The 2021 Chevrolet Suburban has been
priced from US$ 52,995 in the United States – a US$ 2,700 premium over the slightly
smaller Chevrolet Tahoe.
That price is for the two-wheel-drive base
model Suburban, with four-wheel-drive adding US$ 3,000 to the price of the SUV.
The next best-equipped trim level, the LT, starts at US$ 57,795, while the RST and
Z71 models have been priced from US$ 61,095 and US$ 63,195, respectively.
Moving into the upper echelon of the
range, the Chevrolet Suburban Premier will be priced from US$ 66,595, while the
range-topping, cream of the crop High Country will bump the price to US$ 73,595.
That means a four-wheel-drive Suburban High Country would start at a rather
significant US$ 76,595. That said, the Suburban remains great value for 2021, with
the base model not costing a penny more than the outgoing model.
The 2021 Chevrolet Suburban
rides on the new GM T1 vehicle platform which features independent multilink
rear suspension for superior comfort and handling. Every Suburban except for
the High Country will come standard with Chevy’s naturally aspirated 5.3L L84
V8 engine, which is good for 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. The
High Country, meanwhile, comes standard with the more robust naturally aspirated
6.2L L87 V8 engine, offering up 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque.
GM is also offering its turbodiesel 3.0L
LM2 inline six-cylinder Duramax engine in the 2021 Suburban, which produces 277
horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. The engine will not be available until
this fall, however, so pricing is not yet available for diesel models. The oil
burner will be offered on all Suburban trim levels with the exception of the
Z71. All three available engines are paired with the GM 10-speed automatic
transmission in the Suburban.
The 2021 Chevrolet Suburban will arrive at
dealers later this year. The SUV will be built alongside GM’s other T1 based
full-size SUVs at its Arlington Assembly plant in Texas.
