Comparison Review

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 4Runner, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Chevrolet Tahoe is much wider than the Toyota 4Runner, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. If you go with the Chevrolet Tahoe, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Toyota 4Runner.

Handling
The Chevrolet Tahoe has the same turning radius as the Toyota 4Runner, so they both maneuver the same in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When considering towing capacity, the Chevrolet Tahoe is clearly the choice over the Toyota 4Runner for pulling heavy loads. The Chevrolet Tahoe has a little more horsepower than the Toyota 4Runner.

Powertrain
With somewhat higher torque, the Chevrolet Tahoe transmits power to its wheels a bit more effectively than the Toyota 4Runner.

Utility
The Chevrolet Tahoe offers greater seating capacity than the Toyota 4Runner, making it a better choice for those who find themselves chauffeuring others around.
