The refreshed 2025 GMC Yukon has received slight price increases across the board mid-model year. The base Elevation trim gets a $300 increase, and all other trims, the AT4, AT4 Ultimate, Denali, and Denali Ultimate, have all gotten $500 pricier. The same applies to the long-wheelbase 2025 GMC Yukon XL. These changes bring the new starting prices of the Yukon to $69,195 for the standard wheelbase and $72,195 for the XL model. These slight price increases represent price hikes of less than one percent for any given model.

The price positioning of the 2025 GMC Yukon and its XL counterpart in the full-size SUV marketplace hasn’t changed. Their starting prices are still in between the next priciest mass-market full-size SUV (Toyota Sequoia) and the cheapest full-size SUV from a luxury brand (Infiniti QX80). Riding the gap between mainstream and luxury is GMC’s specialty, and that continues with the Yukon model range.

Incidentally, the Chevy cousins of the 2025 GMC Yukon and Yukon XL, the 2025 Chevy Tahoe and 2025 Chevy Suburban, have received mid-model year price hikes in the same amounts. Both of their LT trims have gotten $300 costlier, and the prices are up by $500 for every other trim.
The 2025 GMC Yukon Elevation is the new entry-level trim of the lineup, replacing the SLE and SLT trims offered previously.
The standard 5.3L V8 L84 is rated at 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, the 6.2L V8 L87 is rated at 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, and the 3.0L I6 LZ0 turbodiesel Duramax is rated at 305 horsepower and 495 pound-feet of torque. For those customers who prefer the 6.2L V8 L87 engine, the top-spec V8 is standard in the AT4 Ultimate, Denali, and Denali Ultimate trims, and is available as a $2,495 option on the AT4 trim. All three engines pair with GM’s 10-speed automatic transmission.
The AT4 Ultimate is another addition for the 2025 model year. It debuts as a premium off-road-oriented trim with a range of different features, such as a front skid plate, 20-inch wheels wrapped in all-terrain tires, Air Ride Adaptive Suspension with a two-inch lift, Obsidian Rush three-row full-grain leather seating, Ash Burl wood accents, and a distinct leather seat pattern.
The 2025 GMC Yukon rides on GM’s T1 platform, with production once again taking place at the GM Arlington facility in Texas.

These prices are hilarious. Tell me there’s $10k in rebates as soon as they hit the dealer lots…
Tried to order a Denali Ultimate XL for my wife but the order was kicked out because none of the actual options are available. Its ridiculous that even for $115K you can get what you want.
