2021 Chevy Tahoe Z71 Is Utterly Destroyed In A Crash
29Sponsored Links
General Motors just unveiled the all-new 2021 Chevy Tahoe last December, with dealer deliveries in the U.S ramping up over the summer following a brief production delay resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Inevitably, some of these SUVs will end up wrecked, just like the 2021 Tahoe Z71 model we see here.
Of course, there are arguably several different levels to the term “wrecked,” but in this case, the phrase “completely and utterly totalled” is fitting. Found on the online auto auctions website Copart, this 2021 Chevy Tahoe Z71 looks like it got thrown into a shallow mud pit at high speed, then subsequently rolled hard. The entire driver’s side of the vehicle is torn away, with the front suspension, fender, and doors ripped off. Pictures of the interior show deployed airbags surrounding the driver’s seat, demonstrating just how bad this crash truly was.
The reverse side of this wrecked 2021 Chevy Tahoe Z71 is mud streaked and dented up, with a huge chunk of muddy grass wedged between the door and fender.
The listing places this lot in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, with an estimated retail value of $61,495, plus the naturally aspirated 5.3L V8 L84 mounted under the hood. As for what’s it’s worth now, well, that’s hard to say, as it’s unclear what’s actually salvageable on this utterly ruined 4×4.
Whatever the story is, we hope all involved made it out okay.
As a reminder, the 2021 Chevy Tahoe Z71 is an off-road focused trim level with standard 4WD traction, a redesigned front fascia and higher approach angle, a two-speed transfer case, Hill Descent Control, front skid plates, red tow hooks, 20-inch wheels, and all-terrain tires. The Z71 also comes with black and black-chrome exterior accents.

Looks like an accident.
Flood victims are everywhere
I’d bet they needed their diapers changed.
Shame, probably a spoiled, gear head that had the “I’m entitled “mentality. Shame,shame
Can’t see a drive out tag, just what looks like a dealer’s advertisement tag so could have been wrecked on a test drive or stolen from the car lot itself.
$61.000 y’all crazy. I drive a Chevy
Love’em but y’all crazy $61.000.
$61.000 y’all crazy
Maybe it fell off a trailer
Went off a bridge into a Bayou.
I’m thinking since it’s from Baton Rouge LA and they had a few hurricanes this SUV might of got picked up from the hurricane and this is the aftermath.
Looks like he rolled into a ditch and they had to cut him out through his door with the jaws of life or he smacked a tree or 6 on the way down… Poor dead bastard
Looks like a driver side frontal impact with something relatively stiff and sharp (metal bridge railing?), that “peeled back” the left side from the front bumper through the back door, before flipping the vehicle multiple times. Hard to believe the driver would have survived this, based on the visual of the seat cushion being dislodged from the frame, the debris inside the passenger area, and the likelihood that the airbags were compromised by their direct interactions with the outside world (unprotected from puncture or friction by the peeled-back doors).
This is what happens when you put the wrong fuel in your car.
Did they say they wont 61000 for this just go get a brand new one for that ? Wtf
They didn’t say they wanted $61,000 for it, they’re saying how much it’s worth when brand new. 🙄
most likely a stolen or car jacked and someone played off road racing with it.
Darn automatic car washes. Always hand wash your car!!🤣🤣
Sure would like to know the rest of the story.
Anyone injured?
Looks like it got hit by a freight train.
It started with…”hold my beer”
