GMC Yukon XL Denali

Living Large With the 2019 GMC Yukon XL

August 30, 2018 by admin 9 Comments

The Yukon XL nails it, but especially so in Denali trim.

This 2019 GMC Yukon XL Denali is dressed in Ultimate trim.

Some SUVs are large, while others are downright enormous. The 2019 GMC Yukon XL Denali fits the latter category.

GMC’s largest model shares its name with the next largest model in this brand’s lineup (Yukon), but it has an extra 14 inches between the wheels and 20.5 inches from bumper to bumper.

2019 GMC Yukon XL DenaliThe Yukon XL benefits from a slight increase in passenger space, particularly with its third-row legroom. But the most significant change is in cargo volume as that maxes out at 121.1 cubic feet to the Yukon’s 94.7 cubic feet. That’s an approximate 27-percent increase in cargo space.

Is there a flip side to the XL version? Yes, in towing capacity. You’ll experience a slight drop in pulling capabilities 8,400 v. 8,100 pounds for the two-wheel drive models and 8,100 v. 7,900 pounds for the four-wheel-drive models. This might be an issue if you regularly tow about four tons. If so, you’re better served by the GMC Sierra, but at a cost of up to three seats.

What’s New for 2019

For 2019, the GMC Yukon XL is carried over with the exception of three new color choices: Dark Sky Metallic, Pepperdust Metallic and Smokey Quartz Metallic. Also, GMC now offers a new Graphite Package with the SLT trim, which brings in 22-inch wheels, blacked-out exterior elements and an upgraded suspension. My test Denali model was dressed in Onyx Black with a Jet Black interior.

The Denali range represents the peak of any GMC product. Yes, pun intended. Prices range from approximately $52,000 to $72,300. They’re approximate because the Denali is the first trim released for the new model year. The rest of the pricing information is pending as of publication. What we do know is that the other trims also carry forward: SLE, SLT Standard Edition and SLT.

Even at the top end of the model range, the Yukon XL Denali offers a few package upgrades. Mine had three: dealer-installed roof rack rails ($265); a Denali Ultimate Package ($8,080, power retractable running boards, a Sun and Entertainment Package, an Enhanced Security Package and adaptive cruise control with forward automatic braking), and the Ultimate Black Edition ($1,000, with special paint and black embellishments, including on the wheels).

Exterior Highlights: A Matter of Style

GM is the king of all big SUVs, easily outselling the Ford Motor Company, its nearest competitor. GM also spreads its models across three brands. Chevrolet has the Tahoe and Suburban, Cadillac the Escalade and Escalade ESV, with GMC adding its duo. From Ford, you’ll find the Ford Expedition and Expedition L and the Lincoln Navigator and Navigator L. Other GMC competitors include the Toyota Land Cruiser and the Nissan Armada.

The GMC offers its own take on the design theme of the automaker’s big SUV models, although its look aligns closer to Chevrolet than it does to Cadillac. But the Denali trim makes its own quest for luxury appeal, beginning with its brash chrome grille. You’ll also find other brightwork trim on the fog light surround, the mirror caps, door handles and on various trim pieces.

Standard Yukon XL features include halogen headlamps, fog lamps, 18-inch aluminum wheels and a manual liftgate. The Denali trim has HID headlamps, heated and power-controlled side mirrors, 22-inch wheels and a power liftgate. Available features include recovery hooks, side steps, a power sunroof and roof rack cross rails.

Interior Highlights: Roomy Cabin

Inside, the cabin is cavernous with a capital C. Seating is for up to nine, that is if you choose the available 40/20/40 split fold-down bench seat in the first row.

2019 GMC Yukon XL DenaliOtherwise, this model seats eight or seven when the second-row bench seat is swapped out for a pair of Captain’s chairs as in the Denali. In this case, less is more as passenger maneuverability improves considerably.

The Yukon XL Denali cabin features leather covering the seats, splashed across the car-like dashboard, on the door inlays and wrapping the steering wheel. Soft touch materials and hard plastics in out of the way places are also present.

2019 GMC Yukon XL DenaliThe driver’s seat is very comfortable, able to accommodate big individuals, which is one of the appeals here. If you’re “relegated” to the second row, the Captain’s chairs are quite satisfying too. The seats are heated, which is the same as the first row, but you won’t have the ventilation option as you do up front.

Another feature about the Captain’s chairs is that they fold and tilt forward, supplying ease of access to the third row.

The third row is comfortable, but legroom is still fairly tight. This is where the GMC trails the Expedition and Navigator, which both offer exceptional legroom.

2019 GMC Yukon XL DenaliIf the third row is used exclusively by youngsters, then that space won’t matter much. Further, the huge cargo area behind the third row means you can carry plenty of luggage inside. Fold one of the rear seats and you’ll extend that space further. Whatever you can’t fit inside will find a home on top.

Standard equipment includes full power accessories, a tilt steering column, premium cloth seats, tri-zone climate control and a cargo net. The Denali models include a power tilt-and-telescopic steering column and power-adjustable pedals.

Safety & Technology

Technology is a GMC strong suit. Even on the standard model, the equipment roster is impressive.

2019 GMC Yukon XL DenaliHere, GMC includes a 9-speaker Bose audio system with a CD player, satellite radio, Bluetooth audio streaming, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone compatibility, an 8-inch touch-screen display, navigation, USB ports and auxiliary audio input. You’ll also find OnStar and GMC connected services capability. Further, the GMC 4G LTE system includes an available Wi-Fi hotspot. All models also come with a 110-volt outlet.

With the Denali, the features list includes a 10-speaker Bose Centerpoint audio system. Options include a rear entertainment system.

On the safety front, all models have a rearview camera. As for driver-assist features, GMC includes side blind zone alert with lane change alert and rear cross traffic alert. Adaptive cruise control is available on the SLT.

As for the Denali, this model builds on these features and adds forward collision alert, lane keep assist and low speed forward emergency braking. This isn’t as robust a package as some models which include forward emergency braking with a full stop.

Your Choice of V8 Engines

All 2019 GMC Yukon and Yukon XL models come with a standard 5.3-liter V8 engine with 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. This engine is married to a six-speed automatic transmission.

Opt for a Denali and you’ll have exclusive access to a 6.2-liter V8 engine with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. Here, GMC brings in a 10-speed automatic transmission. The interesting thing here is the combined city/highway fuel economy for the two models is the same — 17 mpg. So, with the Denali, you get extra power and a more sophisticated transmission without expending more fuel.

The Denali also comes with GM’s Magnetic Ride Control system, which is the world’s fastest reading suspension. The system utilizes special shock absorbers that react and adjust to road bumps “10 times faster than the blink of an eye,” according to GM. As a result, you get a chassis that maintains its poise without any sacrifice to ride quality.

2018 GMC Yukon XL Denali

Regardless of the engine, the Yukon XL doesn’t lack power. If it did, this SUV pushing three tons would simply be a bear to drive. Having driven Chevrolet/GMC/Cadillac models with both V8 engines, the power edge is very apparent with the big V8.

From step-off acceleration to passing power, the Yukon XL moves with authority. The ride is very comfortable and the suspension system swallows bumps with ease. This SUV stays relatively composed on twisty roads with some body roll mitigated. Still, any vehicle with a high profile and the girth to go with it will not share anything like the handling characteristics of a low-slung sports car.

Parting Thoughts: 2019 GMC Yukon XL Denali

The GMC Yukon XL offers a handsome look, an upscale interior and strong engines. The Denali range takes things up a notch with its luxurious interior and excellent ride. No matter how this SUV is attired, it holds its place well in a small segment. Its many tech features may be what clinches it for some buyers.

2016 GMC Yukon XL Denali Redux

August 12, 2016 by admin 5 Comments

GMC’s largest and most luxurious SUV.

2016 GMC Yukon XL Denali

The SUV market continues to expand as consumers make the shift away from cars. The GMC Yukon and the larger Yukon XL are part of that trend and include customers moving up from a minivan or a crossover utility vehicle.

2016 GMC Yukon XL Denali

A 2016 GMC Yukon XL Denali was a recent weekly driver, but it wasn’t the first time I’ve been behind-the-wheel time of this traditional, body-on-frame SUV. Indeed, in my past reviews and thoughts about the model I have affectionately called it “Cadillac Escalade Light,” offering homage to GM’s most luxurious SUV.

That doesn’t mean the big GMC is a lightweight — far from it. It’s as close to a Cadillac model you can get without invading the Escalade’s space. But that still means you get perforated leather seats, heated and cooled front bucket seats, heated second-row outboard seats, a heated steering wheel, a Bose audio system, wireless phone charging, and a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot among other features.

Year-Over-Year Updates

The current-generation Yukon XL was released in 2015, thus its most significant changes took place last year. Even so, GMC wasn’t about to settle on its laurels as there are a few new or updated features included this year.

For one, GMC increased the Intellilink’s processing speed and introduced Apple CarPlay. An enhanced “Driver Alert Package” includes lane keep assist and automatic high/low beam headlamps. Two new exterior colors, a pair of 22-inch wheel choices, and a capless fuel filler feature round out the changes introduced in 2016.

What makes a GMC worthy of the Denali label? Answer: Denali is the top trim level for the brand and is found in every model except for GMC’s full-size Savana van line.

Lay on Some Chrome-Like Touches

One distinguishing feature for all Denalis is the generous amounts of chrome-like trim surrounding the grille, bumpers, headlights, crossing the belt line, on the lower profile trim, enveloping the windows, and on to the rear fascia. Not to be left out are the wheels, typically clad in thick chrome alloy.

The enhanced look isn’t for everyone, but it does provide visual appeal, allowing adorned GMC models get noticed. And if you’re spending around $80,000 for one, you don’t want it to be confused with lesser models. Sure, the Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban have their own appeal, but then they’re not GMC.

The Yukon XL is a massive vehicle and represents the extended wheelbase version of the Yukon. This model is marked by a bold honeycomb grille, flared headlamp assemblies, and distinct pockets housing the LED fog lamps.

The long slab sides are marked by chrome, character lines, body sculpting, trim, and an expansive greenhouse. Indeed, the rear side windows are especially long and contribute to this SUV’s massive persona. At the rear is an expansive lift gate, vertical combination lamps, and a spoiler.

Spacious and Upscale Cabin

Inside, the Denali provides standard seating for seven and available space for eight. The standard seating arrangement has two bucket seats up front, a pair of captain’s chairs in the second row, and a third-row split folding bench seat.

Massive is the cabin and every seating position supplies generous amounts of head space and legroom. The third row has the tightest space, but even that area has sufficient shoulder and hip room.

Up front is a pair of comfortable bucket seats with all driver and cabin controls where you expect to find them. Leather is generously found across the dashboard, surrounding the center console, on the door inlays, and covering the seats. Also present are wood grain accents and burnished aluminum trim; contrast stitching on the console as well as on the doors — collectively, these touches elevate this model.

Standard features are many and include three-zone climate control, a power tilt and telescopic steering column, power-adjustable pedals, as well as heated and ventilated front seats. The second row seats also have a heating option and include a power-release fold and tumble feature for ease of access to the third row.

Additional features standard with the Yukon XL includes keyless entry and push button start, a wireless charging port for mobile phones, and a 110-volt power outlet. On the entertainment side, this model has a 10-speaker, Bose Centerpoint audio system; HD radio; a GMC Intellilink telematics system with an 8-inch color display; and navigation. You’ll also find Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth connectivity, OnStar, and a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot.

Package upgrades allow customers to personalize their Denali as they see fit.

You have your choice of 22-inch wheels ($1,495), an Open Road package ($2,860) — composed of a power sunroof and a rear-seat entertainment system featuring screens for both the second- and third-row passengers — and heated outboard second-row seats ($395). With the bench seat in place, the captain’s chairs go away. Carefully consider whether you need an eighth seating position at such a loss of very comfortable individual seats.

Safety and Road Manners

On the safety front, the Yukon XL Denali comes with a suite of airbags, stability and traction control, front and rear park assist, rear cross traffic alert, lane keep assist, side blind zone alert with lane change alert, a rearview camera, and hill start assist. Also available is adaptive cruise control with front automatic braking ($995) and a head-up display ($425).

Take to the road and the big V8 zooms to highway speeds with authority. The 6.2-liter engine works in tandem with an eight-speed automatic transmission, enabling this vehicle to reach 60 mph from a dead stop in about six seconds.

This model has a firm ride and benefits from Magnetic Ride Control, a real-time damping system. An independent suspension is up front and to the rear is a five-line, solid axle suspension. The electric power-assisted rack-and-pinion arrangement provides effortless handling; the four-wheel disc brakes with vented front and rear rotors bring this three-ton conveyance to a certain stop.

Parting Thoughts

The Yukon XL as well as the Yukon appeal to a certain type of buyer. Both models provide a solid and dependable vehicle ideal for carrying large payloads and for towing. Indeed, if you have 8,000 pounds of camper, boat, or recreational vehicle to pull, then the big GMC can handle that.

Buyers who don’t need such a huge footprint as the Yukon models might consider the GMC Acadia and Acadia Denali instead. The all-new-for-2017 Acadia now offers a standard four-cylinder engine in addition to a 310-horsepower V6. It offers room for up to seven and comes with standard front-wheel drive and available all-wheel drive.

Other models in this segment include the Toyota Land Cruiser, Ford Expedition, and the Nissan Armada. Only the Expedition offers an extended wheelbase version similar to the Yukon XL.

Escalade Light: GMC Yukon XL Denali

December 16, 2015 by admin 1 Comment

2016 GMC Yukon XL

This week, I learned it was possible to have multiple Cadillac Escalade moments behind the wheel of the GMC Yukon XL Denali. That reality shouldn’t surprise too many people as the Escalade ESV and the Yukon XL share the same platform and dimensions.

Choosing the Denali line when shopping GMC brings in a level of bling and comfort rivaling the Cadillac and does so for a lower cost. Still, when all is said and done the base price of your full-size Denali tops $70,000 and ultimately finishes somewhere below $80,000 when every last one of your favorite extras are added. Yet, that’s a price point of $5,000 to $15,000 below the deliciously ostentatious Escalade.

The Yukon XL’s arrival at my home occurred just prior to the release of an Automotive News report explaining that Cadillac wants to distance itself from the Escalade even as it acknowledges that its popular and profitable SUV is keeping the brand afloat. Though the report stated that Cadillac is aspiring to become a more European-centric brand, GMC is unashamedly holding fast to its American bigness and blingness — thank you very much.

Importantly, who really gives much thought about fuel prices when the cost for a gallon of regular gasoline is below $2 as of publication? Sure, you’ll pay more than $60 for fill ups thanks to the GMC’s 31.5-gallon fuel tank, but that’s less than half the cost of topping off when prices were north of $4 per gallon as they were in early 2011. Certainly, the current gas prices are most likely temporary, but American consumers live in the moment and it is at this stage in the car shopping game where GMC massiveness is simply de rigueur.

Measuring more than 19 feet from stem to stern and 80 inches wide by 74 inches tall, the imposing Yukon XL is amplified by chrome-like touches surrounding its massive beehive grille, its front fascia embrasures, on its roof rails, and surrounding the windows. That chrome touch also extends to its profile trim, the door steps and on to the lift gate. Throw in a set of ultra bright machine alloy 20- or 22-inch wheels and the dazzling embellishments are complete.

Inside, the Yukon XL offers no compromise room for eight. Few SUVs can make that claim with one model shortchanging legroom for third-row passengers and another limiting head, shoulder, and hip room. Furthermore, the XL offers nearly 40 cubic feet of standard storage space or enough room to pack a week’s worth of vacation items for your large family. Tie downs, a 12-volt outlet and an open storage compartment are also present.

Likewise, what doesn’t fit inside can be placed on top or towed behind — this model offers approximately four tons of towing capacity.

Slip behind the wheel of the Yukon XL Denali and you gain a generously apportioned and plush power-operated bucket seat with all driver and cabin controls smoothly laid out. Leather seems nearly everywhere — across the dashboard, around the center console, on door inlays, and across the seats. Wood grain touches and burnished aluminum trim is also present; contrast stitching up and down the console and on the doors gives this model added pop. That doesn’t mean plastic isn’t found, it is and in abundance in the rear compartment.

The Denali offers a near embarrassment of riches, including tri-zone climate control, a power tilt and telescopic steering column, power-adjustable pedals, and heated and cooled front seats. The second row seats are also heated and include a power-release fold and tumble feature, providing ease of access to the third row seat. Ah, an Escalade moment.

The seat system was my favorite feature for the Denali. I’ve included pictures for your inspection, but they don’t tell the entire story. That expanded story includes my personal aggravation with some seats in other SUVs, what usually makes it a struggle to access the rear seat or to fold all seats flat — often both challenges are found.

Not so with the GMC — the seats flip, move and fold flat with a touch of a switch or two getting this process going. Indeed, raise the power lift gate and you’ll find a four-switch panel at the ready on the passenger side of the vehicle. Touch the switch closest to the front and the left section of the middle 60-40 seat folds forward. Touch the button again and that same seat tumbles forward. Likewise, the second switch provides the same benefit to the right portion of the seat. However, you can only reverse the process manually.

The third and fourth switches manage each section of the third-row seat. Both seats fall flat and will rise again by pressing the switch in the opposite direction. One more thing — the rear seat passengers have access to three cup holders — two are placed on the sidewall on the driver’s side; the third is located on the wall on the passenger’s side.

Other Yukon features include keyless entry, push button start, wireless charging for mobile phones, and a 110-volt power outlet. This model also comes with a 10-speaker, Bose Centerpoint audio system; HD radio; a telematics system with an 8-inch color display; and navigation. Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth connectivity, OnStar, and a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot are also included. The GMC IntelliLink telematics system is not Cadillac CUE, but I like GMC’s layout better.

GMC also equipped the Denali with a few packages, including the 22-inch wheels ($1,495), an Open Road package ($2,860) — what brings in a power sunroof and a rear seat entertainment system featuring screens for both the second- and third-row passengers, and the heated outboard second-row seats ($395). That three-place bench seat replaces the standard captain’s chairs and supplies the eighth seating position.

Safety features are in abundance too — every Yukon XL Denali offers a suite of airbags, stability and traction control, front and rear park assist, rear cross traffic alert, lane keep assist, side blind zone alert with lane change alert, a rear vision camera, and hill start assist. Adaptive cruise control with front automatic braking ($995) and a head-up display ($425) are also available.

GMC supplies two engine choices for the Yukon XL: a 5.3-liter, V-8 and a 6.2-liter, V-8. Both are gasoline engines — no diesel is currently available in this segment. The smaller engine comes paired with a 6-speed automatic; the larger engine is mated to an 8-speed automatic and is a Denali standard.

The test model was supplied with the 6.2-liter, an engine or one of its variations found in other recent drivers, including under the hood of the Corvette as well as available in the Chevrolet Silverado 1500. With 420 horsepower at the ready, this 16-valve motor should have the power to move this fully loaded SUV and tow it at the same time. I say “should” for the simple reason I didn’t tow with it, nor did I fill it with eight people. Simple math reveals that an 18 percent boost in power is noticeable in the larger engine.

Driving the Yukon XL Denali means you’re commanding attention, both for its sheer girth as well as for its command seating position. Extra large wheels and about 10 inches of ground clearance make a difference too.

On the road, this SUV zooms to highway speeds in under six seconds — of course, that’s with a light load. Yet, even when laden with a heavy burden, this SUV moves fast. The transmission shifts quickly and seamlessly through all eight forward gears — too bad, there is no sport mode available. But then we’re dealing with a steering column-mounted shifter.

The GMC rides firm and has the benefit of magnetic ride control shocks, part of a real-time damping system. Up front is independent suspension and at the rear is a five-line, solid axle suspension. The electric power-assisted rack-and-pinion arrangement makes handling a non effort; four-wheel disc brakes with vented front and rear rotors brings it all to a firm stop. Just like the Escalade.

Opting for the Denali model means investing an extra $10,000 in this SUV. That’s still at least $10,000 less than the Cadillac Escalade, but the Denali may be a more palatial model than what you need or want. That investment goes beyond its “blingness” too, as it brings in higher end materials and technologies that would cost you extra if ordered separately, if available at all.
