2022 GMC Yukon XL SLT

The 2022 GMC Yukon XL is the extended-length version of GMC's full-size SUV, offering three rows of seating and class-leading cargo space for large families. It competes with the Chevrolet Suburban, Ford Expedition Max, and Cadillac Escalade ESV, though the Yukon XL distinguishes itself with a more rugged AT4 off-road trim. The Yukon XL drives with a commanding presence, and the available Magnetic Ride Control keeps body motion in check for a vehicle this size. Inside, the cabin offers upscale materials, available massaging front seats, and a power-folding third row that maximizes the already generous cargo area. Standard tech includes a 10.2-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus a suite of driver-assistance features across all trims. The SLT adds leather upholstery, heated front seats, and a larger infotainment screen over the base SLE, making it the popular middle trim for families wanting comfort without the Denali price. Its 5.3L V8 sends 355 horsepower through a ten-speed automatic and rear-wheel drive, which is enough for daily driving but feels less urgent than the Denali's 6.2L V8; expect 17 mpg combined.
