Chevy Tahoe MPG Ratings

2023 Chevy Tahoe Downtown

If you’re looking for a new full-size SUV that combines style, power, and capability, look no further than the Chevy Tahoe! This eight-passenger SUV is back for the 2023 model year with some exciting new upgrades, including the addition of a turbo-diesel engine and hands-free driving on the top-level configurations. The new diesel engine gives the Chevy Tahoe fuel efficiency a serious boost from the 2022 model year – up to 21 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway! However, the Chevy Tahoe MPG ratings vary a bit depending on which engine you choose, so the team at Rick Hendrick City Chevrolet has outlined everything you need to know in the guide below.


Tahoe MPG By Engine

There are three engines you can choose from on the new 2023 Chevy Tahoe. Unfortunately, the hybrid variant of this full-size SUV was phased out in 2013, so we don’t have any data on the Tahoe Hybrid MPG ratings. However, if you’re interested in a pre-owned model to maximize your fuel efficiency on the Gastonia, you should still be able to find one! Here are the performance specs and MPG ratings for the three current engines:

5.3L EcoTec3 V8 Engine

Chevy Tahoe Price & Trim Levels

2023 Chevy Tahoe Trim Levels

  • LT: MSRP from $58,300
  • RST: MSRP from $61,800

Tahoe Engine Performance

It’s clear to see that each engine and drivetrain configuration achieves fantastic Chevy Tahoe mpg numbers, but how do they perform otherwise on Rock Hill, SC-area highways? We’ve got all the horsepower and torque specs you need to make an informed decision, below:

  • 5.3L V8 – 355 hp, 383 lb-ft of torque
  • 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel – 277 hp, 460 lb-ft of torque
  • 6.2L V8 – 420 hp, 460 lb-ft of torque

What is Dynamic Fuel Management?

The Tahoe 5.3L V8 and 6.2L V8 engines come with Dynamic Fuel Management, helping you maximize fuel efficiency at every turn. How does Dynamic Fuel Management (DFM) work? The system constantly monitors your pressure on the accelerator pedal. Every time you press down on or let up on the accelerator, DFM calculates how many cylinders are needed to generate the torque level that matches the pressure on the accelerator pedal. This allows only as many engine cylinders as absolutely necessary to be used at any given moment on the road, saving fuel along the way!
