The refreshed 2025 Chevy Suburban just got its big debut, with The General pulling the sheets on a new exterior design, a new interior, a wealth of new tech features, and a new diesel engine option to boot. The refreshed 2025 Suburban was unveiled alongside its slightly smaller stablemate, the refreshed 2025 Chevy Tahoe. Both SUVs are set to launch late next year.
Outside, the refreshed 2025 Chevy Suburban features a new design that takes cues from Chevy’s latest pickup truck models, with a new lighting setup that incorporates C-shaped lighting signatures. The rear lighting was revised as well. RST and High Country variants offer wheel sizing up to 24 inches in diameter, while Cypress Gray and Lakeshore Blue Metallic join the paint options list.
Moving into the cabin, the 2025 Chevy Suburban interior is now headlined by a standard 17.7-inch-diagonal infotainment screen, which is mounted alongside an 11-inch-diagonal driver information center. The center console now includes new storage options and a repositioned wireless charging pad, while trim options include Piano Black and Galvano chrome, plus authentic wood for the High Country. Jet Black / Mocha is on the list of available interior colorways. The GM Super Cruise semi-autonomous driver assist system will be offered. There’s also new trailering tech, such as Trailer Tire Health, Mobile Trailering App Load Rating Info, and Forward Path Indication.
Under the hood, the refreshed 2025 Chevy Suburban will offer the new 3.0L I6 LZ0 turbodiesel Duramax engine, which doles out 305 horsepower and 495 pound-feet of torque, a 10-percent improvement in horsepower and a 7.6-percent improvement in torque compared to the 3.0L I6 LM2 turbodiesel Duramax engine offered previously. The new 3.0L I6 LZ0 engine will be available after launch during the 2025 calendar year. The gasoline engine lineup once again includes the naturally aspirated 5.3L V8 L84 and the naturally aspirated 6.2L V8 L87.
Under the skin, GM refined the multilink rear suspension design to offer improved ride and handling. Air Ride Adaptive Suspension and Magnetic Ride Control are once again available features.
Look for the refreshed 2025 Chevy Suburban to go on sale late next year, with additional details, including official pricing info, expected closer to the launch date.

Chevy further pushes the needle away from the Ford Expedition and closer into Lincoln Nav territory
hahaaaa... Navigator deams of being chased by Suburban...
Don't kid yourself. This is far and away superior to Expedition and closer to the Nav.
If the suburban is this nice I’ll be interested to see what the Yukons and Escalades bring to the table
The Navigator Sales Numbers do not match up to the Suburban's....haaaaaa
Looks great - especially the interior. It's about time!
Did I see a "column-style" shifter?
Column shifter Mercedes Benz style unfortunately, I prefer GM ones.
If we were in different times, I would consider getting another Suburban, this one looks really good! I have zero complaints interior or exterior, all looks real good. I like the diesel, but it would be nice to see the 5.3 and 6.2 upgraded.
They can downgrade the 5.3 & 6.2 for me. I wouldn't cry if the troublesome death on demand lifters and dual mode oil pumps rode off into the sunset.
I see your point. Upgrading to me, would be to get rid of cylinder deactivation and add hp/torque. Getting rid of cylinder deactivation would almost entirely solve the lifter problem (solid lifters). In our 2015 Suburban that we recently sold, I had installed a cylinder deactivation 'defeat' kit as soon as the warranty was up, which never allowed my 5.3 to go into 4-cylinder mode by keeping the lifters locked in their full-length mode (this supposedly cuts down dramatically on lifter failure risk). If memory serves me correct, GM had a terrible problem with lifters for several months in 2021 due to a supplier issue...as long as you didn't get one of those lifters, then the problem was far less likely to present itself. Seems to me that they had a run of bad lifters back around 2011 as well.
That High Country is a snazzy-lookin' rig. Bet it costs a pretty penny, too.
These articles would benefit from showing the current and refreshed models side by side for each view...front, side, rear, and interior.
Those of us not watching the market as much have a hard time spotting the differences. Maybe it's just me though 🤷
I wish I could buy a suburban or Yukon XL but they are just too expensive
James you are correct. I was lucky to have purchased my new Suburban RST in 2021. Since then GM dropped the option of the Navigation and Entertainment system and Sunroof in the RST model. I just checked and to purchase a comparable 2023 Chev Suburban with the sunroof will cost approximately $20,000 more. I can't imagine what the 2025 price will be.
A really nice update. I find it much more refined and upscale looking...and the upgrade in features, starting with the shifter are finally of this decade. The diesel specs look great. Then there's the badging...how much does it cost to lose the glunky high country exterior badging and truly tasteless script on the headrests? I really think they sould leave that kind of window dressing to the Denali. Overall, much better than I would have expected. Nice job.
Very nice.
This was a surprise seeing the refreshed 2025 Suburban being announced this soon, but a welcome one. I really appreciate the updates and improvements that Chevy has given the current Suburban, especially the cabin space, new diesel, and new exterior lighting. Looking forward to seeing this in person at an auto show near me soon.
No thank you. I will take the reliability of an 06 and stick a Alpine head unit in it, that is all the tech I need.
We had a 2004 Suburban (same vintage as 2006), we never had a single problem with it for the time that we owned it. They used solid lifters back then.
They did not use solid lifters back then - well they did on race engines, but not on Suburban engines.
Hydraulic lifters were used then and hydraulic lifters are used today.
I probably have my terminology wrong, but what I meant was that they weren't collapsible lifters, such as they are now. I don't think we saw too many lifter failures before going to cylinder deactivation which uses the collapsible lifters to operate.
That's what hydraulic lifters do - they compress/cushion between the camshaft and the pushrods. Solid lifters do not collapse but they're loud and vibrate - they're used for race engines typically.
Hydraulic lifters are used with or without AFM. Perhaps you're referring to the software driven solenoids that are used on AFM system lifters for when their respective cylinder is deactivated.
If you don't know, you really shouldn't be making allegations about engine failures and such.
