Of just the 3, the Yukon. Because of the new cinder block look that GM has, I think the Yukon looks the best out of the 3. Also, you can spec it to be more affordable or get more luxury with the Denali.
@@marcusbachelder for years the yukon tahoe and ecscalde has always been the same you're paying for the name that's about it interior wise it's all the same and the only difference outside is the grille it's been this way the last 20 years
The GMC Yukon is one of the best looking SUV’s out there, I like the idea how GMC gave the Denali a different interior compared to the other trims and the Tahoe, I’ll choose the Yukon’s exterior with the Escalade’s interior. Great review Sofyan!
Huge fan of the channel and wanted to say I absolutely love that you guys keep in the bloopers lol. Gives it a nice breaking the 4th wall kinda feeling.
I never had or driven a GMC before. Last weekend we rented a 2022 GMC Sierra elevation package for a 1000km road trip. I enjoyed driving it so much. Very comfortable truck and it looked great. Now I am looking at this SUV for ourselves as we don't really need a truck and this seems to have the same comfortable interior as the truck.
Have to step in say, no. I think they got it right with the mechanical gauges. I know a lot of people would rather have a full digital display, but having touches of mechanical to me, is more classic, so it speaks more luxury like to me. I feel going all digital would just feel cheaper, even if it isn't.
That door slam actually sounded shaky, but at least GM has finally designed a decent interior. Now they just need to put an interior like this in their pickup trucks.
I am glad I am not alone in this. Everyone kept saying how the new Escalade is so amazing, when I could hardly tell apart Tahoe from it. I think the Yukon is by far the best looking out of the 3.
After testing the Tahoe Z71, I'm not sure I would make the leap to the GMC models unless I cared that much about the styling. The Tahoe is so great that I don't think the sub Denali models really offer anything on the GMC side, but I do like that trim exclusive Denali dash....
The power slide center console has an unlabeled button on the control button group near the sunroof control. It is intentionally unlabeled for security purposes.
GM needs to start offering a 'black out package' on all of their trucks and SUVs. Most people just aren't into vehicles bathed in chrome anymore, so they should give buyers a choice.
@@b.t.2795 My extended family has had Tahoes For 20 years. They last forever with little needed other than maintenance. I’ll Stick with what I know works. I love the 6.2 v8.
"A report from JP Morgan says that GMC’s Denali sub-brand generates $6.4 billion in revenue. That’s more than Land Rover and close to Audi. And we’re just talking about a trim line, not the entire GMC lineup." Autoline.
They gained revenue because they outsourced manufacturing and cut workers health benefits lol I doubt people will get more then 5 years of use before th SUV starts to break down gm quality is terrible
@@ricardom3597 or they own half the large SUV market! 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.
The center console might have the optional locking box in storage compartment, that could explain why it's "not as deep" and might be reason why it's not movable as well. And the button to control it is in lower middle of the roof button panel. ;)
How is the interior noise? In the video it sounded quite loud in the cabin, I didn't notice you talking about noise in the cabin (maybe you mentioned it).
I agree that the gauges, especially on the Denalis, should've been fully digital. That said, I expect that GM wanted to save SOMETHING for the MCE (mid-cycle enhancement), and I have a sneaking suspicion that the mechanical tach and speedometer will disappear when the MCE comes along in three years or so.
I think it could really add some value to your reviews, when comparing two model years (old vs new), just throw in a quick image of the old model for reference... or an example here was putting in an image of the blacked out grill as a visual guide...
Solid review. Well done. You've provided more input about how the diesel drives than any other I've seen so far, though there is a driving scenario you did not mention that I wish you had, or maybe that you or some of the posters here might post and answer here: You mentioned that at speeds on the highway the diesel isn't as powerful passing other vehicles as the 6.2 liter was. I am wondering how this diesel would do at highway speeds on mountain turnpikes going uphill, if it will even accelerate to pass at all. And since you did mention the Sport mode, might putting it into Sport mode help its passing ability going up hills at speed. Also, how might the diesel engine do at high altitudes like in Colorado or Utah, or in sub freezing winter temperatures, say when you first start it up on a very cold morning. Any additional input like this would be welcome. Either way, thanks for a good review. (P.S. In case it helps with your input, it is the 4 wheel drive diesel I am considering, either the Denali or the Escalade, in either case the loaded top trim)
@@jasondumitru I did not. Ended up putting off the car decision. Now with this chip shortage it seems some vehicles won't come with some things. Check into that if you get one. The delay allowed time for them to come out with the 2023 Denali Ultimate, which I like quite a bit, maybe better than the other Denali's in part because it apparently has richer leather and massaging front seats. If I was to get one now I would seriously consider the new 2023 which apparently will hit the streets this fall. It comes in just one interior and exterior color. I like the interior a good bit. I can't quite tell what the exterior is, it looks almost purple, so not sure about that. Most, not all but most, of the exterior trim is a darker Vader chrome which is beautiful and not so shiny as the original chrome which they do keep in two places.
You didn’t go over the controls above the rear view mirror, if you had you would have found the power control for the sliding center console. More secure that way
Interesting video... Are you trying to tell us something displaying, subliminally with the double Trash Dumpsters in the background, about this Awesome looking vehicle? Hmmm ...
I understand your preference with digital displays Sofyan but not everything needs a digital display. Some people prefer the analogue style and it makes more sense to have a traditional gauge on a truck that you want to last for many years. Typical lifespan of an LCD screen is 5-10 years give or take, that needle isn't going anywhere in that time-span. I'm guessing the average Denali buyer prefers something a bit more traditional and of course there's the fact that a regular gauge ages better.
Hello redline reviews, you have yet to review the ZL1... are we ever going to get that? I remember you saying you loved the redesigned camaro back in 2016 but have not covered the refresh or ZL1 trim.
If I was getting one, which I thought I wanted one, it would probably be this Yukon Denali, but I rented a Tahoe once, and compared to my three-row crossover, the space in this full size is just a bit excessive for my needs, and, compared to my current car, the extra 3" wide and 13" long will push my garage to its limits! Maybe when my kids are teens and we require more space, this will make it to my driveway.
Personally I do think they should’ve went to the digital dash also. My main concern they should’ve done is used the original or Escalade gear shifter and made the Navi screen all the way over. Go with the bigger screen
I really hope you get a chance to answer my other, recent post, but watching your review again, I thought of another question: Do you know, does the loaded Denali Ultimate have all the same mechanical/electronic internal features and resulting off road and bad weather capabilities that are in the loaded AT4? Other than the benefit of the larger tires and approach angle of the AT4 of course. And if it does, has it been de-tuned at all? Since I cannot get the AT4 with the diesel, it opens me up to seriously considering the Denali with the Diesel; and the loaded top Escalade either doesn't have all that internal stuff identically the same, or it is at least de-tuned for luxury making it less capable. Thanks.
Hi. I am planning on buying this car but I am still hesitant about which kind of fuel I should buy. Can you tell us more about the noise of the diesel? Is the sound from the machine noticeable when we seat in the car? How if we compare between diesel and 6.2l machine? Thanks and hope to see your help soon
You mentioned real metal on the steering wheel but it should be noted it’s not solid metal. Something like a Porsche will have an actual solid CNCed piece of aluminum where as some thing like this will just use a piece of sheet metal stamped into shape to cover plastic. Even my Audi use a sheet metal over plastic and dents really easily.

Now that we've shown you guys all 3, between the Tahoe, Yukon, and Escalade... which one is your favorite and why? Let us know below!
Escalade because of the OLED screen.
Which ever is the smaller so i can maneuver it more swiftly with the diesel power
Of just the 3, the Yukon. Because of the new cinder block look that GM has, I think the Yukon looks the best out of the 3. Also, you can spec it to be more affordable or get more luxury with the Denali.
@Beelzebot buying a new car in the first place isn’t a wise decision. All cars depreciate really quickly.
I like the Yukon WAY better than the Tahoe/Suburban but I can’t say no to an Escalade..
In my opinion ever since GMC and Chevy started making different looking vehicles GMC always looks better.
To me the 2007- 2014 Tahoe/Suburban did look better than the Yukon during that time.

This thing looks more baller than the Escalade. Interior is not as nice but ain’t bad at all.
The Yukon is definitely the design winner for this generation. Love the AT4 trim 🤙🏻
It is very symbolic to shoot a video about this brand of car with a dumpster in the background. The hint is clear. Thanks.
I didn’t notice the jacket rustling until your camera guy pointed it out.
IKR. I thought it was very inappropriate to interrupt him. He actually made more of a disturbance than the jacket.

The noise from your jacket is quite distracting!
Props to the exterior design team at GMC!

Careful with the belt driven oil pump. Do your research.

“ do you want some suv with your chrome?”
I love how the Denali looks
Way better! Because there’s actual cup holder in the back! (Not the door cup holder bs). Air suspension rides really smooth too
I like the interior more in the SLT then the Denali version. Sweet truck
Yea but I kinda dont like the tacked iPad or Garmin tablet looking screen in the lower trims tho. This is better in my opinion.
Have they fixed the shutter/vibration issues of the past?!

Amazing that this engine is only $1K more than base engine and $1.5K less than the 6.2L V8. Nice pricing structure.
I rented one in Seattle and LOVE IT!
This is AWESOME with 4WD of course. I would definitely consider this.
I hope this man understands that every time he says , so so car company they should have this and this, it means more 💰💰💰💰💰
Nice vehicle. But where's the v8 duramax? Have we become that agitated by larger engines?! (And 3/4 ton SUVs?)
Though it's nice that they are offering a diesel option, the Denali trim is synonymous for the 6.2 and personally I wouldn't get any other way.
That grill is so large I could cook brisket on it.

How is this in the winter? Is there any problem starting in the winter like in -30 to -40?
Good videos man very informative 👍
nice, which trim has rear entertainment screens?
How is the Turbo lag both from stop signs and passing say 50-70 MPH. Is throttle response fairly instantaneous or does it hesitate?

But is it worth getting the diesel with diesel gas being more expensive? Does it offset?
E85 the 5.3L has 400 HP and 420 ibs/Ft Torque
The 5.3 is "lackluster"? Not exactly.
Just wait for its resale value to drop by 70% in a year
You never owned diesel truck ? I drove silverado 6.6 diesel for 3 years, 70k miles. Payed 55k. Got 45k for it.
On what planet is that? Resale is pretty good on those vehicles.
These SUVs hold their values better than most automobiles on the market, do some research before commenting next time.
Have a 2017 Yukon; trans went @ 97k. Shame they did not put an Allison Trans on that 3.0l Diesel. If they did, I would take one.
