Chevrolet prepared two factory special versions of Tahoe: the SUV was turned into a police interceptor, prepared to prosecute criminals, and a tractor capable of transporting trailers weighing up to 3.7 tons. Both modifications will appear on US roads this year.
–
The police interceptor, aka Tahoe Police Pursuit Vehicle (PPV), received a modified suspension, new shock absorbers and Brembo brakes with 406 mm discs.
–
Such an SUV differs from the standard model in reduced ground clearance, due to which it is more stable during high-speed maneuvering.
–
In addition, the police officer Tahoe received special Firestone Firehawk Pursuit tires, which allowed to significantly reduce the braking distance. The Tahoe tractor, in turn, was equipped with a trailer hitch and prepared for the installation of police special equipment.
–
Both factory special versions are equipped with a 5.3-liter V8 engine with a capacity of 360 horsepower paired with a ten-band automatic transmission. For Tahoe PPV, rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive is provided, and for the tractor only four-wheel drive.
