About This 2017 GMC Yukon Denali

This 2017 GMC Yukon Denali arrives in a striking Black exterior finish that perfectly suits the Denali's upscale, executive character.

With over 154,000 miles on the clock, it's worth noting that the 6.2L V8 found in Denali trim is widely regarded as one of GM's most robust and long-lasting powerplants, and many examples of this generation regularly push well past 200,000 miles with consistent maintenance.

2017 GMC Yukon Denali Performance and Engine

The 6.2L V8 — The Heart of the Denali

Under the hood, the 2017 Yukon Denali carries GMC's legendary 6.2-liter V8 OHV engine — an L86 powerplant that produces 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque in stock configuration. Paired with a smooth-shifting automatic transmission, this combination delivers effortless highway passing power, confident towing capability (up to 8,500 lbs when properly equipped), and the kind of low-end grunt that makes merging onto I-75 or I-94 feel completely stress-free. The engine also features Active Fuel Management, which deactivates cylinders during light-throttle cruising to help save fuel on longer trips. For a vehicle this size, the 6.2L punches well above its weight class compared to the base 5.3L found in lower trims.

GMC Yukon Denali Features and Interior

Denali Trim Means Top-of-the-Line Equipment

The Denali trim is GMC's flagship package, and the 2017 Yukon Denali was loaded from the factory with features that rival luxury brands at a fraction of the price on the used market. Standard Denali equipment for this generation includes a 10.2-inch diagonal color touchscreen with the IntelliLink infotainment system, navigation, Bose premium audio with up to 10 speakers, heated and ventilated front seats, a heated second-row bench or captain's chairs, tri-zone automatic climate control, a power sliding center console, and a power-retractable assist step. The interior is finished with genuine wood trim accents and soft-touch surfaces throughout. Third-row seating provides room for up to nine passengers, making this an ideal vehicle for large families throughout the Detroit metro area and Wayne County.
