2003 GMC Yukon Denali
The Denali is essentially an upscale version of the basic Yukon model.
However, it doesn't just push the scale up a few notches, it practically
blows the roof right off. If you were to take a Yukon and load it will
every available option, it still wouldn't reach the level of the 2003
GMC Yukon Denali. With exceptional handling, power in excess, sophisticated
safety systems and all sorts of comfort features, the 2003 GMC Yukon Denali
is a worthy occupant of the premium full-size SUV segment.
Available Models
Because the 2003 GMC Yukon Denali basically comes with every conceivable
feature standard, there is only model offered. However, for extra room
there is also the Yukon XL Denali.
Interior Features
The 2003 GMC Yukon Denali seats up to nine with ease inside its lush interior.
Like other Yukon models, the seats of the Denali have been redesigned
to improve comfort, form and safety. Unlike other Yukon models however,
the Denali has standard front bucket seats and standard leather upholstery.
Another standard feature that is an option with other Yukons is eight-button
steering-wheel controls, which provide safer, more convenient audio adjustments,
access to trip and fuel data, personalization of up to nine vehicle functions
and a direct link to the standard OnStar system.
Some of the other impressive features in the 2003 GMC Yukon Denali are
as follows: XM Satellite Radio, 10-way power front bucket seats with driver-seat
memory, heated front and second-row seats, high airflow tri-zone automatic
climate control, upgraded Bose AM/FM/cassette with in-dash 6-disc CD changer
and rear radio controls.
Exterior Features
Standard body-colored exterior rearview mirrors improve safety and visibility
with power-fold, curb-tilt capability and integrated turn-signal indicators.
In addition, they also add memory to their previous features. For 2003,
the Denali is available in a new color: Carbon Metallic.
Performance
The 2003 GMC Yukon Denali excels when it comes to performance. It is equipped
with a Vortec 6.0-liter V8 with 320 horsepower at 5000 rpm and 365lb-ft
of torque at 4000 rpm. An all-wheel drive configuration is standard, as
is 4-speed automatic transmission. Also standard is the StabiliTrak stability
enhancement system, which utilizes sensors to monitor suspension, steering
and braking to give the vehicle outstanding control.
A new Borg-Warner one-speed full-time, open differential transfer case,
replacing the previous viscous-coupled transfer case, improves fuel economy
and permits greater and more flexible torque transfer.
Safety and Security
As manufacturers do a thorough job addressing every other aspect of the
vehicle, it is no surprise that they give the Denali an advanced safety
system as well. A new passenger-sensing airbag system monitors the size
of occupants and deactivates in certain conditions where deployment would
cause injury. Stopping isn't a problem either, with HydroBoost hydraulic
power, four-wheel disc, four-wheel antilock brakes with dual piston calipers,
Dynamic Rear Proportioning and brake proportioning differential valve.
