Owning the large, three-row Yukon is a first-class experience and GMC has managed to take that refinement to a whole new level for the 2021 model year. The newly redesigned Yukon features more of everything. The GMC SUV boasts more size and space, more technology, and more capabilities than ever before. Join Vern Eide Chevrolet, your trusted GMC dealer, as we introduce you to the 2021 Yukon.
Where do we begin? The 2021 GMC Yukon has been redesigned from the inside out. It is bigger, more spacious, and offers an all-new Yukon AT4 model for the first time ever. The Next Generation Yukon includes the following changes and upgrades:
PERFORMANCE
INTERIOR
TECHNOLOGY
The 2021 GMC Yukon is 6.1 inches longer than the previous generation and has expanded its wheelbase by 4.9 inches. The result? A wealth of interior space that features 40 percent more third-row legroom and class-leading cargo space behind the aforementioned third row. Whether you need space for passengers or payload, the 2021 Yukon over-delivers with seating for up to eight and a tremendous 122.9 cubic feet of cargo area with the second- and third-row seats folded flat.
“There’s a familiarity to the new Yukon’s exterior, paying homage to its predecessor while simultaneously offering a fresh, new look. Up front a massive grille varies its design, using black horizontal slats for the AT4 model and trademark Galvano chrome mesh for the Denali. LED daytime running lights, LED headlights and LED fog lights complete the look. From the side, the styling remains reserved, with minimal chrome accents and relatively slab-sided sheet metal complemented by vast expanses of flush side glass. Wheels range in size from 18 to 22 inches. Around back, the wide rear hatch now incorporates a separate flip-up glass panel for easier access.” 1
“Our experience in a top-trim Denali tester colors us impressed. The Yukon still feels like the big truck that it is from behind the wheel, but everything about its character feels more refined than the previous model. Our tester’s adaptive air suspension glides over all but the roughest road textures, with none of the rear jitters we’ve come to expect of body-on-frame SUVs. It also gives the Yukon surprising handling characteristics.” 2
“It’s positively enormous. The new Yukon is the first of its kind to comfortably fit adults in its third row. It’s also the first to successfully fit passengers in the third row and a substantial amount of luggage—in this case, four airline-friendly rollaboard bags (done without stacking the bags on top of each other, too).” 3
