The 2023 GMC Yukon XL is unique among other full-size SUVs with its powerful engine performance, off-road prowess, and excellent fuel efficiency. With room for up to nine passengers, it’s one of the most spacious vehicles on the road today, and its comfortable seating options and sophisticated tech features make it a pleasure to drive, whether you’re cruising highways, exploring nature, or using it as a reliable everyday commuter.
Power and Versatility
Offering plenty of impressive performance, this edition of the Yukon XL has three engine options available: a 420-horsepower 6.2-liter V8, a 355-horsepower 5.3-liter V8, and a 277-horsepower 3.0-liter turbo-diesel six-cylinder. While the two V8s offer a bit more muscle, the turbo-diesel engine is perfect for those looking for a mix of strength and fuel efficiency, as it gets an estimated 27 mpg on highways.
When driving off-road, the available Active Response 4WD system can sense when any of the wheels need traction and automatically adapts the vehicle to challenging terrains, while the Traction Select System lets you quickly choose which driving mode you’d like to be in based on your surroundings.
Comforts and Technology
As a longer, more spacious edition of the Yukon, the XL model provides plenty of room for cargo inside its cabin, with up to 41.5 cubic feet available behind the third row and up to 36.7 inches of third-row legroom. The front-row seats can be both heated and cooled and come in a wide array of fabric options, including premium leather trim, while a heating setting is also available for the second-row seats as well.
Many advanced tech features can also be found inside the cabin, like the GMC Infotainment System, which pairs with a 10.2-inch diagonal touchscreen and an available 14-speaker Bose audio system, giving you everything you need to navigate your way to destinations, make hands-free calls, and listen to music with enhanced clarity and rich bass. There’s also a Wi-Fi hotspot for hopping on the internet when you need to, which can support multiple devices simultaneously.
Intelligent Safety Systems
Even the safety and driver-assist features in this SUV are hi-tech, with Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert helping to make lane changes on highways safer by warning you if other vehicles are approaching yours from either side. Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning is also helpful, as it provides alerts through the steering wheel if you start to unintentionally drift away from your lane.
Forward Collision Alert helps you stay a safe distance away from other vehicles by warning you if you’re getting too close. If you need to stop quickly and don’t respond, Automatic Emergency Braking can take over and apply brake pressure if needed.
With a luxurious, tech-laden cabin and both strong performance and off-road capabilities, the 2023 Yukon XL is ready for whatever adventures you have in mind.
