By General Motors of Canada, Oshawa - New connectivity and convenience features are coming this fall to the recently launched 2015 Tahoe and Suburban, enhancing the redesigned SUVs and adding to the momentum of one of Chevrolet's most successful launches this year.
The new features include OnStar 4G LTE with a standard built-in Wi-Fi hotspot, wireless phone charging capability and a hands-free liftgate. All will be offered in vehicles produced starting in October.
"The 2015 Tahoe and Suburban provide customers with greater capability, efficiency and safety that has made Chevrolet the go-to brand for full-size SUVs," said Bob McClelland, brand director for Chevrolet in Canada. "This generation has been designed for today's active families needing space for everyone and everything, and continues to offer legendary roominess, unmatched functionality, connectivity and first-class amenities."
Chevrolet is the first and only car brand to bring built-in 4G LTE Wi-Fi to cars, trucks and crossovers.
Year-over-year retail sales of the Tahoe and Suburban have more than doubled in Canada. Together the Tahoe and Suburban hold more than 30 percent of the segment and play an important role in Chevrolet's success.
OnStar with 4G LTE with a built-in WiFi hotspot is standard on LT and LTZ models. It provides a mobile hub for drivers and passengers to stay connected. The hostpot is on whenever the vehicle is on and comes with a three-month/three gigabyte data trial (whichever comes first), after which the customer can purchase additional data.
The hands-free liftgate and wireless phone charging are included with the available Luxury Package on LT models and they're standard on LTZ. The hands-free liftgate feature allows a customer with a keyless entry fob - and full hands - to open and close the liftgate by waving his or her foot under a sensor beneath the rear fascia.
With the wireless phone charging feature, a magnetic inductive charging system allows users to simply place their phone on a small mat in the vehicle, where it wirelessly charges.
All-new for 2015

A new EcoTec3 5.3L V-8 engine is standard in Tahoe and Suburban and features direct injection, cyinder deactivation, continuously variable valve timing and an advanced combustion system designed to make the most of power, torque and efficiency across a broad range of operating conditions. They contribute to fuel consumption ratings of 14.9 L/100km in the city and 10.2 L/100km on the highway (2WD models) - a nearly 10 percent increase in highway efficiency over the previous models and 7 percent greater in the city.
