Featuring even more third-row legroom and cargo volume than the impressive Yukon, the 2025 GMC Yukon XL is built for families that want all the cabin space they can get. This behemoth of a full-size SUV also packs a powerful engine, a host of luxury-grade amenities, and a modern infotainment system.
Ample Space to Stretch
With a well-spaced seating layout that accommodates up to eight, the Yukon XL ensures no one feels cramped. Passengers are treated to 44.5 inches of legroom in the front, 42 inches in the second row, and 36.7 inches in the third row. Additionally, there are 42.3 inches of headroom in the front, 38.9 inches in the second row, and 38.2 inches in the third row.
The AT4 Ultimate and Denali Ultimate trims offer an alternative seating layout that replaces the second-row bench seats with captain’s chairs. This drops the maximum seating capacity to seven in exchange for more luxurious seating.
Plenty of Room for Luggage
The Yukon XL comes with a much longer body than the base Yukon, which enables it to haul more cargo than most full-size SUVs. Opening the standard AutoSense power liftgate, which makes loading and unloading easier, reveals a 41.5-cubic-foot cargo area. That’s more space than most families need for storing luggage. If you need to haul furniture or similar large items, folding the second and third-row seats increases the cargo volume to 144.5 cubic feet.
Home Comforts on the Road
A host of luxury-grade comforts and technologies are packed into the Yukon XL’s enormous cabin, ensuring passengers feel right at home. The entry-level Elevation model offers 8-way power-adjustable, heated, ventilated, and massaging front seats and heated rear seats. Tri-zone automatic climate control lets front and second-row occupants set their own preferred temperatures. Other standard in-cabin amenities include wireless smartphone charging, USB charging ports, cupholders in all three rows, and a Bose CenterPoint Surround 10-speaker system.
For entertainment, a 16.8-inch diagonal Premium GMC Infotainment System is standard. It comes with Google Built-in, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, SiriusXM, and countless other features.
Muscle to Tow Heavy Loads
The Yukon XL tows a staggering 8,100 lbs when properly equipped, making the SUV an ideal choice if you regularly tow boats or trailers loaded with ATVs. Its impressive capabilities are powered by a 5.3L V8 engine that cranks out 355 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque. A 10-speed automatic transmission manages power delivery, improving efficiency and eliminating the need for mundane clutch work when navigating cities.
