The Chevrolet Tahoe RST is a special edition model of the Chevrolet Tahoe. ‘RST’ in the SUV’s name stands for ‘Rally Sport Truck’. Inspired by aftermarket modifications, RST offers a street performance look and the option of increased performance in the Tahoe. Visual changes for a sportier styling include body-colour grille surround and door handles; gloss-black grille and mirror caps; black roof rails, window trim, badging and Chevrolet bowties. The Tahoe RST has exclusive 22-inch wheels wrapped in P285/45R 22 tyres from Bridgestone.

The Chevrolet Tahoe RST employs the Chevrolet Camaro SS and Chevrolet Corvette Stingray’s L86 6.2-litre V8 engine. Producing 420 hp and 624 Nm of torque, this engine is linked to the Hydra-Matic 10L80 10-speed automatic transmission. The all-new transmission is the same unit that debuted on the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 earlier this year. Chevrolet estimates a towing capacity of 8,400 pounds and a 0-60 mph (0-100 km/h) acceleration figure of under 6 seconds.

Available upgrades include a Borla performance exhaust system that offers a 28% improvement in exhaust flow, resulting in a 7-10 hp gain. There's also an optional brake package, featuring massive front red Brembo six-piston, fixed aluminium calipers with brake pads clamping on 410 x 32 mm Duralife rotors coupled with a 84% increase in rake pad area and a 42% increase in rotor area for increased system thermal capacity.
