TrueDelta Reviews the Available Features of the 2016--2012-2010-2014-2012 Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban
2016--2012-2010-2014-2012 Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban Available Features: Pros

2015
GM's latest investment in its large SUVs bought more than new exteriors and interiors. It also equipped them with the latest features. Don't want to have to take your key out of your pocket to unlock or start the Chevrolet Tahoe? Done. How about a heated steering wheel? Done. And the latest safety tech, including forward collision warning and lane departure warning? Also done.
You can't get any of these features on the updated Ford Expedition even though they're now expected in a $60,000-plus vehicle
Not that the Expedition's feature list reads like that of a Yugo. Many other features--including HID headlights, rain-sensing wipers, blind spot warning, obstacle detection on both ends, rearview cameras, heated-and-cooled front seats, heated second row seats, power-folding third-row seats, power liftgate, and power-retracting running boards--are available on both the Chevrolet and the Ford.
