2019 GMC Yukon XL SLT

The Yukon XL is GMC's biggest SUV, the long-wheelbase version of the Yukon that seats up to nine and swallows gear behind the third row. It drives like a big truck, with a commanding view and a ride that's more about comfort than sport, which suits its role as a family hauler. The cabin is roomy and quiet, with a huge cargo area behind the third row that makes it a practical choice for large families or road trips. Yukon XLs have a solid reputation for durability, though they're known for thirstier fuel use and some electrical gremlins as they age. The SLT splits the difference between the base SLE and the luxury Denali, giving you leather seats and a power liftgate without the Denali's premium price. Under the hood is a 6.2L I8 paired with a six-speed automatic and four-wheel drive, which moves the big SUV with authority but returns 16 mpg combined.
