There are cars, there are trucks, there are SUVs, and then there’s the Chevrolet Suburban. Calling the Suburban just another SUV doesn’t quite capture what it brings to the table. For decades, this vehicle has set the standard for size, strength, and capability. The 2025 model carries on that legacy with more technology, comfort, and performance than ever before at Jim Butler Chevy of St. Louis.
Since 1935, the Suburban has been a go-to choice for families and businesses that need real space and serious power. Back then, it was a rugged workhorse designed to haul people, tools, and supplies. Today, it’s become the gold standard for large SUVs, just as capable of towing boats to Lake of the Ozarks as it is carrying a team of kids to soccer practice.
Bold Design, Bigger Presence
One look at the 2025 Suburban and it’s clear this SUV makes a statement. The bold new grille and updated lighting design give it a modern, commanding look. Its size isn’t something it hides; it embraces it. Driving through Missouri in a Suburban means driving with confidence, whether navigating city streets in St. Louis or wide-open highways across the state.
Space That Redefines Comfort
Step inside, and the first thing that stands out is the sheer amount of room. The Suburban doesn’t just seat passengers; it gives them space to stretch out and relax. With up to 180 cubic feet of passenger space, no one has to compromise. Second-row captain’s chairs provide easy access and comfort, while the third row offers more legroom than many vehicles’ second rows.
Cargo space is just as impressive. With over 40 cubic feet behind the third row, there’s plenty of room for luggage, sports gear, or that big Costco run. Fold down the seats, and you’re working with an expansive cargo area that rivals a pickup bed, ideal for weekend projects, camping trips, or moving the college-bound kids into their dorms.
Technology only adds to the appeal. A standard 17.7-inch infotainment display pairs with an 11-inch digital instrument cluster, creating a cabin that feels as advanced as it is comfortable. Available features like Super Cruise, General Motors’ hands-free driving system, bring next-level convenience for long highway stretches.
Powertrain Options for Every Driver
The 2025 Suburban offers three engine choices, each designed to balance strength and capability.
- A 355-horsepower 5.3-liter V8 comes standard on several trims, providing plenty of muscle for everyday driving and towing.
- The available 420-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 delivers extra performance for those who want maximum power under the hood.
- For drivers who value efficiency and torque, the 305-horsepower 3.0-liter Duramax turbo-diesel is available, offering an impressive 495 lb.-ft. of torque.
All engines pair with a smooth 10-speed automatic transmission and are offered with rear-wheel or four-wheel drive. When properly equipped, the Suburban can tow up to 8,300 pounds, more than enough for a camper, boat, or trailer.
Smooth, Confident Driving
Despite its size, the 2025 Suburban is engineered to deliver a confident, refined ride. Independent rear suspension enhances handling and stability, while available adaptive air suspension and Magnetic Ride Control take comfort to another level. Whether it’s a long family road trip across Missouri or a quick drive through town, the Suburban is built to handle it with ease.
Large wheels, ranging from standard 18-inch options to available 24-inch designs, add style and presence. And with Super Cruise, long highway drives become less tiring, thanks to advanced features that can steer, brake, and even change lanes automatically while keeping the driver’s attention on the road.
Designed for Real Life in Missouri
The Suburban isn’t for everyone, and that’s the point. It offers maximum capability and space for its users. Families with multiple kids, pets, sports gear, or outdoor toys will appreciate everything it has to offer. From hauling boats to Mark Twain Lake to packing up for a float trip on the Current River, this SUV is built for a lifestyle full of movement, adventure, and responsibility.
The design team considers everyday convenience when creating the interior. Multiple charging ports, smart storage solutions, and cupholders for everyone make long drives easier. Premium trims like High Country add luxury touches, leather seating, premium sound systems, and advanced driver-assist features, that turn long hauls into something enjoyable.
Why the Suburban Stands Out
For nearly a century, the Chevrolet Suburban has been a constant presence on American roads. The 2025 model builds on that heritage while embracing modern demands. It’s not just big for the sake of being big; it’s built to serve real needs, whether that’s family, work, or recreation.
For local drivers, that means a vehicle capable of handling just about anything the day throws at it. From morning school drop-offs to weekend adventures at Table Rock, the Suburban proves itself over and over again. It’s not just transportation—it’s a partner built for the long haul.
Final Thoughts
The 2025 Chevrolet Suburban represents the best of what a full-size SUV can be. It blends iconic design with modern innovation, offering unmatched space, powerful engine options, and advanced technology to keep drivers and passengers comfortable and connected.
For those who need an SUV that truly does it all, the Suburban continues to be the benchmark. Strong, versatile, and ready for Missouri roads, it’s the kind of vehicle that earns loyalty by delivering year after year.
