I absolutely love the fact that there isn't a 75 inch screen in there. Just big enough and simple to use, perfect. I cannot stand those massive pointless screens.
Great review! I used to have a Yukon Denali XL (an older model) and I would personally prefer this Denali over the Tahoe Premier and Escalade. The Tahoe Premiere does not seem as luxurious as the Yukon Denali because the Yukon Denali’s display is integrated in the dash, and the exterior looks a lot nicer in my opinion. Overall, I would choose the Yukon Denali over the Escalade and Tahoe.
The Hyundai also doesn’t have the level of quality. The cost of high end vehicles is not blind spot monitor or ventilated seats…you’re paying for quality, power and other bits of attention to detail you won’t get on a low end or mainstream vehicle
Very true. GM has a thing against ACC because it wasn't even available on the new for 2019 full-size trucks until recently. My old 2016 Ram 3500 had ACC. I get that they're full steam ahead on Super Cruise, but it is unacceptable for a $80K+ vehicle to have optional ACC.
@@mingli9563 lane keep assist is not why a car costs 80k. Anyone whose argument is “a 24k Hyundai has it” obviously has not driven a high end car… the high end car is getting you things and the feel that no low end 24k car will get you, regardless if that car has 1 option that the other isn’t giving you.
@Yes Sir I’m not referring to General Motors I’m referring to the price tag. Any vehicle that you’re paying that amount of money you’re not paying 80k just for lane keep assist. Broke people are always whining about high end car prices and using “my Nissan has [insert any option] for 25k and this 80k doesn’t have it” as an argument for comparing price tags.
I’d personally say I’d pay for a Yukon over a Tahoe (provided the money was there lol) but considering how good this is, I wouldn’t upgrade to an Escalade as I think the Yukon looks better! Great review and I love the new intro!😸😸
Surprisingly the escalade and the yukon denali are the same vehicle. Same chastise, same Frame, almost the same of everything. The only thing that is different is the name, the brand, and the make.
I always loved the Yukon Denali, it's not too common and basic as a Chevy Tahoe, but not too expensive and flashy as the Escalade. It's the perfect middle spot, between luxury and common use.
Good looking vehicle but I’d prefer the 18 inch wheels for ride comfort and functionality. Maybe 20s would be ok, but the obsession with big wheels has never made much sense to me.
@M0NSTERDj no issues. Actually, I like the Tahoe as well. Both exciting vehicles. I think you’ll be happy with either choice. Just the design is what you prefer.
Don’t want to poop on this video but you’ll be stunned to learn what the factory can’t fulfill. For example, forget about 4-way lumbar. They haven’t done that for over a year. Air suspension is also a good luck proposition. Your dealer will tell you what you can and can’t get and some options are only available when chipsets are ready to go.
I've always thought that the Yukon Denali was the sweet spot for the GM triplets. This model really shows it. It picks up where the last-gen Escalade left off, but even better. I think this is a far better purchase in terms of value than the Cadillac, and a much better buy in terms of luxury than the Tahoe High Country, which is just a couple thousand difference in price. Yes, you can get a MB GLS 450 or BMX X7 40i for the same price, but it will have less power, fewer amenities, less space, and less capability, with worse resale value. That said, buyers are left with a choice: Do you pay the $85K for a nearly loaded Yukon Denali(still can go to nearly $90K) or do you purchase the base Escalade, Series I Grand Wagoneer, or Navigator? Hmmm...
@Yes Sir The Germans will NOT kill this in amenities for $85K. In fact, the interior will likely have more plastic covered surfaces(dash, door uppers), etc. The GLS will have vinyl seating surfaces. The BMW's infotainment will be lagging. Furthermore their 3rd row seats are a joke compared to this. Sure, they may be somewhat more dynamically capable, but that is by sheer virtue of both the MB and BMW being significantly smaller. I'd also take this tried and true V8 over the 6cyls that that those rivsls offer at this price.
If you’re already approaching $80k on the Yukon, it would be stupid to not just go ahead and get the Escalade. The Jeep is ugly and the navigator looks like it’s made for old women
@@ZmannR2 but not everyone wants the garish style of the Escalade, nor the increased cost of ownership(maintenance and insurance). Plus, a base Escalade is a worse purchase in features than this Yukon. As for the Jeep, I find it cool to be sqaure...
3 year, 36,000 mile warranty for 85k vehicle! That just turned me off. I bought a CPO Cadillac in 2017 and the warranty just expired December 2022, and they gave me 1 year free oil change. Foreign Auto Companies are treating you much better.
I ordered mine a few weeks ago and was told today they aren’t offering the media system … is that correct? I can’t imagine for the price they wouldn’t offer that.
Depending on the time you order, various options become available or disappear due to the chip shortage. So it's entirely possible, though disappointing
Your bit about legroom mid & front @17+ minutes was a bit misleading. How about those of us that are 6'3" with long legs & a son that is also 6'3" & a daughter that's 5'11"?
With all my respect, GM nowadays quality is built in cheap down in Mexico 🇲🇽 with tons of problems ….. unless GM 2500 trucks and above are still built to last.
My wife has one of these as a demo,and it's a beautiful vehicle with that being said, the brakes are absolutely unsafe there's absolutely no stopping power, the Denali has just rolled over 2500 miles,also the engine ticks like crazy almost sounds like lifter noise? Other than those two things it's all luxury, l would not recommend someone hauling there family in one of these do to week brakes
Hopefully they offer the option to disable adaptive cruise control and run normal cruise control. I’m not a fan of my vehicle braking to maintain distance behind another vehicle. Kills gas mileage and brake pad and rotors.
I can definitely afford this but I don’t think any of these current SUVs are worth the prices they are being placed at. It’s very nice but I’ll wait 3 years and save 30-40K. But if this is what you like, Go for it!! It’s beautifully made just overwhelming overpriced.
100%. The car isn’t worth the price especially when it comes to materials and quality. We ended up buying a BMW X7 for $78,000. MSRP was $87,000. To get a bmw with much better materials but just a tad bit smaller for $7k less is quite the bargain
A lot of people get it wrong you buy a vehicle like this for towing and room and space and power not Mercedes or BMW I happen to own an 04 suburban and also a 14 Cadillac Escalade and escalate and I have never ran out of room and I tow my race car everywhere that's what you buy these vehicles for
Not worth it at all, depreciation on these beasts are crazy, GMC is getting too expensive, even in this Denali trim, looks absolutely beautiful but no wayyy!
I don’t get why General Motors makes the Yukon alongside the Suburban and Tahoe when they’re the exact same vehicle. If you want a luxury Suburban or Tahoe, then just get the Cadillac Escalade.
There’s a big gap between the interior of the Tahoe/Suburban to the Escalade. This is made to bridge that gap. Especially now that a loaded up Escalade is around $110,000 (MSRP not what they are selling for now unfortunately)
@@S58985 But couldn’t General Motors have simply bridged the gap by offering the Yukon Denali interior as an optional cockpit upgrade for the Suburban High Country and call it a day? That would make a lot more sense to bridge the gap between just the Suburban and Escalade instead of making another rebadged version of the same vehicle.
Mr. Pink it mostly has to do with brand recognition. GMC has been positioned as kind of a medium level luxury brand since the early 2000’s when the first Denali Yukon came out. I think more people buy it cause it’s a GMC and not a Chevy as crazy as that may sound
Good 👍 technology is a great idea and I hope 🙏 will be a good 👍 idea for the next time a new one positive and the quality of the world 🌎 is the best of all of my life for the information that I have to be on the new year and will be a good day 😀
I don’t think the comment about the 3rd row is accurate at all.. I know the expedition and navigation 3rd Row way better and way more roomy then Tahoe or Yukon

Escalade Isn’t much more $ but I think this looks better tbh
You're getting what you're paying for though.
You get what you paid for, there’s a reason why Yukon’s aren’t on the road as much.
All of the full size suvs are. Lol
@@WhatsTheT truth someone out there is paying $115k for Jeep Grand Wagoneer 😂😂💀
Having to option on adaptive cruise control on the high end model is unacceptable. Hyundais that cost a quarter of this have it standard.

Drove my Yukon for 188,000 miles with only one repair, the fuel pump at 12,000 miles. Top condition when I sold it.
Bet it was an 06 or earlier. The 07 and up are junk
BRO I LOVE YOUR NEW INTRO!!! You guys have progressed so much over the years
Thanks man! We like it too 😁
You should review every make and model. This was the most thorough review I’ve ever watched. You’ve convinced me to spend $90k on a new yukon!
Thank you! We try to review as many vehicles as humanly possible each year!

I kind of prefer the Tahoe interior more - in specific the way the screen is placed.

Good looking vehicle but I’d prefer the 18 inch wheels for ride comfort and functionality. Maybe 20s would be ok, but the obsession with big wheels has never made much sense to me.
Me neither. Worse mileage and worse ride.
I can’t wait!!! My truck should be here April 4
How is it?
CEO: How do we make this look more expensive?
Designers : Just add more chrome
CEO: Genius!
🤣🤣🤣😭
My first thought,,, the chrome grill looks terrible/cheap 😔.. first thing I would do is black it out.
Denali should have everything standard since it is the highest trim
People whining about the price lol you don’t need to get the top of the line model chill
I am one year late!! Also I still get one bro.
Why does chevy make the same truck 3 times?? Is there really a difference besides heated seats and led lights?
Why does the Sierra Denali have massage seats but not the Yukon Denali?
Hi Car Confections Can You Make 2022 Chevrolet Tahoe Premier
It’s the same SUV as this. So nothing changed besides some slight button placement and exterior styling. Same features as it’s the Chevy Denali
