Adam Rodriguez, Executive Director, Product Management – Advanced Driver Assistance Systems
Sure, you can caravan with your friends across the Bay Bridge….but imagine doing it with your hands off the steering wheel.
General Motors made history recently, driving all 20 of our Super Cruise-enabled models in a record-breaking hands-free caravan across the Bay Bridge linking San Francisco and Oakland, the largest of its kind in history.
GM initially launched Super Cruise in 2017 as the industry’s first true hands-free advanced driver assistance system. It’s now available on 20 vehicles – the widest selection in the market – while our closest competitors offer nine or fewer hands-free models. Plus, GM’s Super Cruise is the only technology that provides hands-free towing capabilities.
With vehicles across various price points, GM is expanding access to our hands-free technology, bringing the comfort and convenience of Super Cruise to even more customers.
Included in the caravan are:
- Chevrolet Blazer EV
- Chevrolet Equinox EV
- Chevrolet Silverado
- Chevrolet Silverado EV
- Chevrolet Suburban
- Chevrolet Tahoe
- Chevrolet Traverse
- Buick Enclave
- Cadillac CT4
- Cadillac CT5
- Cadillac Escalade
- Cadillac LYRIQ
- Cadillac OPTIQ
- GMC Acadia
- GMC HUMMER EV SUV
- GMC HUMMER EV Pickup
- GMC Sierra
- GMC Sierra EV
- GMC Yukon
- GMC Yukon XL
Additionally, customer choice in how they go hands-free will continue to grow in 2025 and beyond, with Super Cruise available on upcoming models including the Cadillac VISTIQ, Cadillac Escalade IQ, and more yet to be announced.
GM Defense completes first production vehicle for the State Department’s Diplomatic Security Service
GM Defense has completed production of the first vehicles in support of the Diplomatic Security Service’s Heavy-Duty armored Sport Utility Vehicle (HD SUV) program. DSS is the law enforcement and security arm of the U.S. Department of State.
GM marked the milestone event with Assistant Secretary of State for Diplomatic Security Gentry Smith and other key stakeholders at GM Defense’s Concord, North Carolina-based Manufacturing and Customer Innovation Center.
GM Defense’s HD SUV solution, the Suburban Shield, features a new design with a unique body-on-frame chassis and suspension to support increased vehicle weight and performance requirements. The vehicle includes a high percentage of proven commercial-off-the-shelf parts from General Motors’ global supply chain, including the body, exterior, propulsion, interior, and brakes, for added reliability.

“Our Suburban Shield significantly enhances the quality, performance, and safety that is essential to the Diplomatic Security Service and provides our nation’s senior diplomats and their supporting teams a vehicle that enables their important mission for diplomacy and national security,” said Steve duMont, GM Defense president.
“I had the opportunity to try out the prototype,” Smith said. “It had good acceleration, handled better in the turns and the heavy-duty anti-lock braking system was far superior to our aftermarket vehicles. You could really feel the stability and performance in the redesigned chassis. The new HD SUV represents a new cost-effective era in the design and building of these badly needed vehicles to help us carry out our mission to ensure the safe and secure conduct of foreign policy in some of our most challenging and dangerous posts.”
GM Defense uses advanced manufacturing tools and techniques to ensure the highest level of quality and to realize cost efficiencies and flexibility, while helping the production team stay on schedule.
GM Defense won the contract to support DSS’ next generation HD SUV last year. The program is intended to support DSS, in addition to more than a dozen other federal agencies.

Chevrolet BrightDrop 400 electric vans are hitting the road in major U.S. markets this year to support Walmart’s InHome delivery service.
The addition of BrightDrop vans to the Walmart last-mile fleet will support growth of the retailer’s InHome delivery service, help reduce carbon emissions, and provide drivers with safe, efficient, and comfortable vehicles.
Walmart InHome associates, who are trained to deliver groceries directly into customers’ homes, participated in a pilot with GM to assess the overall performance of the BrightDrop 400 in live operation scenarios, including city driving and customer deliveries.
Associates were impressed with BrightDrop’s 360-degree HD Surround Vision camera and blind-zone steering assist, battery range and reliability, and maneuverability. Here are some key takeaways they shared from the pilot:
- The vans easily navigated congested roads and dense neighborhoods.
- Automation features such as auto-closing doors boosted efficiency and improved the associate experience.
- The low-step ergonomic design allowed easy entrance and exit of the vehicles, allowing for swift and efficient last-mile deliveries.
“Our BrightDrop vans are purpose-built to get the job done safely and efficiently while helping businesses like Walmart decarbonize their fleet,” said Sandor Piszar, vice president, GM Envolve. “The pilot program demonstrates that at the forefront of our design are the hard-working drivers that deliver goods and services to customers every day.”
Walmart, which today announced the expansion of its InHome delivery program to 62 million households nationwide, will roll out the BrightDrop 400 vans in Austin, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, northwest Arkansas, Orlando, and the San Francisco Bay area by the end of the year.
“With a focus on being people-led and tech-powered, we’re always looking for ways to enhance the associate experience and provide the best possible service to our customers. That’s why we’re so excited about the addition of the BrightDrop 400 to our InHome delivery fleet,” said Warren Moore, vice president, Dedicated Delivery, Walmart U.S. “During the pilot, we listened closely to our InHome associates’ feedback and were impressed by the vans’ performance in real-world scenarios.”
BrightDrop electric vans, produced at the CAMI Assembly plant, are equipped with advanced safety features to help ensure driver alertness and safety, low step-in height to ease driver ingress and egress and large infotainment screens for a tech-enabled driving experience.

The 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 is now the fastest car ever built by an American auto manufacturer.
At a test track in Germany, General Motors President Mark Reuss drove a 2025 Corvette ZR1 233 mph, setting a top speed record unrivalled by any current production car priced under $1 million.
The Corvette team set this two-way average speed on the northbound and southbound straightaways of the High-Speed Oval Track at ATP Automotive Testing Papenburg, in a recent test in Papenburg, Germany.
“Setting the top-speed record in the Corvette ZR1 is a true triumph for Corvette and for Chevrolet, and also an exhilarating, surreal experience for me personally,” said Reuss. “With the current generation’s switch to mid-engine, we knew the outstanding performance and balance made this a real possibility. To go over there and get it done is a testament to the power of ZR1, and to the incredibly talented team that developed and built it.”
The ZR1 features the most powerful V8 engine ever produced in America by an auto manufacturer. Corvette shifted to mid-engine architecture in 2020, unlocking new levels of performance and innovation.
Chevrolet engineers leveraged GM’s deep software, modeling, and hardware development knowledge to set a new speed benchmark for American automakers.
Facts about Corvette ZR1’s record-setting run:
- The ZR1 coupe which set the record had a standard chassis and aero package, with a standard spoiler with short wicker, carbon fiber ground effects, Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires and aluminum wheels.
- Chevrolet engineers developed Top Speed Mode, exclusively for closed course use, which adjusts chassis control systems for maximum speed.
- The ZR1 reached 233 mph with the engine at redline in sixth gear.
- During testing, including Reuss’s record run, an engineer was in the passenger seat analyzing data in real-time.
- The 233-mph run was not a one-off performance. Five engineers and both ZR1 development cars onsite exceeded 230 mph across multiple runs.
- Papenburg provided optimal conditions, such as temperature and air density, for a high-speed test. Chevrolet engineers have previously set top speeds for the sixth and seventh generation Corvette ZR1, and the sixth generation Camaro ZL1 at this facility.
- The ZR1 is the fastest car GM has ever produced.

The 2025 Corvette ZR1 has the following features:
- A 5.5L, twin-turbocharged LT7 DOHC flat-plane crank V8 engine
- 1,064 horsepower at 7,000 rpm and 828 lb-ft of torque at 6,000 rpm, per SAE guidelines — the most power ever from a factory Corvette and the most powerful V8 ever produced in America from an auto manufacturer
- A GM-estimated sub-10-second quarter mile time1
- Purposeful carbon fiber aero package creating over 1,200 pounds of downforce at top speed
- A revival of one of the most iconic styles in Corvette history: the split rear window

1On a closed course. Based on initial vehicle movement.
The 2025 Chevrolet Silverado EV launches later this year in three distinct trims with more range, content, and price options for retail and commercial customers.
- Range: With 492 miles, the 2025 Silverado EV with Max Range sets the new standard as the range leader for electric trucks.
- Trims: The Silverado EV offers new technology, range, and design packages across Work Truck (WT), LT and RST trims.
- Price: Starting MSRP as low as $57,095. Select retail models may qualify for the full $7,500 federal tax credit for eligible customers.
“Truck customers tell us range is one of the main barriers to considering an EV. The 2024 Silverado EV already was the range leader, and for this new model year we’ve set the bar even higher,” said Scott Bell, vice president, Chevrolet. “A second barrier to entry is price, so we are fortifying the Silverado EV lineup by providing more choice. For 2025, we’re introducing an LT trim, offering a more affordable RST package and expanding WT offerings. This increased capability and accessibility is great news for the segment, the industry, and the brand.”

Industry’s best-selling full-size SUVs bring improvements on design, engineering and technology
- Fresh exterior and interior designs, including new signature lighting and a larger best-in-class 17.7-inch-diagonal infotainment screen
- More powerful diesel engine, which was previously introduced on Silverado
- New confidence-inspiring trailering technology and ride-and-handling refinements
- Editor’s note: August 2024: Release updated with final content.
Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban — the industry’s best-selling large SUVs — launch late next year with fresh designs inside and out, a more powerful diesel engine option available later in production and new technology enhancements designed to provide greater confidence and security behind the wheel.
“The updates on the 2025 Chevy Tahoe and Suburban make the industry’s best-selling full-size SUVs an ever-stronger option for our customers,” said Scott Bell, vice president, Chevrolet. “Our segment-leading position is the envy of our competitors — no one comes close to Chevrolet.”
Together Tahoe and Suburban have led the segment for over 45 years and established themselves as cultural icons. Chevrolet’s full-size SUVs are truly designed and engineered for its customers. The new 2025 Tahoe and Suburban are no exception; key highlights and features include:
- Freshened exterior design with bolder signature lighting and all-new lighting animations, new available 24-inch wheels and more
- New interior design centered on an all-new best-in-segment 17.7-inch-diagonal central touchscreen1, along with an enhanced High Country interior and additional refinements across the lineup
- New, available second-generation 3.0L turbo-diesel Duramax engine with 10 percent more horsepower than current models, which will be available later in production
- Ride and handling enhancements engineered for greater driving refinement
More curb appeal
The 2025 Tahoe and Suburban feature a new look, framed by a fresh front-end design that’s distinguished with new, bolder lighting. All six trims — LS, LT, RST, Z71, Premier and High Country — receive a new front fascia, with select trims offering unique design cues. The Z71 — one of the nameplates’ fastest-selling trims — incorporates skid plates and a high-approach front fascia, while the High Country leans in on a sport-luxury theme, with a sophisticated balance of black and Galvano chrome trim.
“The new faces of Tahoe and Suburban are more expressive, borrowing inspiration from the recently refreshed Chevrolet truck lineup,” said Phil Zak, executive design director, Global Chevrolet. “They remain as versatile as ever, but with a greater emphasis on the details that have driven these large SUVs to the top of their segment.”
Additional refinements contribute to a stronger, more planted stance that appears more confident, while new 24-inch wheel designs, available for the first time on RST and High Country, further contribute to the Tahoe and Suburban’s fresh style.
New front and rear lighting also elevate the SUVs’ sophisticated design, with innovative technology delivered in a more refined package. Highlights include:
- More integrated appearance of the daytime running lights (DRLs), with a thinner yet more prominent look of the top DRL, thanks to an angled prism within the lighting signature that creates bold illumination in a sleek housing
- The more prominent lighting signature gives the vehicles a greater sense of personality, with the Premier and High Country trims further distinguished with standard welcome and walk-away lighting animations as well as animated swipe turn signals
- Dual C-shaped light designs maintain the family appearance seen in other Chevrolet vehicles
Along with their new look and lighting, the 2025 Tahoe and Suburban also introduce two new exterior colors: Cypress Gray and Lakeshore Blue Metallic.
Revamped, tech-focused interior
The new Tahoe and Suburban feel airier and more spacious, with a revamped interior that emulates the technology focus of other recently introduced Chevrolet models. Sweeping lines and lowering the instrument panel increase the perceived space for driver and front row passenger.
Display screens are the centerpiece of the cabin, starting with an all-new standard 17.7-inch-diagonal freeform infotainment1 screen paired with the 11-inch-diagonal driver information center.
The screen is canted slightly toward the driver for a more commanding feeling of control, while still prioritizing easy access for the front-seat passenger. Designed to be intuitive without sacrificing a clean, sleek design, the team struck the careful balance of physical and digital controls in the cockpit.
Additional interior highlights include:
- Redesigned center console with new storage options and a repositioned, more convenient wireless charging4 pad
- New steering wheel design
- Unique interior with Victory Red stitching on RST and all-new Jet Black/Sky Cool Gray interior on Premier
- More sophisticated décor across the lineup, including Piano Black and Galvano chrome, as well as more soft-touch and wrapped materials on select trims
- Upgraded and more refined High Country interior, with authentic wood décor — a first for Tahoe and Suburban — along with wingtip perforated leather seating surfaces, a unique steering wheel, “High Country” identification and a unique Jet Black/Mocha color combination
More powerful diesel engine
Also new is the refined, second-generation 3.0L inline-six turbo-diesel Duramax2, which offers more power for greater confidence on the road — particularly when trailering. It is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission and is offered on all retail trims, including Z71 for the first time.
Launched previously on the Silverado 1500, the new diesel engine is rated at 305 horsepower and 495 lb-ft of peak torque, increases of 10 percent and 7.6 percent, respectively, over the current diesel engine’s 277 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque.
A retuned turbo compressor, along with new, higher-flow fuel injectors, revised piston-cooling oil jets, new steel pistons and improved temperature control features with the cooling system’s Active Thermal Management contribute to the engine’s enhanced power, while new sound absorption materials and a tuned air induction system help balance its performance with quietness and improved refinement.
A 5.3L gas V-8 remains the standard engine for LS, LT, RST, Z71 and Premier. The 6.2L V-8 is standard on High Country and available on RST, Z71 and Premier. The new diesel engine will be available in 2025 after initial launch.
Ride-and-handling refinements
The multilink independent rear suspension design introduced on the current Tahoe and Suburban has been updated to provide more refined ride-and-handling dynamics. Additional steering calibration improvements offer a confident drive experience across conditions.
“The already excellent ride-and-handling characteristics enabled by the independent rear suspension are taken to the next level with the 2025 Tahoe and Suburban,” said Martin Hayes, chief engineer. “Their responsiveness makes them feel much nimbler than their full-size dimensions suggest.”
Additionally, Air Ride Adaptive Suspension and Magnetic Ride Control return as available features.
The Air Ride Adaptive Suspension is available on High Country and Z71, along with RST for the first time. It offers automatic load-leveling and ride-height adjustment. In highway driving, it automatically lowers the ride height to help reduce aerodynamic drag, which can help enhance efficiency. Driver-selectable heights can reduce entry/exit heights when the vehicle is parked and the driver can also raise the body for additional ground clearance when driving off-road.
With Magnetic Ride Control, which is standard on Premier and High Country and available on RST and Z71, sensors continually “read” the road 1,000 times a second to alter the damping rate of the shocks almost instantly. It is one of the fastest-reacting damping systems in the industry and helps reduce pitch, body roll and vibrations that can resonate in a large SUV.
Tow with confidence
Towing is important for Tahoe and Suburban customers. Whether it’s a driver’s first time towing or they are a seasoned driver who tows frequently, Chevrolet’s suite of trailering technology upgrades boost confidence behind the wheel.
Tahoe and Suburban will continue to include the trailering technologies customers know and love. A Max Trailering packageis available and on select trims includes a high-capacity radiator and cooling fan, an integrated trailer brake controller, Hitch View 5, Hill Decent Control 5, Blind Zone Steering Assist with Trailering 5, and the Chevrolet Trailering App. Tahoe and Suburban will also introduce the following new and enhanced features:
- Trailer Tire Health, which helps prevent trailer tire blowouts with a trailer tire life monitor and over-speed warning
- Mobile Trailering App Load Rating Info, which offers anytime/anywhere access to the vehicle’s load rating
- Forward Path Indication, which helps drivers navigate with their trailer with guidelines on the Surround View to indicate the width of the trailer and the trailer’s path. When the turn signal is activated, guidelines will show the driver the estimated turning path for both the vehicle and trailer
- Boat Ramp Assist, which helps customers access a checklist and step-by-step instructions to prepare for towing, launching, and retrieving a boat, is newly available within the trailering app
- Trailer Navigation, which calculates routes based on trailer size using built-in Google Maps
The 2025 Tahoe continues to offer max towing range of 8,400 lbs6 and Suburban offers 8,200 lbs6.
Enhanced safety and technology
Tahoe and Suburban will continue to offer standard Chevy Safety Assist5 — a suite of safety features and driver assistance technologies that include: Enhanced Automatic Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Alert, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking, and IntelliBeam. Additional standard safety features include Enhanced Automatic Parking Assist, HD Surround Vision, Teen Driver and Buckle to Drive.
Additional safety and driver convenience technology highlights include:
- Super Cruise9: The industry’s first true hands-free driving driver assistance technology will be available in 2025 after initial launch. Super Cruise is available on more than 400,000 miles of roads in the U.S. and Canada.
- AutoSense Power Liftgate: This feature makes loading a Tahoe or Suburban easier when the user’s arms are full by automatically opening the liftgate when it senses the key fob behind the vehicle.
The 2025 Tahoe and Suburban are connected by OnStar to elevate the in-vehicle experience with a variety of available safety, entertainment and convenience features, including Super Cruise functionality, 24/7 access to live OnStar advisors, on-demand vehicle diagnostics, HD streaming, and more.
Built exclusively by GM’s Arlington Assembly Team
Production will take place at GM’s Arlington Assembly plant, in Texas10 — a facility celebrating 70 years of production in 2024. Announced earlier this year, GM is investing more than $500 million in the Texas facility to strengthen its industry-leading full-size SUV business. Through this more than half-a-billion-dollar investment, Arlington Assembly will receive new tooling and equipment in its stamping, body shop and general assembly areas. GM has announced nearly $2 billion in investments for Arlington Assembly since 2013.
The all-new 2025 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban go on sale late next year. Additional details, including pricing, will be announced closer to the start of production. More information is available at www.chevrolet.com.
