5 Standout Features of the 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe

The 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe is the most advanced Tahoe yet. It's often classed as one of the best large SUVs on the market thanks to it being packed with features that not only make it safe but also make it powerful enough for a variety of uses. Here are five of the standout features of Chevrolet's newest Tahoe:

5 Standout Features of the 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe

1. Cargo Capacity

Cargo space is just one of many areas in which the Tahoe delivers. With all seats bar the driver's seat folded down, the vehicle offers a maximum cargo capacity of 122.9 cubic feet. This is huge. You will fit everything you want in and still have space to bear. Even if you have all seats up, there is still a respectable 25.5 cubic feet of cargo space available for daily use.   Folding down the third-row seats while still keeping all others upright will still net you a cargo space of 72.6 cubic feet. An outstanding amount considering that most vehicles have less capacity than this as their maximum. Also, thanks to the space available in the interior, the vehicle feels roomy and since there is plenty of legroom, the driver and passengers alike will be comfortable.  

2. Engine + Transmission

With an option of five engines, there will definitely be one that's perfect for you. All engines come with Dynamic Fuel Management, and some engine options come with Stop/Start technology to further improve fuel efficiency. Engine choices include a 5.3-liter ECOTEC3 V8, a 6.2-liter ECOTEC3 V8, and a Duramax 3.0-liter turbo diesel engine.   The diesel engine provides 277 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque, while the highest model gas engines can provide up to 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque. All come with a 10-speed automatic transmission.  

Drive Train

Chevrolet has given Tahoe buyers a choice of an All-Wheel drivetrain and a 4-Wheel drivetrain. Since both offer solid performance no matter whether you are driving on-road or off-road, you'll enjoy the capabilities provided.  

3. Safety Features

Safety is synonymous with Chevrolet, and they have delivered once again. Standard in all models is an Automatic Emergency Braking system that works in conjunction with the Forward Collision Alert system to lessen the seriousness of accidents. Front Pedestrian Braking is also standard as is a Following Distance Indicator.   Extra safety features include Rear Cross Traffic Alert and Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning.

Camera Views

Nine camera views are available on the Tahoe, and the digital reconstruction overhead shot gives you a great view of the positioning of your car around other objects.  

4. Chevrolet Infotainment 3 System

Chevrolet's infotainment system is one of the best on the market. The system contains a 15-inch Head-Up Display for the driver so that they never have to take their eyes off the road. The vehicle's speed and navigation directions can be shown on the windscreen, along with other information you may need.  

Media System

The Tahoe's media system also outdoes itself, with integrated Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, as well as Bluetooth connectivity, both a satellite and HD radio, a six-speaker stereo system, and six USB ports located throughout the vehicle. A 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot is also available. These can be all managed via the center console's 10.2-inch touchscreen.  

Rear Media Screens

Your passengers won't ever complain of being bored again, thanks to the twin pair of 12.6-inch touch screens located on the rear of the driver and front passenger headrests. The screens, and combined with the Wi-Fi hotspot, will offer the chance to watch a movie or stream cable TV.  

5. Seating

The Chevy Tahoe can fit up to eight people on very comfortable seats. The driver and front passenger have can have either 10-way or 12-way powered seating, which ensures the seat will support their body in all the right areas. Heated seating is also available so you won't have to suffer through cold months. Whether you plan on driving the Chevrolet Tahoe on city streets or taking it on a weekend away in the forest, it will excel. Give us a call at Ed Martin Chevrolet today to test drive the beast today.

Chevrolet Silverado Towing Technology That Makes Every Haul Easier

When Anderson, Indiana truck drivers need a capable towing machine, they come back to Chevrolet continuously. The 2026 Chev y Silverado is built for drivers who actually put their truck to work, from h auling equipment, towing camper s, pulling boat s, and handling weekend projects. But raw muscle isn’t enough—the Chev y Silverado brings impressive towing technology that’s designed to make the job feel more manageable — no matter your experience level behind the wheel. You Won’t Miss A Thing The Silverado offers up to 14 camera views to see every aspect of your trailer with 3 hitch views, 7 driving views, and 5 parking views. One of the standout s is Hitch Guidance with Hitch View, which uses a rear-facing camera to help you line up your trailer with greater precision. If you've ever struggled to back up to a hitch alone, this feature alone can save you a lot of frustration. The innovative Transparent Trailer View lets you see “through” the trailer, while Front and Rear Underbody Views let you keep an eye on obstacles below. HD Surround View gives you a bird’s-eye perspective of your vehicle and trailer for unparalleled clarity. And turn signal-activated Rear Side View shows a full screen down the side of your truck with a Trailer Length Indicator for safer lane changes. These angles and more let you breathe a little easier in every scenario. Driver Assist Features Specifically for Towing The driver assist features built into the Silverado are especially helpful for drivers who don't tow every day. Available Trailer Side Blind Zone Alert lets you know when a vehicle enters your blind spot while towing, which is a real safety benefit since a trailer extends the zone well beyond your normal mirrors. The available Pro Trailer Backup Assist ™ is another standout among the trailer driver assist features. It allows you to steer your trailer using a knob on the dash while the truck handles the actual steering inputs — particularly helpful when backing into tight spots like campgrounds or jobsites. An I ntegrated Trailer Brake Controller is also available, letting you manage trailer braking directly from the cab without needing an aftermarket add-on. In-Cab Trailering Tools and Connectivity Beyond cameras and sensors, the Silverado offers an available Trailering App through the built-in touchscreen. This tool lets you store up to 5 trailer profiles, run pre-trip checklists, and even monitor trailer tire pressure and battery status on compatible setups, all from your phone. The Chevrolet Silverado’s towing technology extends to the truck's gauge display as well. You can monitor transmission temperature, engine vitals, and trailer sway information right from the driver's seat — keeping you informed so you can react quickly if something changes on the road. Capability That Backs Up the Technology All of this technology support s the Silverado’s serious towing capacity, stemming from 4 power-packed engine options designed to handle a wide range of towing demands. The TurboMax ™ engine comes standard, delivering 310 hp and a Best-in-Class 430 lbs.-ft. of torque. The 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 is a popular choice for most everyday tasks with 355 hp and 383 lbs.-ft. of torque, while the 6.2L V8 is for more challenging jobs. Its 420 hp and 460 lbs.-ft. of torque enables a 13,300-lb. towing capacity. Finally, for long hauls and top-tier efficiency, the Duramax® Turbo-Diesel pushes out 495 lbs.-ft. of torque, enabling that same 13,300-lb. capacity—but with Best-in-Class highway fuel economy of 28 MPG. Find Your Silverado at Ed Martin Chevrolet The Silverado brings the brains along with the brawn. Chevrolet has packed the truck with smart features that support drivers before, during, and after a tow.
