All seven 2027 Tahoe trims share the same body, the same 17.7-inch touchscreen, and the same starting point of Chevrolet Safety Assist standard. What separates them is engine, ride hardware, and how far up the luxury or performance ladder Chevrolet lets you climb. Prices below are starting MSRP and exclude the $2,795 destination freight charge, tax, title, license and dealer fees.

2027 Tahoe Trim Lineup at a Glance

Seven trims run LS through the new RST Performance Edition, spanning $61,200 to $84,200 in published pricing. LS is the value play, Z71 is the off-road pick, and High Country is the luxury flagship; the new RST Performance Edition adds a performance tier the lineup never had before.

Trim-by-Trim Breakdown

LS: $61,200

The LS is the volume trim and the value case for the lineup. It runs the standard 5.3L V8, the full 17.7-inch touchscreen and 11-inch driver display, Adaptive Cruise Control and HD Surround Vision, all as standard equipment, nothing about the LS's core tech feels stripped down. It is also the only Tahoe trim that can be ordered with the 9-passenger front-bench seating option, which makes it the pick for anyone counting seatbelts rather than leather grades.

LT: $64,200

The LT is the first trim where Super Cruise hands-free driving becomes available, and it adds a programmable power liftgate, leather-appointed seating surfaces, heated front bucket seats and wireless phone charging over the LS. It is also the first trim eligible for the 3.0L Duramax diesel. For a buyer choosing between towing capability and fuel range, LT is where that choice becomes available.

RST: $69,600

RST is the sport-appearance trim: a monochromatic black grille with Black Ice accents, heated and ventilated front seats, and a Jet Black interior with Victory Red accents and all-black badging. Available 24-inch machined and painted Carbon Flash Metallic wheels complete the look. Super Cruise is available here too, and so is the 6.2L V8.

Z71: $71,200

Z71 is 4WD-only and built for off-road use: 20-inch all-terrain Goodyear Wrangler Territory tires, an aluminum skid plate with red recovery hooks, black tubular assist steps, a high-approach-angle front fascia and the Autotrac two-speed active transfer case. Four-Corner Air Ride Adaptive Suspension is available, which is what actually raises ground clearance on this trim, the Z71 badge alone does not add static clearance over the other trims.

Premier: $76,100

Premier is the comfort-first luxury trim: uplevel LED headlamps and taillamps with animated lighting, a power sliding center console, heated and ventilated front-row seats with heated second-row bucket seats, an available AutoSense Power Liftgate, and a Bose Centerpoint Surround Sound 10-speaker system. Super Cruise is available.

High Country: $84,200

High Country is the flagship, and the only trim where the 6.2L V8 comes standard rather than optional. It adds Magnetic Ride Control with available Four-Corner Air Ride Adaptive Suspension, a unique signature grille, sill plates, interior stitching and real wood décor, available 24-inch wheels, a Rear Camera Mirror and a 15-inch diagonal Head-Up Display. Super Cruise is available here as well.

RST Performance Edition: new for 2027

The RST Performance Edition is a genuinely new addition, not a repackaged RST. It runs a tuned 6.2L V8 rated 433 horsepower and 467 lb-ft of torque, the highest output in the lineup, paired with the 10-speed automatic, Chevrolet Performance induction and exhaust systems, and Brembo heavy-duty front brakes for stopping power to match. Four-Corner Air Ride Adaptive Suspension is available. Pricing was not published on Chevrolet's trim-selection tool at the time this page was built; confirm current pricing with the store.

Common Tahoe Trim Comparisons

LS vs LT

The $3,000 step from LS to LT buys Super Cruise availability, leather-appointed seats, a programmable power liftgate and diesel eligibility. It is the single most valuable step in the lineup for a buyer who is not fixed on the LS's 9-passenger bench.

RST vs Z71

Both start close in price, but the choice is about surface, not status: Z71 is built for gravel, boat ramps and off-road trailheads with its skid plate and all-terrain tires; RST is the street-styled sport trim with 24-inch wheel options and no off-road hardware.

Premier vs High Country

Premier gets most of the luxury feature set for $8,100 less. High Country adds the standard 6.2L V8, real wood interior trim and the 15-inch Head-Up Display, the difference is cabin materials and standard horsepower, not core comfort features.
