Hardly. The Tahoe looks like a Tonka toy.
It looks great... until you hit the A-pillars.
Hey, GM.... flush side glass? Ever heard of it? It was invented, erm, over two decades ago. The doors, especially the rear ones, are tiny in proportion to the vehicle's overall size. The Suburban looks much better because it's so much better proportioned. The Tahoe looks exactly like what the original GMT400 model was: a Suburban that looked as though it were squeezed by King Kong from both ends.
The body is boxy, square, and lego-like; no more modern than my Mom's old Volvo 850 T5 Wagon. The Suburban and Avalanche work much, much better.
It's not that the Tahoe is unattractive, not by any means... it just looks more 1999 than 2009. It doesn't look any more
modern than the GMT800s, just
different.
The fact that GM chose to just redraw body lines of a twenty-year-old design, rather than create an entirely new family of SUVs shows the company's ill-ability to produce well-designed products.
