America’s First Full-Size Two-Mode Hybrid SUV Is Coming Early 2008

The 2008 Tahoe Hybrid, available in two- or four-wheel drive, provides the power and capability you expect from a utility vehicle while offering fuel efficiency you never imagined — an outstanding EPA estimated MPG of 21 city, 22 highway for 2WD models, and 20 city, 20 highway for 4x4. In fact, 2008 Tahoe Hybrid 2WD offers the same EPA estimated city fuel efficiency as a four-cylinder Toyota Camry

Tahoe Hybrid optimizes efficiency and performance whether you're driving in the city or on the highway and offers up to 50% better city fuel economy over the non-hybrid Tahoe. And it's one of the many ways GM is working to reduce our dependence on petroleum.

Tahoe Hybrid is lowered in both the front and rear and features other aerodynamic enhancements, including integrated assist steps with flared fronts, streamlined hood and specially tuned fascias and front air dam. Another difference between Tahoe Hybrid and the normal production model is the inclusion of Tahoe Hybrid-specific badging and graphics.

In addition, the hood and liftgate are made of lightweight aluminum and the low-mass aluminum wheels are outfitted with low rolling-resistance tires.

Limited availability starting early 2008. Check back in the coming months for more information and updates.
