Transcript:Alright, we’re looking at the top-spec 2025 Chevy Suburban, which has received a refresh this year. That includes updated exterior styling at the front and rear, along with new technology inside.This is the High Country trim with four-wheel drive, though a two-wheel-drive version is available. There are multiple trims and three engine options overall—two gas engines and a diesel. This particular model is powered by the 6.2-liter V8.The exterior color is Dark Ash Metallic, which costs about $500 in Canada, but is included on the High Country in the U.S. It’s also equipped with optional 24-inch wheels and power running boards. This example is nearly fully loaded, though it’s missing Super Cruise, which is a bit surprising.As for styling, the updates front and rear give it a more modern look. Comparing it to the GMC Yukon, I personally lean toward the Yukon—I used to own a Yukon XL, which is essentially the same size as the Suburban. That said, both are classic full-size family SUVs.Driving ImpressionsLet’s go for a drive.The Suburban is very comfortable. This one has the optional air ride suspension, which helps smooth things out. The 6.2-liter V8 produces 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission.This model also has the Max Trailering Package, allowing it to tow up to 8,200 pounds. It’s a four-wheel-drive model, though lower trims can be had with two-wheel drive.From behind the wheel, it’s easy to get comfortable. I’m 5’1″, and in many large vehicles, finding the right driving position can be a challenge, but not here. The seats are comfortable—fairly flat and not overly contoured, but that suits the vehicle’s purpose. It’s not meant to be sporty.Cabin noise is reasonable. It’s not luxury-car quiet, but it’s far from loud or intrusive. Overall, it’s well-suited for long drives.I’ve taken a similar vehicle—a Yukon Denali—on a family road trip from Vancouver to San Diego and back, and it proved to be an excellent road trip vehicle for a family of five. These SUVs really shine in that role.Interior and CargoThe Suburban’s size hasn’t changed for 2025—it’s still massive. With the third row folded down, there’s a huge amount of cargo space. You can power-fold both the second and third rows from the rear, and even with the third row up, there’s still plenty of room.There’s also a 120-volt outlet in the cargo area, which is useful.Inside, the big update is the new infotainment system. There’s a large touchscreen with Google built-in, along with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The driver display is now fully digital, and there’s also a head-up display—though in this case, it’s difficult to position …
