2025 Chevy Tahoe

For 2025 Chevy gave the Tahoe a new nose and tail, a revised dash design and new features. The exterior tweaks are minor enough that you'll have to be a Tahoe enthusiast (do those exist?) to notice them. But the updated dashboard is apparent and gives the cabin a techy vibe. Chevy moved the previously dash-mounted push-button shifter to the column where it belongs. In doing so it freed up space for a huge 17.7-inch touchscreen that's standard on every trim. The system is Google Android-based, and unlike its application in Chevy's electric vehicles, it features wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity. The optional turbodiesel 3.0-liter inline six now makes 305 horsepower and 495 lb-ft of torque, up from 277 horsepower and 460 lb-ft, respectively. And it's now offered in the Z71 trim starting in early 2025. A 360-degree camera and adaptive cruise are now standard on every Tahoe.

The Tahoe's primary competition is the similarly massive Ford Expedition, which is offered with a turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 in standard and high-output versions. However, there's a distinct lack of hybrid or diesel power in the Expedition's lineup. Other considerations include the also-revised-for-2025 GMC Yukon — the Tahoe's mechanical twin — the Nissan Armada, and the hybrid-only Toyota Sequoia. And if you've got a bigger budget, there's the Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class, with pricing that starts in the Tahoe's upper reaches.

We lived with a 2022 Tahoe for 42,000 miles, relishing its space and being stunned by its less-than-hoped-for fuel economy. That's the same generation as this Tahoe, just without the updates for 2025, so most of our observations still apply. Read all about our time with the Tahoe here.
