Exploring the 2025 Yukon: Upgrades, Performance, and Technology
The 2025 GMC Yukon continues to refine its presence as a leader in the full-size SUV segment. For Ontario families and professionals who value space, strength, and sophistication, this model delivers all three in a bold new package. While the GMC maintains much of its established formula, this year brings carefully tuned updates that enhance performance, connectivity, and style.
Among the most notable changes for 2025 are updated grille designs, revised lighting elements, and small adjustments to trim configurations. These visual refinements elevate the GMC’s already commanding road presence and help further distinguish models like the Denali and AT4.
Smarter Screens and Seamless Tech
Its cabin now features GMC’s largest-ever infotainment system. Most 2025 trims come equipped with a 16.8-inch premium infotainment system paired with an 11-inch digital driver cluster—both housed under a single, curved panel. This setup provides more screen real estate, improved resolution, and a cleaner interface, making it especially helpful when navigating unfamiliar Ontario roads or accessing Apple CarPlay and Android Auto wirelessly.
Additional updates include enhanced voice control, faster system response, and built-in Google integration, enabling you to manage navigation, music, and calls without needing to reach for your phone. Higher trims offer a premium Bose® sound system, multiple USB-C charging ports, and available rear media screens—making long road trips feel a little shorter.
Exterior Design with Professional Grade Details
From the outside, the 2025 model retains its strong, square proportions but with sharper edges and trim-specific details that create a more pronounced visual impact. Trims like the AT4 lean into an off-road-ready aesthetic with darkened finishes and an aggressive stance, while the Denali Ultimate offers high-end touches, such as chrome accents and 20-inch wheels.
LED lighting is now more pronounced across all models, offering better visibility during those long, dim winter evenings common across Canada. A range of new exterior colours also gives buyers more ways to personalize the look.
Room to Relax, Space to Stow
Inside the cabin, it still offers one of the largest and most flexible interiors in the segment. Seating for up to eight second-row captain’s chairs and fold-flat third-row seats means you can adapt quickly from passenger mode to cargo-hauling mode. Materials have also been upgraded for 2025, with soft-touch finishes and premium stitching more widely available across trims.
The Yukon’s expansive cargo space, which can hold up to 4,091 litres, makes it ideal for both busy family routines and outdoor adventures, whether you’re loading hockey gear, camping supplies, or heading to cottage country.
Reliable Power with Options for Everyone
Under the hood, SUV buyers still have three engine choices to suit different needs. The standard 5.3-litre V8 delivers a balanced mix of performance and economy, while the available 6.2-litre V8 boosts output to 420 hp. For those seeking torque and efficiency, the 3.0-litre Duramax Turbo-Diesel remains a strong contender, especially for long-distance Canadian drives or towing up to 8,400 lbs.
All engines pair with a smooth ten-speed automatic transmission and can be configured with 4WD, making it just as ready for snow-packed roads as summer highways.
Safety That Matches the Size
Standard safety tech includes Forward Collision Warning, Automatic Emergency Braking, and Lane Keep Assist. Optional systems, such as HD Surround Vision, Rear Pedestrian Alert, and Super Cruise™ hands-free driving, further enhance peace of mind. These features helped to earn strong safety ratings and contribute to its reputation as a reliable family haulier.
The 2025 GMC Denali has earned a spot on the prestigious Wards 10 Best Interior and UX Awards list, joining other standout GM vehicles and top models worldwide. This recognition highlights its exceptional design and user experience, further cementing its reputation as one of Canada’s leading large SUVs.
