The 2019 Chevrolet Suburban RST: A Full-Size SUV That Won't Go Unnoticed

The harsh competition within the SUV’s market forces each manufacturer to give its best shot in order to survive in this ferocious industry. Chevrolet, an American manufacturer too often ignored by consumers focused on well-established Japanese brands, offers a full-size SUV that has everything to dominate its sector: the 2019 Chevrolet Suburban RST. We could not recommend you enough to go see this North American wonder in person at Christin Chevrolet, your Chevrolet car dealer of Montreal, near Laval and Repentigny.

The Suburban in RST Mode

Crossovers and other urban SUVs are certainly nice and handy for some, but if we go back to what drivers of this type of vehicles are looking for, it looks a lot like the 2019 Chevrolet Suburban. This rectangular, high and resolutely massive vehicle can comfortably accommodate up to 9 passengers. Since most safety, driver assistance and infotainment features are now industry standard, let's focus on what the 2019 Chevrolet Suburban brings to the table. It is especially the addition of the RST (Rally Street Truck) package that makes the 2019 edition of this model so remarkable. This option includes a body-color grille surround and body-color door handles, a gloss-black grille, gloss-black mirror caps, black roof rails, a black window trim and a black nameplate badging. This version of the model also comes with Bridgestone P285/45R/22 tires mounted on 22-inch wheels. It’s safe to say that you won’t go unnoticed driving this beautiful beast!

A Solid Improvement on the Performance Side

The RST Performance package is another great option available to consumers. They can now trade the 5.3-liter V8 engine and its 355 HP power that were the only option available for a 6.2-liter V8 engine capable of generating 420 HP! You will feel the difference on the gas pedal under your foot, that's for sure. Furthermore, this new powertrain torque ratio has also been significantly improved from a decent 383 lb/ft to a more than satisfying 420 lb/ft. This new engine also has a direct injection system with active fuel management and continuously variable timing. We should also mention the new 10-speed Hydra-Matic 10L80 automatic transmission (instead of 6) and the Magnetic Ride Control with performance calibration so you can have a full picture: the 2019 Chevrolet Suburban RST Performance Edition provides a clear improvement compared to previous models.
