Design

The Suburban was designed to be quiet, with a new shape that reduces wind noise, special body mounts to reduce vibrations, and a power ventilation system for comfortable driving with the windows up. It also has four side doors for easier entry and exit and a more accessible loadspace.

Body style

The Suburban is a half-ton truck with a station wagon body on a small truck chassis. It has a wagon-type tailgate with a manually retractable window and is available as a six-door wagon with double rear doors.

Engine

The Suburban has a 5.7 V8 engine with 157 horsepower. Other engine options include a 262 cu in (4.3 L) V6 and a 292 cu in (4.8 L) I6.

Other features

The Suburban has a 30-gallon fuel tank, heavy-duty shock absorbers, and a roof-mounted luggage rack and cover. It also comes with stainless steel wheel covers, and white sidewall and whitewall tires are available in various sizes and load capacities
