For GMC Yukon lovers around Fenton and beyond, the GMC Yukon and the GMC Yukon XLare both exceptional sport utility vehicles (SUVs) as far as handling and performance, space and comfort, and technology and media are concerned. While its carrying capacities are on par with the competition, its luxuriousness conveys a sense of well-being.
Performance
They offer a choice of two gas-powered engines and one that runs on diesel. Towing potential depends on the engine and whether the four-wheel drive system is in place. Both models offer a 10-speed transmission system and can achieve zero to 60 in about six seconds. Furthermore, each can tow over 8,000 pounds in and around Flushing.
Length
The biggest difference between the Yukon and Yukon XL is their respective lengths. Swartz Creek drivers can notice a longer wheelbase in the XL than in the Yukon. Although each can fit up to eight passengers, cargo space is more abundant in the XL, which offers 145 cubic feet of territory for baggage and freight - with all the seats collapsed - compared to 122.9 cubic feet in the standard Yukon. Another example of the XL's spaciousness is more legroom for third-row passengers: 36.7 inches in the Yukon XL over the nearly 35 inches in the Yukon. This is a real benefit on extended road trips away from Flint.
