Reviews SummaryWith the redesigned 2021 GMC Yukon, several good things happen. First, GMC improves passenger space and cargo space by stretching the wheelbase and switching to an independent rear suspension design. Second, those same changes, coupled with a new air-ride adaptive suspension option, enhance the full-size SUV’s ride and handling. Third, payload ratings rise by as much as 45 kilograms (100 pounds). Fourth, the Yukon gets a significant technology upgrade. But at the same time, the new Yukon takes a couple of steps backward. Tow ratings can’t match the outgoing Yukon, and in some cases, fuel efficiency numbers worsen rather than improve. Still, all things considered, the Yukon's updates for the 2021 model year represent advancement. | |
