2025 GMC Yukon

Every trim in the lineup carries GMC’s signature design DNA: bold contours, a wide stance, and distinctive C-shaped LED headlamps. Yet each trim distinguishes itself with bespoke styling elements. The Elevation trim delivers a confident starting point with 20-inch machined aluminum wheels, black roof rails, recovery hooks, and a programmable power liftgate. Functional yet sharply styled, it's the no-compromise baseline for buyers looking for luxury and utility. Next is the AT4, designed unapologetically for those who venture beyond the pavement. With a fierce front fascia, Carbon Flash Metallic wheels wrapped in all-terrain tires, underbody skid plates, and unique darkened exterior accents, it announces its off-road intentions with confidence. At the top of the off-road hierarchy is the all-new AT4 Ultimate, a tour de force of rugged luxury. Its bold, exclusive grille and panoramic dual-pane sunroof complement 20-inch all-terrain wheels, while advanced off-road tech ensures it’s not just for show—it’s built for the extremes. For those seeking the pinnacle of sophistication, the Denali Ultimate delivers. This trim defines premium with exclusive 24-inch machined aluminum wheels in After Midnight Metallic, Vader Chrome accents, and a grille that’s more sculpture than hardware.

Under the hood, the 2025 Yukon offers a trio of formidable powertrains. The 5.3L V8 engine, standard on the Elevation and AT4 trims, this engine produces 355 hp and 383 lbs.-ft. of torque. The powerhouse 6.2L V8 generates a massive 420 hp and 460 lbs.-ft. of torque, equipping it for off-road domination and heavy-duty jobs. For exceptional efficiency and long-distance hauling endurance, the 3.0L Duramax® Turbo-Diesel is optional across all trims, offering up 395 hp and a substantial 495 lbs.-ft. of low-end torque. Active Thermal Management ensures superior cooling for this engine under strain. All engines are paired with a smooth-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission for optimal shifts under any conditions.

The Yukon’s chassis is engineered for versatility and control, providing a composed ride across conditions. The available Magnetic Ride Control continuously adapts to changing terrain, while the optional Air Ride Adaptive Suspension adjusts ride height for better aerodynamics on highways or added clearance off-road. For true adventurers, the AT4 and AT4 Ultimate feature the new Active Response 4WD System, integrating an electronic limited-slip differential and real-time torque distribution. The result is precise traction on dirt, gravel, or slick asphalt, with Traction Select settings that adjust to the terrain beneath you. With a towing capacity of up to 8,400 lbs. and the ProGrade™ Trailering System, the Yukon is ready to handle boats, trailers, and toys with confidence—perfect for weekend escapes from Lake Livingston to Sam Houston National Forest.

Inside, the 2025 Yukon is a sanctuary of comfort and intelligent design. It seats up to 8 with generous space in all three rows. Available premium leather appointments, a 16-way power-adjustable driver’s seat with massage functions, and heated and ventilated second-row captain’s chairs bring limousine-grade comfort to an SUV platform. Technology takes center stage with a 16.8-inch GMC Premium Infotainment System, boasting Google built-in, wireless smartphone integration, and personalized driver profiles. The optional 22-speaker Bose® Performance Series audio system, complete with headrest speakers, transforms the cabin into a private concert hall. Additional conveniences like a power-sliding center console, a 15-inch multicolor Head-Up Display, and dedicated rear climate controls ensure that every passenger—front to third row—experiences true comfort.

Peace of mind is standard in the 2025 Yukon. GMC’s suite of advanced driver assistance includes Enhanced Automatic Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Alert, Lane Keep Assist, and Front Pedestrian Braking. In the Denali Ultimate, Super Cruise® takes highway driving to the next level, enabling hands-free operation on compatible roads. The available HD Surround Vision system enhances maneuvering precision with a bird’s-eye view of the vehicle’s surroundings—ideal for navigating tight parking spaces in downtown Huntsville or crowded event lots.
