Why doesn't this vehicle get at least 29-32 mpg? Add the GM baby diesel for MPG and tow capacity. I do see trucks with a 7K lb weight that gets over 29mpg.
No it's a headache! I hate mine wish it was a column shifter. What do you do when the battery dies in the future because of a bad alternator, when tow truck comes you can't put into neutral. By the way there's a special sequence to go into "car wash mode" so you can enter a carwash in neutral because if you don't follow the sequence then the vehicle automatically shifts into park after a few seconds in neutral. Also it doesn't add for a "flowing dash" because that huge area it takes up could have been used for something else. What about when your backing up looking over your shoulder and you wanna go back into drive, before you slide column shifter down without looking at it... Now you have to look at the dash and find 'D' so annoying. I'm positive this will be eliminated in the next year or 2, my dealer told me it's his biggest headache complaint wise. Sadly I'm now stuck with this version
@@pacheco1805 Basically my perception of your complaint is that this shifter requires much more attention and focus from the driver than the column shifter ever did. I don’t see how that’s a bad thing. Maybe harder to be lazy with this shifter, but it’s much safer and it _does_ save space and allow for a cleaner flow of the dash layout. But most importantly it requires more attention than the column shifter. Perhaps another gateway to GM’s vision to zero, emissions and zero crashes. They want drivers to be more attentive as they operate these vehicles. Get used to it.
My biggest beef with the shifter is every review where I've seen the buttons pushed or pulled they are not quiet, especially when pulling up Reverse or Drive. They could do a much better job like Hyundai has done with the Palisade or Honda with it's vehicles.
I’ve watched quite a few reviews on this and yours is the best. You give information that the others did not even mention. Thank you and keep up the good work
I listened and watched twice...I think you have the most watchable review I've seen yet. "Knowledge is power"....I like the way you pepper your review with all kinds of important insights, and personal likes and dislikes backed up with a reason. The info comes out at a torrid pace, which is a good thing, sometimes I need to replay what I thought I just heard. I like the pace, the video keeps right up to the topic, everything keeps moving and there is no dead space. Also, YES!...the gear selector up on the dash bites!
Our new Denali has two more features: the second row seat has a strap when the seat back is lowered for entry. The strap is pulled so the butt end of the seat rises toward the ceiling for SUPER easy adult access to the third row seat. Also, beneath the passenger side bumper is a lighted emblem, GMC, that shines on the ground. When you have your keys with you and you kick your foot quickly over that emblem, the latchback opens automatically. Great for no hands needed when loading objects.
I liked how you spent the time to go over the features of the New yukon. There are a few things I did not like. You use one camera for the whole video. Because of that you have to put stock footage into the video which comes from the launch party. Your reviewing the Denali version but you mention the other trims during the review. Some of the times when you do the cut aways to the infotainment the video is showing you the SLT infotainment and the AT4. You also say in the video that all trims come with the trailering brake, that is not the case the trailering brake only comes with the trailering package no matter what trim you buy. The sliding center row console is also an option. You also say the truck goes up and down, that is only if you have the optional air suspension. That is not standard on any trim. Your Denali has the ultimate package which is an 11K package that you would have to put on the base Denali trim. Thanks
I think the reason the buttons are both push and pull is for safety. They want to avoid the unfortunate accident that happened with Jeep's push button transmission a few years back
The only problem I really have is that you are wrong about the engine options. You absolutely CAN get the 3.0 diesel in the Denali. You can get it in ANY trim level EXCEPT the AT4. The 6.2 gas engine is only available in the Denali.
Thank you so much for rating everything. Really helps to put things into perspective. On another note, have you reviewed the 2021 Toyota Highlander platinum hybrid yet? Thanks a ton!
People buying Escalade/Tahoe/Yukon are probably not overly concerned about fuel economy. They want luxury and a smooth ride for road trips. Push button shifter is new and a different learning curve. Much better than a lot of competitors putting a rotary electronic shifter on the center console…..dashboard mounting not only saves real estate for the important items….cup holders….. but also reduces the chance of someone accidentally spills liquid on the shifter….shorting it out…. Coffee, water etc…..and yes everyone will say they won’t spill anything…..even the ones sitting in the service bay waiting to find out how much a replacement shifter will cost. If your thinking you are missing out by not having wireless Charging…….your not……charging pad is in front of center console and even though mine was a post June model without WC….I counted about a dozen + ways that either the charging pad, phone and or both can be damaged. Auto stop probably dames more than a tablespoon but I agree……I don’t like it…. Fortunately for me, my build date was after the removal of Auto Stop….. I told my salesperson that I would have probably paid GM to remove the system. MPG numbers….at least numbers reported to EPA and publishers is 15/18/17 with SS and 16/20/18 without. I do like that they build the dashboard around the infotainment screen not the other way around. Comparably equipped Tahoe Premier …..$74K….Even High Country Tahoe is $79K Nice design and good features but the exclusivity is correct. They exclusivited me right out of the market and to Tahoe Premier. The $71 base MSRP of Denali is a lose to what I paid for the fully specced out Tahoe. Great review though and nice features. Yes I got a HUD….which is the only Denali Exclusive feature that I was after. And saved $10K…..and mine was in stock….not quite but only two days out. Every GMC dealer in my area was showing presold or “In Transit….some with unknown ETA’s Almost time to switch over to 2022 MY production and some local dealers are just getting stock for retail sale, not fleet, not pre sold etc…. Mine was technically Pre Sold but to me and only presold for about one day.
I have always been a Ford girl but I prefer this full size SUV to the Ford Expedition's appearance. Our lease is up this summer and we are looking at all the suv options out there.
@@nancy8269 Like every cars there’s issues! I do a lot of the replacement / Maintenance myself. I save a lot by doing it. I recently replaced my fuel injectors that’s the only thing I have so far. Besides doing regular oil changes, brakes, and takes good care of it. Runs good going up the mountain and in the city. I did a minor upgrade to mine. K&N air induction and Corsa exhaust system. I had 77k miles on my right now. Loved it for my family and joy rides.
the 2nd row seats fold all the way up, not just down as you showed. if you pull that same lever again that folds it down it will automatically flip up and forward against the back of the front seats so you can get to the third row easily.
Only thing missing is a fully digital gauge cluster...its already available in other GMC models so idk why they didnt make it standard in the Yukon Denali
I love the vehicle but I absolutely hate the shifting push button system. In my opinion that is actually harder to get used to then the standard shift gear bar near the steering wheel or the hand shifter near the middle console in other vehicles.
On the 2nd row, if you pull seat bar second time, seat will go up, so you can walk in to 3rd row... This feature also was available in previous generation
Been on the fence for the duramax… wish you would share in your vids about the +/~ for it…or against. Even some “diesel” experts on youtube say STAY AWAY from d’s unless you are towing… too much maintenance.
We wanted to get a new Yukon, but we were told no more adjustable pedals. My wife is 5' 4" and can't drive comfortably without the pedals and the adjustable steering wheel.
Just ordered one of these a couple months ago but after test drive did not like stiffness of suspension, nor did we like seats so declined to accept. Looking for something that is easier to get into, very nice seats for bad backs & comfortable suspension. Currently have a GMC Yukon 2015 with 40,000 miles. But now older in our 70’s with bad backs. Should we try a Volvo 90. We like larger SUV’s as suspension usually is more cushioned. Any suggestions?
is Denali worth the extra cost ? made in the same plant as a base fleet ls Tahoe, any extra hand craftmanship the z71 is my. choice can't wait for the diesel
Denali……..”Go big or go home”……. For the visibility from the drivers seat…….good commanding view and comfortable seating…… As for close quarters parking spaces……underground parking and drive thrus….. “Like trying to park a 747 into a glass of water” There are two major items on the Denali that I wish were available on the SLT……even as options…..5.3 and HUD…… Sliding center console is nice but I probably wouldn’t think of a control switch on the overhead panel. Believe it or not that is one item I would be fine with manual operation of the sliding part of the center console. The rear wiper hidden asp reduces risk ot car wash brushes getting caught in the wiper… arm/blade. For those of you with smaller or lower garages make a note. I do like that you can set the rear lift gate 3/4 instead of all the way…..reduces risk of the lift gate opening into the garage door. I had a rental Yukon XL a couple of years ago and raised the 2/4 with power and manually raised the lift gate the rest of the way. I do like the separate glass and lift gate…for small items you can reach through the glass. Especially in North Texas with the high driveway slopes. I was initially adamant on the Jet Black interior but now that I see the Dark Walnut/Dark Ash Grey is starting to grow on me. Make a note of current models….four major items removed due to the global semi conductor chip shortage. 1. Auto Stop/Start……that I lke, hell I would pay GM $50 to get rid of that junk. 2. Dynamic Fuel Management…..(shuts down four cylinders during steady spate cruising speed. 3. Wireless Charging pad 4. Steering Column electronic lock….. Grrrr hat I am not sure about since it is a theft prevention feature. I would ditch some of the convenience features like power folding seats, sliding center console, etc……to keep another layer of theft prevention. Power running boards could go for now since the standard vehicle is fixed running boards.
you did seemingly miss one thing about the second row seats, tho i'm not sure if this is in all packages, all trims, they, whilst the back is down, can tilt/flip up from the floor too, for even easier access to the 3rd row.
The Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban, the GMC Yukon and Yukon XL, and the Cadillac Escalade account for 50% of all large SUV sales in the US. GM makes 340,000 of them every year and exports about 80,000 to 31 countries. They’re made in GM’s plant in Arlington, Texas, which is said to be the most profitable assembly plant in the world. We estimate they generate $20 billion in revenue for GM and about $4 billion in profits. Autoline Daily.
Any info available on how the receiver hitch cover is attached to the bumper? Hoping for an improvement to my current model which is the flimsy inadequate pegs that insert twist and supposedly hold cover in place. Rigid tabs at top break off and pegs fall out too. This resulted in my losing not one but two EXPENSIVE to replace covers. So sure hoping some re-engineering has taken place on that design.
Nice but don't like the indash gear selecter,should be in the center console & no it doesn't take up usable storage space when designed right! Kudos for the interior quality and ergonomics finally meets the upscale market! Steep price makes it costly for "average" buyers but baller status for sure!
Car Coach Reports - you can absolutely get the Diesel in the Denali - it’s actually a LOWER cost option (-$1500) than the 6.2L V-8. You can’t get the diesel in the AT4 trim (for 2021, at least).
Пневмо подвеска, какой ход имеет на подъём и на снижение? На подъём у Вас указано 2 дюйма, это максимально? И на снижение сколько от среднего значения?
Translation to English: Air suspension, what is the upward and downward travel? Your lift is 2 inches, is that the maximum? And how much from the average?
The Air Ride Adaptive Suspension has automatic load-leveling and up to 4 inches (100 mm) of ride-height adjustment. It can lower to make it easier to enter and exit the vehicle and lower automatically on the highway to improve aerodynamics and fuel efficiency. Drivers also can raise ride height in off-road conditions for more ground clearance.
The K5 automatic level control module controls the system functions and monitors the suspension system for proper operation. In addition to the driver-selected ride height, the control module uses the following vehicle parameters to establish a target ride height: vehicle speed lateral acceleration longitudinal acceleration throttle position cruise control status transmission range selection status stability control system status semi-active damping system status vehicle power mode suspension position sensors air spring pressures
What happens if you accidentally push the park button while driving, is there a safety feature that locks it out to prevent damage to transmission. If there is I like, if not I don't care for it. A nice shifter in the center would be nice and not the column shifter like my past generation Denali
Yes there is a safety feature. This has been well thought out by GM. To change to reverse, park, etc, you have to depress the brakes and then engage the transmission.
Purchased the 2022 GMC Yukon Denali over purchasing one of the European competitors. The digital dash and Google maps are a nice upgrade over the 2021. I understand GLS and X7 are large and more practical as the Domestic competition is “excessively large.” Nevertheless, I traded in a Range Rover TD6 as one major issue, I would assume I could fit a lot into the Rover; However, then the sloping roofline would show its ugly side and wouldn’t fit large objects from hardware/furniture/electronic stores. Also, the European models would deprecate heavily after the warranty would expire, whereas the domestic products hold the value better. I understand the higher quality image European models bring. However, once those European competitors become four years old it loses so much money and parts are becoming increasingly problematic during these supply chain problems.
Man I have to say, this SUV is pretty darn sharp and has some cool features! I wouldn't consider an SUV this big for my needs, but I really like it!!
Super baby
Supet
Can you afford it?
Why doesn't this vehicle get at least 29-32 mpg? Add the GM baby diesel for MPG and tow capacity. I do see trucks with a 7K lb weight that gets over 29mpg.
Good question. I agree
One of the best reviews I’ve see so far, great job!
Thank you so much 😊
Why do you keep showing pictures and videos of the AT4 during a review of the Denali?
Whenever I see her standing beside a vehicle, I know this will be an excellent review. The numbering system she has begun to use is extremely helpful.
Thank you so much!
Gear shifter is simple, modern, it works every time, it allows for a nice flowing dash design up top, and more space down below. GMC did a great job.
GMC has really improved their line up. Push button shifter is a personal choice.

Really beautiful truck!! Thanks for this awesome review 😎
Glad you liked it!
This Denali is the best and sexiest SUV out in the entire SUV segment.
As for shifter I prefer a column mounted shift lever, but every manufacturer is going with buttons or knobs, so it seems the trend of future.
I agree, they are looking to clean up the shifter. Thanks for your input.
I think the reason the buttons are both push and pull is for safety. They want to avoid the unfortunate accident that happened with Jeep's push button transmission a few years back
@@ma7mgte I agree but they could have made them more luxurious and operate more quietly.
The new GM triplets are clearly the best big SUVs on the market. It is not even close.

For shifting just press the button how hard is that ?
This GMC Denali or the Lincoln Navigator? looking to trade in my 2016 Sequoia Platinum.
Personally I prefer the Lincoln, inventory , pricing and insurance are things to consider as well.

GMC vehicle Build website shows optional Duramax Diesel engine for the 21' Denali...Your video says not available.. which is it??
it is not available in the AT4. It is available in all other trims, including the Denali
Correct
Great job, I’m buying it.
What a great review!
Thank you kindly!
I ordered a Denali with a Diesel. It’ll be here in two weeks. GMC already called me to tell me it’s being built.
You are going to love the diesel torque. Let us know how much you enjoy it.
Any info available on how the receiver hitch cover is attached to the bumper? Hoping for an improvement to my current model which is the flimsy inadequate pegs that insert twist and supposedly hold cover in place. Rigid tabs at top break off and pegs fall out too. This resulted in my losing not one but two EXPENSIVE to replace covers. So sure hoping some re-engineering has taken place on that design.
The class 3 hitch was welded to the frame as is should be based on ASE specifications.
Question is about the COVER....not the hitch. Please re-read comment. Poorly designed system on previous year's models.
What's the longevity and reliability on this truck?
What is "4 up, 4 down or 2"? Right at 15:15.

Hoping that GMC upgrades “lane keeping” to ‘lane centering” for the 2022 my.
How tall are you for reference? The 6.2 and 3.0 diesel have the same amount of torque by the way 460).

Nice but don't like the indash gear selecter,should be in the center console & no it doesn't take up usable storage space when designed right! Kudos for the interior quality and ergonomics finally meets the upscale market! Steep price makes it costly for "average" buyers but baller status for sure!
Love
Pulls for drive,nutr,reverse
Very informative. Thx
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Great reviews.
I wish you could have shown the actual use of the gear selection. That seemed very confusing to me
Its very simple to use
You said class 3 but should be a class IV tow hitch?
You CAN get the 3.0 diesel and it DOESN’T take 300ft to stop from 60...it takes less than half that.
True but not in the Denali, sadly
Car Coach Reports - you can absolutely get the Diesel in the Denali - it’s actually a LOWER cost option (-$1500) than the 6.2L V-8. You can’t get the diesel in the AT4 trim (for 2021, at least).
I have checked GMC’s website under build and price, and it does offer the 3.0 Diesel for the Denali.
great review wow!
Пневмо подвеска, какой ход имеет на подъём и на снижение? На подъём у Вас указано 2 дюйма, это максимально? И на снижение сколько от среднего значения?
Translation to English: Air suspension, what is the upward and downward travel? Your lift is 2 inches, is that the maximum? And how much from the average?
The Air Ride Adaptive Suspension has automatic load-leveling and up to 4 inches (100 mm) of ride-height adjustment. It can lower to make it easier to enter and exit the vehicle and lower automatically on the highway to improve aerodynamics and fuel efficiency. Drivers also can raise ride height in off-road conditions for more ground clearance.
The K5 automatic level control module controls the system functions and monitors the suspension system for proper operation. In addition to the driver-selected ride height, the control module uses the following vehicle parameters to establish a target ride height:
vehicle speed
lateral acceleration
longitudinal acceleration
throttle position
cruise control status
transmission range selection status
stability control system status
semi-active damping system status
vehicle power mode
suspension position sensors
air spring pressures
@@CarCoachReports Спасибо!!!
WOW..
I SAW THAT INCLUSIVE PUSH AT THE END.
Cadillac Escalade got the cool shifter, so why didn’t the Denali didn’t get it? I’m leary about the push button shifter.
You should be they suck! I have one, and don't care for it.
M.J. Madsen Wow that’s gotta really suck! GM should have did a lot more testing before putting them in the vehicles!
What happens if you accidentally push the park button while driving, is there a safety feature that locks it out to prevent damage to transmission. If there is I like, if not I don't care for it. A nice shifter in the center would be nice and not the column shifter like my past generation Denali
Yes there is a safety feature. This has been well thought out by GM. To change to reverse, park, etc, you have to depress the brakes and then engage the transmission.
Yes moms drive them... because they have money and taste. Rappers and presidents also rock SUVs like this
🤣🤣
Beautiful
Purchased the 2022 GMC Yukon Denali over purchasing one of the European competitors. The digital dash and Google maps are a nice upgrade over the 2021. I understand GLS and X7 are large and more practical as the Domestic competition is “excessively large.” Nevertheless, I traded in a Range Rover TD6 as one major issue, I would assume I could fit a lot into the Rover; However, then the sloping roofline would show its ugly side and wouldn’t fit large objects from hardware/furniture/electronic stores. Also, the European models would deprecate heavily after the warranty would expire, whereas the domestic products hold the value better. I understand the higher quality image European models bring. However, once those European competitors become four years old it loses so much money and parts are becoming increasingly problematic during these supply chain problems.
Да, тачка the best
Невероятно красивый цвет!
Russian translation: Incredibly beautiful color!
Your showing a white AT4 in the video. Not the Denali. There's a big difference.
