The Suburban has over 75 years of utility vehicle history to uphold. Luckily, the 2011 Chevrolet Suburban keeps all the details that have made the Suburban an SUV staple and adds other features to make it even better than ever. Available in Half-Ton and Three-Quarter-Ton models; LS, LT, and LTZ (Half-Ton only) trim levels; and in 2WD or 4WD drivetrain configurations, the 2011 Suburban is powered by either a 5.3-liter Vortec gas/ethanol V8 engine with Active Fuel Management that generates 320 horsepower and 335 pound-feet of torque (Half-Ton) or a 6.0-liter gas V8 engine with Variable Valve Timing that puts out 352 horsepower and 382 pound-feet of torque (Three-Quarter-Ton). Mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission with overdrive, these engines allow the Suburban to tote around up to 9 people; tons of gear in the 137.4 cubic feet of maximum cargo space; and tow anywhere from 8,100 (Half-Ton) to 9,600 pounds (Three-Quarter-Ton). Fuel efficiency still gets to be included in the list of great features, though, with the Three-Quarter-Ton getting around 10 city/15 highway and the Half-Ton achieving a surprisingly high 15 city/21 highway, numbers that allow it to travel up to 650 miles on a single tank and beat out competitors like the Toyota Sequoia, Nissan Armada, and Ford Expedition on highway fuel economy.
