Quick Look

The 2014 GMC Yukon XL is a fine alternative to the standard version – but only for those in need of a huge, tuck-like vehicle. Those who want a smaller crossover-like family car, like the Traverse or Acadia, should go with one, because this beast is huge. Its 6.2-litre V8 engine is just as beastly, however, producing the impressive 403 horsepower, so there’s plenty of power for those who need it!



Full Review

The 2014 GMC Yukon XL is unlikely to bring GM its top profits, even less so than the regular version, but it’s still a fantastic option for both families and businesses. So, if you’re in need of a truck-like crossover that offers plenty of towing and hauling capability, then this is the vehicle you should check out. If, on the other hand, you’re looking for a more car-like crossover, like the Traverse, then definitely stay away from this one, because this thing is a beast!

With its tall profile and walls of stiff metal, the base Yukon is a pretty imposing vehicle. But if you put it right next to the Yukon XL model, the standard-length version will drown in its majesty. At 222.4 inches long, the XL provides additional 20 inches to the Yukon's already hefty size. The GMC Yukon sits about nine inches of above ground, so it’s not surprising to see standard assist steps to help passengers get inside.

On the inside, the GMC Yukon XL can fit in almost nine passengers, using up three rows of seats. That said, most car buyers will opt for the more accommodating eight-passenger setup of two bucket seats as opposed to a three-person bench. The setup also allows the driver and front passenger to access the large centre console more easily. In terms of space, there’s plenty of legroom in the second row, but the third-row legroom in regular-length models is much more restrictive. So, if you need to carry adults in the third row often, the Yukon XL is a much more appealing vehicle for that.

The new GMC Yukon offers a selection of two V8 engines. The base one is a 5.3-litre that produces 320 horsepower. The Denali versions get the 6.2-litre engine that yields the impressive 403 horsepower. The maximum tow rating is 8,500 pounds with the former engine, while the latter one can only pull 8,300 pounds. On top of that, four-wheel-drive models can’t pull as much as two-wheel-drive options. The best news is that both engines use regular gasoline and have the ability to run on an E85 gasoline/ethanol blend.

Ultimately, the 2014 GMC Yukon XL is a vehicle that’s meant to transport a lot of people in comfort. If you don’t care for the comfort of your passengers or need to even drive many people, then you can probably get away with purchasing the Acadia. But if you have kids or worse – grownup kids – then we recommend checking this one out.

Power and Performance:

A 320-horsepower, 5.3-liter V-8 coupled to a six-speed automatic is the powertrain combination for most of the Yukon lineup. As such, the Yukon and Yukon XL have strong acceleration, with a smooth, responsive transmission. A 403-hp, 6.2-liter V-8 is optional on the larger Yukon XL, and it's the choice for those who plan to tow frequently. It makes the Yukon even quicker and has a deep muscle-car exhaust note, but even with cylinder deactivation technology its fuel economy is unimpressive.

The 15/21-mpg rating earned by the standard Yukon is unremarkable compared to other SUVs its size. Yukon models with this engine are also E85 (85-percent ethanol) compatible; but when you fuel up with ethanol you'll get an EPA-estimated 11 mpg city, 16 highway. Gas mileage drops to 14/18 mpg, or 13/18 mpg with all-wheel drive, when you upgrade to the 6.2-liter V-8 on XL versions and the Denali. The Yukon Hybrid has been discontinued for the short 2014 model year, but it's unclear if it will return with the revamped 2015 edition.

Interiors and Special Features:

The 2014 GMC Yukon XL can carry up to nine passengers across three rows of seats. Most buyers, however, will opt for the more comfortable 8-passenger setup of two bucket seats in front instead of a 3-person bench. With the more popular setup, the driver and front passenger also have easy access to a large, convenient center console. The Yukon's big and blocky exterior equals interior space that could command rent in New York City. There is ample legroom in the second row, though 3rd-row legroom in regular-length models is much tighter.

Originally appeared on Kelley Blue Book.

Safety features:

The GMC Yukon XL has a strong reputation for safety, and it's backed up with a solid set of features plus some excellent crash-test scores.

The Yukon has earned five stars for both frontal and side impact from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), but because it's such a tall vehicle the mathematically derived rollover test pushes its overall score to four stars. Otherwise, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety hasn't tested the current Yukon.

Dual front, side, and curtain airbags that cover all rows of seats; traction and stability control; and the OnStar safety and concierge system are all standard in the Yukon.

Outward visibility is quite good for an SUV, although shorter drivers might have issue when parking or changing lanes. On the options list, there are blind-spot detectors, parking sensors, and a rearview camera.
