How to interpret car specs

If it’s been a while since you perused car specs, you might be a little rusty with the terminology. That’s okay! To interpret the 2022 Chevrolet Suburban specs, read through our simple crash course on car spec terms:

Base curb weight: This hefty measurement is a

car’s gross vehicle weight rating

without cargo and a full gas tank and standard equipment only.

Dimensions: Compare the interior and exterior dimensions provided by the manufacturer with a vehicle you know really well to get a good feel for the size.

Drivetrain: Front-wheel drive is standard for most cars (and for the Suburban), but if you plan to take the car off-road or drive frequently on difficult or slippery terrain, you might prefer a vehicle with all-wheel drive.

Engine displacement

: Technically, this number is a measurement of the volume taken up by the engine cylinders. Simply put, it’s how big your SUV’s engine is.

Ground clearance: If you take your vehicle off-road, it’s important to know the distance between the lowest part of the SUV’s body and the ground to avoid obstacles.

Horsepower: One horsepower refers to the power needed to raise 550 pounds by one foot in a single second—but you can just think of it as a measurement of your engine’s power.

Torque: If horsepower is raw engine power, torque is its rotational counterpart. This measurement shows you how effective the vehicle is at spinning its wheels.

Turning diameter: This number tells you the diameter of the smallest semicircle required for the SUV to make a full U-turn.
