“The only feature that I really really do not like is the Auto Stop. There is a big hesitation when starting out after it has stopped. I would also like it if you could have a feature that permanently shuts that feature off! Not having to push the off button every time the vehicle has been shut off and started again.”
2022 Chevrolet Tahoe: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026

For 2022, the Chevrolet Tahoe’s biggest change is more standard safety, led by Front and Rear Park Assist and Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning across the lineup. It is not a redesign, but it also brings meaningful tech upgrades and wider availability of the 6.2-liter V8.
About the 2022 Chevrolet Tahoe
5th generation Tahoe (2021-2024), second model year after the full redesign.
Chevrolet positions the Tahoe as a full-size SUV for families and owners who need real passenger room, cargo space, towing ability, and long-trip comfort in one vehicle. Its core appeal is space and flexibility: a roomy third row, big cargo area, available diesel efficiency, strong towing hardware, and a wide trim spread from work-focused fleet use to upscale luxury. Compared with rivals, Chevrolet leans hard on versatility, camera-based trailering tech, and the improved ride and packaging made possible by the independent rear suspension.
The 2022 Tahoe lineup stretches from the work-focused Commercial and straightforward LS to more specialized versions. The RST adds a blacked-out street look, the Z71 brings trail-focused hardware such as a two-speed transfer case and skid plate, and the High Country tops the range with features including a head-up display and surround-view cameras.
