The brawny exteriors are emphasized by Chevy family grille flanked by brick-cular and swept back projector headlamps, a sleek foglamp enclosure could be noticed on the front. The sides get understated wheel arches, large windows and kinked-out C-pillar that finishes into the wrap-around rear windscreen. The rear too is as boxy as the whole car and carries wrap around LED taillamp cluster, chrome garnish and a sleek lower bumper-respective to the SUVs size.

Thanks to the huge dimensions, the interiors will be spacious and will be getting generous amount of space for every passenger, even for the third-row seats.

Speaking of the motor, it would be getting a 2.8 litre DURAMAX-latest from the American. This engine would produce 200 bhp of power and a humongous 500Nm of torque, this equals to a great pickup from standstill traffic conditions. These figures are channelled to the rear wheels via a 6-Speed automatic. Since, there will be only one variant available, there won’t be any 4X4 or manual transmission option.
