Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid review: The pros and cons

The Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid bills itself as “America’s First Full-Size Two-Mode Hybrid SUV.” This incredibly fuel-efficient hybrid car lowers gas prices for any driver. In fact, this hybrid SUV is so popular that Green Car Journal named it the ‘Green Car of the Year.’

The Tahoe is available in two- or four-wheel drive and uses a “hybrid powertrain.” This system operates in three different ways. First, there is electrical power that serves to maximize fuel economy. Second is the engine power that can be used when more power is needed. Third, a combination of the two types of energy can be used. This comes courtesy of the Vortec V8 that kicks in when needed or shuts down to conserve at other times.

Fight gas prices with Tahoe, which gets around 21 miles per gallon (MPG) in the city or 22 MPG on the highway in two-wheel-drive models. There’s a less-than-significant drop for four-wheel-drive models: 20 MPG city and 20 MPG highway.

The Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid offers excellent fuel economy that helps you save money with high gas prices. This hybrid car (SUV) offers up to 50% better fuel economy around town than the non-hybrid Tahoe. This hybrid SUV truly combines efficiency with the top-tier performance you’d expect from any SUV.
