2027 Chevrolet Tahoe
The Tahoe got a facelift in 2025, so 2027 brings few changes: a new White Sands color for the RST and Z71, heated and ventilated seats standard on the RST, and a Sun and Tow Package that now includes a trailering camera system. Super Cruise availability expands across High Country configurations. MSRP runs $63,995 to $86,995.

Record summary
What to know first
The 2027 Tahoe carries over its three-engine lineup and 8,400 lb max tow rating unchanged. Real trim changes for 2027: the LS Custom Edition appearance package is discontinued after a single MY2026 production year; High Country becomes 4WD-only (no more 2WD High Country); and RST gains standard heated/ventilated front seats and 4-way power lumbar, previously Premier/High Country-exclusive.
Model-year note
GM Authority reports (unconfirmed by GM directly, but from two separate reports) that no new engine options are coming for 2027, which rules out persistent redesign speculation for this model year. Production is reported to start September 8, 2026 at GM's Arlington Assembly plant in Texas, tentative per GM Authority's own caveat. This is not a full redesign: the current (5th) generation began in 2021 with a mid-cycle refresh for 2025, and on that generation's historical cadence (1995, 2000, 2007, 2015, 2021, averaging 6.5 years) a full redesign is not expected before 2028 at the earliest.
