The 2024 Chevy Tahoe is a great family vehicle because of its size and advanced safety features. We’re exploring seven safety functions you can find in this full-size SUV.
7 Safety Features in the 2024 Chevy Tahoe
1. Front Pedestrian Braking
When driving at speeds between 5 and 50 mph, Front Pedestrian Braking can detect pedestrians or bicyclists that enter your vehicle’s path. This feature issues an audio alert for you to apply the brakes and activates emergency braking if you fail to do so. Front Pedestrian Braking is part of the Chevy Safety Assist package.
2. Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning
Another function in the Chevy Safety Assist package is Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning. This feature helps you stay in your designated lane by using a gentle turn of the steering wheel when it detects you unintentionally veering away from the center. This function does not activate when your turn signal is on to indicate an intentional lane change.
3. Teen Driver
If the Chevy Tahoe is your teen’s first vehicle, you’ll appreciate the Teen Driver safety feature. Teen Driver monitors your child’s driving habits and provides a detailed in-vehicle report card. This feedback alerts parents to dangerous patterns and helps encourage safer driving practices.
4. Hill Start Assist
When stopped on an incline, Hill Start Assist keeps your brakes engaged as you transition from the brake to the gas, preventing your Tahoe from rolling backward. This automatically releases when you press down on the accelerator.
5. Buckle to Drive
Buckle to Drive prevents you from driving without your seatbelt fastened by blocking you from switching the Tahoe out of PARK until all front occupants are buckled in. Buckle to Drive times out after twenty seconds and can be turned off in your Tahoe’s settings. in the Teen Driver feature, this function prevents your child from turning the radio on until their seatbelt is buckled.
6. Following Distance Indicator
Following Distance Indicator helps you maintain a safe distance between your Tahoe and the vehicle in front of you, preventing rear-end collisions. This feature displays the distance between the two vehicles in seconds, alerting you if that distance begins to rapidly close. Following Distance Indicator is another function found in the Chevy Safety Assist package.
7. StabiliTrak
The StabiliTrak electronic stability control system maintains your Tahoe’s stability during emergency maneuvers by automatically adjusting the engine torque and brakes. It also reduces engine power and applies brake pressure to maintain your traction when driving on wet or icy routes.
