2016 Chevrolet Tahoe LTZ - Redline: Review

[@MCahli87]

My husband and I take the kids to Disneyland yearly and we happen to rent this exact same model and color. Oh boy! Let me tell you, we immediately fell in love! We are actually on a hunt for a Full Size SUV and this suv is on our list!

[@thecoolguy775]

MP get something more luxurious like a Yukon Denali or an Escalade. I own the Yukon Denali and I was gonna get the Escalade but I liked the Denali more because of the exterior. Anyway, just check out the Escalade or the Yukon Denali!

[@wokegod007]

MP get a lambo, you'll get there quicker.

[@mrnoname7370]

First Last ummm no you have to follow the speed limit

[@thecoolguy775]

Darth Bane can’t take the whole family

[@godshelter211]

Get a Durango. You will not regret it, I promise you.

[@TahoeKing]

Why this guy keeps comparing Denali options with Tahoe? Denali is a different pricing level... Yukon and Tahoe have exactly the same options... Again Denali is a different story with more options, better engine and gearbox

[@marrbaby1]

Because he favors the Yukon over the Tahoe and Escalade although he wouldn't drive either one of them

[@coureurdebois]

they really stepped up the interior... Lincoln / Buick (opel) level of interior quality. crazy. though im not a fan of the styling.

[@bokkey45]

+justin bouche Buick/Opel is part of the GM division

[@coureurdebois]

bokkey45 yes, i was naming brands, not whole comapines, i dont judge a whole company when i judge a car, i judge that car and brand. like cadillac, buick, GMC, all different brands, same company. :)

[@Torch315]

First off, I appreciate all the information and the comparisons in the review. It's good to know what higher priced models bring to the table. One small thing about the review, what is the deal with that rattle? I just bought a Tahoe two days ago and I think the rattle in the review makes the car sound bad. The Tahoe is a very impressive vehicle. I bought it for the look and options, especially the Magnetic Control Suspension, which is standard on the highest LTZ models. Huge difference between the sway on my previous vehicle, a Suburban. Also, I can definitely feel the difference in pickup. That should be obvious because the Suburban is a bigger vehicle. Just the same, you never know until you drive one so I was pleased that pickup was significantly better. I am a gadget guy so all the options are cool, plus, I've got bumper-to-bumper warranty coverage for five years. The Heads Up Display (HUD) shows the dashboard on the windshield. Fantastic! The seats are cooled, another great option, especially for steamy summers in Wisconsin. The safety features are a bit mind boggling for someone who hasn't experienced them before. For instance, the steering wheel actually turns the vehicle back into the lane when the vehicle strays. That's awesome, if a little scary. I'll get used to it. And, the vehicle automatically brakes if there's an approaching obstacle and you aren't paying attention. Again, a little freaky, but I'll get used to it. Also, in both cases, the seat pulses, or vibrates, to snap you out of a stupor. Sound system is great. My android phone adapts to the system with ease. Seats, very comfortable. Extra: There's a hidden storage compartment in the dashboard that opens up with a push of the button! In summary, I like the look inside and out, very comfortable ride, and because the vehicle is one-sixth shorter than my Suburban, it's maneuverability and parking are greatly enhanced. I haven't read a bad thing from Tahoe owners and I can see why.

[@elcanbu5610]

I wonder the same thing about the camera rattle… magnetic suspension must be very stable and cloud like maneuverability-riding I suppose. It’s my dream car. There’s a 2016 used one at $28,995 94k miles… is it a good deal? (Puerto Rico)

[@danteljackson]

i dont like how he keeps down talking the tahoe and praising the yukon and escalade. the review was suppose to be about what u get from a tahoe ltz, not what it doesnt have and how much better the other trucks are. only real chevy fans will understand how great this tahoe really is.

[@thatvacuumgeek]

That, and real Chevy fans like old Chevys to.

[@1Steson]

Agree 100%. I like the Chevy styling better than the GMC or Escalade, I think both are in your face a little more than necessary with the odd looking GMC headlights ruining an otherwise nice looking vehicle. Totally disagree that the 5.3 is lacking in power, I have two of the 5.3's (Silverado and Suburban) and am kind of a gear head (don't like sluggish vehicles), I think the 5.3 has more than enough power, even when towing a loaded (large) trailer. Apple this, Carplay that... in these reviews it's important to give equal time to android auto, or if you're not capable of that, don't do reviews. And the comparason with the much more expensive and smaller Mercedes, don't even go there. Flooring it after every stop... really? Throttle response of GM vehicles is a little lazy to help people like this drive responsibly & help save them from themselves in the MPG category, no wonder he gets 14 MPG. You put a couple hundred thousand miles on these GMs with the 5.3 and you learn how to modulate the throttle & that throttle lag, which is obvious at first, goes away & you don't notice it. Anyway, some good points here but overall > fail. Will avoid redline reviews going forward.

[@paddyj7690]

10:17 I actually find it easy to make a u-turn with the Tahoe. My Audi A4 is much smaller but the turning radius is quite big compared to the much bigger and bulkier Tahoe.

[@Conconboss]

PJ Beatty thats because the audi is front one wheel drive.

[@robdieseldiesel8960]

I have the exact same truck got it used 40000 miles $40k so I'm loving it!!

[@coolguy4030]

Thinking about getting one the 1st if the year. Need credit score to go up 15 more points then to the dealership I go

[@edgurrr]

an updated steering wheel can go a long way to make the interior look more premium..

[@alexm9370]

LuBano premium is such a strong word

[@darnisha612]

I agree, it's a little dated.

[@Thewholebeing23]

The side mirror blinkers could have been added to the side and the steering wheel updated. Plus the new shifter front the Silverado

[@trewright1482]

Nothing wrong with the Steering wheel look IMO. It comes with a Heated Wheel Option and Leather wrapped.

this is the best review of the tahoe on KZbin. Definitely one of the best SUVs out there.

[@garfylunds7301]

Thanks for the review... the gas pedal is a bit soft... if you will...as you have to push through it kind of to get the acceleration you are looking for. A smooth push on the pedal works well.

[@jeepdan7776]

Proud owner of a 2015 Tahoe LTZ in white Diamond, wouldn’t trade it for the Cadi or Yukon

[@intervention142tgr8]

Great review as always Sofyan! You never disappoint. All you need to do is show us the new GMC Sierra and then you will have reviewed all of GM's new trucks and truck based SUV's

[@form109]

The drop in RPM'S Going from 1st to 2nd nearly remind me of a 4 speed auto. Was steeper than I expected. Nice truck though. I'm a bigger fan of the previous gen styling wise. But it's undeniable that GM improves these trucks every new generation!

[@mexicosistemas]

it looks incredible, but the trunk it's ridiculously small for such a big SUV, it's for 7 passengers but without luggage.

[@marc1093280]

The 6.2L V8 should be an option in LTZ trim.

[@MrTblackmon]

GM want the 6.2L buyers for GMC and undoubtedly Cadillac Escalade fans.

[@PaulsPlace]

+marc1093280 5.3L has plenty of power. Have one myself.

[@MrTblackmon]

WRB Not to me. The 2015 GMC Yukon SLT was powerful when in second gear but not in first. It was sluggish but quiet especially when loaded down.

[@PaulsPlace]

What rear axle ratio was it?

[@MrTblackmon]

It was a standard ratio while our friend who has a 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe LT with matching ratios said the same.

[@bestbryanusa]

it would be great if u had a camera inside aiming the road maybe elbow rest position or a bit higher it gives the impression to the viewers like if they were actually inside the vehicle( while driving) thanks nice videos good job!

[@johnholmes2522]

Robert Drayton Turn your head and use your eyes and mirrors, gomer.

[@Ndasuunye]

hmm, but is this vehicle's maintenance cost cheaper than the escalade? Because I hear Cadillac's maintenance cost is ridiculously high

[@ivemer9541]

+Ndasuunye obviously ..dude this is the lower tier luxury compared to the upper tier "Yukon Denali & the highest tier "Escalade Platinum" Even the Suburban is the same as the tahoe Chevys are cheap regardless of the model u buy

[@Ndasuunye]

***** fuck it then. I'll just stick with ford. Probably get a Ford Expedition.

[@weewilly2007]

First we had to deal with smarmy shop assistant types, whenever we had the gaul to step into whatever fancy shop they were working at, now they come straight into out living rooms to show us how unworthy we are. Service with a smile indeed.

[@aeelayyan]

What do you recommend for an SUV but a bit smaller? We want something middle of the road but something after reviewing you feel is a really good one. Ford explorer? Mazda cx9? Or something else? Thanks in advance.

[@richiemorgan9459]

Great review.. but enough about how it’s different from a GMC and a Cadi.. just talk about what we get with an LTZ Tahoe

[@ldodom]

The Chevy iteration is the best selling model of the three is the best seller because Chevrolet trucks are traditionally the longest lasting most dependable truck sold. I've owned all three plus an H2 Hummer and the Chevy has by far the lowest long term cost of ownership coupled with bulletproof dependability.

[@pythagoreantheorem5301]

They're best selling because they're cheap.

[@TheKec789]

Ummm, one of the Tahoe's on the showroom floor of a nearby Chevy dealership is stickered at 74k. You call that cheap?

[@ldodom]

+Kevin Couch Thank you, Kevin. I started to respond with the same information but figured why bother.

[@pythagoreantheorem5301]

Yeah, of course you would list the price of the most expensive Tahoe, totally ignoring that its base price is less than 48,000. Out of the Tahoe, Yukon, and Escalade, what do you think is less? Use common sense.

[@TheKec789]

+Linsey Redd Less doesn't necessarily equate to cheap and is this not a review of an LTZ? I've also never seen a base price Tahoe on our lot.

[@ivanlowjones]

Very impressive SUV. It's actually my favorite trim level of the GM big triplet SUV's. I'm still not a fan of the column shifter. Perhaps a rotary shifter or push button system would be a better option.

[@alexanderdonlon428]

Please do a review on the 2015/2016 Ford Expedition (EL) You did talk about it a few times in this review. All of the other large family SUV's have been done but this one.

[@ethanmoore3774]

+Redline Reviews will you guys do a review of the 2015 Ford Expedition, EL or non-EL model?

[@trewright1482]

Bought a 2019 Tahoe Premier and it is identical to this 2016 LTZ. They changed the trim name to Premier in 2017. Our neighbors have a 2019 Denali and other than the bigger 6.2 engine their is no discernible difference in the interiors. Personally I like the more sport style of the Tahoe.

[@brianinbox]

Do you experience any buffetting/vibration issue with theTahoe? There are so many forums and medias out there reporting these issues and GM has not yet been able to come up with a fix. The problem is widespread to 2015/2016 Yukon, Tahoe and its trucks.

[@brandonjames6533]

[@quanronghu4900]

+Moaiz Shahzad why does it matter? that's an awful logic. go through his channel and tell me he only review new cars

[@drinkingthatkool-aid3193]

It doesn't matter. I know he's reviewed older cars before but that was like 2 years ago. Ever since, it's basically been new cars. It's not awful logic...I'm just stating what's been going on.

[@theredline]

+Nathan Nan Hi Nathan, The S2000 is certainly on my list to film, finding a good condition one is not easy. I typically don't like to film used cars that are heavily modified. I prefer it to be as close to stock as possible. I know lately I've been filming new cars, but used cars are still on my radar, I'm just selective on which ones I'd like to feature on the channel. I take all your request seriously though, just be patient while I track down the good used cars :) -Sofyan

[@drinkingthatkool-aid3193]

+Nathan Nan I'm not saying he should t review an S2000. Just proposing that maybe he hasn't because it's not readily available and he hasn't been uploading older cars recently. Don't know why you're getting defensive and I have no interest in attention. I wasn't attacking you or Honda/Acura. Just stating my thoughts but then I forgot this was KZbin where opinions don't matter.

[@ElMatador613]

You should do a 2015 Lincoln Navigator, review. I'm curious to see how it stands against its competitors.

[@tylerrose8832]

What did you expect the Tahoe to start out at logger $38,000. $470000 is like 40k less then the Escalade

[@barbiewhippin22]

can't wait until apple car play is standard cross all cars! eventually it will be

[@MrTblackmon]

I hope you will visit a Ford and Lincoln showroom to review a Lincoln Navigator Reserve.

[@CrimsonHawk09]

If you really need more than the 5.3 don't get a gmc or an escalade. Get a truck that was meant to haul and tow. If you want to go fast then do performance upgrades rather than listen to his review. Honestly I dont understand the need to have a 6.2l SUV. Most people will never utilize that power and just have a gas hungry grocery getter. Get a truck with the engine you want and stfu.

[@peacequiet4883]

CrimsonHawk09 Exactly. Not to mention the fact that the 6.2 liters engine requires 91 octane. As they used to say at Rolls Royce, "the power is adequate".

[@biodot88]

The 5.3 is a great engine. I've never needed more. Want yes - need no.

[@jameswilliams-fn9qk]

Nice mall crawler but if I wanted a real SUV to tow my boat or take my family on vacation I'd get an Expedition or a Navigator. They are a much better value too. None of this fancy lane keep stuff and carplay is all that great when u try it out and a hotspot you can get at best buy for 50 bucks and fits in your pocket. Now if they had adaptive cruise that would actually slow you down to a complete stop like in the new lincoln continental, THAT would be useful. Imagine how much less fatigue in stop and go not having to brake. 90% of this other electronic nannies is pretty useless.

[@DJR5280]

I thought this truck had real wood and aluminum for interior trim pieces

[@AggiePhil]

Do you HAVE to use Carplay when you connect the phone via USB or can you exit it and still do things such as sending text messages while driving (yes, I realize this can be unsafe)?

[@thecoolguy775]

You have to use USB

[@chih6654]

If I just want a mid-level, is GMC Yukon XL SLE better, or Chevy Suburban LT?

[@LeatherandLuxuryCarsd]

+Chi H Yukon and mid level GMC is SLT

[@chih6654]

Well I should say a Yukon XL SLE or a Suburban LT, cuz even with the base SLE is pretty well equipped

[@LeatherandLuxuryCarsd]

Chi H I'd go SLT the SLE's are lacking some good features also most don't have a front center console and I think that ruins the look of the interior. But I think their all nice trucks just stay away from the Ford twins they give you a turbo 6 that's less powerful and get's the same EPA as an ESV Escalade I kid you not.

[@idiotrun1997]

The Tahoe, Yukon and Escalade are essentially the same vehicle right?

[@LeatherandLuxuryCarsd]

+BenderIsGreat Not even close

[@YouTubeuser-yp8qk]

Well, they're under the GM divisions and I believe they use the Yukon and Tahoe use the Silverado's chasis not sure about the Cadillac though. So yeah you can say they're pretty alike. Asthetics is where they differ.

[@drinkingthatkool-aid3193]

Tahoe and Yukon are the same I believe. The Escalade is a luxury SUV, hence it costs like $90k and the Tahoe and Yukon are basic entry-level SUV's.

[@LeatherandLuxuryCarsd]

Moaiz Shahzad Yukon is only similar until you get to Denali then it's a different truck it keeps that rugged look while adding Luxury the Escalade is a Bentley with a truck body looks amazing and has awesome features.

I would pick the General Motors lineup of full-size SUV's over the 4Runner because the 4Runner is old-school, and it doesn't offer that much features. Compared to the GM, the GM is more modern, offers more features for the money, and it's not as outdated compared to the Toyota. So I would go for General Motors.

The Tahoe does not compete with the 4Runner. The 4Runner is a mid-sized body on frame SUV, while the Tahoe is a full-size body on frame SUV.
