2025 GMC Yukon
GMC Yukon - What's New for 2025?
Cosmetic updates for the 2025 GMC Yukon bring a modern and refined touch to its already commanding presence. The front fascia receives a fresh design, complete with a reimagined grille and updated headlight styling. Both the front and rear lighting elements now have the ability to play animations, adding a touch of flair to the Yukon's bold exterior. Making an even bigger statement are the new 24-inch wheels, which come standard on the Denali Ultimate and are available as an option for the regular Denali trim.
The trim lineup sees some exciting changes for 2025 as well. The new Elevation model replaces the previous SLE and SLT trims, offering a sleek and sporty vibe. For those seeking a combination of rugged capability and high-end luxury, the new AT4 Ultimate joins the ranks. This model builds on the off-road prowess of the AT4 while adding luxury features such as massaging front seats, full-grain leather upholstery across all three rows, and elegant open-pore-wood trim. Meanwhile, the Denali Ultimate now caters to those seeking the utmost in comfort with optional second-row executive seating and a premium 22-speaker Bose audio system.
Technology enhancements are also part of the Yukon's evolution. A new vertical 16.8-inch touchscreen infotainment system replaces the previous horizontal design, providing a more immersive and intuitive experience. GM’s night vision system, featuring thermal object detection, is a cutting-edge addition that enhances safety during nighttime driving. Performance enthusiasts will appreciate the updates to the available Duramax diesel 3.0-liter inline-six, which now delivers even more power while retaining its impressive fuel efficiency.
With these updates, the 2025 Yukon continues to strike a balance between bold design, advanced technology, and versatile performance. Whether you're after off-road capability, luxurious comfort, or cutting-edge tech, there's a Yukon model to meet your needs.

What truly elevates the 2025 Yukon, however, is its independent rear suspension—a significant improvement over the previous generation's solid axle. This design enhances ride quality and handling, making every journey smoother and more enjoyable for drivers and passengers alike. Inside, the Yukon’s cavernous cabin provides three rows of seating that comfortably accommodate up to eight passengers, along with ample cargo space designed to fit your lifestyle, whether you're hauling luggage, sports equipment, or groceries.
Customization is key with the Yukon, as it allows buyers to tailor their SUV to their needs and preferences. The lineup ranges from practical, well-equipped trims to the luxurious Denali and Denali Ultimate models, which add sophisticated materials, advanced technology, and a premium driving experience. Despite sharing some mechanical elements with the Cadillac Escalade, the Yukon carves out its own niche by offering a more approachable price point while maintaining high standards of comfort, style, and innovation.
For those who demand versatility, luxury, and capability in equal measure, the 2025 GMC Yukon stands ready to deliver. Explore the possibilities by visiting your local GMC dealer or designing your ideal Yukon online today.
Engine
All Yukon models come with a smooth-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission and offer rear- or all-wheel-drive configurations, ensuring flexibility to suit any driving preference. A significant usability update for 2025 is the move from dashboard-mounted gearshift buttons to a more intuitive steering column-mounted lever.
The off-road-focused AT4 model further amplifies the Yukon's capabilities. It boasts a two-speed transfer case, 20-inch wheels wrapped in all-terrain tires, and durable underbody skid plates. For tackling challenging terrain, the AT4 offers an optional air suspension system that provides up to two extra inches of ground clearance.
While each powertrain brings its own strengths, the diesel engine shines for its exceptional low-end torque and significantly better fuel efficiency, making it an excellent choice for those who need a capable and efficient SUV to handle the Yukon’s size and weight with ease.
Payload/Towing Capacity
The diesel engine offers a distinct advantage with its 495 pound-feet of torque—35 more than the largest V-8—and delivers peak torque at under 2000 rpm, making it an excellent choice for heavy loads and low-speed hauling. By comparison, the V-8 engines generate their maximum torque at higher revs. However, opting for all-wheel drive reduces towing capacities by 200 pounds across the board.
The Yukon is loaded with innovative towing tech to simplify the experience and enhance safety. The Transparent Trailer View feature virtually removes the physical trailer from the rear camera display, giving drivers a clear view of stationary objects behind it. A jackknife alert system helps prevent potentially hazardous trailer movements, while Blind Zone Steering Assist accounts for the trailer's length and provides haptic feedback through the steering wheel if another vehicle is detected in the blind spot.
With these capabilities and features, the Yukon proves itself a capable and confidence-inspiring partner for towing, whether you’re hauling recreational gear, a boat, or work equipment.
Fuel Efficiency
For those prioritizing efficiency, the diesel-powered Yukon stands out, delivering up to 21 mpg in the city and 27 mpg on the highway. However, these numbers could see slight adjustments following updates to the 2025 model.

Interior, Comfort, and Storage
Cargo capacity is a standout feature of the Yukon lineup. The standard Yukon boasts up to 133 cubic feet of cargo space with the second and third rows folded flat. Meanwhile, the larger Yukon XL takes it up a notch, offering an impressive 145 cubic feet of maximum cargo room. Even with all seats in use, the standard Yukon can accommodate six carry-on suitcases behind the third row. With the second and third rows stowed, it holds up to 35 carry-ons, proving that practicality and luxury can go hand in hand.
Technology and Infotainment
Luxury and convenience extend beyond the front seats, as the Yukon offers premium captain's chairs in the second row. The fanciest versions even include speakers integrated into the headrests, part of the immersive 22-speaker Bose sound system available on higher trims. Second-row passengers can further personalize their comfort with an optional 8.0-inch touchscreen that provides control over climate settings. For entertainment, an optional rear-seat system includes screens to keep passengers engaged on long journeys, making the Yukon as enjoyable for those in the back as it is for the driver.
