The 6.2L is unreliable junk. Of all of the engine offerings here, the 3.0L Duramax diesel is probably the best, but it will still suffer from the endless emission system issues that all 2007+ MY diesels suffer from. And, of course, less than 10% of the U.S. population can actually afford this truck.
@@davewiley1502 My buddy had two 6.2L fail in their Yukon XL Denali (2021? I think). First one when they were towing their SxS, want to say under 60k miles. The replacement engine failed on the tech when road testing is what the advisor told them. Was fine a few months till it was totaled when they were stopped at a light so they went diesel on the next one.
@@WheresHerb You just sound like a karen that thinks if she doesn't like something about a vehicle, it shouldn't be offered to anyone that might want it. Just like the greenies that hated the Ford Excursion and would screech at people that drove one because they thought it was too big.
@@saywhatnow57 Neither if these shown will be anywhere close to 60. These are both top of the range models and will absolutely be within range of 100k, if not over.
@@thesandman775 Well duh... But why would a car with this much luxury not cost 100k? No one needs all of this unless they are rich. They're still pretty nice at 60k.
These used to be like 30k when I was kid. And they were more reliable! No one’s wages have doubled since then. And you would have to be OUT OF YOUR MIND to pay GM this much. Absolutely disgusting what they charge for new cars.
Wages would have had to triple, but you're right they haven't. This is why almost every household in the US is being forced to be a dual earner household. It's all but impossible to survive on a single income now.
@@CornFed_3 go to KBB and look it up. A 2002 GMC Yukon had an MSRP of 37k and the Denali version started at 47k. There is no reason these truck’s should be 2-3x as expensive as they were. That 2002 had a 5.3L, just like we have now.
I couldnt finish watching this video, every new trim will cost like 5k more than the previous yukon, and will be probably even less reliable, waiting to eventually see the 200k for a entry level Gimme More Cash
@CornFed_3 Not all trades, skills, or jobs pay insane money. Take police, fire, EMS, and other services. Great skills. We keep entitled people who think there poop don't stink alive. Maybe you should lean a little closer and take a smell. Learn to be humble. One day the one you talk down on will be the one in control. 😂 hope its not your kids wanting to pull your life support so they can buy a new car with your insurance money.
Imagine shelling out all this money because they added a few screens in the car. It's crazy because if you look at a base model truck, of any brand, and then spec one out to the highest trim, apparently it cost over the price of a base truck to put leather, seats, a few screens, and 4x4 in a truck. That's absolute insanity. They're literally f*****g us.
I am a Chevrolet specialty repair facility. The newer ecotec v8 engines are not great. Same lifters and problems with the AFM systems since 2007ish. Atleast the LS based engines were really nice to work on and delete the failing AFM lifters and make the engines reliable.. the new ecotec engine is a pain to do the repairs on... We are turning them all down for the repairs.. My personal rig is a 2013 denali with AFM delete. Last of the best made 6.2 denali models. I will drive it to 500k miles
It looks like the dash is maybe a little lower than the previous version, which is great because the previous gen had these air vents in the eyeline all of the time. I wonder if they will offer a smaller screen setup on the lower trims, I would prefer that.
The Terrain is the SUV GMC builds for the masses. Arcadia is for upper middle class. This is built for people with 2 million+ net worth and 250k+ household income.
These things are perfect vehicles for the Party Elite to drive to their environmental summits. I don’t think you could cram more pointless tech features into a truck if you tried. And I love how GM doesn’t offer 4 low on a Colorado work truck, but has it standard on a vehicle with 24” wheels. We are truly living in the future.
@@karlschauff7989 it’s not a relic to me. I drive a 22 Colorado with an 8 speed tranny and I’m in 4LO just about every weekend on the beach.

They need to bring back 2500 class SUVs. The payload and towing on this is too low for a family of 5 or 6 plus people. There needs to be enough payload for people, pets, luggage and enough capacity to tow a travel trailer
I restored a 2000 GMC Yukon to near-new condition this year. Had a full underbody rust clean off with anti-rust coating service, full interior upholstery work done, the engine bay cleaned and polished, all the mechanics and electronics checked and repaired.. oh, and a complete outer paint job - gold metallic, and matte black for trims and wheel-wells ofc, with chrome polish for the bumpers ;) ✨✨✨ I can tell you right now: That was 10X more satisfying than buying a new one AND at around $7000, I'm betting it's gonna be less than a tenth of the price when the 2025 model is up for sale.
I love the new 2025 Yukon Denali and AT4 Ultimates, especially the AT4 Ultimate, and I'd probably get it with the improved diesel now also available on the AT4. I do have a question for you though. Let me explain first. With all the enhancements, and those are great, my only real concern left is road clearance, in part due to the design of that independent rear suspension in the back that from the inside of the rear wheels goes down and then in towards the center so far before going higher. The listed road clearance height isn't bad, it's more than most regular street cars, but it's an suv, and with its adjustable air ride suspension it starts at less than 8", which is what most concerns me. With the adjustable air ride suspension, I've been told it does go up to less than 9" in 4H, and less than 10" in 4L, but it only remains at the max height up to around 15-20 mph before automatically dropping back down, and only remains at the mid height up to around 40-45 mph before automatically dropping back down. So I have a technical question I hope you may know the answer to: Is it reasonably possible to do a 2" or 3" lift on these after market, upgrading any parts of the suspension that would be appropriate as a result, but here's the key part, while still being able to fully use and rely on the magna ride and adjustable air ride parts of the suspension? I've seen lifts on these, even one at 3"s that claimed to trick the magna ride into still working fully, but is that true, and what about the adjustable air ride suspension? I'd love this even more if I could get the base height to say 10"s, and have it go up to say 11" in 4H and 12" in 4L, or even even a little higher range than that, but still have full use of the magna ride & adjustable air ride. And if you have any other thoughts as well to share about this idea, I would welcome that too. Thanks. And thanks for another great review.
It seems like it was not long ago that only super cars were in this price range. Now a "typical" SUV costs that much. I just need to know who's buying these and what do they do for a living??? My purchase power has gone down down down and these prices go up up up! UA-cam recommends all these videos about a car market crash happening now, yet all I see is vehicles like this getting pushed out and getting purchased!!!! He said they were already sold??? For $100k+?? What is happening!!!!?
Do any of these have a 12 volt round power outlet? Many of us have interior or roof mounted lights that still need them. I believe the pickups eliminated them or only offer just 1 in lower trims.
After seeing all the new features in the SUV, I now feel ripped off that I bought a Silverado EV. For $100K, my truck does NOT have Apple CarPlay, no massage seats, no premium sound system, no massive screen. I think I'm gonna sell it and get one of these instead. Way more bang for your buck.

Hey kids, just a reminder, if you spend all your money on car payments, you will retire with no money. Kind of a missed opportunity with the infrared camera… You should next time take the camera from your camera man and have them walk in front of the vehicle to show operation.
From a business point of view, you put this on a 4 year lease with $5000 USD down and payments with a total lease obligation of $84,000 USD at $1750 per month. Since you are typically using this for work, you will get a 18% tax credit/fuel and general vehicle expense write-off from the IRS meaning your actual monthly payment will be $1435. At the end of the four years, if you don't need/want a new vehicle, you can keep it with a $12,000 Buyout from the lease company and THEN your accountant will make sure that business-expensed lease buy out will be only $9,840 USD during the current tax year! Hopefully, your monthly contractor/construction/trades work gross income will be at least $6500 per month ($78,000 USD per year!) which means you will only be spending 22% of your income on a very nice, luxurious truck as your daily work driver and weekend family lakeside-cabin runner. After your mortgage (about $1950 per month), gas/diesel and the obligatory car+house insurance costs, you will still have enough monthly savings to put a small $200 per month stipend towards your 401k retirement plan and STILL be able to pay for internet, phone, streaming TV, utilities, taxes and a monthly family dinner out at Montana's Steak House! There! I just did your "I'm living a Half-decent and Not Overly Strenuous Financial Life" financial plan for you! V
@@StarGateSG7You can do a lot with 1750 a month. Purchase a rental property that makes you money. Invest in a business etc. Far better than putting it into a depreciating status symbol.
I like the 6 spoke wheels on the first one with 6 lug nuts. I hate when companies don't match the number of spokes to lugnuts or a multiple of it. Yes, I do have OCD.
It will only cost you 2 of the 3 children you wanted to haul around in it! But the wife will like her heated and cooled seat. Drive it like you own it until they repossess it!
My wife and I test drove a 2024 Yukon Denali. We wanted to try an Ultimate with no luck. It sold. It is a smooth ride. But not smooth enough. The Toyota Sequoia our performs the Denali in every way. We went and test drove one for the second time in 1.5 years to refresh our memory of it. The first time was a Capestone , this time a Platinum which still out performed the Denali. With this ride we decided to buy gives you more bang for less money. Again the Denali is a sweet ride.
Andre, you activated my Google Home when you said "Hey Google" 😂 She said "Why was the students report card wet?" "Because it was below C level.". Biggest improvement on this truck? The gear shifter!! I hated the last one where it was buttons that had a goofy shape. The interior on these are very nice. I hope to be able to afford one in 10 years.
I have a 1998 GMT400 Yukon. Some years ago I never thought that I will say this: Definitely, if I am going to buy a 2007+ 4x4 , it will be a Suzuki Jimny or a Land Cruiser 70 Series, fortunately they are sold in my country, more inclined to the LC.
@@toddbob55 Yeah I used to say that until the last couple Toyota trucks I had. The latest being a 2016 Tacoma that was the biggest pile of sh I have ever bought new off the dealer lot. Our Highlander needed a new engine at 90k miles after one of the cylinder walls developed a crack out of the blue and acted like it had a bad headgasket. Always dealer serviced and oil always changed early. Since then I had a 2019 Silverado that was perfect and reliable, even the 8-speed. Would have kept it but needed a trucked equipped for a higher tow rating.
I personally feel that practicality will always surpass "New Tech or futuristic gear." GMC's 2024 denali interior looks better and more functional for the simple fact that it has physical buttons for the AC. It just seems that the infotainment center would distract your focus from the road too long to adjust the AC. But the good news is 2023 and 2024 models will drastically drop in price cause $100,000 for an SUV is just insane!!!
Growing up, I had pictures of Lamborghinis Ferraris and Aston Martin cars in my wall as an adult. I have a picture of a TRX raptor and possibly this Yukon now because it is beautiful cars I’ll never afford.
Beautiful vehicle !😂, It is very sad, GM or dealerships make it where the average income person cant afford to pay $1,000 or more , bucks a month ! 😮, only catering to Rich 😂😂😂
So much better than the 2025 Chevy version. Awesome they hit the perfect sweet spot with this it’s not to basic like the Chevy but it’s also not to obnoxious like the Escalade.
Great review Andrea, super nice SUV but I do miss the 70's simplicity. The vehicles of today will do everything you need, I can't imagine what they're come up with next.
They are missing the built-in smartphone lockable exterior-interior-accessible combo-fridge/freezer, built-in expresso/machine coffeemaker, one cubic foot combo microwave/convection oven, heated and chilled cup holders, built-in shortwave/starlink/VHF/UHF SDR-based long-range transceiver internet videophone/voice-call radios, 100,000 lumens retractible four-direction lightbars with user-selectable flashing or solid-colour lighting patterns in Bright White, NightEye Red, Safety Yellow, Pilot Car Orange, Partytime Deep Purple and Glowing Green, Thermal Nightvision Infrared and UV/Blacklight formats! Add in the twin front and back 25,000 lbs winches, the full width and height bush bars front and rear with built-in fog lamps and DCI-8k resolution 360 degree surround-view thermal nightvision and RGB optical cameras at 120 fps frame capture rates. Oh yeah! Also add a choice between the TWEEL-based airless no-flat polymer wheels or the DARPA shape-shifting wheels with in-cabin user-selectable round street or cleated-track configurations for deep winter snow and summer beach use! Might as well add a 50 Kilowatt (50,000 WATTS!) on-board propane-powered super-quiet Ballard fuel cell generator with multiple 240V/30 amp and 50 amp AC plugs on all corners of the truck for running your home or RV during a blackout AND multiple welders, compressors, big tools, CNC machines, 3D printers, washing machines, dryers, etc at your campsite or worksite plus add multiple 120V/20 amp AC plugs for your home electronics and and multiple USB-4 Type A and C plugs and multiple 24V, 12V and 5V DC charger ports inside and outside the truck! Is that enough for you in terms of luxury comforts to add to a truck or SUV?
It would be helpful to see how Apple CarPlay functions in this new display. Curious if Google/GM have handicapped it like the current truck model 13.7” display
I feel the AT4 Ultimate is a waste of money....for that they could have introduced an AT4X with front and rear lockers , DSSV shocks and winch capability as well as more ground clearance....even an X31 trim below the AT4 would have been nice.
I think they did a nice job updating the Yukon lineup for 2025. I also really appreciate them differentiating the Yukon further from the Suburban and Tahoe from an interior design perspective.
I absolutely despise how manufacturers keep removing physical buttons from their vehicles. Like yes, let's take muscle memory out of driving, that's surely gonna make drivers less distracted.
Hey Google, tell me a joke!? Google..."You can't afford the payment on this suv, so get out!"
Thats not a joke tho haha
That’s not a joke
That’s a reality lol
And they took away the two lowest trims.
120 month loan - you got this!
@@Kahless00 They reduced the trims but they moved it all into selectable options, just get one with no options.
Yes the 6.2 is indeed tried and true.
GM has tried to fix the lifter issues for years and it’s true they’ve not been successful.
It also still requires premium fuel, adding insult to injury when feeding a 16 mpg SUV.
I’ve had two 6.2L Yukon Denali’s whose engines have both failed….one for main bearing, one for the lifter issue….Moved away from GM to Toyota Sequoia
I would never recommend anyone buy a GM vehicle with active or dynamic fuel management, whatever they call it now.

That screen is bigger than the one on Chevy Tahoe or Chevy Suburban..Also like ford explorer or f 150 and expedition all have big screens.

The tv’s in the middle of all these new vehicles has gotten out of hand. They look totally ridiculous and out of place.
Seems like they were trying to compete with Wagoneer with all the screens and rear screens
Would have preferred physical buttons for climate 100%!! This competition of who has the biggest screen is getting ridiculous.

At the end of the four years, if you don't need/want a new vehicle, you can keep it with a $12,000 Buyout from the lease company and THEN your accountant will make sure that business-expensed lease buy out will be only $9,840 USD during the current tax year!
Hopefully, your monthly contractor/construction/trades work gross income will be at least $6500 per month ($78,000 USD per year!) which means you will only be spending 22% of your income on a very nice, luxurious truck as your daily work driver and weekend family lakeside-cabin runner. After your mortgage (about $1950 per month), gas/diesel and the obligatory car+house insurance costs, you will still have enough monthly savings to put a small $200 per month stipend towards your 401k retirement plan and STILL be able to pay for internet, phone, streaming TV, utilities, taxes and a monthly family dinner out at Montana's Steak House!
There! I just did your "I'm living a Half-decent and Not Overly Strenuous Financial Life" financial plan for you!

@@StarGateSG7You can do a lot with 1750 a month. Purchase a rental property that makes you money. Invest in a business etc. Far better than putting it into a depreciating status symbol.
I like the 6 spoke wheels on the first one with 6 lug nuts. I hate when companies don't match the number of spokes to lugnuts or a multiple of it. Yes, I do have OCD.
LOVE the styling, especially the front. Oh and those darn headlights ❤️❤️❤️
It will only cost you 2 of the 3 children you wanted to haul around in it! But the wife will like her heated and cooled seat. Drive it like you own it until they repossess it!
So many poor negative people on here should just stop watching. Try sticking to kia videos
My wife and I test drove a 2024 Yukon Denali. We wanted to try an Ultimate with no luck. It sold. It is a smooth ride. But not smooth enough. The Toyota Sequoia our performs the Denali in every way. We went and test drove one for the second time in 1.5 years to refresh our memory of it. The first time was a Capestone , this time a Platinum which still out performed the Denali. With this ride we decided to buy gives you more bang for less money.
Again the Denali is a sweet ride.
5.3L Tried and true? With the lifter problem?
It is tried and true even with those issues....because the vast majority do not see these problems unless they are very abused...
Professional Grade GMC
🙌🇺🇸
Andre, you activated my Google Home when you said "Hey Google" 😂
She said "Why was the students report card wet?" "Because it was below C level.".
Biggest improvement on this truck? The gear shifter!! I hated the last one where it was buttons that had a goofy shape. The interior on these are very nice. I hope to be able to afford one in 10 years.
Its nice that they kept fog lights since many other vehicles don't even have them as an option.
Nice review. I really like the AT4 GMC Yukon Denali 2025.
Well done, Andre 👏
Oh well, it's just your grandkids' inheritance... now you can save money on lawyers, wills and probate by simply buying one of these new 2025 GMCs lol
Can you get a 2nd-row bench seat in the AT4 ultimate trim level?
That is the question
I like how Andre laughs before he says “boat ramp assist”. Does one really need assistance on a boat ramp? Lol
I have a 1998 GMT400 Yukon. Some years ago I never thought that I will say this: Definitely, if I am going to buy a 2007+ 4x4 , it will be a Suzuki Jimny or a Land Cruiser 70 Series, fortunately they are sold in my country, more inclined to the LC.
Is there a model with actual gauges and real switches? I don't want everything in my truck depending a LARGE Android tablet.
I like the interior! better than before.
Another detailed review by Andre !! GM I do not know who can afford these vehicles!
The AT4 is wonderful! Rounded the front grill area for better wind resistance!
That’s the 2027 Silverado interior most likely
I like the new style
Great review Andre.. thank you
😮😮 wow!! 😮😮 that design 🤤🤤👍👍
I 100% trust GMC electronics for reliability.
said no one ever...LOL
They're no worse than any other auto manufacturer.
GM builds the Biggest piles of garbage on the road
Toyota is in a big hurry to rise up and take that award.
@@toddbob55 Yeah I used to say that until the last couple Toyota trucks I had. The latest being a 2016 Tacoma that was the biggest pile of sh I have ever bought new off the dealer lot. Our Highlander needed a new engine at 90k miles after one of the cylinder walls developed a crack out of the blue and acted like it had a bad headgasket. Always dealer serviced and oil always changed early. Since then I had a 2019 Silverado that was perfect and reliable, even the 8-speed. Would have kept it but needed a trucked equipped for a higher tow rating.
No need for the new junk, love my old 6.0 Yukon 2500. 230k miles and going strong!
I wish I had a time machine. I'd go back and buy one before they were all ruined and neglected.
I personally feel that practicality will always surpass "New Tech or futuristic gear." GMC's 2024 denali interior looks better and more functional for the simple fact that it has physical buttons for the AC. It just seems that the infotainment center would distract your focus from the road too long to adjust the AC. But the good news is 2023 and 2024 models will drastically drop in price cause $100,000 for an SUV is just insane!!!
Growing up, I had pictures of Lamborghinis Ferraris and Aston Martin cars in my wall as an adult. I have a picture of a TRX raptor and possibly this Yukon now because it is beautiful cars I’ll never afford.
Where is the 4 pin trailer connector? Was it replaced with the camera connectors?
Love your video
Beautiful vehicle !😂, It is very sad, GM or dealerships make it where the average income person cant afford to pay $1,000 or more , bucks a month ! 😮, only catering to Rich 😂😂😂
Not a fan of those massive touchscreens, there is way to much tech involved with these new cars it’s crazy 😝
Get the extended warranty. And that applies to vehicles from any manufacturer with a bunch of tech in them.
О, диски от нивы урбан.
Stunning, Love it Way to go GM
So much better than the 2025 Chevy version. Awesome they hit the perfect sweet spot with this it’s not to basic like the Chevy but it’s also not to obnoxious like the Escalade.
That's the reason for GMC. Middle ground.
This looks like a chinese version of the previous version
Did they get rid of the center console drive selector and move it back to the column?
Get the SLT. You will still get most of the nice features.
Slt is out, elevation now.
I’m glad the Duramax is available, it’s a smart move.
Great review Andrea, super nice SUV but I do miss the 70's simplicity.
The vehicles of today will do everything you need, I can't imagine what they're come up with next.
They are missing the built-in smartphone lockable exterior-interior-accessible combo-fridge/freezer, built-in expresso/machine coffeemaker, one cubic foot combo microwave/convection oven, heated and chilled cup holders, built-in shortwave/starlink/VHF/UHF SDR-based long-range transceiver internet videophone/voice-call radios, 100,000 lumens retractible four-direction lightbars with user-selectable flashing or solid-colour lighting patterns in Bright White, NightEye Red, Safety Yellow, Pilot Car Orange, Partytime Deep Purple and Glowing Green, Thermal Nightvision Infrared and UV/Blacklight formats!
Add in the twin front and back 25,000 lbs winches, the full width and height bush bars front and rear with built-in fog lamps and DCI-8k resolution 360 degree surround-view thermal nightvision and RGB optical cameras at 120 fps frame capture rates.
Oh yeah! Also add a choice between the TWEEL-based airless no-flat polymer wheels or the DARPA shape-shifting wheels with in-cabin user-selectable round street or cleated-track configurations for deep winter snow and summer beach use!
Might as well add a 50 Kilowatt (50,000 WATTS!) on-board propane-powered super-quiet Ballard fuel cell generator with multiple 240V/30 amp and 50 amp AC plugs on all corners of the truck for running your home or RV during a blackout AND multiple welders, compressors, big tools, CNC machines, 3D printers, washing machines, dryers, etc at your campsite or worksite plus add multiple 120V/20 amp AC plugs for your home electronics and and multiple USB-4 Type A and C plugs and multiple 24V, 12V and 5V DC charger ports inside and outside the truck!
Is that enough for you in terms of luxury comforts to add to a truck or SUV?
Have they showed the XL version? If so, how much?
A spot for Arnold Schwarzenegger's commentary on the Predator's face
Is there a 4 pins connector for trailer somewhere?
Is this at the RenCen in downtown Detroit?
That tailgate feature will be great in a garage, lol
Absolutely beautiful yukon! GMC always setting the bar high!
If they brought back the column shift I might have to replace my 1999 Yukon.
Bro thats a big mistake. That yukon is gonna be worth money some day if its clean enough
Ehh it’s ok, pretty dirty since I use it as a farm truck.
love that front end
Gorgeous vehicle! Well done GMC.
Nice SUV but where has society arrived that Google has to tell jokes in the car?
Have they finally change the seats the previous generation had the most uncomfortable seats.
It would be helpful to see how Apple CarPlay functions in this new display. Curious if Google/GM have handicapped it like the current truck model 13.7” display
So they can include physical light controls on this but not on their trucks?
Looks only a mother could love 😂
Looking at the competitors, this doesn't look bad at all. Miles ahead of the 2025 Navigator with the styling cues Ford refuses to give up on.
Andre just activated my Google Home Mini and it told me some joke about a snowman having a meltdown...
I wish they would have made it at4x, id totally consider it if it has some sort of center or both front and read lockers
I feel the AT4 Ultimate is a waste of money....for that they could have introduced an AT4X with front and rear lockers , DSSV shocks and winch capability as well as more ground clearance....even an X31 trim below the AT4 would have been nice.
@@ramaswamynarayanaswamy4806 that's what I'm saying, I want a sierra HD at4x but I don't need a 3rd truck if the Yukon was AT4x id have all I need
What engines will available for the Denali?
The New truck will be looking very nice
Where is metal bumper around truck or at least stick out at front and back?which has to be on all cars the same
Hey Google, how many of these new tech features will break immediately after the warranty expires??
That's the real joke
I think they did a nice job updating the Yukon lineup for 2025. I also really appreciate them differentiating the Yukon further from the Suburban and Tahoe from an interior design perspective.
Gonna need those tow hooks for the ramp truck.
I could see you trade in your truck for one of these with the 3.0 Duramax of course
I absolutely despise how manufacturers keep removing physical buttons from their vehicles. Like yes, let's take muscle memory out of driving, that's surely gonna make drivers less distracted.
