2021 Yukon Rear Media System Priced
Sponsored Links
The 2021 GMC Yukon brings new styling, fresh underpinnings, and an updated engine lineup for the luxury full-size SUV nameplate. Included in the list of available features is an all-new rear seat entertainment package, which keeps passengers engaged with two individual screens mounted to the back of the front seats. Now, we have pricing details in hand for the latest 2021 Yukon rear media system.
As a reminder, the 2021 Yukon rear media system includes a pair of high-resolution 12.6-inch diagonal LCD touch screens, which include a tilt feature for improved visibility, and screen sharing capability. Passengers can connect to the system via USB or HDMI ports, enabling streaming from a tablet, smartphone, or gaming console.
Each of the screens can be customized in terms of what is displayed, which means two passengers can watch or listen to their own chosen media. What’s more, the system enables audio streaming through wireless headphones, or the vehicle’s audio system, as desired. There’s also a feature that allows passengers to submit navigation requests to the infotainment screen up front, which is useful for providing directions without taking away the attention of the driver.
Pricing information for the 2021 Yukon rear media system is currently only available for SLT and Denali trim levels. Pricing for SLE and AT4 trims is currently unavailable.
For the Denali trim, the 2021 Yukon rear media system is offered as a standalone option, and is priced at $1,995.
For the SLT trim, the 2021 Yukon rear media system is only available with the Rear Media And Nav Package, which is priced at $2,490. The reason the system requires navigation on the SLT but not the Denali is that the latter comes standard with navigation, whereas the SLT does not. As a reminder, navigation is required for the system’s navigation request feature. The nav system includes SiriusXM NavTraffic.
Does the 2021 Yukon rear media system seem like a good option for the next-gen SUV? Let us know your thoughts in the comments, and make sure to subscribe to GM Authority for more GMC Yukon news, GMC news, and around-the-clock GM news coverage.
Wow!! Thank you so much for posting this! Mine is still on order but this will probably help me out very much when it arrives! Thank you!!!
I have the 2021 SLT and had the dealership install the one with the DVD player- it was annoying. The TVs have to warm up so I couldn’t set them for my 2 year old until they did. Then I asked to have the TVs changed to the hdmi ones and they are pointless. You can play them through the speakers but can’t control them from the front to change whatever they’re watching. I have 3 small children and their iPads just hook up to the TVs and are used to mirror the same onto the TVs. So pretty much pointless. I will be returning them and getting iPad holders. Also my 2 year old kicks the tv with her feet and I’m worried about cracking the screen. I do miss the old tv in our 2017 Yukon. I also miss that the new Yukon does not have the child lock control from the front. Since the new Yukon is now all electric I’m not sure why they changed the child locks back to manual. First world problems.
I’ve had my 2021 Yukon XL Denali 4X4 Ultimate package now for about 2 weeks. I’ve only had time to ride in the back and test out using a fire stick in the HDMI port and plug it in the outlet behind the console (I got the sliding console BTW, love it!!!). I haven’t had time to get back there while husband drives to try streaming straight from phone or see if I can plug a DVD player in the HDMI to work either, have you?
Anyway, I have to turn off the AUTO stop EVERY single time I drive or the screens will turn off and have to be rebooted from the start of the fire stick screen. Is there a way to make the AUTO stop stay OFF so that I don’t have to do it each time I drive? So far if it’s dark I have to turn ON the auto brights/dimming switch, turn OFF the autostop for the screens to stay on, etc, etc, etc..
GMC has made it like you are an airline pilot and have to do so many checks, check, check before you hit the road…LOL
I’d like to know this also, the only thing I’ve been able to play from my Android phone is videos on my phone, and only if they are .mov, and even then they show up sideways, etc…. very frustrating! So much money for my Yukon xl Denali and no bluray now.
This is for John. The guy saying he took it to the dealership and couldn’t get help is not lying. How do I know? Because I have the same issue with my 2021 GMC Yukon Denali. The dealership isn’t ignorant but due to COVID people haven’t been properly trained. I use one of the leading GMC dealers in the southeast located in Charlotte, NC. This has been the most frustrating technological experience ever, and I have a programming degree. Cords don’t work properly, iPad sound only comes thru Bluetooth, and HDMI is the only thing I’ve found to work halfway so far. The fact that GMC thought NO physical DVD player or blue ray or whatever was smart makes me question the engineers’ common sense. And as for your derogatory remarks, let me defend everyone and say – I’m not a grandma; I have three small kids; I don’t care if you come for me because unlike you I have a life; and you clearly do not have small kids or you would feel the frustrations of us, so until you do – TAKE A SEAT and shut up! Thanks
For the person asking about iPad sound coming through the speakers, you have to put the sound through the Bluetooth up front and have the hdmi/lightning cord projecting the picture. If your kids use headphones, then Bluetooth isn’t necessary. That’s the ONLY good feature I have found is that adults can listen to music at the same time as kids watching streamed programs IF the streaming sound is out through Bluetooth headphones.
I just bought a 2021 Yukon with the $2,500 rsi infotainment system in it. We have loads of DVDs we want to play as we did with our 2017 Yukon. How do we watch them? The kids are going crazy and I feel like an idiot Is there something we can buy so we can watch our DVDs on our long trips? Nobody seems to know how to watch DVDs. Please help. I went to the dealership and they couldn’t answer me.
I would love to buy the Yukon AT4. I really want the Navigation built in however, I do NOT wanted the rear media system. We spend enough time on our devices, passengers can look out the window and enjoy the ride or look at their phones. Hopefully in 2022 you can get navigation without rear media.
I tried hooking up my home DVD player via HDMI and it didn’t work. Now what? What kind of DVD player do I need to purchase? My young kids want me to get another car. The $2,500 I paid for the rsi infotainment is wasted money.
