2023 GMC Yukon Exterior

Families that want an over-the-top SUV are already choosing the Yukon, but the Yukon Denali Ultimate trim brings the exterior profile to a whole new level. Rather than go for a brighter look with more chrome features, the Denali Ultimate has a darker, more elegant exterior than other trims. When you choose the Yukon Denali Unlimited trim, you also get the 22-inch, seven-spoke, ultra-bright machine-cut wheels with chrome accents and dark paint that make the SUV feel larger than life.

The 2023 Denali Ultimate has an impressive profile, measuring 210 inches long, standing 76.5 inches tall, and offering an axle ratio of 3.23. Other exterior features include the Denali Ultimate Vader accents, lower front fascia chrome details, and fog lamps. The 2023 Yukon Denali Ultimate comes in colors including Onyx Black, Summit White, Redwood Metallic, Midnight Blue, White Frost Tricoat, Pearl Beige Metallic, Sterling Metallic, Volcanic Red Tintcoat, Frost Pine Metallic, and Titanium Rush Metallic.

2023 GMC Yukon Interior

One major difference between the Denali Ultimate and other trims is the Alpine Umber interior, which elevates the luxury and comfort within the cabin. Every seat in the Denali Ultimate is wrapped in full-grain leather, which is accented by quilted inserts and contrast stitching. The interior for the 2023 Yukon Denali Ultimate comes in colors including Teak with Light Shale, Very Dark Ash Gray with Dark Walnut, and Jet Black.

For the driver, a heated steering wheel and 16-way power front seat with heating, ventilation, and massaging features help you stay comfortable during long drives. Second-row passengers can also take advantage of heated seats in this trim level. The panoramic sunroof helps you let in more light, create a more expansive interior, and see breathtaking views no matter where you are. The sunroof also comes with tilt-sliding dual panes and express sunshades so you can control how much light you want to let in.

Whether you’re loading the Denali Ultimate up with gear or passengers, you’ll have plenty of room. The Yukon Denali Ultimate comes with seating for up to seven passengers, a maximum cargo capacity of 122.9 cubic feet, and more than 34.9 inches of legroom for each passenger, with the front row passengers getting up to 44.5 inches of legroom. This trim doesn’t just offer plenty of space for passengers and cargo, it also has room for your personal items. Between the driver and passenger’s seat is a power-sliding console that moves up to 10 inches to provide you with space for your sunglasses, cords, and wallet.

2023 GMC Yukon Technology

A 10.2-inch premium infotainment system with built-in Google and an 18-speaker Bose premium sound system help the driver enjoy their music, podcasts, and navigation with the touch of a button. There are also six USB ports, two 110-volt outlets, one 12-volt outlet, and a wireless charging pad so you can keep all your devices powered up when you’re on the go.

Passengers in the back seat also get to take advantage of the Denali Ultimate’s tech, with dual rear-seat media touch screens that offer an in-flight experience to those in the back seat. Using the 12.6-inch screens, you can watch movies, stream videos, and even connect gaming devices for the best entertainment experience. You can also connect the screens to Bluetooth headphones, so each passenger can keep their media to themselves.

2023 GMC Yukon Performance

With a 6.2-liter V-8 engine that offers up to 420 horsepower and 460 lbs of torque, you can go anywhere and tow anything with the Yukon Denali Ultimate. It has a 10-speed transmission and gets up to 14 miles per gallon in the city and 20 miles per gallon on the highway. If you’re someone who likes to tow, you can also outfit the Denali Ultimate with the ProGrade Trailering System, a feature from GMC that helps you monitor your blind spots, the area behind the trailer, and the hitch.

Available Super Cruise for the Denali Ultimate makes it hands-free on more than 200,000 roads in the United States and Canada. Not only does this include automatic speed control, but it also includes brand-new features like automatic lane changing. The active response driving system and air suspension provide you with more clearance and make it easy to tackle even the toughest of terrains in your Yukon.

2023 GMC Yukon Safety

When it comes to safety, the Yukon Denali Ultimate brings everything GMC has, including a whole suite of exterior cameras that offer more than 13 different views.
