Question Next Gen Fullsize GM SUVs?

Now that we've seen the trucks, any word on when we will see the next Suburban, Tahoe, Yukon, & maybe even Escalade?

Re: Next Gen Fullsize GM SUVs?

I found this snippet attached to one of the articles about today's unveil...

The full-size pickups, codenamed K2XX, will also be the basis for GM’s best-selling full-size SUVs, the Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. Those models go on sale later.
No indication on how long "later" actually is.

Maybe by the NYC auto show in April.

Rumor is the next Escalade will be the last to come out. You won't be able to buy one until 2014 so it will probably debut as a 2015.

If the new pickups are any indication, it isn't hard to imagine what the next SUVs will look like. Just go to the dealer and look at the '13's.

Then add HID and LED to the headlights.

Re: Next Gen Fullsize GM SUVs?

The Tahoe looks way better than a the Silverado, old or new. I hope GM doesn't screw this up. If I were in the market for a new truck I would get a 2013 Avalanche over any of the other traditional pickups on the market. Its a shame that the Avalanche isn't continuing on with the next generation.

I like the current Suburban & Taboe, but the Yukon looks too soft for me, especially compared to the Sierra.
