The GMC Yukon has a fresh and comfortable interior. Redesigned in 2007 it has a sleek new body mounted on a new, stronger and stiffer frame with a new power steering system, improved brakes, new front suspension and reworked rear suspension.
Available in 2WD or 4WD and in three trims the Yukon seats up to nine passengers and is rated to tow up to 8200 pounds when properly equipped. Equipped with a four-speed automatic transmission, the SLE and SLT trims have a choice of three V8 engines, one of which is E85 fuel compatible. A 295-hp 4.8-liter V8 is standard on rear-wheel drive models, a 320-hp 5.3-liter V8 is standard with four-wheel drive, available on rear-wheel drive. A 380-hp 6.2-liter V8 and six-speed automatic transmission are exclusive to the Denali trim. Safety features standard on all models include dual-stage front airbags, side curtain airbags, four-wheel antilock brakes with dynamic rear proportioning, Stabilitrak stability control system with rollover mitigation, tire pressure monitoring system, and OnStar.
The 2008 model is a carryover from 2007.
