“Despite its modern convenience features, the 2021 Yukon retains its indomitable off-road credentials,” said Luay Al Shurafa, President and Managing Director, General Motors, Africa and Middle East. “Designed all-new from the ground up, we are confident the all-new Yukon range will exceed customer expectations and continue to dominate the roads like never before,” he added.

For 2021, the Denali’s signature Galvano chrome grille is larger and more detailed. GMC says the grille features over 10,000 individual reflective surfaces. The familiar C-shaped front lighting signature is formed by a “light blade” that delivers uniform LED illumination for the daytime running lamps.

This year, the Yukon gets an AT4 trim that blends comfort with off-road prowess, making the vehicle more prepared for outdoor adventures. In addition, the 2021 Yukon also benefits from available four-corner Air Ride Adaptive Suspension that GMC claims delivers optimal ride quality and can raise the body by up to 2 inches (50 mm) for additional ground clearance when going off-road.
