2009 Chevrolet Suburban LT2 1500 4WD Trim Overview

The 2009 Chevrolet Suburban LT2 1500 4WD's long list of standard features includes Chevy's Autotrac on-demand four-wheel-drive system, which ensures maximum stability and traction in all types of driving conditions. A 310-hp, 5.3-liter V8 engine provides power for the LT2 1500 4WD. The V8 produces 335 lb-ft of torque and features Active Fuel Management, which shuts down four of the engine's eight cylinders when they're not required to conserve fuel. The engine, which runs on regular unleaded gasoline, links to a new six-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. The StabiliTrak electronic stability control system, as well as traction control and four-wheel antilock brakes, all come standard. The rear-wheel-drive LT2 1500 4WD rides on a Premium Smooth Ride suspension and 17-inch aluminum wheels.

With such standard features as leather upholstery, tri-zone automatic climate control, and power-adjustable pedals, the LT2 1500 4WD's cabin delivers an upscale feel. An ultrasonic rear parking assist, a remote vehicle starter system, a leather-wrapped multifunction steering wheel, Bluetooth, and remote keyless entry also come standard. The AM/FM audio system includes a 6-CD changer, XM satellite radio, and an MP3 input jack. A one-year subscription to OnStar gives drivers access to turn-by-turn navigation, vehicle diagnostics, emergency services, and remote door unlock, among other features. The LT2 1500 4WD seats up to eight passengers in three rows. Both the second- and third-row bench seats split 60/40 and fold down to expand cargo space to a maximum of 137 cubic feet. Optional features include a navigation system, front bucket seats, a rear-seat DVD entertainment system, and a power sunroof. Safety features include front head-curtain side-impact and rear head airbags.
