2021 GMC Yukon Mobile Auto Canada Overview

2021 GMC Yukon Denali

 

Overview

GMC has redesigned their Yukon full-size SUV line up for 2021, like the prior four generations, the 2021 GMC Yukon and extended-wheelbase Yukon XL share as much as they can with the 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban. However, GMC has successfully differentiated the conservatively styled 2021 Yukon from the edgy Tahoe, Suburban and blocky Escalade, especially in the SUV’s AT4 trim. The updated Yukon Denali takes things a step further, sporting both distinctive sheet metal and a trim-specific dashboard, leaving the AT4 and the rest of the Yukon line to essentially share a cabin design with the Chevy Tahoe and Suburban.

What’s New in the 2021 GMC Yukon?

The GMC Yukon boasts a new infotainment system, more standard driver-assistance features, a much larger cargo hold, an additional 2 inches of third-row legroom, and revamped exterior and interior styling.

Exterior

With the new design for 2021, we expect a significant change from the previous model. GMC has brought big difference with the newly redesigned 2021 Yukon making it very similar to the redesigned exterior they have offered on the Sierra starting in 2019. A set of 22-inch aluminium wheels comes with the Denali’s Ultimate Package, and they add significant presence to a design that already commands your attention.

Interior

The 2021 GMC Yukon features two different interior designs, one interior design is exclusively for Denali and other design for AT4 and lower trim levels. The most significant difference between the two interior designs is the infotainment system screen placement. We will show you the difference below.
