5 reasons to buy the 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe

1. Spacious interior

The 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe has a roomy and comfortable interior, with seating for seven or eight passengers depending on seat configuration. This makes it a good choice for large families, transporting work crews, or carpooling with colleagues. Behind the third-row seating is 15.3 cu-ft for everyone's gear. Drop those passenger seats for a huge 94.7 cu-ft of cargo space, enough to move a friend in just one day.

2. Big-time towing

If you've got big hauling needs, the Tahoe has you covered. The 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe has a strong towing capacity thanks to its 5.3L V8, and models 2WD are able to tow an estimated maximum of 8,600 pounds when properly equipped.

The Tahoe is a solid choice for weekends hauling boats, horse trailers, or ATVs. Alternatively, use a Tahoe for business and haul your lawn mowing equipment or mobile detail trailer.

3. Loaded with technology

You can entertain the kids (and yourself) on every drive with the Tahoe's tech. The 2015 Tahoe offers a range of available technology features, including remote start, an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, Bluetooth® connectivity, and a rear-seat entertainment system.

Driver-assist tech includes a standard rearview camera as well as available rear parking sensors, forward collision warning, and lane departure warning. The Tahoe's available features give you peace of mind as you head out on the highway or tackle an urban parking lot.

4. Quiet and comfortable ride

The Tahoe has a smooth and comfortable ride, thanks to its fully boxed frame, well-tuned suspension, and quiet cabin. This model year adds extra sound-dampening material under the carpet and in the doors to help reduce outside noise in all trims, but for the best Tahoe driving experience, get the optional magnetic ride control suspension on LTZ trim. It continuously adapts to changing road conditions, ensuring you and your passengers are always riding in comfort.

5. Off-road like a truck

The Tahoe has excellent off-road capabilities thanks to its available four-wheel-drive system and high 7.9-inch ground clearance. This can make it a good choice if you live down unpaved roads or enjoy adventure hobbies such as kayaking and rock climbing. The available Z71 trim ups the off-road capability with a protective skidplate, unique 18-inch wheels, and front tow hooks. It looks great too, with an exclusive grille, fog lamps, running boards, and bold badging.
