2021 GMC Yukon makes international debut
Posted by Zaran Tarapore on Jan 19, 2020
The GMC Yukon and GMC Yukon XL are popular cars in the Middle East region for the space and practicality they offer to long-distance commuters. The fifth-generation models make their international debut, ramping up style and technology to cater to a larger, more discerning audience.
“GMC Yukon is the full-size premium SUV that’s made to be used,” said Duncan Aldred, vice president of Global Buick and GMC. “The new Yukon delivers what customers value most – premium features, purposeful technology and all-terrain capability.”
The 2021 Yukon lineup is headlined by an all-new and more upscale Denali and the first-ever Yukon AT4, taking the Yukon into the premium off-road space. In addition to an all-new interior design, the Yukon sports a center console refrigerator, nine cameras along the bodywork, and a class-leading 15-inch heads-up display.
The most powerful engine in the full-size SUV segment, an all-new 6.2L V8 with Dynamic Fuel Management (standard on Denali) delivers an estimated 420 horsepower, paired with a standard 10-speed transmission. To enhance its performance off-road, the Yukon also comes fitted with four-corner Air Ride Adaptive Suspension which lifts the vehicle 2 inches (50mm) when travelling in 4WD LO mode.
We can expect the all-new GMC Yukon to make its Middle East debut by the end of the year.
