I like this interior better than the Ultimate Denali to be honest. The black interior goes well with the car. The only thing that I hate about both models is the paywall on the Super Cruise system. It is like buying a mobile phone and being able to use the camera only if you have a subscription. this is ridiculous...
I think of it as almost paying for a streaming service. It gives you access to all of the roads and highways already mapped out like the movies and shows that have already came out. Then the new mapping and roads are like movies coming out soon. I don’t necessarily agree with it I just see where they are coming from.
Yup we don’t need more subscriptions in our lives acting as leeches taking our hard earned money on a monthly/annual basis. I bought the car, that should be it. Stop nickel and diming the consumer
I am also trying to decide between this AT4 Ultimate and the Grand Wagoneer. I like the Grand Wagoneer (especially the way they approach the interior) although the rear cargo door styling of the Grand Wagoneer bothers me. I don't like the sluggish and buggy Google Android operating system which GM uses for their center console display. They each have their pros and cons.
Can you get the AT4 Ultimate trim with a 2nd-row bench seat? I don't get why they force captains chairs on certain trims. Shouldn't they offer both as different people have different needs on how many seats they need.
Joe, I'm glad you got a chance to talk to the General Motors Truck Company people about positioning the running boards so that we can get some kind of a feel for the dynamics of what's going on here. Great job today bringing us these vehicles in their secret location.
Is there a comparison somewhere of what is missing from the GMC Yukon AT4 Ultimate vs. the Denali Ultimate trim level? I would like to max out the trim level, but I like the extra off road capabilities.
This AT4 Ultimate is so bad-ass! This will be my next SUV but on the GMC website you can configure this vehicle with performance air intake, performance exhaust and red Brembo brakes which I'll be getting. Thanks for the review! 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
I wanted this specific version of Yukon to come out! I'M SO HAPPY IT DID 🤩. Although, I thought it was gonna be called AT4X, instead of AT4 Ultimate 😂. But makes sense.
Just a suggestion, maybe when pricing isn’t available yet you could include the previous years msrp for a similar package.. just so we have a general ballpark or can make a guesstimate lol please!
Looks awesome except for that two layer dashboard, option to the Yukon Denali or Cadillac Escalade (hopefully slightly cheaper price also) as it doesn't have as much bling as those others.
I might buy one, because I frequently go on long distance drives for ski trips. Sometimes I like to explore dirt roads along the way. I like being able to continue on the journey during heavy snow storms, when it is hard to see road boundaries. I like the extra protection for road debris on these long drives.
Raiti, you missed the most important part of the Yukon review.... Did GM get rid of the push button shifter, or did they revert back to a column shifter? ...I have a 22' Redwood Metallic Yukon AT4, and I love mine. I lifted it and put 24x14 wide wheels on it, but I love the aggressive offroad look.
@@w4rmgun Nope... I've been spoiled with the push button shifter. It gives me peace of mind from worrying about any mechanical malfunctioning with a column shifter. Plus the button shifter is great for lefties who like to keep their hand on the wheel.
I love everything except the gloss black on the front. Looks way out of place to me. I hope they have an option to change that because I love the AT4 in dark grey.
I would like to have an at4 Ultimate Loaded 7 passenger. The only items I don't want is the twin Panama sunroof . I've had a lot of sunroof break on all models. I don't like sunroof Don't care for sunroof s I don't want the power deployable.Running boards just regular solid running boards But everything else I want the air suspension towing the Hud everything
Best full-size hands down. Wish GMC gets rid of the steering wheel shifter and go back to the chonky shifter keep the automatic paddles. If I can rip the passenger touch screens to save a couple Gs I’ll do it. My kids don’t need all that. They might have it already but a rear locking diff for emergencies with a few auxiliaries. This is not a definitive off road but those features are pretty essential If they do those things that in the next lineup it would be perfect and with the luxury provide something nobody has.
The rear seat entertainment in the Denali ultimate is what kept me from purchasing one. Only blue tooth capable. No IR or direct plug-in available. I see they haven’t changed it. Also, numerous reviews about GM RSE states it’s a “nightmare”. Wish the Yukon AT4 ultimate had an option for no RSE. Love everything else about it. Cannot purchase with the terrible comments online.
I’m 15 and can’t afford this Lol. But I’m only watching it cuz rati. Can’t wait for the 2025 Lincoln navigator video tho. I really like fords. I’m probably going to get a civic as my first car. Getting my permit rn so yeah. Thanks Mr rati
It would be awesome if you guys could start adding some text (bullets) in the video when talking about specifications. At the very least, in the description. Key figures like Engine Displacement, Drive train, Transmission, HP/Torque, Fuel Efficiency, Price, etc. You guys seem like you're running a 2-4 person operation, but a little video editing and production would go a long way in enhancing the videos. Anyways, just a friendly suggestion. Cheers!
na, that would cramp Joe's "free flowing style," that's been working! Keep it the way is JR, "it ant broke dont fix it." Appreciate your far & wide travel's to bring us the goods!
The Grand Wagoneer stinks as a Grand Wagoneer. It's OK as a stereotypical SUV, but pretty lame otherwise. The GMC Yukon looks great though. It's a great move in design. Thanks for the fantastic review Joe!
I do not have confidence in cars that have all the DIFFERENCE lock and 4H, 4L buttons via the touch screen, what if screen Broken or broken during off-road driving and high vibration on desert roads
Well *( way over my budget) : always found “” GMC VEHICLES “” a better Vehicle Pack: & , did buy my 2007 CANYON SL/ Loaded new(* actually my first/ only Traditional Truck !)….oddly great.
GMC should be proud. They're doing a good job with their trucks.
I am os glad that you are digging this one.

@@RaitisRides this or new nissan armada;
Your videos are literally the best out there. Thank you!
Best SUV in the segment
I totally agree with for you!
From the infotainment systems, the seats, these new cars are like mobile luxury apartment!
You are so very right about that one,. Rick!
It might be what people are going to be living at the rate rent is now a days 😂
@@kennethsmith6899 ,,,Yea, people in NYC and still save a penny!
Facts
This is an awesome SUV and I would certainly choose it over the Wagoneer.
I am also trying to decide between this AT4 Ultimate and the Grand Wagoneer. I like the Grand Wagoneer (especially the way they approach the interior) although the rear cargo door styling of the Grand Wagoneer bothers me. I don't like the sluggish and buggy Google Android operating system which GM uses for their center console display. They each have their pros and cons.
Awesome vehicle. Nice to see GMC knocking it out of the park. Thank you for your videos Joe.
Can you get the AT4 Ultimate trim with a 2nd-row bench seat? I don't get why they force captains chairs on certain trims. Shouldn't they offer both as different people have different needs on how many seats they need.
Totally agree, the second row bench should 100% be an option on all trim levels!
You could get a 4x4 SLT trim and put your own lift kit and wheels on it and get your bench seat and not have to deal with the air ride suspension
My dad will definitely get this car
Your dad has great taste!
This is so nice!! I love the Yukon AT4 a lot.
Always loved your reviews 🔥 keep up the great work
Thank you my friuend for being so supportive!
Joe, I'm glad you got a chance to talk to the General Motors Truck Company people about positioning the running boards so that we can get some kind of a feel for the dynamics of what's going on here. Great job today bringing us these vehicles in their secret location.
That is so awesome of you to say! I am so glad that I got the access to bring it to you!
Personal opinion…This main screen is straight out of Fords playbook. I love that panorama screen across the dash like the Tahoe and Escalade.
ford was just glued to the dash and way up on the dashboard.
Except as usual GM did it alot better. Im yet to be impressed by a Ford interior tbh...one of their biggest weaknesses
GM just can’t let go of the shiny plastics, they should have used the open pore wood on the center console. I’m glad the diesel is now available
Is there a comparison somewhere of what is missing from the GMC Yukon AT4 Ultimate vs. the Denali Ultimate trim level? I would like to max out the trim level, but I like the extra off road capabilities.
Same! That would be great!
love that color, I would pick this over the Denali Ultimate any day.
This is definitely the one I'd go with if I decided to buy a Yukon
To be fairness, the GMC Yukon refresh for 2025 is amazing to look at for.🙌🏻💯 Like this Joe:).
This AT4 Ultimate is so bad-ass! This will be my next SUV but on the GMC website you can configure this vehicle with performance air intake, performance exhaust and red Brembo brakes which I'll be getting. Thanks for the review! 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
Which 2025 interior was more comfortable to sit in: the Tahoe, Yukon, or Escalade for 2025?
Did they have the base model here? This is absolutely gorgeous but the base one is probably pretty snazzy too for a little lower price lol
Love your reviews, sir. Amazing job again. God bless.
I wanted this specific version of Yukon to come out! I'M SO HAPPY IT DID 🤩. Although, I thought it was gonna be called AT4X, instead of AT4 Ultimate 😂. But makes sense.
The AT4 Yukon XL is my next vehicle
The edges of the seat controls are silver trim, and I feel that this small detail really giving this car more luxurious.
Joe and Lori and Steve keep up the good work real true and I love the video 👍
Thank brother man!
How comfortable are the front seats? How do they compare to the denali?
Just a suggestion, maybe when pricing isn’t available yet you could include the previous years msrp for a similar package.. just so we have a general ballpark or can make a guesstimate lol please!
@@Limatola11 I’d guess 73k for a 25’ base AT4, all the way up to 85-88k decked home run like this.
Does anyone know when GM is releasing the build date and pricing for the new Yukon refresh? I heard Oct 1st, 2024 but I'm not sure...
I ordered mine about an hour ago…
love the vids..... question.,.. did you see any RGB ambient lighting in this thing? My 2023 Denali does not... cant find the info!!! Thanks!
Yes, Denali ultimate at4 but with a bench seat for the second row I hope they make it. I will buy it
Looks awesome except for that two layer dashboard, option to the Yukon Denali or Cadillac Escalade (hopefully slightly cheaper price also) as it doesn't have as much bling as those others.
I still don’t understand GM not wanting to add a head restraint to the middle seats in these full size suvs.
Viva GMC!
Yes sir Luis!
@@RaitisRides Thanks
But did they fix the lifter problems in the engine?🤨🤔
Great looking truck. I doubt many would be taken off road.
Only to the mall parking lot!
I might buy one, because I frequently go on long distance drives for ski trips. Sometimes I like to explore dirt roads along the way. I like being able to continue on the journey during heavy snow storms, when it is hard to see road boundaries. I like the extra protection for road debris on these long drives.
Im liking the new at4 ultimate. Love ur videos
Will this trim be on the Yukon XL as well?

You can see around 11:40 they went back to a column shifter thankfully

Great video. I wonder if this is the AT4 or the AT4 ultimate, he needs to mention it in the video.
It looks so good !!!
Joe do you have a review of the traverse z71 ? Or did I miss that one ….
Thanks Lori. Thanks Joe.
Gmc trucks are underrated
I love everything except the gloss black on the front. Looks way out of place to me. I hope they have an option to change that because I love the AT4 in dark grey.
That is a very good point!
Do you know what is the estimated MPG for this SUV? Thanks
Love the recommendation of kids reading a book. Great review.
Lets go Joe! Wasnt expecting another GMC Yukon drop.
I like to bring the surprises Anthony!
I like it……love the wheels ! Did Oscar make the trip or is he home eating all the Twinkie’s ? 🤣🐕
Oh trust me he was at home and definitely ate all of the twinkies!
I would like to have an at4 Ultimate
Loaded 7 passenger.
The only items I don't want is the twin Panama sunroof . I've had a lot of sunroof break on all models. I don't like sunroof Don't care for sunroof s
I don't want the power deployable.Running boards just regular solid running boards
But everything else I want the air suspension towing the Hud everything
Does it come with Auto-Hold brake ?
The Twinkie and Ham Sandwich had be rolling lol😂
Thanks Ric for letting me share the laughs and the SUVs with you!

Just ...wow👍👍👍👍👍👍
I will probably go for the AT4 with an LZ0 as I don't need, or want the rear seat entertainment or Super Cruise.
Is the everyday drive comfort better on the Denali ultimate?
I am going to say yes. Stay tuned for the first drive happening soon.
The Jeep Grand Cherokee makes you feel like you're in the battlefield.😂😂😂
You are hilarious!
Now that the new models are out I might finally be able to afford the previous model 😢
It looks really nice so far
GMC did a fantastic Job!

When you say more efficient does that mean better gas mileage? I'm referring to the diesel 3.0
Yes that is exactly spot on.
@@RaitisRides hooray!
This suv have rear locker diferencial?
Chevy Off-road version is cheaper would be cool if Cadillac escalade had a Off-road version v series is the best.
Love your car video
You are the best!
@@RaitisRides Welcome
Shout out Lori, for filming the AT4 Ultimate.
When are cars going to have a built in Twinkie maker
💥FIYYYAAAAAHHHHH❗️
I am so glad that you are digging this one Arthur!
0:51 you mean SLE and SLT
Good call man!
Z71 / Z66
Better name than AT4
GMC All Day 🙌🇺🇸
Is this the ultimate Bronco killer? RIP Ford Bronco.
Not to sure about that!
Missed opportunity for an integrated panini press on top of the dash ....
I like the way that you think!
Let’s see what it’s all about!
I think you might be imopressed!
I’m 15 and can’t afford this Lol. But I’m only watching it cuz rati. Can’t wait for the 2025 Lincoln navigator video tho. I really like fords. I’m probably going to get a civic as my first car. Getting my permit rn so yeah. Thanks Mr rati
I would get a ranger but they’re pretty expensive.
Can. I. Have. An. All- black. Interior. ? Width. Must be. 82.4 inches. Without. Side mirror. Can. I. Increase. My. Ground clearance. To. 6. Inches?
Plus. Red. Exterior 👍👍👍👍👍👍

@@RickMentore That means the world Rick! I appreciate you having my back!
It's about time they upgraded the brakes on these giant suvs
The Grand Wagoneer stinks as a Grand Wagoneer. It's OK as a stereotypical SUV, but pretty lame otherwise. The GMC Yukon looks great though. It's a great move in design. Thanks for the fantastic review Joe!
Not a fan of piano black or auto deployable running boards. Since it’s an AT4 I hope it comes with e-lockers.
I know how you feel! Gloss black is not =my thing wither.
It is a beauty.
I am so glad that you are liking this one Omar.
I might be dreaming too hard but I would love to see the AT4 ultimate on the Acadia for 2025
didnt show the cargo
Love the vehicle, but not going to lie, that info screen is way to *intrusive* . Talk about an eye magnet.
I do not have confidence in cars that have all the DIFFERENCE lock and 4H, 4L buttons via the touch screen, what if screen Broken or broken during off-road driving and high vibration on desert roads
Difference? Give it up
That thing is nice.
I am so glad that you approve Nicholas.
Your Watch?
It is a Casio G-Shock Michal!
@@RaitisRides thx!
so GM is reducing the lower priced models?
Goals
Oh heck yeah!
It compares with the Ford Expedition Timberline
Well *( way over my budget) : always found “” GMC VEHICLES “” a better Vehicle Pack: & , did buy my 2007 CANYON SL/ Loaded new(* actually my first/ only Traditional Truck !)….oddly great.
Fantastica ❤
The price of this thing will probably be the same as a home for a a family of 4 20 years ago
I think you may be right!
Nice ❤❤❤
Eventually new steering wheel. No to big screen display.
The Denali looks better in my opinion
That is the one that I would go with,.
I'm sure it gets 5 miles a gallon.... lol.. price starts at 65k - 105k.
Is it 4WD ?!
Of course it is!
When I win the lottery
Niceeee
I am so glad that you approve Anthony!
If you have to ask, you can’t afford it.
If you care about a price increase year over year, you def can't afford it. Get used to it
