Preview of the 2023 Yukon Denali Ultimate | Steve Austin’s
If you’re in the market for both upscale luxury and family-friendly versatility, look no further than the 2023 GMC Yukon Denali Ultimate. This brand-new range-topping model builds upon the Yukon Denali’s top-of-the-line amenities, adding a wealth of technologies and comfort features. Here’s a look at how it raises the bar.
Powertrain and capability
This new range-topping model boasts two dynamic powertrain options. It comes standard with a beastly 6.2-liter V8 engine that delivers 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque. You can also opt for the available Duramax® 3.0-liter Turbo-Diesel, which churns out 277 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque. Both of these dynamos pair with a smooth-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission that strikes a balance between efficiency and thrilling performance.
In addition to its capable powertrain options, the Yukon Denali Ultimate provides a refined ride thanks to its standard Air Ride Adaptive Suspension and Magnetic Ride Control. You’ll also enjoy a confident driving experience in every season — it comes standard with Active Response 4WD™ system, which works together with the electronic limited-slip differential and an Auto Track two-speed transfer case to provide optimal traction in every season.
Interior comforts
The Yukon Denali has long reigned as the pinnacle of luxury in the GMC lineup. The Yukon Denali Ultimate takes that to the next level with a bevy of exclusive amenities. Unwind on your daily commute with the new 16-way power front seats with built-in massage functionality. You can also spice up your drive with the brand’s first-ever 18-speaker Bose® Performance Series audio system, complete with front row head restraint-embedded speakers. The Yukon Denali Ultimate even puts a stylish twist on this premium sound system — it features elegant etched speaker grilles that fit right in with the model’s elaborate design.
Ornate speaker grilles are far from the only refined feature you’ll find in the cabin. The dashboard sports genuine open-pore Paldao woodgrain trim, laser-etched with the topography of Mount Denali. It’s complemented by real metal accents and authentic Umber full-grain leather upholstery.
Advanced infotainment technology
Staying connected is easier than ever when you’re behind the wheel of the GMC Yukon Denali Ultimate. A 10.2-inch infotainment touch-screen display is the crowning jewel of the ergonomically designed center stack. The latest version of the GMC Infotainment System boasts Google Built-In. This smartphone-like interface puts Google Assistant, Google Play, and Google Maps right at your fingertips. You can even use natural voice commands to adjust your climate control settings, send texts, listen to music, get directions, and more. And much like the Denali trim level, it’s expected to come standard with smartphone connectivity, so you can access your favorite podcasts, playlists, and audiobooks when you’re on the road.
Intelligent driver-assist tools
Driving is safer and easier when you’re behind the wheel of the Yukon Denali Ultimate. Thanks to the 15-inch diagonal head-up display, it’s a breeze to view critical driving information, like your speed and navigation instructions, without ever taking your eyes off the road. Even long highway drives are a snap with trailering-capable Super Cruise. This innovative tech tool enables you to enjoy a hands-free ride on over 200,000 miles of compatible roads in the United States and Canada — even if you’ve got a trailer in tow. This advanced system can even change lanes without assistance. And on top of all that, the Yukon Denali Ultimate offers plenty of peace of mind thanks to standard features like the GMC Pro Safety bundle of driver-assist technologies.
The Yukon Denali Ultimate will hit dealer lots this fall. Don’t miss out on your chance to experience top-of-the-line luxury — reserve yours today at Steve Austin’s Auto Group in Bellefontaine, Ohio.
