while the rollover resistance rating
estimates the risk of rolling over in a
single vehicle crash.

Summary:

GM gives full-size shoppers another choice
By Tony Swan, NewCarTestDrive.com
With its new interior, the Tahoe/Yukon closes a lot of ground on the Bronco. Where the Tahoe/Yukon moves into a clear lead is with the availability of a 4-door model, providing an alternative no one else offers.The challenge GM faces is meeting demand. The 4-door Tahoe/Yukon will share factory space in Janesville, Wisconsin, with the workhorse Suburban. Although GM is shifting some truck production out of Janesville to make room for the new work, it's fair to note that Suburban production has consistently lagged far behind demand and that recent GM new-product startups have been slow. So if the full-size 4-door concept appeals to you, you'll probably have to wait. But we think you'll find it worthwhile. |
|
Overview:
|
For years we knew this line of full-size sport/utility vehicles as the Blazer family - big, rugged 2-doors that were equally at home on boulevards or in the boonies. Those capabilities are pretty much the same but there have been a couple of significant changes for 1995. Foremost in this category is the addition of a 4-door model, giving this line - along with its Yukon counterpart from GMC Truck - a dimension its primary competitor, the Ford Bronco, doesn't have. Yet. The other change is the name. Most of the sales action in the sport/utility market is in the compact segment now. Accordingly, Chevy's compact sport/ute, formerly known as the S-Blazer, is now the Blazer. The full-size entry, called the K-Blazer last year, is now the Tahoe.
