Is the Yukon Denali a good SUV for a family

Yukon Denali – I want to chat today about an unusual vehicle I’ve been driving in my search for the best new mum SUVs. It is the Yukon Denali.

Now this is a big American 8 seat 4WD.

It’s the wagon version of the Silverado 1500 Pickup. I mentioned it is big didn’t I.

It’s a true 4WD but no one will ever really take this too far off road.

As a family wagon the closest you can get to the interior space is a people mover.

The front seats are especially comfortable, heated and cooled.

The middle row seats have a slide and recline function. They have a different system called LATC – lower anchor and tethers for children. This has a similar function to an Isofix system but different enough. They also have top tether points.

Because it is large, there is plenty of room for three baby seats in the middle row.

Access to the third row seats  is by forward folding the middle seat. The third row seats can be folded and raised electronically.

Access to the cabin is helped by a fold out step which retracts after you are inside.

Even though its big, it doesn’t feel like that when driving. The big V8 petrol engine simply hums along, and it’s packed with luxury features to make the family relax.

However, with a price of somewhere near $175,000 plus the usual costs, it’s not for everyone. But I absolutely loved driving it for the week. Its Mum life upgraded.
