2011 Chevy Tahoe Hybrid: By The Seat Of My Pants
My Thoughts
Overall this is a very comfortable SUV that gets great gas mileage for its size. The leather seats are supportive and afford someone as tall as me (6’4”) a comfortable ride, even in the 3rd row. All the controls are easy to use and all within reach. The stereo has tabs for all functions that are easy to read and large enough to make it easy to choose the right tab. The screen is also large enough to easily see all the functions and to be able to read the road names when using navigation. The only downside to the stereo I found was that it was placed slightly lower than I would have liked. It forces you to take your eyes off the road to look at it.
On the downside there is very little luggage room when using the 3rd row of seats. Also on the Hybrid model tested there is no roof rack. The other thing I noticed was that during slow driving, you could hear a whine from the electric/hybrid motor.
Aside from those 2 things this is a great family SUV. If you happen to have $51,000 lying around and you are in the market for a SUV that is not only comfortable but the most fuel efficient in its class then head over to your local Chevy dealer or check Chevy.com and take one for a test drive today.
