The 2025 GMC Yukon XL is a full-size SUV that combines capability and comfort. With powerful engine options, advanced safety features, and plenty of cargo room, it is built to handle everything from daily drives to long road trips.

Exploring the Spacious Design and Features of the 2025 GMC Yukon XL
Exceptional Space and Comfort
The Yukon XL provides spacious accommodation for every passenger. The front seat includes an 8-way power driver seat adjuster. However, even in the back row, more than 3 feet of legroom is available to stretch out. Behind the third row, 41.5 cubic feet of cargo space remain.
Folding rows expand total cargo volume to 144.7 cubic feet, offering some of the best utility in its class. Cloth seating and tri-zone climate control, as well as a wrapped, heated steering wheel, are also standard features. Other conveniences include rear window defoggers, a 10-speaker surround audio system, and remote start.
Engine Power
The AT4 trim comes equipped with a 5.3-liter V8 engine, which generates 355 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque. Drivers looking for extra strength can look to Denali, with its 6.2-liter V8 and 420 horsepower. Both are 10-speed automatics with rear-wheel drive, a 220-amp alternator, and external engine oil cooler, built to keep things running well and efficiently.
Towing Capability
Relying on that engine, the Yukon XL can haul more than just passengers. It tows up to 7,600 pounds, which is ideal for trailers, boats, or campers. Trailer Sway Control is a standard feature that helps to keep the load stable, while other available features such as the integrated trailer brake controller and advanced camera views can be added to simplify hitching and maneuvering if desired.
Technological Benefits
Every Yukon XL comes standard with a 10.2-inch diagonal infotainment system equipped with built-in Google, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. Multiple USB ports, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and premium sound are integrated to ensure the satisfaction and connection of all passengers. As an added treat, trial subscriptions to both SiriusXM and 360L are included. The Denali offers an enhanced trailering technology package as part of its set up.
Safety Features
Safety is central and prioritized across the Yukon XL lineup. Automatic emergency braking, forward collision alert, lane keep assist, and IntelliBeam auto high beams are standard. There is also the option to expand driver-assist features. Super Cruise, a hands-free system that increases ease, rear cross-traffic braking, and traffic sign recognition act as a boon to the driver. Teen Driver Assist is incorporated across all models as well, creating peace of mind for parents. The SUV is also backed by GMC’s 3-year/36,000-mile bumper-to-bumper and 5-year/60,000-mile roadside assistance program.
