2009 Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid

What a ride! Everything about the Chevy Tahoe hybrid was a joy to experience.

The MSRP for this spacious hybrid SUV is between $36,680 and $40,740, depending on whether you select the two-wheel drive or four-wheel drive option. It has a six-speed automatic transmission available, which is electronically controlled with overdrive and has a tow/haul mode.

Even though this 2009 Chevrolet Tahoe is a hybrid SUV, you won't get the big boost in miles per gallon that you would by purchasing a small hybrid sedan that weighs less. However, you will get a hundred percent of the robust performance, quiet ride, precise handling, and the abilty to tow your boat or trailer (using the tow/haul mode).

We were impressed by the tremendous quality built into this impressive hybrid SUV by the employees at the Tahoe's Arlington, Texas assembly plant.

GM is standing behind this quality. Make sure you note GM's new campaign, starting Sunday, September 13th, in which GM's new chairman Ed Whitacre Jr. offers you a money-back guarantee if you're not completely satisfied with your purchase of a Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, or GMC vehicle purchased between Monday, September 14th and Monday, November 30th. This is the first time in years that an auto maker has offered to let you out of a purchase agreement based only upon your lack of satisfaction with their car.

You can order Chevrolet Tahoe hybrids with a powerful 4.8 liter V-8 engine, or take advantage of larger options, such as the 5.3 liter V-8 engine that runs on SFI FlexFuel and comes with "Active Fuel Management." A huge 6.2 liter V-8 is also available.

The EPA has set the maximum fuel economy for the two-wheel drive version at 14 MPG city and 20 MPG highway. If you want the four-wheel drive version with the 5.3 liter V8, your MPG will be 14 in the city and 19 on the highway.

We look forward to bringing our review of the 2010 Tahoe Hybrid to you soon.
