For decades, the Yukon has been a legendary fixture in the American auto industry, offering space, comfort, and capability in a full-size SUV package. Now, the 2025 GMC Yukon is exciting a new generation of drivers with its premium features, trio of engine options, and spacious comfort, offering a big SUV and bigger choices.
Common Features in All Trims
While all Yukon trim levels feature either a 5.3-liter V8 or a 6.2-liter V8 as standard equipment, there’s an optional 3.0-liter Duramax turbo diesel available in each trim. The interior dimensions of the Yukon also remain unchanged across trims, with three rows of seating that can accommodate eight passengers and a 25.5-cubic-foot cargo area that expands to 122.5 cubic feet of volume when the two rear rows are stowed.
Elevation
The base trim Elevation is loaded with exciting features. It’s built around the 5.3-liter V8 that generates 355 horsepower and 383 foot-pounds of torque. It’s matched with a 2WD drivetrain and a 10-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission. Other standard features include animated LED headlamps with IntelliBeam, a Bose CenterPoint Surround 10-speaker sound system, Rainsense wipers, and 20-inch wheels.
AT4
Built for the rigors of off-road driving, the AT4 has enhanced all-terrain capability. Like the Elevation, it also features the 5.3-liter V8 and 10-speed automatic transmission. Unlike the Elevation, the AT4 has a 4WD drivetrain. Off-road-friendly features in the AT4 trim include a front skid plate, 20-inch wheels and all-terrain tires, an active dampening suspension, and hill descent control.
Denali
For drivers seeking capability alongside elevated features, the Denali is the perfect trim. Beneath the hood, it has a powerful 6.2-liter V8 that delivers 420 horsepower and 460 foot-pounds of torque to a 10-speed automatic transmission and 2WD drivetrain. Its standard features include 20-inch alloy wheels and all-season tires, a power-sliding center console, and a power tilt and telescoping steering column.
AT4 Ultimate
With peak off-road capability, the AT4 Ultimate can conquer any obstacle on the road or beyond the pavement. It shares the powertrain and standard features with the AT4 trim, but adds amenities like a rear seat entertainment system, power massaging front seats, a power panoramic sunroof, an adaptive air ride suspension, the Super Cruise driver assistance system, and a Bose Performance Series CenterPoint 18-speaker audio system.
Denali Ultimate
The Denali Ultimate offers premium features and top-shelf capability. For example, its standard features include the Max Trailering System, which features smart trailer integration, hitch view, an extra capacity cooling system, and hill descent control. It also has a 4WD drivetrain, 2-speed active transfer case, 24-inch wheels and all-season tires, and premium leather surfaces throughout the cabin.
