2011 GMC Yukon
2011 GMC Yukon
GMC Yukon is the no-excuses full-size SUV engineered for those who refuse to sacrifice capability for refinement or capacity for efficiency. This uncompromising approach gives Yukon Denali the most power in it's calss. It's why Yukon Hybrid is the first full-size SUV with a two-mode Hybrid System for the best fuel economy in its class. It's all why Yukon XL offers nine-passenger seating and cargo capacity unmatched by any competitor. Together, these accomplishments and more make Yukon the benchmark for the full-size SUV and exemplify why our engineers never say never.
THE MOST SCIENCE IN ITS CLASS
Yukon Hybrid is the first full-size SUV to offer two-mode hybrid drive. Together with Yukon Denali Hybrid, they use the breakthrough technology of the Power Control Management System that seamlessly transitions between fuel and electric power. The result is a 33% improvement in EPA-estimated fuel economy during city driving over the non-hybrid model. Just as impressive is the 6,200-lb trailering capacity, along with undiminished interior cargo volume and passenger seating capacity.
The First Full-Size Hybrid SUV: At low speeds and light loads, Yukon Hybrid can reduce fuel consumption by shitting off the engine and operating on electric power alone. It can also run on engine power alone, or a combustion of both gas and electric. In the city, this technology offers an EPA-estimated 20 mog, the best in its class. With the advanced technology of Active Fuel Management at highway speeds, Yukon can use its 6.0L V-8 VVT engine in either V-4 or V-8 operation - sometimes with an extra boost of electric power - as conditions warrant. Full V-8 power is available for trailer towing, passing on a long, steep grade. in other words, you have all the power you need, when you need it, while still maintaining excellent fuel economy - an EPA estimated 23 mpg on the highway.
Regenerative Braking: During normal stops, regenerative braking uses the motors in the hybrid transmission as generators to decelerate the vehicle by applying resistance in the motors rather than brake friction. At the same time, the motors are capturing that energy as electricity in the 300-volt battery pack, electricity that is available for the next acceleration cycle.
Active Fuel Management (AFM): In situations where extra power isn't needed, such as cruising at highway speeds, AFM deactivates four of the eight sylinders to become a V-4. For passing, trailering or hilly terrain, pressing the accelerator can reactivate all eight cylinders in milliseconds, For even greater power when necessary, the electric drive system can automatically engage for extra torque.
Variable Valve Timing (VVT): To give you maximum power over the widest range of engine speeds, VVT changes the engine's performance profile to match the driving situation. In city driving, VVT gives you a smooth idle and quick response at low speeds. On the open road, VVT changes your engine to a bold, high-performance V-8 with horsepower to spare.
NiMH Battery Power: Yukon Hybrid packs a lot of power in a small space, thanks to its 300-volt Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery pack. It's technology stores power so efficiently that the complete battery pack fits under the second-row seat between the strong steel frame rails, leaving your passenger and cargo volume unaffected.
ENERGIZED TO EXCEL
The Vortec V-8 engine family is designed to deliver power without compromise. Each engine uses premium materials and advanced technology that give you impressive overall refinement and efficiency. In fact, when Yukon is equipped with the 5.3L V-8 VT, it offers an EPA-estimated highway mpg rating of 21, better than any competitor in its class.
Power Without Sacrifice To Economy: At 403 horsepower and 417 lb-ft of torque, the Vortec 6.2L V-8 VVT engine that is standard in Yukon Denali and Yukon XL Denali offers the most horsepower and torque in its class. Thanks to this engine's uncompromised engineering, its bold acceleration and passing capability are also matched with a smooth idle and progressive low-speed response rarely found in V-8s of similar performance.
OnStar Vehicle Diagnostics: To keep your engine performing at its best, you can monitor its operation and many of your Yukon's other vital functions with OnStar Vehicle Diagnostics (OVD). With OVD, your vehicle can run through a series of checks for your engine, transmission, antilock brakes and more, then e-mail you a summary of the results every month. If you choose, you can press the OnStar button and ask your Advisor to perform a complete system check as you drive.
Response At Any Speed: To give you immediate acceleration with strong reserve response at almost any speed, the standard Vortec 5.3L V-8 VVT with Active Fuel Management (AFM) is tuned to deliver its power across a wide RPM range. This engine also offers the best highway fuel economy of any conventional gas V-8 in its class, an EPA-estimated 21 mpg hwy.
6-Speed Automatic: All 5.3L and 6.2L Yukon mdoels are equipped with a 6-speed automatic transmission engineered to extract optimum performance from the Vortec engine. Standard with all 6-speed automatics is Driver Shift Control (DSC), which lets you manually shift gears to suit gears up and down with the +/- tap shift selector. All Yukon models also feature Tow/Haul mode and automatic Grade Braking.
E85 FlexFuel Capability: To reduce emissions and give you more choices when you fill up, all Yukon models except Yukon 3/4-ton, Yukon Hybrid and Yukon Denali Hybrid are FlexFuel capable. This means they can use E85 ethanol, a blend of 85 percent ethanol produced from mostly domestic renewable resources, and 15 percent regular unleaded gasoline. E85's high-octane rating can also help improve your engine performance, increasing both power and torque.

The result is premium ride smoothness without sacrifice to Denali Hybrid's agility.
The Control of Stabilitrak: StabiliTrak helps to heighten your safety on most road conditions, even during emergency maneuvers. The system uses sensors that feed real-time data on the position of your steering wheel, brake pressure, lateral acceleration and tuning rate to an onboard computer. If your Yukon is not responding adequately to your steering input, the computer adjusts engine torque and.or brake pressure to any individual wheel to help you stay on track. StabiliTrak can also help to mitigate the chance of a rollover.
Extra Braking Assistance: large, high-capacity four-wheel disc brakes with ABS are engineered into every Yukon model for confident stops, time after time. For extra assistance, the system offers brake assist that can sense a sudden stop and apply full pedal pressure to help stop or slow your Yukon as quickly as possible for the conditions.
THE TRAILERING LEADER
The challenges of real life bring out the best in Yukon. For work, recreation or somewhere in between, we went beyond the sheer capacity to not only help you shoulder the load, but to enjoy the experience. From the confident power of the Vortec engine family to the advanced stability control systems. Yukon is engineered from the ground up for trailering, ready for any challenge and comfortable in any situation.
Maximum Trailering Capacity: With available seating for up to nine or best-in-class 137.4 cu. ft. of cargo volume, Yukon XL is the choice for maximum passenger and cargo capacity. The Yukon XL is the choice for maximum passenger and cargo capacity. The Yukon XL features a 3/4-ton model not offered by any other competitor. This provides a trailer weight rating of 9,600 lbs and a best-in-class maximum payload of up to 2454 lbs.
Extra Control For Trailering: BEcause using Yukon;s capacity shouldn't test your limits, the 6-speed automatic has two standard assists. First, is the Tow/Haul mode, which works to reduce excess the second feature, called Grade Braking. This changes the timing of gear shifts to use the engine and the transmission to slow the vehicle, to reduce demand on the brakes and help to produce confident descents.
Integrated Trailer Brake Controller: No other competitor offers the confidence of Yukon's available trailer brake controller. It is completely integrated with the Yukon's electrical ABS systems, allowing your trailer brakes to operate simultaneously with your vehicle brakes. To suit changing conditions, this system also allows you to adjust the trailer brake force (or "gain") from the controller switch located on your lower left instrument panel.
CONFIDENCE COMES FROM WITHIN
From your first drive, you can tell Yukon is solidly in your corner. It is engineered with multiple safety features that help you before, and thanks to OnStar, even after a collision. Yukon's active safety systems help you avoid trouble, while its passive systems protect you if a crash occurs. It all works together to give you the security you need to use its capabilities to the fullest.
Side Blind Zone Alert: In addition to standard safety systems such as StabiliTrak and antilock brakes, Yukon is available with Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA). It uses alternating radar beams to sweep adjacent traffic lanes, covering a zone approximately one lane over from each side of the vehicle. A dedicated amber icon next to the outside rearview mirror's turn-signal display lights up any time there is a vehicle in the blind spot and flashes if you activate the turn signal.
Yukon Air Bag Deployment: Yukon is engineered with dual-stage front air bags that feature the Passenger Sensing System. The system uses a sensor within the front passenger seat to detect the weight and position of an occupant. Depending on its readings, it can automatically deactivate the air bag, or choose the proper low- or high-level deployment to help reduce the risk of air-bag-induced injury. To help protect you in a rollover or side-impact crash, Yukon has head curtain side-impact air bags with rollover protection. They function like a protective curtain, unfolding from the roof rail on each side. Activated by side-impact and rollover sensors, each curtain includes air bag sections for all outboard passengers. All models except Yukon Hybrid (but including the Yukon Denali Hybrid) also include side-impact air bags to provide thorax (chest) and pelvic (hip) protection for both driver and front seat passenger.
Automatic Crash Response: Now, you can get the help you need even if you can't ask for it. in the event of a crash, sensors around your vehicle can automatically send an alert to OnStar. An OnStar Advisor is immediately connected to your vehicle to see if you need help. If you are unable to respond, the Advisor will use GPS technology to pint point your exact location to direct emergency help - even in areas of limited cellular reception. The Advisor can also relay critical crash information to emergency responders, such as the severity and type of crash, so the responders are better equipped to treat you at the scene.

The Advisor can also relay critical crash information to emergency responders, such as the severity and type of crash, so the responders are better equipped to treat you at the scene.
