Nov 15, 2024 09:52 PM Size matters when you’re shopping for a spacious family SUV. The 2025 GMC Yukon may be bigger than most SUVs, but the trade-off is excellent cargo and passenger space and plenty of room for creature comforts. The GMC Yukon and GMC Yukon XL both have plenty of room for you and your family, but how much do they differ? You can compare them for yourself at McGuire Buick GMC, but before you do, here’s a quick rundown.

Cargo Room
The cargo space is the most significant difference between the 2025 GMC Yukon and the GMC Yukon XL. The maximum cargo volume in the 2025 GMC Yukon behind the third row of seats is 25.5 cubic feet. The GMC Yukon XL has a longer wheelbase, so you have a cavernous 41.5 cubic feet of storage space behind the third row.

Passenger Leg Room

What Is This Sticker?

Sep 06, 2024 09:25 PM Knowing how to load and unload the cargo area properly is an essential part of safely driving your Buick SUV. If you don’t heed these safety concerns, you may put your vehicle or cargo at risk. Learn how to safely load your Buick SUV by listening to these tips from the McGuire Buick GMC team.

Stacking Your Items
