In the late 1990s, GM also introduced a RHD version of the Suburban, badged as a Holden, for the Australian consumer. The United States Secret Service mainly uses black Suburbans, and operates fully armoured versions for the President of the United States when he attends less formal engagements. The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas operates a fleet of purple Suburbans to serve VIP patrons and high rollers. Suburbans are also popular when converted for duty as a limousine. In recent years, the Suburban has been popular as a police car, fire chief's vehicle, or EMS fly-car. This class of truck remains much more popular than full-sized vans which can carry even more passengers and tow trailers. The extra length provides a full-sized cargo area behind the up to 9 passengers to carry their luggage for an extended trip, and tow a sizeable trailer. The Suburban retains the same height and width dimensions as the Chevrolet Tahoe, with an additional 20 inches added on to the length of the vehicle. It is one of the few station wagons available with all bench rows.

The Suburban of today is a full-size SUV with three rows of seating, a full pickup truck frame, and V8 engine. The latest competitor is the extended Ford Expedition EL, which replaced the Excursion. It has outlasted many competitive vehicles such as the International Harvester Travelall, Jeep Wagoneer, and the Ford Excursion.

The Chevrolet Suburban is one of the largest SUVs on the market today. With the end of production of the Dodge Town Wagon in 1966 and the Plymouth Suburban station wagon in 1978, only General Motors continued to manufacture a vehicle branded as a 'Suburban', and they were awarded an exclusive trademark on the name in 1988. These vehicles were also known as the 'Suburban Carryall' until GM cut the name to simply 'Suburban.' Chevrolet began production of its all-steel 'carryall-suburban' in 1935.

Many automotive companies in the United States used the 'Suburban' name to indicate a windowed, station wagon type body on a commercial frame including Dodge, Plymouth, Studebaker, Nash, Chevrolet, and GMC.
