rugged styling, excellent towing capacity, and a choice between two-wheel drive and more capable four-wheel drive models.

The Tahoe comes in four trim levels – LS, LT, LTZ, and Hybrid models. 2WD models feature a 4.8 liter V8 or a 5.3 liter V8 with Active Fuel Management™, deactivating engine cylinders to improve fuel economy while cruising. Optional on all trim levels (except Hybrid) is a 5.3 liter engine featuring E85 FlexFuel capability, allowing the engine to run on a gasoline/ethanol blend. The Tahoe Hybrid features a powerful Vortec 6.0 liter V8 mated to two-mode electric motor that utilizes regenerative braking technology to capture power during stops to charge the battery pack.This system offers a 40% increase in estimated fuel efficiency for city driving.

Cargo room is very generous, with a maximum of 108.9 cubic feet with the optional third-row seat removed and second row seat folded. Towing capacity is extremely competitive, with a maximum of 8,200 lbs. on V8-equipped 4WD models.

Dual front airbags and head-curtain side airbags for all rows are standard, with a rollover sensor for added protection. Also standard is the StabiliTrak electronic stability control system, improving vehicle stability during emergency maneuvers. The standard anti-lock braking system helps to maintain control by reducing wheel lockup during hard braking.

Amenities are plentiful, inside and out. An array of 18” and 20” aluminum wheels announce you’ve arrived in style. Ultrasonic rear park assist provides an audible beep to indicate your distance from objects when backing up. The Z71 Off-Road Package includes an off-road suspension, automatic locking rear differential and a skid plate package for more serious off-road duties. An optional Bose® nine-speaker audio system with dual-play CD/MP3/DVD player provides excellent acoustic clarity. The optional navigation radio includes voice recognition and a touch-screen navigation screen for ease of use.

Both large families and image-conscious urban professionals will appreciate the 2008 Chevrolet Tahoe for its superb blend of cargo room, towing power, and luxury amenities.
