Want the five Ps in your large family SUV? Purchase the GMC Yukon Denali next year and you can have power, performance, and personality in a premium package, according to GM Australia and New Zealand’s MD, Jess Bala.
“There’s no denying it’s a statement vehicle – with the Denali package, the Yukon offers customers the ultimate in premium finishes and performance.
“The GMC Yukon is the ultimate vehicle for families and groups who need to transport as many as eight people in comfort, safety, and style, combined with unheralded towing capability and luggage carrying ability.
“A powerful petrol V8 engine, luxurious interior, and cavernous boot space are complemented with the latest in technology and safety systems to make the GMC Yukon Denali a ‘must have’ vehicle brought to you by GMSV.”
Scheduled to go on sale in the second quarter of next year, the GMC Yukon Denali features a 6.2-litre V8 petrol engine. It delivers 313kW of power and 624Nm of torque. This is the same unit that’s found in the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 range. It’s expected the Yukon will over best-in-class towing, though a figure isn’t to hand just yet.
Manoeuvring the Yukon in and out of tight confines is made simpler with 13 different camera views. These include all the usuals, plus a hitch view with guidance to help customers connect to their trailers.
The images are displayed on a 16.8-inch tablet-style infotainment screen. It handles Apple CarPlay, and wireless Android Auto apps, vehicle settings, and drive modes, amongst other things.
In addition to seating for eight, the GMC Yukon Denali offers 3480L of cargo space when all rear seats are decommissioned.
The second- and third-row seats fold flat, making the interior space perfect for transporting bulky items.
With all seats is in use, there’s provision for three child seats with ISOFIX points.
Testing and validation continue in Victoria ahead of the Q2 on-sale date. Pricing should be available before year’s end.
