The Chevrolet Suburban combines full-size SUV sales data with unusually broad measurements of power, cargo, towing and technology. The figures below separate U.S. deliveries, 2025 model-year specifications, manufacturer estimates and the defined population in a 2025 NHTSA recall.
Key Chevrolet Suburban Statistics
The most quotable figures span sales, ownership entry points, mechanical output, utility and documented recall exposure:

U.S. Chevrolet Suburban Sales Scale and Trends
GM’s reported U.S. delivery figures show the Suburban’s annual scale and a different pattern in the final quarter. These are U.S. reported deliveries, not global registrations, retail-only sales or installed ownership.
| Period | Chevrolet Suburban deliveries | Geography | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Q4 2022 | 16,045 | United States | GM U.S. Deliveries for Quarter 4 2023 |
| Q4 2023 | 10,144 | United States | GM U.S. Deliveries for Quarter 4 2023 |
| January–December 2022 | 50,951 | United States | GM U.S. Deliveries for Quarter 4 2023 |
| January–December 2023 | 52,820 | United States | GM U.S. Deliveries for Quarter 4 2023 |
For brand and company context, Chevrolet delivered 1,716,280 vehicles in the United States during 2023, while GM reported 2,594,698 total U.S. vehicle deliveries. Both figures are broader than Suburban demand and should not be read as Suburban market share.
Chevrolet said Tahoe and Suburban had led their full-size SUV segment together for more than 45 years in a 2025 model launch announcement published November 29, 2023 and updated in August 2024. That is a manufacturer characterization; the underlying segment series was not supplied.
Chevrolet Suburban Trims and Pricing Data
The 2025 U.S. lineup had six trims, giving the model a defined range of entry and premium configurations. The 2023 specification sheet also listed six trims, so the count is consistent across those two model years.
| Model year | Trim count | Listed trims | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 6 | LS, LT, RST, Z71, Premier, High Country | 2023 Chevrolet Suburban |
| 2025 | 6 | LS, LT, RST, Z71, Premier, High Country | Meet the new 2025 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban |
Chevrolet’s 2025 pricing page listed a $62,000 starting MSRP for the LS and an $81,700 starting MSRP for the High Country. It also displayed a $91,260 as-shown price for one 2025 Suburban configuration.
These are advertised U.S. prices rather than universal transaction prices. Taxes, destination charges and options may differ, and the as-shown figure is configuration-specific.
The 2023 sheet listed 4WD as available and standard on Z71. It also listed up to 13 available camera views with the Advanced Trailering System; that is an available-feature count, not a safety outcome.
Chevrolet Suburban Engine Output and Drivetrain Statistics
The 2025 Suburban offered three listed engines: two gasoline V8s and a turbo-diesel. All three used the Hydra-Matic 10L80 10-speed automatic transmission.
| 2025 engine | Output | Torque | Compression ratio |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5.3-liter V8 | 355 hp at 5,600 rpm | 383 lb-ft at 4,100 rpm | 11.0:1 |
| 6.2-liter V8 | 420 hp at 5,600 rpm | 460 lb-ft at 4,100 rpm | 11.5:1 |
| 3.0-liter turbo-diesel | 305 hp at 3,750 rpm | 495 lb-ft at 2,750 rpm | 15:2:1 |
Source for the table: Meet the new 2025 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban. The source lists SAE-certified outputs and the corresponding engine speeds for the 2025 U.S. model.
The listed bore and stroke dimensions were 3.78 by 3.62 inches for the 5.3-liter V8, 4.06 by 3.62 inches for the 6.2-liter V8, and 3.30 by 3.54 inches for the diesel. The transmission’s first-gear ratio was 4.69:1, its tenth-gear ratio was 0.63:1, and the final-drive ratio was 3.23:1 for all three engines.
These are mechanical specifications rather than independent acceleration, reliability or fuel-economy outcomes. The diesel’s listed torque peak occurs at a lower engine speed than either V8’s listed torque peak.
Chevrolet Suburban Capacity, Weight and Towing Measurements
The 2025 specification data distinguishes drivetrain and engine combinations. Base curb weight and payload figures are comparison specifications; actual carrying capacity depends on equipment, loading and weight distribution.
| Configuration | Base curb weight | Maximum payload | Standard trailering |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2WD 5.3-liter | 5,680 lb | 1,750 lb | 7,700 lb |
| 4WD 5.3-liter | 5,873 lb | 1,759 lb | Not listed here |
| 2WD 6.2-liter | 5,858 lb | 1,612 lb | Not listed here |
| 4WD 6.2-liter | 6,051 lb | 1,612 lb | Not listed here |
| 2WD 3.0-liter diesel | 5,859 lb | 1,625 lb | 8,100 lb |
| 4WD 3.0-liter diesel | 6,053 lb | 1,539 lb | Not listed here |
Source: Meet the new 2025 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban. Passengers, cargo and options can reduce tow capacity.
The same source listed maximum trailering estimates of 8,200 pounds for 2WD 5.3-liter, 8,000 pounds for 4WD 5.3-liter, 8,100 pounds for 2WD diesel and 7,800 pounds for 4WD diesel. GM identified these as estimates and noted that additional equipment may be required.
Chevrolet’s 2025 consumer page listed maximum cargo volume at 144.5 cubic feet. The 2023 specification sheet separately listed 144.7 cubic feet, so those model-year measurements should not be mixed.
Chevrolet Suburban Fuel Range and Technology Reach
The 2025 Suburban’s listed fuel tank capacity was approximately 28 U.S. gallons for both 2WD and 4WD configurations. Chevrolet advertised up to 728 miles of EPA-estimated maximum highway range per tank.
The range figure is a maximum advertised estimate, not a guaranteed distance for every engine, trim, load or route. Actual range varies with driving conditions and configuration.
The 2025 cabin technology measurements included a 17.7-inch-diagonal center touchscreen and an 11-inch-diagonal driver information center. Chevrolet also said Super Cruise was available on more than 400,000 miles of roads in the United States and Canada.
That road figure describes manufacturer-reported mapped-road coverage, not miles driven or a safety outcome. Chevrolet separately reported that Super Cruise users drove more than 40 million hands-free miles per month in aggregate; that figure was not Suburban-only usage and was not independently audited.

Chevrolet Suburban Recall and Ownership-Cost Data
NHTSA identified 22,169 Chevrolet Suburban vehicles potentially involved in an L87 engine-loss-of-propulsion recall filed in 2025. The population covered specified 6.2-liter V8 RPO L87 vehicles produced from March 1, 2021 through May 31, 2024, and it included model years 2021–2024.
NHTSA stated that the defect could cause loss of propulsion and increase crash risk. That is a documented risk description, not a measured crash count, confirmed failure count or completed-repair count.
The recall bulletin’s working-capital assistance schedule listed the following amounts for a Chevrolet Suburban repair:
| Model year | Dealer working-capital assistance | What it measures |
|---|---|---|
| 2021 | $17.70 | U.S. dealer reimbursement schedule |
| 2022 | $19.28 | U.S. dealer reimbursement schedule |
| 2023 | $21.03 | U.S. dealer reimbursement schedule |
| 2024 | $24.23 | U.S. dealer reimbursement schedule |
Source: Safety Recall N252494000 L87 Engine Loss of Propulsion. These amounts are dealer working-capital assistance, not an owner’s retail repair bill.
The recall population and reimbursement schedule should therefore be read narrowly: they document a defined U.S. vehicle population and a dealer-support amount, not a general ownership-cost average. The delivery figures likewise describe reported U.S. deliveries rather than the number of Suburbans currently in service.
