The Most Fuel-Efficient Vehicle in Its Class

With an EPA-estimated 20 MPG city /23 highway, Tahoe Hybrid3 offers best-in-class fuel economy4, plus the capability you've come to expect from Tahoe. Towing. Hauling. Driving six kids around. With 332 horsepower, 367 lb.—ft. of torque and up to 6,200 lbs. of towing capacity5, Tahoe Hybrid rises to every challenge.

Whether you're navigating the neighborhood or taking it off the beaten path, you'll have peace of mind knowing that you've chosen the most fuel-efficient full-size SUV out there4, and it's backed by a 100,000-mile/5-year powertrain warranty and a 100,000-mile/8-year warranty6 on certain hybrid components.

Exterior

Rugged Good Looks

The 2012 Tahoe Hybrid has all of the impressive styling cues you'd expect from Tahoe. Impressive styling starts right up front and carries through every detail. An unmistakably powerful grille, stylish 18", 12-spoke aluminum wheels and an aggressive stance highlighted by a wide track and large tires. Sleek, yet rugged lines that reflect its go anywhere, do anything attitude. Plus, Tahoe Hybrid has been specifically engineered for aerodynamic efficiency and weight savings.

All-Around Aerodynamics

Tahoe Hybrid id engineered to make your trek as efficient as possible. The 18" 12-spoke aluminum wheels not only make for lightweight travel but also for efficient airflow. The fascia's lower air dam and assist steps' integrated spats further improve airflow around the sides of the vehicle.

Efficient Design

Aside from its sleek appearance, Tahoe Hybrid was designed for efficiency. The sharp crisp lines running along the rear exterior reduces drag, allowing the air to run freely off the vehicle, improving fuel economy. Lightweight aluminum in the hood, liftgate and wheels helps offset the weight of the battery.

Interior

Room for Adventure
Spacious and then some. A perfect balance of form and function, the Tahoe Hybrid interior features the best in comfort and amenities. Not to mention ample seating for eight, and power-adjustable heated leather-appointed front seats.
Driver Information Center
Get updates on your vehicle when and where you need them most. Provides important readouts of vehicle functions, such as engine oil life, tire pressure, fuel range and mileage. Includes warning messages and personalized settings.
Power Flow Diagram
The hybrid system in your Tahoe Hybrid is constantly adjusting to optimize efficiency7. The power flow diagram, located right on the navigation screen, allows you to track how the hybrid system is functioning in real time.
Total Climate Control
Tri-zone automatic climate controls feature individual climate settings for driver, front passenger and rear passengers. Heated-leather-appointed 6-way power front bucket seats provide added comfort.

Capability

Unrivaled economy, full-size power

The brain of the Tahoe Hybrid is a control module—the hybrid operating system—that monitors the drive system hundreds of times a second. In stop-and-go conditions, the hybrid operating system employs gas or electric power—or a mixture of both—and can turn the gas engine off when moving less than 30 mph. When you need to tow a heavy load, the transmission shifts to one of the fixed gears and uses the power of the V8.

Regenerative Breaking

Regenerative braking captures energy that would otherwise be expended by braking friction. By using one or both of the electronically variable transmissions tractive motors as a generator, braking energy is converted to electrical energy and stored in the battery for future use.

Safety

Full-Size Safety

There's a lot riding in your Tahoe Hybrid. That's why it includes some of the latest safety technology to help keep you safe on the road. Advanced electronic systems, coupled with engineering characteristics, like its steel safety cage, work together to help prevent collisions and to help protect you if you're in one. It's comprehensive safety before, during and after a collision.

Before

The StabiliTrak® Electronic Stability Control System with Traction Control and four-wheel antilock brakes help you stay in control in slippery road conditions, and Proactive Roll Avoidance engages automatically to help reduce the risk of a rollover crash. The standard Tire Pressure Monitor is designed to let you know when tire pressure levels are less than optimal.

During

Tahoe Hybrid is equipped with six standard air bags14 for the driver, right front passenger and outboard rear occupants, and a steel safety cage to help preserve occupant space in the vehicle.

After

OnStar® Automatic Crash Response15, standard for the first six months on the Tahoe Hybrid, means you can be automatically connected to emergency assistance if an accident occurs—whether or not the air bags deploy.
