Year to Year Changes


1993 Chevrolet Tahoe: An electronically controlled automatic transmission went into '93 Blazers, and claimed to deliver smoother and more-precise shifts.
1994 Chevrolet Tahoe: A turbodiesel V8 engine option arrived in 1994. Side-door guard beams and a center high-mounted stoplamp were installed. The 2-door wagon was still the only Blazer body style.
1995 Chevrolet Tahoe: Chevrolet's version changed its name from Blazer to Tahoe, and a driver-side airbag was installed. A 4-door wagon arrived in spring 1995, available with either 2- or 4-wheel drive. The 4-door model rode a wheelbase six inches longer and measured 10.6 inches longer overall. The standard V8 dropped ten horsepower, to 210.
1996 Chevrolet Tahoe: The standard 5.7-liter V8 jumped from 200 to 250 horsepower for '96, when daytime running lights were installed. No more manual-shift Tahoes were available as all had a 4-speed automatic. A 2WD 2-door model joined the lineup, so both the 2-door and 4-door could have either 2WD or 4WD. A newly optional electronic transfer case allowed switching between 2WD and 4WD by touching dashboard buttons.
1997 Chevrolet Tahoe: A passenger-side airbag went into '97 models. Also, a new center console was included with bucket seats, and contained a fold out writing surface. The 5.7-liter V8 gained five horsepower.
1998 Chevrolet Tahoe: Tahoe's big news is a full-time 4WD system. Called Autotrac, the newly optional system allows the use of 4WD on any surface.
1999 Chevrolet Tahoe: The '99 Tahoe arrived early in 1998, but there were no changes.
2000 Chevrolet Tahoe: Chevrolet redesigned the Tahoe for 2000, with new V8 engines. However, specialty versions of the 1995-99 vintage Tahoes remained, sold alongside the all-new 2000 models. The Tahoe Limited and Z71 remained available only through part of the year. Both used the 5.7-liter, 255-horsepower V8. The Z71 featured off-road-oriented equipment, including Autotrac 4-wheel drive. The style-conscious Limited came only with rear-wheel drive and was built around police-package equipment.
