Chevy Suburban’s Hollywood Star Makes Texas Its Home
In 2019, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce gave the Chevy Suburban the Award of Excellence star — making it the first-ever vehicle to receive this coveted award. The Suburban has now brought this award to Arlington, Texas, celebrating the place where this movie star is assembled.
The Award of Excellence star is located between the football stadium and ballpark in Arlington’s Entertainment District. It is the first award of its kind to remain in Texas permanently and is now open to the public. Arlington Mayor Jeff Williams took part in the unveiling of the star’s location and also announced that June 21, the day of the unveiling, is officially “Suburban Day.”
The Suburban received the star after making an appearance in over 1,750 TV series and films. Its long career on the screen first began in 1952, and it has been in at least one TV show each year since 1956. The large SUV even landed roles in more than 30 award-nominated films.
Not only is it the longest working actor in Hollywood, but the Suburban is also the longest-running nameplate, having made its debut back in 1935. The Arlington Assembly Plan started producing the model in 1999, and the model has since been extremely popular in Texas, with almost 200,000 Suburban vehicles on Texas roads last year.
To get your hands on the award-winning Chevy Suburban, schedule a test drive at Atzenhoffer Chevrolet in Victoria, Texas.
If you’re in the market for a smaller vehicle, the best model you can buy is the Chevrolet Bolt EV. That’s according to AAA, which recently ranked the Bolt Premier as the No. 1 small car in its 2021 Car Guide.
The Bolt EV’s agile handling, long all-electric range, and generous passenger space all won accolades from AAA’s annual guide, which is designed to make vehicle shopping a less stressful process.
“The learning curve and decisions to be made can be daunting, and our evaluations in the AAA Car Guide are designed to help drivers select a safe and comfortable vehicle that meets their needs,” said Megan McKernan, manager of the AAA’s Automotive Research Center.
The Bolt EV boasts 259 miles of driving range, so you won’t have to worry about losing power in the middle of nowhere. It accelerates smoothly and handles well, too, making the vehicle as fun to drive as it is efficient.
The interior of the Bolt EV offers plenty of room to keep up to five passengers comfortably, and it’s well-equipped with an array of safety and infotainment technologies. The Premier trim praised by AAA comes standard with driver-assist features like HD Surround Vision, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, and Side Blind Zone Alert with Lane Change Alert.

Chevrolet knows what its customers want, and the Chevy Tahoe RST and Suburban RST models demonstrate just that. The RST trim levels of the 2021 Chevy Tahoe and Suburban hit dealerships in February and quickly left in an average of just 18 days, a significant accomplishment compared to the average optimal time of 60 days. This massive demand for the Chevy and Suburban RST models makes it the fastest-selling trim level.
One of the main reasons the RST trim level is so appealing is that it gives the Suburban and Tahoe SUVs a more athletic, street-inspired design. The 2021 Tahoe and Suburban RST trim features RST-specific emblems and badging and a Jet Black interior with exclusive Victory Red stitching. Additional design elements include a monochromatic Black grille with Black Ice accents and 22-inch bright machined high-gloss Black-painted aluminum wheels.
The RST trim level is just one of the new, exciting aspects to the 2021 Tahoe and Suburban, as both SUVs enjoyed a fresh redesign for the model year. On top of the sculpted designs and more spacious interiors, the SUVs also offer a new spirited engine option. The new Duramax® 3.0-liter Turbo-Diesel engine generates 277 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque.
You can test drive both the 2021 Tahoe and Suburban right here at Atzenhoffer Chevrolet Cadillac in Victoria, Texas.
If towing strength is a requirement for your next SUV purchase, be sure to consider the all-new 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban. These two three-row SUV models can pull with the best of them — and in recognition of that fact, U.S. News & World Report recently named both to its list of 12 Best SUVs for Towing in 2021.
Chevrolet Suburban
The 2021 Suburban is Chevrolet’s biggest SUV, and it lives up to that size with 8,300 pounds of max towing capability. It also gives you the optional Advanced Trailering System with cameras,
trailer profiles, and other tools that help you make the most of your towing tasks.
To go with all that towing muscle, the Suburban also gives you 144.7 cubic feet of total cargo space, roomy seats, advanced safety and infotainment technologies, and plenty of smooth-handling power out on the road.
Chevrolet Tahoe
Need an SUV that’s a bit smaller but just as capable when it comes to towing? The 2021 Tahoe can pull up to 8,400 pounds when properly equipped. With the Tahoe, you’ll also get 122.9 cubic feet
of max cargo space, plus all the power, comfort, and tech that the Suburban offers.

General Motors Going Carbon Neutral by 2040
In a bold step toward a better tomorrow, General Motors has announced that it plans to go fully carbon neutral by 2040. GM continues to prioritize the environment by committing to a science-based approach to reaching climate targets.
A big part of this process will be transitioning GM brand lineups to electric vehicles. The automaker is committed to eliminating all tailpipe emissions from new light-duty vehicles by 2035. Chevrolet will play a big part in that, and the newly revealed Bolt and Bolt EUV show that the future of Chevy EVs is very bright indeed.
“With this extraordinary step forward, GM is making it crystal clear that taking action to eliminate pollution from all new light-duty vehicles by 2035 is an essential element of any automaker’s business plan,” said Environmental Defense Fund President Fred Krupp.
In the walk-up between now and a carbon neutral future, General Motors will continue to invest in electric vehicles. GM will offer 30 EVs around the world by the middle of this decade, and 40 percent of new GM vehicles sold in America by 2025 will be fully electric.
Other ways GM will achieve carbon neutrality include sourcing 100 percent of the energy it uses in the United States from renewable sources by 2030. GM is also working with its supply change to implement meaningful changes and working with EVgo to expand its national charging network.
The future of Chevrolet certainly looks electrifying. Whether it’s the all-new Bolt EUV or the upcoming electric Chevy truck, you’ll find the latest advances from Chevy and GM right here at Aztenhoffer Chevrolet in Victoria, Texas.
