2021 GMC Yukon Denali Review: For the unassuming executive | CarGurus 

Car Gurus should consider themselves lucky to have this young man reviewing new vehicles. He's knowledgeable, professional and polite. Great job. Fantastic review. Keep up the great work.

This guy is so calm. It’s oddly comforting.

Thank you brother.. You always do a great job you and your team with giving accurate and real world testing with helping consumers with their purchase selection.

I’ve had a Terrain Denali for 2 years with the button shifters. Love them. It frees up space and they’re super convenient when you get used to them. After stepping down to the Terrain from an Acadia when they changed the Acadia I think I’m wanting to jump up to this Yukon now.

The shifter in this SUV ROCKS!!!! I love it, I have had mine Yukon for 4 months and it is so easy to use and mostly I love that the shifter is out of the way. Great SUV with an extremely comfortable ride.

Magnificent vehicle. This is what old Lincoln Town cars used to be. Superb and beautiful and worth every penny if you can find them on dealer lots. Mostly unobtanium right now. They are sold off the delivery trucks.

I have a 2021 Yukon Denali with the brown and beige interior and I love it! I think it’s better than my 2020 Lincoln Navigator! Definitely a good pick

Just bought me a 2023 Denali with the 3.0 Diesel engine and I love everything about it!

Great presentation ....#love GMC

Great GMC Denali and review. 👍👍👍👍👍

love mine, simply love it. The ride is unreal. I have the black on black. The contrasting metal inside is nice for me. Now that I have gotten used to the transmission shifter, o my its Awesome. You will love it after driving it for a while. No leaver is the way to go.

Beauitul large SUV Great video review

This truck is all around awesome..beautiful...haters gonna hate...well they gonna be real mad at me and about 6weeks are less I'll be the proud owner of one...2021 Yukon denali cayenne red jet black interior rocks 💕💋

You reference not being able to wirelessly charge your phone since your phone does not have wireless capability, but can you use a usb cable in the Denali to charge your phone wired? And can you get a mobile hotspot for the Denali?

That interior/exterior color combination is on point!

Great review

The Description of who buys this is spot on. My next car in July. I want tan interior I stead of black. I like the transmission shift buttons

It’s the best review ever

I love the shifter buttons on this new Denali. Very cool. Very smart. And a huge space savings. I love the fold and drop to flat seats. Very nice touch. The dash is a great design. The grill is too big. It looks stupid, not attractive. If you’re going to spend this much money, I don’t know why you wouldn’t just spring for an Escalade. They both say the same thing in terms of message, and the Cadillac is just a nicer space to be in for very little more money.

Love the sweater

I liked your review.

I love it going to get it

I'm getting an XL in a week I can't wait I'm drooling all over my pillow

Nailed the intro, Escalade is too bling/flashy for me, suburban too boring. Love my Yukon and low key dealer!

The light tan on Wendy's frosty interior color is the best interior color literally ever! It's worth the $15,000 premium over the regular Yukon and Tahoes.

No road test??

I drove the one with the Diesel engine with turbo charge it is awesome. I drove it what a thrill!🤗🤗🤗🤗

Love the look, hate the shifter buttons

Took me about 5 minutes to get used to the buttons to engage D, R, N and P.

Nice 👍

Alot of us prefer the column shifter, we've seen to many other manufacturers FAIL with that electronic shifter, and the price for the fully loaded 1 is over $90k, thats too much GMC

I have the Denali in the Diesel engine. On road trips I get an average of 26.6 mpg.

Matt, drive this to your next high school reunion and watch all the former jocks fight over who buys you your first drink.

sorry i want to ask. is it true or fraud if at tik toll i get a gift from gmc 2021 denali

Can you do the Tahoe vs the Yukon please

Not having a shifter is WHY I wouldn't but it. I don't trust the realiable of button shifter

I miss the column shift!

That's a right tonka

That is SOOOO me, the low-key stunner. I've arrived...(But Quietly)...😐

I hate that transmission shifter

I have a fully loaded GMC AT-4 2021 and so many problems with electronic radar couple times didn’t crash 💥:( GPS don’t work :( SD Card not reading:( Cruise control sometimes not working temporarily disengaged :( Auto highbeams keep blinding people when there’s no car turns off when there’s a car turns on :( Cameras sometimes it’s gray sometimes is blue sometimes don’t work :( Parking sensors :( Auto CarPlay not reading 80% Charging ports not charging :( Screen sometimes shuts off sometimes it’s smaller sometimes freezers :( Anything it’s electronic piece of garbage shame on GM :( GMC technology to pee on :( junk , Just imagine to drive itself it’s gonna kill everybody :( I won’t trust GM Technology :( Special full electron is it going to be even worse :( It’s not just my truck my brother used to have Chevy same problem with electronic :( GM don’t have brain to design electronic or they have too much and they designer and purpose to rape customers off

If you think that massive front grill is unassuming, i think you need to read the dictionary pal

Shooting for 2027 when I pick one of these up

Only if the Yukon Denali had SuperCruise….

Can’t wait till the 2022 Yukon Denali XL comes out. That’s the one I’ll buy

No it’s for the executive who wears a cowboy hat boots and carries his hunting or fishing 🎣 gear everywhere for outdoor business meetings

We have had two vehicles (used) in this Class, a Suburban and a Yukon XL., both reasonable vehicles. This comment is especially interesting to me, because I never thought we would own such a large vehicle, but we had a Tow requirement they fit the Bill. We now have a Mercedes Benz GL 450 to Tow with. Having said all this, I have to say that I find the current offering from GM very disappointing! Sadly, I was hoping for a more realistic vehicle! Instead, they gave us an OVERSIZED vehicle that is just light a Big Gulp Coke, which nobody needs, or a Vehicle that looks like its a Baby Monster Truck. At first I was glad to see the optional 3.0 Liter Duramax Diesel, but when I learned Isuzu Truck/Diesel didn't have anything to do with this engine, unlike the 6.6 Duramax, I became very spectacle! My worst fears came true when I learned that GM builds the engine near Detroit and the some Italian company actually designed it! I am a "Doubting Thomas" at this point in time! Overall, I think these vehicles are way to BIG and COSTLY!! However, I'll still curious.

Call me when they put the 6.6 Duramax in it.

These need to be Hybridized

The Denali is really not a niche market. Where I live in New England, the only car more ubiquitous than a GMC Denali is an old Subaru.

SUV, nota car.

Lol he said this is alot of metal 🤣. More like alot of plastic.

if you can afford that vehicle you're not worried at all about gas mileage.

You can slide those seats forward or back?!! Holy crap guy, that's bloody amazing!

Size of a school bus

The worst thing about this truck is the most noticeable thing about this truck. That ugly grill.

Yukon Denali is for the 1%er who thinks an S Class doesn't have a large enough carbon footprint.

I’d take an armada over this any day

14/19/16... That's gross 😂

Looks better than Escalade

Nothing low-key about the grille. Either GMC is a "luxury" brand or it isn't. Cadillac is too "pimped out" of a brand.

Who in their right mind would pay $80,000+ for a General Motors product? PT Barnum was right.

price will drop by half in 2 yrs

Zzzzzzzzzz review

Dear followers!! Don't let the beautiful pictures confuse you . Anyone who buys a new car from GENERAL Motors the chance you threw your money into the trash is very large. In this company there is no customer service, the company's management does not care at all, if you have a problem or a malfunction, you can only pray to God there is a chance that the help will come faster. GM is a very dangerous company, be careful and keep your money safe.!!!Share so more people don't get screwed.GM is a big bluff

Nothing unassuming about the gaudy maw of this truck. Merc GLS 450 is the better buy.

Poorly written. The Yukon Denali is the smart man's Escalade. And it more attractive than the Tahoe/Suburban.

A gas sucking dinosaur of a vehicle. Gee I wonder why no one is making anything like this?

All GM vehicles look terrible they all look like large cargo vans with LED lights not a very handsome looking vehicle at all this one or any other

I’m sorry but in my opinion all American/GM vehicles look like crap they all look like large box fans with LED lights
