The 2024 GMC Yukon and its elongated counterpart, the Yukon XL, are General Motors' crown jewels for combining luxury with capability. Space is a prime offering in these models. The Yukon provides lavish room across its three rows, while the Yukon XL takes it a step further, boasting even more cargo room, making it perfect for long trips or hefty hauls.
Under the hood, the Yukon doesn't disappoint. Most models come equipped with powerful V-8 engines, either the 5.3 or 6.2-liter varieties, and for those looking for something unique, a turbo-diesel 3.0-liter inline-six engine is also up for grabs.
Performance-wise, these SUVs are beasts. Strong towing capacity and brisk acceleration are guarantees, regardless of the engine choice. Notably, the Denali trims elevate the luxury feel, competing neck-and-neck with premium models like the Cadillac Escalade and Lincoln Navigator. The 2024 Denali Ultimate trim, a noteworthy addition to the family, comes adorned with plush Alpine Umber leather, a state-of-the-art 18-speaker Bose stereo system, unique 22-inch wheels, and many other sophisticated details.
Interiors, across all variants, are designed for comfort and elegance. The Denali models, for instance, showcase a wood-trimmed dashboard and meticulously hand-stitched leather upholstery. A standout feature is the innovative power-sliding center console in SLT and AT4 models, which makes room for additional first-row cargo. With the Yukon XL, you get an unrivaled 145 cubic feet of maximum cargo space, surpassing competitors.
