We did notice some modifications, and the updated Yukon will include a roof fin antenna with a new design.
In addition, the front and back fascia’s have been redesigned as well, and GM’s Ultra Cruise automated driving system may soon be offering additional functions. In ninety-five percent of driving situations, this system will be superior than the present GM Super Cruise system.
2024 GMC Yukon Facelift
Despite its massive size, the 2024 GMC Yukon looks beautiful. Aesthetically, it’s quite sophisticated, giving off an air of both durability and opulence. The AT4 trim has an off-road demeanor owing to a revised front fascia that improves the vehicle’s approach angle, while the Denali variants seem more upscale.
The new Denali Ultimate comes with unique exterior features including dark “Vader Chrome” accents and custom 22-inch wheels. It’s also worth noting that, like the Ford Expedition, this model gives buyers the option between two alternative wheelbase lengths. The extended Yukon XL is bigger than the standard model thanks to a wheelbase that is 15 inches longer.
More Comfort
In 2024, the GMC will focus on With its three-row seating configuration, the Yukon’s cabin provides enough space for passengers and their belongings. If you still need more room after that, the company also offers an XL variant with a longer wheelbase. Folding down chairs increases storage space.
In the Yukon, it’s common to find seating for as many as eight people. If you get the bench seats up front, you can fit nine people, but if you get the captain’s chairs in the second row, you can only fit seven. The 10.2-inch display and wireless connectivity for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are standard features. There are also six USB connections, SiriusXM radio reception, and a digital gauge cluster with a 12-inch screen.
