General Motors was patiently waiting for the press days of the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show to drop the curtains on is redesign crop of big SUVs from the Chevrolet and GMC brands.
The full size SUVs are the 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe and its longer Suburban sibling, and the 2015 GMC Yukon, Yukon Denali and Yukon XL, all of which share common bodies, mechanical and platform components, between themselves and their pickup truck counterparts, the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
