2020 Chevrolet Suburban Exterior and Dimensions

Chevrolet has kept the Suburbans design up-to-date and though it now nears the end of its eleventh-gen iteration, it's still an SUV that carries a genuinely modern and attractive aesthetic. A dominant black mesh front grille bedecks the LS and LT models, framed with chrome bars only on the Premier. Standard halogen headlights are fitted to the LS and LT models with HID halogen headlights and front fog lamps adorning the Premier, all feature daytime running lights. All models also feature black roof-mounted rails and black assist steps. The LS and LT ride atop 18-inch high-polished alloy wheels, while the Premier has 20-inch polished items. There are ten available wheel options, packaged as standalone add-ons or part of the various appearance packages, and a sunroof is optional, too.

Chevrolet's largest vehicle, the Suburban, is a consummate contender for the full-size three-row SUV class, with the expected dimensions for the segment. At an overall length of 224.4 inches, it's even longer than theFord Expeditionwhich spans a total length of 210 inches, it even has a good 7.5 inches on the Expedition's wheelbase which is capped at 122.5 inches. At a height of 74.4 inches, the Suburban is as tall as the 4WD Expedition, it's a little wider though, with a width of 80.5 inches. Unlike a true off-roader, the Suburban doesn't do well over any degree of rough terrain. Its ground clearance of 7.9 inches is crushed even by the Expedition's 9.8 inches. The Suburbans approach and departure angles aren't too bad though, at 15.5 and 21.1 degrees respectively, with the Expeditions coming through at 23.3 and 21.9 degrees for 4x4 models. Both vehicles are behemoths, with curb weights ranging from 5,586 lbs to 5,808 lbs with the Suburban, depending on your choice of spec and drivetrain, and the Expeditions from 5,368 lbs to 5,623 lbs.
