Scheduled to go on sale in the second quarter of next year (2025), GMSV has revealed further details regarding the specification of the new model.
At the heart of the GMC Yukon Denali is a 6.2-litre V8 petrol engine, delivering 313kW of power and 624Nm of torque - the same dependable and proven powertrain as found in the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 range. A tow rating will be released closer to launch, but the Yukon is anticipated to offer best-in-class towing.
Manoeuvring the Yukon in and out of tight confines is made easier thanks to the inclusion of up to 13 camera views which provide extra sets of eyes all around the vehicle.
Camera views include a surround view, front and rear views (including top-down views) and a hitch view with hitch guidance to help customers connect to their trailers with precision and more.
The various camera views are all displayed on the impressively large 16.8-inch diagonal tablet style infotainment screen. The infotainment screen, when not being used for camera projection, displays vehicle applications such as Apple CarPlayR, and wireless
Android AutoTM, vehicle settings, drive modes and more.
In addition to seating for eight, the GMC Yukon Denali will offer a gargantuan 3,480-litres of cargo volume when the second and third row are lowered.
The seats all fold flat, making the interior space perfect for transporting large and bulky items.
If the full configuration of seats is in use, even the smallest of passengers have been considered - there are three ISOFIX points throughout the vehicle.
Real-world testing continues in Victoria with a fleet of engineering vehicles conducting local testing and validation ahead of the Q2 on-sale date.
Pricing for the new model is anticipated to be released later this year.
