Chevrolet has announced a police patrol vehicle (PPV) version of the all-new Chevrolet Tahoe, which offers more power, greater efficiency and enhanced features developed for law enforcement.
The 2015 Tahoe PPV features an all-new interior, exterior and EcoTec3 powertrain, while offering the same basic dimensions, sturdy body-on-frame architecture and versatility that made it the best-selling Chevrolet police vehicle for the last several years.
The 2015 Tahoe PPV will be powered by the standard EcoTec3 5.3L V-8 engine producing 335 hp and 383 lb-ft of torque with improved acceleration. It features direct injection, cylinder deactivation, continuously variable valve timing and an advanced combustion system. The engine is mated to a Hydra-Matic 6L80 six-speed automatic transmission with a unique police-service calibration that supports pursuit performance.
The Tahoe PPV’s versatility and low lifecycle cost have made it a leader among police agencies. The enhancements to the 2015 model have further refined an already great vehicle to give police officers the performance, speed and safety they need.
