The large SUV Yukon was officially revealed to the public in 2013 and was expected to start selling with 2015.
The Yukon XL was built on the GMT K2XX platform, similar to the Chevrolet Suburban, but with a wider rear track.
The imposing large SUV was pretty much square shaped, having a huge chrome grille with the GMC logo in red on it and chrome surrounds on the foglamps. The front parking sensors were integrated in the front bumper.
At the back, the Yukon had led brake lights and turn signals, along with the GMC badge in the middle of the trunk lid.
To make things easier, the Yukon had a power lift gate that was actioned by the button on the trunk lid and revealed a good size load area. If cargo area needed to be increased, the 3rd row was made of power folding seats with a quick response. The 3rd row seats could be folded using the buttons inside the trunk.
Loading heavy items in the Yukon’s trunk was a little difficult due to the car’s height.
Inside the large SUV we would find a refined interior, with heated and cool extremely comfortable seats, a leather wrapped steering wheel that was also heated, nice and simple dial gauges as well as a touchscreen display that could also show navigation if available.
The glovebox was of a decent size, as well as the numerous cupholders and smaller storage spaces in the door panels.
The 2nd row seats offered good legroom and headroom, while the 3rd row seats were only adequate for children due to the limited legroom.
