TOWING CAPACITY
It goes without saying that the Grand Wagoneer and the Yukon Denali have exteriors that turn heads. Equally impressive and worth a second look is what lies at the heart of each vehicle. So, let’s pop their respective hoods to find out about their capabilities.
The optional 6.2L V8 in the Denali boasts 420 horsepower. It’s impressive, but it’s still no match for the 6.4L V8 of the Grand Wagoneer that kicks out a lively 470 horsepower.
Want to take it up a notch? The available 3.0L Hurricane Twin-Turbo 510 I6 engine in the Grand Wagoneer generates a herculean 510 horsepower. The Denali offers an available 3.0L Duramax® Turbo-Diesel, but it only produces 277 horsepower.
Towing comes easy when you have a high-powered SUV, so haul your travel trailer to the campsite or take your boat out to a remote lake. The Grand Wagoneer has the advantage here. It can tow up to 9,850 pounds when properly equipped, while the Yukon Denali is only capable of pulling 8,200 pounds.
When you’re ready to take the fun off the beaten path, these SUVs offer capable 4-wheel drive systems to conquer whatever path lies ahead. You’ll be able to dial in a driving mode to match the conditions with the Selec-Terrain® Traction Management System in the Grand Wagoneer. It comes with five modes:
Meanwhile, the similar Traction Select System of the Denali only offers three modes, and Off-Road Mode is only available on 4-wheel drive models.
As you’d expect, the cabins of these luxury SUVs are crafted for comfort and convenience. Well-designed and featuring carefully selected materials, the Grand Wagoneer and the Denali provide an inviting haven on wheels.
Just relax. The interiors of these luxury SUVs are completely tailored to you. The power-adjustable driver’s seat in both models feature massaging lumbar support for the ultimate in comfort.
Heated and ventilated front seats come standard in both the Grand Wagoneer and the Denali, too. So, regardless of weather or time of year, you’re sure to be comfortable. While both models provide leather seating surfaces, only the Grand Wagoneer has supple Palermo leather, which is not available in the Denali.
The \Grand Wagoneer puts you right in the studio with your favorite musicians with an available industry-first 23-speaker McIntosh® MX1375 Reference Entertainment System. The available Bose® Performance Series Sound System of the Yukon Denali falls a bit short. It comes with 18 speakers. So, for a truly immersive listening experience, you’ll want to choose the Grand Wagoneer.
You’ll have a great view of puffy cumulus clouds during the day and constellations at night thanks to the panoramic sunroof, which is available with both models.
Whether you’re flying solo or have your whole crew in tow, safety is paramount. Both the Grand Wagoneer and the Yukon Denali provide a variety of standard and available driver-assistance features to add an extra layer of protection every time you get behind the wheel.
Whether you’re out on the open highway or squeezing through tight city streets, these SUVs have a few extra sets of eyes to help watch your back. Both models come standard with brand-specific versions of these features:
If you’re driving on a dark road late at night, it’s time to activate your night vision! The Grand Wagoneer is available with a Night Vision Camera with Pedestrian and Animal Detection. It uses thermal imaging to detect unexpected obstacles in the dark. It then projects the image directly onto your driver display. The Denali doesn’t offer a similar feature.
The best luxury cars can park themselves. The \Grand Wagoneer is no exception. It comes standard with the ParkSense® Automated Parking System. Once an open spot is identified, it can maneuver the vehicle right in with the push of a button. Unless you upgrade to a higher trim. you’ll be parking the car yourself in the GMC Yukon Denali.
These mammoth SUVs can rule any road they set their tires on. However, if you’re looking for the vehicle with superior safety systems, comfort, and power, the Grand Wagoneer is the clear choice. This SUV will make every ride through Woodstock, Kennesaw, and Marietta, GA all about you.
