2023 Chevrolet Tahoe crash-test ratings
The Tahoe gives up ground in the front passenger seat during the frontal test and in rollover resistance, its lowest rating; the side barrier and pole results sit at the maximum.
NHTSA rates the 2023 Chevrolet Tahoe 4 out of 5 stars overall — 4 for frontal crash, 5 for side crash, 3 for rollover.
NHTSA lists the forward collision and lane departure warnings as standard on some versions and optional on others, so the driver-aid kit can differ from truck to truck. Go by what this example actually has fitted, not by the rating sheet.
Recalls, complaints and investigations
NHTSA keeps these alongside the crash-test results for the 2023 Chevrolet Tahoe SUV 2WD. They answer a different question: not how the vehicle was built to perform in a crash, but what owners and the agency have reported since.
A recall campaign covers a range of vehicles; whether the repair was done on a particular car is a per-VIN question. Check open recalls by VIN.

Inspecting a used 2023 Tahoe
The ratings describe the Tahoe as it left the factory. A car that has been in a serious crash, rebuilt, or had its airbags replaced is no longer the car NHTSA tested.
Work through the driver-assistance settings and note which warnings this truck offers, then confirm each reacts on a drive without fault messages. A warning missing from a trim that should carry it can mean a sensor was disconnected or left out after a repair.
The frontal dip is in the passenger seat. With an adult sitting there, the passenger airbag status indicator should show the airbag on; if it reads off with an adult seated, or an airbag warning stays lit, that seat's restraint system needs checking.
With rollover the lowest rating on the record, tyres and suspension affect how a tall, heavy SUV responds to a sudden swerve. Check that the tyres carry the load rating on the door placard and wear evenly across the tread, and listen for knocks from the front suspension over bumps.
Every rated version of the 2023 Chevrolet Tahoe
NHTSA rates body styles and drivetrains separately, and the results are not always the same. Match the version to the car you are looking at.

How NHTSA's current ratings work
NHTSA announced new NCAP crash tests and rating criteria in July 2008, including a new overall rating that combines the frontal, side and rollover results. It then postponed the change by a year: the new criteria apply to vehicles tested beginning with model year 2011, not 2010 as first announced.
One limit applies to every vehicle here. NHTSA notes that the frontal crash rating “depends on vehicle mass, and cannot be compared across vehicle weight classes” — a full-size truck's frontal stars and a compact car's are not the same measure.
- Federal Register, 73 FR 79206 (Dec. 24, 2008) — new NCAP criteria begin with model year 2011
- Federal Register, 73 FR 40016 (July 11, 2008) — NCAP testing and rating changes, including the overall rating
- Federal Register, 68 FR 59250 (Oct. 14, 2003) — NCAP rollover resistance ratings
