2024 GMC Yukon XL: The Transportation Solution for Growing Families

When you arrive at our Little Falls, NJ, GMC dealership for your road test, you’ll have three engines to choose from. The SUV’s base engine is a 5.3-liter V8 unit that produces 355 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque. Next up is a 6.3-liter V8 engine that generates 460 lb-ft of torque and 420 horsepower, and the final engine is a turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 diesel powerplant that delivers 277 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque.

Rear-wheel drive is standard on all but the GMC Yukon XL AT4 trim, with all-wheel drive offered as an option. The GMC Yukon XL AT4 model is only available with AWD. A responsive 10-speed automatic transmission is standard across the SUV’s trims. With the right equipment, the GMC Yukon XL can tow up to 8,400 lbs.

New GMC SUVs are known for being spacious, with the GMC Yukon XL earning similar praise. The GMC Yukon XL has seats for seven to nine passengers depending on the layout of its first and second rows. Each row has enough shoulder, head-, and legroom for adult travelers to settle in and get comfortable.

Cargo room is enviably plentiful inside the SUV’s accommodating cabin. Behind its third row, the GMC Yukon XL has 41.5 cubic feet of cargo room. Folding the rearmost seats increases the vehicle’s cargo capacity to 93.8 cubic feet. The SUV’s cargo volume swells to a cavernous 144.7 cubic feet if you fold both the second and third rows.

As you’d expect a GMC SUV to be, the GMC Yukon XL is outfitted with desirable amenities. The vehicle’s long list of standard features includes:

• Front and rear parking sensors
• Lane departure warning with lane-keeping assist
• Forward collision warning and intervention system
• 10.2-inch infotainment touchscreen
• 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster
• Tri-zone automatic climate control
