DETAILED EDITORS' RATINGS

Dynamics

RATING

Engine delivers solid power, best in class mileage and flexible fuel capability. Handling is about what you would expect for a full size SUV. Comfortable off road and capable of towing substantial loads.

Comfort

RATING

Excellent ride quality and quiet cabin makes for a very comfortable drive on the highway. Other than slight offset of the driver's seat from the gauges, most drivers find it easy to get comfortable.

Function

RATING

Very functional cabin with logical controls and easily accessible storage space. Secondary steering wheel controls are easy to use and the cupholders are right where they should be.

Design/Build Quality

RATING

Slightly more interesting looking than the Chevrolet Tahoe, but still a little dull on the outside in standard trim. Yukon Denali is more interesting to look at if you can afford it. Interior design is upscale looking and well laid out.


DETAILED PROFILE:

Family Friendly With room for up to seven, the Yukon can carpool with the best of 'em. Leave out the third row seats and there's plenty of interior cargo room. Between the available rear seat DVD system and the smooth, quiet ride it makes a good road trip vehicle.

Comfortable Very quiet interior. Add in the soft seats and the quiet ride and you can go a long way without getting uncomfortable.

Towing Capable Solid tow ratings and strong engine lineup make the Yukon a capable tow vehicle.
