Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Chevrolet Tahoe than in the Toyota Highlander. The Chevrolet Tahoe will be popular with taller drivers and passengers in the front seat, due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Toyota Highlander.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Chevrolet Tahoe as you will with the Toyota Highlander, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Chevrolet Tahoe will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Toyota Highlander, which has a much lower MSRP.

The Chevrolet Tahoe has a larger turning radius than the Toyota Highlander, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance

Powertrain
With somewhat higher torque, the Chevrolet Tahoe transmits power to its wheels a bit more effectively than the Toyota Highlander.

Utility
