GMC Unveils 2025 Yukon: Refreshed Design, Enhanced Technology, and New AT4 Ultimate Trim

GMC has just lifted the veil on the highly anticipated 2025 Yukon, a flagship SUV that’s poised to elevate the standards of luxury, technology, and capability in its class. With significant upgrades across the board, the new Yukon is set to deliver a driving experience that seamlessly blends rugged performance with refined comfort.

One of the standout features in the 2025 Yukon is the impressive 16.8-inch diagonal Premium GMC Infotainment Center. This vertical display serves as the vehicle’s command hub, letting drivers easily navigate maps, control audio, check vehicle diagnostics, and more—all through a sleek, user-friendly interface. Passengers in the back haven’t been forgotten either, with an available 8-inch diagonal rear climate control touchscreen ensuring everyone stays comfortable.

The exterior of the new Yukon has been given a bold makeover, featuring unique grille patterns, animated headlamps and taillamps, and an optional panoramic sunroof that floods the cabin with natural light. These design elements contribute to a look that’s both powerful and polished, making sure the Yukon turns heads wherever it goes.

Duncan Aldred, Global Vice President of Buick and GMC, shared his excitement about the new model: "We’re redefining expectations for our flagship SUV, and the introduction of the AT4 Ultimate trim perfectly combines rugged capability with luxurious refinement."

On the subject of trims, the 2025 Yukon debuts the first-ever AT4 Ultimate, marking the fifth anniversary of GMC’s AT4 sub-brand. This new trim level merges off-road capability with upscale features, including a front skid plate, 20-inch all-terrain tires, and an elegant Obsidian Rush interior with full-grain leather seats.

For those who crave the ultimate in luxury, the Denali Ultimate trim is a must-see. It comes with exclusive 24-inch wheels featuring laser-etched designs, executive seating in the second row, and a Bose Performance Series sound system with up to 22 speakers, ensuring every journey is an experience.

Under the hood, the 2025 Yukon is ready to impress. The available 6.2L V8 engine packs a punch with 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque. If efficiency is a priority without compromising power, the 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel engine offers 305 horsepower and a hefty 495 lb-ft of torque.

Safety is a top priority in the new Yukon, with the addition of Night Vision technology and a comprehensive suite of driver assistance features. From Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking to Intersection Automatic Emergency Braking, the Yukon is equipped to keep you and your passengers safe in a variety of driving conditions.

For towing enthusiasts, the 2025 Yukon doesn’t disappoint. It boasts a towing capacity of up to 8,400 lbs., along with advanced trailering technologies like Transparent Trailer View and Trailer Tire Health Monitoring. The available Super Cruise feature even allows for hands-free driving on compatible roads, with coverage expected to expand to about 1.2 million km in the U.S. and Canada by late 2025.

Production of the 2025 GMC Yukon is set to begin at the Arlington Assembly plant in Texas, with the SUV expected to be available by the end of 2024. While pricing details are still under wraps, the impressive lineup of features and innovations suggests that the new Yukon will offer great value for those in the market for a luxury SUV.
