Under the hood, the 2016 Suburban LTZ is powered by Chevrolet’s proven 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 engine producing 355 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque, delivering strong acceleration and excellent towing performance for a full-size SUV.
The V8 provides smooth and effortless power delivery, making highway merging, towing, and carrying passengers feel easy and confident.

One of the biggest highlights of the LTZ trim is the available Magnetic Ride Control suspension system, which continuously adjusts suspension damping based on road conditions.

Step inside the Suburban LTZ and you’re immediately greeted by one of the most spacious and luxurious interiors in its class. Chevrolet designed the cabin with high-quality materials, soft-touch surfaces, woodgrain accents, and premium leather seating throughout, giving the SUV a true luxury feel.
The seats are wide, supportive, and designed for long-distance comfort, while second-row passengers enjoy generous space and available heated seating. The third row is also large enough for adults on shorter trips, something many SUVs struggle to provide.

The power-folding third-row seats also add flexibility, allowing the interior to quickly transition from passenger-focused to cargo-focused when needed.
