The Tahoe is sold in North America, parts of Asia such as the Philippines, and the Middle East, plus other countries including Bolivia, Chile, Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, and Angola as a left-hand-drive vehicle.

Other notable features of the Tahoe Limited included the Z60 high-performance chassis package (commonly known as the police package) which places the body of the vehicle 2 in (51 mm) lower than the 4WD Tahoe, two-tone gray and charcoal leather interior seating surfaces, a 120 mph (190 km/h) gauge cluster, 46 mm (1.8 in) Bilstein shock absorbers, a 3.42:1 or optional 3.73:1 rear axle ratio, a limited slip rear differential, an engine oil cooling system, and distinctive 16-inch Ronal R36 five-spoke aluminum wheels wearing 255/70R16 tires.

Features that differ from those previously mentioned on the Tahoe Limited included the Z71 off-road chassis package (46 mm (1.8 in) Bilstein shock absorbers, a standard 3.73:1 rear axle ratio for the G80 locking differential), color-keyed wheel flares, trim, grille, and bumpers, underbody skid plates, inset driving lights built into the center of the front bumper, oversized two-row radiator, two-tone leather seating surfaces in either a gray or neutral theme, distinctive taillamp lens protectors, black tubular side assist step bars, black brush guard, and distinctive 16-inch Alcoa five-spoke six-lug polished aluminum wheels.

A larger 6.0 L engine, embossed side body panels, slightly reworked headlights with projector-beam lenses and reworked turn signal indicators, exclusive six-spoke 17-inch polished aluminum wheels with "GMC" embossed center caps, unique chrome "punch" grille, monochromatic front bumper with unique rounded fog lamps, monochromatic rear bumper, "DENALI" lettering on both front doors, exclusive two-tone leather seating surfaces with heated second row seats, a Driver Information Center module located in the center console, premium Bose Lux sound system with optional rear DVD entertainment system, and "YUKON DENALI" stitching on interior door surfaces and front headrests differentiate the Yukon Denali from the regular Yukon.

LT models feature power-adjustable, body-color exterior mirrors with power folding and memory, auto dimming, and integrated turn signal indicators - RPO code, DL3.

A redesigned instrument cluster featured a new Driver Information Center, which can monitor and report on up to 34 different vehicle system functions such as Service StabiliTrak, Ice Possible, and Door Ajar.

A new battery-rundown protection system automatically turns off the headlamps, parking lamps, and interior lighting if left on for more than 10 minutes with the key removed from the ignition.

The interior was significantly redesigned as well, with features such as a faux wood trim dashboard with chrome-accented instrument controls and new inset gauge cluster design.

Also, The Apprentice sponsored a controversial online contest in which anyone could create a 30-second commercial for the new Tahoe by entering text captions into the provided video clips; the winner's ad would air on national television.

An early example of user-generated marketing, headed by ad agency Campbell Ewald, the campaign began to backfire when hundreds of environmentally conscious parodies flooded YouTube and Chevy's website critiquing the vehicle for its low gas mileage.

Production on the Tahoe and Yukon began in December 2013 with the first completed SUVs being used for testing purposes,[20] and started officially shipping the vehicles to dealerships on February 5, 2014.

Both fourth-generation SUVs no longer share a single piece of sheet metal or lighting element with the brands' full-size pickup trucks, and the front grilles of both vehicles are slightly altered to give them their own identity.

Standard third-row seats and raised "fold-flat" platform significantly reduced available cargo space compared with previous Tahoe models.

As with the previous Z71 Tahoe, this version continued to be offered in a 4WD LT trim only, featuring a front skid plate, off-road tires mounted on 18-inch wheels, a unique grille, running boards, and "Z71" identification inside and out.

On March 23, 2014, a 2015 GMC Yukon caught fire and went up in flames in Anaheim, California, after a couple, who along with the sales representative who was giving them a test drive, noticed the vehicle stopping and that smoke was starting to make its way into the cabin, prompting the three individuals to park the car and escape before it was destroyed within 15 minutes.

[29] The Tahoe received 4G LTE, Wi-Fi, and Siri capability, a new color palette, Brownstone Metallic, and added a hands-free power liftgate feature that is standard on LTZ, but included on LT with the optional Luxury Package.

[30] The Yukon, in addition to receiving the aforementioned features, saw the 6.2-liter EcoTec3 V8 engine being updated with the new 8L90E eight-speed automatic transmission for the interim model year, allowing it to improve fuel economy.

A new push-button shifter column (P, R, N, D) is placed on the dashboard, nine camera displays for enhanced towing capabilities, and a total of 30 additional safety features have been implemented throughout the Tahoe.

It also features a Duramax diesel engine as an option (available on all trims and packages except for the Z71) for the first time; a 3.0-liter I6 which produces 277 hp (207 kW; 281 PS) and 460 lb⋅ft (624 N⋅m) of torque, a segment-exclusive.

[49][50][51] In November 2020, GM announced that its large SUV lineup would be imported to China, marking the Tahoe and Yukon Denali's maiden entry into the country, starting with the 5th generation models.

Other changes include new 24-inch wheels, a revised interior with a standard 17.7-inch-diagonal infotainment screen and redesigned center console, ride and handling improvements, and additional towing and trailering technology.

[60][61] On August 3, 2020, GM sent out a new TSB (Technical Service Bulletin) that addresses a potential issue related to the engine oil cooler lines on the 2021 Tahoe and Yukon.

[65] The Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid uses a combination of its 6.0L V8 engine that can also run on V4 mode and two 60 kW (80 hp) (continuous) electric motors with a 300-volt, 1.53 kWh nickel–metal hydride battery.

In Brazil, the Tahoe GMT400 was sold under the name of "Grand Blazer", sourced from Argentina with rear-wheel drive only, regionally-sourced 6-cylinder engines (the late-type 4.1L MPFI Chevrolet straight-6 gasoline and the 4.2L MWM Sprint 6.07T diesel) and manual transmission.

The Tahoe was also assembled in Venezuela from CKD kits for three generations, being phased out in 2014 along most of the local Chevrolet range due to unfavorable economic conditions and political circumstances.

The center of gravity in this vehicle is lower than that of the four-wheel-drive version and the ground clearance is about 1 in (25 mm) less, with a standard rear bumper replacing the tow hitch on civilian Tahoes.

As of the 2012 model year, the Tahoe was the last body-on-frame, rear-wheel-drive police vehicle manufactured for the United States market since Ford phased out its aging Panther platform.

It also does not include wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto (although still offers wired versions of both), SiriusXM Satellite Radio with 360L, or the Google-based operating system (on 2022 and newer models).

[74] The militarization of standard GM trucks/SUVs to become LSSVs includes exterior changes such as CARC paint (Forest Green, Desert Sand, or 3-color Camouflage), blackout lights, military bumpers, a brush guard, a NATO slave receptacle/NATO trailer receptacle, a pintle hook, tow shackles and a 24/12-volt electrical system.

The truck also can be equipped with weapon supports in the cab, cargo tie down hooks, folding troop seats, pioneer tools, winches, and other military accessories.
