The aggressive MSRP is in line with the recent repricing announcement for the GMC brand. The 2007 Yukon will be available in February 2006, followed by the launch of Yukon XL and Denali models later this year. “We are excited to introduce the new Yukon lineup, and with the all-new design, improved content and attractive price, it’s a real value for consumers,” said John Larson, Pontiac-GMC General Manager. New optional features include roof-mounted head curtain side air bags for all seating rows, a power liftgate, 20” wheels and tires, rear camera system, heated windshield wiper fluid, as well as a segment-exclusive power fold-and-tumble second row seat. The Yukon will continue its segment-leading fuel economy position, achieving an estimated 16/22 mpg city/highway for 2WD and 15/21 mpg city/highway for 4WD. Other fuel management technologies include standard Active Fuel Management and E85 FlexFuel capability on most models. The 2007 Yukon line includes Yukon, Yukon XL, Yukon Denali and Yukon XL Denali. Pricing for the other Yukon models will be available later this year.
