2025 Chevy Tahoe Z71: It's Almost Perfect But Missing Just One Thing...

[@stokes8851]

If u want ventilated seats GM wants u to go upscale and get the GMC Yukon At4 if u want the off-road version! I do agree that Chevy should at least offer that as an option and should be included in the comfort package! Although it should be standard equipment for the price people are paying for it!

Still blows me away that dealerships that take the time to record a video in hopes of selling more, they can't take the time to make the wheels look amazing, like add some shine and clean the rims? Wild

wish it had a solid rear axle ...this is more of a 3 row luxury family school bus , most of the opts don't really help me off road ,why do I need a power slide center console , panaramic sun roof ,do like the 6.2 and the diesel option my fav is 13:03 all trucks need this page great when towing , hot desert driving

Nice overview of a nice looking SUV. I like all changes (especially the 3.0L) though the out going model also looked sharp. I agree with you that at this price point not having ventilated seats is nuts - everyone else is now offering it as standard in these mid to higher end trims/price ranges. It’s a shame that the technology package will not be available on the diesel Z71. Personally I think the LED animation is ultra cheesy and I just can’t understand why people get so excited about LED light animation on start up as a highlight of the re-design as compared to other changes like better steering feel or suspension, bike warning sensors, standard auto parking etc I guess thats why people get excited about the red recovery hooks vs. concealed color matched hooks….. just saying! And I prefaced by saying “Personally” 😂

You do great and very thorough reviews. Two questions: Does the third row fold down? If so, when folded forward to the extent possible, is the rear floor then flat?

[@blueracer66]

I'm conflicted between the Tahoe and the Suburban. Decisions, decisions.

I think the fuel tank is the same as the 1/2 ton….24G. I really dislike no air suspension with the 3 liter or heads up display. Still worth it but sucks. Planning on ordering Z71 Tahoe Cypress Gray 3 liter w/gideon interior eventually.

[@brucevivra]

It has good options but I don't think it is full options, some other options like the tow package, luxury package, Brembo brakes, dual cat performance exhaust, block heater for cold weather, roof rack, upgraded floor mattress, rear screens with HDMi, wheel lockers, illuminated bowtie, etc...

Call me bougie, but the no ventilated seats is why we’re leaving our 21 z71 for a premier instead of another z71. We love the z71 look but ventilated seats in summer, where I’m at, are amazing. For the price, it’s Kind of a ball drop IMO. My 16 LML z71 had vented seats. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Here I thought the “one thing” was affordability 😩

[@DnD_Robb404]

7:20 I don’t like that steering wheel. It’s almost as if they’re making this less truck-like

[@Thelilantjr]

What's more comfortable on a paved but jacked up road with potholes and all kind of mess? Z71 or the standard LT?

[@SMiller5488]

Same suspension no ride would be the same

[@darrelldoty7757]

Yep. No ventilated seats for 81k! Big deal here in Texas. These are overpriced by about 20% in my opinion. You can get. 2024 here for about 10k off. When they decide to get it down another 10k then we will buy one. Otherwise we will just keep waiting. Ford and Jeep both have 2024s up to a 15k discount. Good things come to those who wait. GMC Yukon Elevation has cooled seats.

[@NHRA_JEEP]

Nice ride. Not $81k nice.

[@williamkurrus]

It's missing a locking diff. It's the " off road " package with no locking diff?

[@SMiller5488]

Limited slip is as tight as a locking diff in these, not so sure they are not actually locking rear diff as it locks tight and leaves great burn outs

[@Lonestar101]

I'm not a fan of the jet black carpets. They show every spec of dirt. Unfortunately, it's the only color option.

[@vonboldler5219]

So what is it missing? I drink.

Ventilated seats
