Reviews Summary No longer General Motors' exclusive truck-only brand now that Buick has gone all-in on SUVs, GMC nevertheless holds a unique position in the automaker's product portfolio. Offering a lineup of "Professional Grade" trucks and SUVs with premium features, enhanced capabilities, and unique exterior and interior designs, GMC toes the line between Chevrolet and Cadillac. Redesigned for the 2021 model year, the Yukon full-size SUV gets a standard 12-inch driver information center and enhanced connectivity for 2022, among other changes. The 2022 GMC Yukon is available in four trim levels: SLE, SLT, AT4, and Denali.
Reviews Summary The full-size SUV segment is a relatively small one, and Chevrolet dominates it. The Tahoe, and its extended-length twin, the Suburban, account for about half of all big SUV sales despite competitive shortcomings in terms of interior comfort, cargo space, and towing capability. With the all-new 2021 Chevy Tahoe (and Suburban), two of those three flaws are resolved. At the same time, the 2021 Tahoe gets a big upgrade in terms of driving dynamics, technology, and innovation.

Look and feel

2022 GMC Yukon

7/10

2021 Chevrolet Tahoe

7/10

The 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe entered the full-size SUV segment with significant improvements addressing its historical shortcomings in interior comfort, cargo space, and towing capability. With its all-new design, the Tahoe also got enhanced driving dynamics, technology, and innovation, asserting Chevrolet's dominance in the segment. The 2022 GMC Yukon, no longer General Motors' truck-only brand, stood out with its "Professional Grade" trucks and SUVs. The Yukon, redesigned for the 2021 model year, added a standard 12-inch driver-information center and enhanced connectivity for 2022, offering a blend of premium features across its four trim levels: SLE, SLT, AT4, and Denali.

Performance

2022 GMC Yukon

2021 Chevrolet Tahoe

7/10

The 2021 Tahoe is praised for its engine lineup, including a standard 5.3-liter V8, an exclusive 6.2-liter V8 for the High Country, and an optional turbo-diesel engine, offering up to 420 horsepower. The independent rear suspension, coupled with available adaptive dampers and air ride suspension, significantly enhances ride quality. The Tahoe's towing capacity reaches up to 8,400 pounds. The 2022 Yukon also offers three engines, including a new 3.0-liter turbodiesel option. With its two-speed transfer case standard on higher trims, the Yukon emphasizes off-road capability and towing capacity, also up to 8,400 pounds. However, the ride quality and handling, despite improvements, show room for enhancement, especially in the Denali trim with optional air ride adaptive suspension.

2021 Chevrolet Tahoe

8/10

In terms of form and function, the 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe impresses with substantial improvements over its predecessor, especially with its new independent rear suspension system. This design change lowers the vehicle's floor, significantly enhancing passenger comfort in all three rows and expanding cargo volume. The Tahoe now boasts an impressive cargo capacity of 25.5 cubic feet behind the third row, which expands to 72.6 cubic feet with the third row folded down. With both the second and third rows folded, the maximum cargo volume available is 122.9 cubic feet. This not only represents a marked increase from previous models but also positions the Tahoe as a leader in its class for cargo space. Additionally, the Tahoe features innovative interior design choices like the power sliding storage console, which enhances usability and convenience for passengers. The 2022 GMC Yukon, following its redesign, also showcases significant improvements in passenger space and cargo volume, making it a strong contender in the full-size SUV market. The redesign includes a more accessible and comfortable third row, with an increase in legroom of more than 10 inches, bringing it to a total of 34.9 inches. This adjustment makes the Yukon's third row far more accommodating for adults. The cargo space behind the third row has also seen a substantial increase, now offering 25.5 cubic feet, aligning it with the Tahoe. These enhancements stem from a combination of the vehicle's extended wheelbase and length, as well as the introduction of an independent rear suspension, which lowers the floor for more usable space.

Technology

The Tahoe's technology scores a 9 out of 10, featuring a 10.2-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and an optional Rear Seat Media system. However, the Yukon, while also well-equipped, trails slightly with an 8 out of 10. It boasts a 12-inch driver information center and a 10.2-inch touchscreen, but its overall system integration and audio quality, especially from the Bose system, could be improved.
