Should I buy a used Chevrolet Tahoe now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

• Price trend: The 2025 model is at −14.4% versus a year ago, and the 2024 model is at −14.57%.
• Deal availability: The 2025 model has 37.1% good and great deals, and the 2024 model has 37.4%.
• Sweet-spot year: The 2022 model has the most listings at a current average price of $43,277. The Chevrolet Tahoe offers a roomy cabin, strong towing ability, and a versatile full-size SUV character that works well for families and long trips.

Consider waiting if:

• Powertrain/efficiency: The 2025 Tahoe offers a 5.3-liter V8 with 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, a 6.2-liter V8 with 420 hp and 460 lb-ft of torque, and a 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder diesel with 305 hp, 495 lb-ft of torque, and up to 27 mpg on the highway.

• Safety: The latest Tahoe adds automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist with lane-departure warning, pedestrian and bicycle braking, automatic parking assist, a surround-view camera, and a teen driver monitoring system.
• Starting price: The LS trim starts at $60,495.

If you're buying used today, the 2022 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.
