2022 Chevrolet Suburban Review, Features, Trims, Specs And Pics

July 31, 2022

The 2022 Chevrolet Suburban makes me want a bigger garage.


Because it’s a bigger than full-size SUV.  Great for large families and one of the largest non-commercial vehicles on the road.


it’s huge inside, versatile, and available with almost every conceivable option.  Either from the factory or aftermarket.


For example, it’s hard to imagine a motorcade that doesn’t include at least one Suburban.


And Chevy Suburban is the original sport utility vehicle.  With the first one rolling out of the factory in 1935.

2022 Chevy Suburban Transmissions

The same 10-speed automatic transmission comes with the 2022 Suburban.  Regardless of engine you run.


And that trans is both smooth shifting and efficient.  Of course, you do have the decision of two-wheel or four-wheel drive.


But considering the four-wheel drive option seems the way to go.  Because there’s not much difference in fuel economy.


Fuel Economy

The EPA estimates for Suburban’s fuel economy vary.  Because it depends on engine and transmission combination.

Inside the 2022 Chevy Suburban is huge.


Because Suburban delivers up to 144.7 cubic feet of cargo space.  That’s with both back rows of seats folded down


Plus there’s 93.8 cu-ft behind the second row and 41.5 cu-ft behind the third row.


Yet Chevy’s Suburban is comfortable for passengers too.  And that’s not only once seated but also while getting in and out of the SUV.


Furthermore, all that space for both people and stuff is well laid out and functional.  Because folding some or all the seats down is simple.  Likewise setting all the seats back up is easy.

Leading the new technology for Suburban is the in-dash digital instrument cluster.


It’s a 12.3-inch-diagonal screen.  And it now comes standard on LT trim configurations and above.


Plus the number of available camera views jumps up to 13.  And these make parting the big Suburban a breeze.


Additionally, Suburban offers a wide range of safety and driver assist features.  Including front and rear park assist which is now standard.


Also standard now is lane keep assist with lane departure warning.  Plus top trims get reverse automatic braking.


Finally, the Suburban’s layout makes it easy for drivers to manage all those features.
