COUPE SEDAN

Chevy Suburban has earned a strong reputation as North America’s premier full-size SUV for its unmatched comfort, capability and durability. With one of the highest loyalty rates in the industry, Suburban gets several noteworthy enhancements for 2005, keeping this Chevy workhorse in a class all its own.

For 2005, GM’s OnStar safety and security system is now standard in all equipment groups. All Suburban models also have a rear liftgate with flip-up glass, and side-sill assist steps have been redesigned for improved ergonomics.

Suburban’s tire pressure monitoring system has been revised to identify the specific tire and location, replacing the general warning system. The system is now available on 3/4-ton models. An engine oil cooler is now included and only available with 3/4-ton models equipped with the Vortec 8100 8.1L V-8 engine, while a transmission oil cooler is now included with the trailering equipment package or 3/4-ton models

Other functional changes include a more powerful 160-amp alternator standard on all half-ton models. Rear axle ratios are revised, resulting in a 3.42 ratio being standard on all half-ton models and a 3.73 ratio as standard on all 3/4-ton versions.

Equipment group revisions for 2005 include the availability of the Z71 off-road package for 2WD half-ton models; a new optional stereo system with touch-screen navigation system; and 17-inch, five-spoke aluminum wheels now included as part of the uplevel LT package.

Two new exterior colors are available: Sandstone Metallic and Bermuda Blue Metallic.
