When you're in the market for a full-sized SUV, there are a few stand-out models to consider. Perhaps you are sizing up because your family has grown, or maybe you’re looking for more cargo space. Whatever the reason may be, you should do your research on the model that best fits your needs. That’s where we come in: we have compiled some of the most notable features of these two popular modes, the 2024 GMC Yukon and the 2024 Toyota Sequoia, to assist you in your car shopping journey. Let’s dive into the details below.
Both models come in five trim levels, so you have your options in the features you most want to find in your future vehicle. Both vehicles seat up to seven passengers, but let’s talk about space.
2024 Yukon: This GMC model offers 40.4” of front headroom, 44.5” of front legroom, and a max of 145 cubic feet of cargo space with the seats folded down, making for a super spacious and comfortable ride.
2024 Sequoia:The Toyota model offers 39.2” of front headroom, 41.2” of front legroom, and 12 cubic feet of cargo space without the ability to lay the seats flat to achieve a proper maximum cargo space.
As far as space goes, a few inches here and there make a big difference. And clearly, the Yukon comes out on top in the way of cargo space.
Both models offer standard entertainment like wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, but the Yukon has USB ports in all rows while the Sequoia does not have this convenience. Both have heated elements like side mirrors, front seats, and the steering wheel, available. However, the Yukon also has heated seats available for the second-row seats, spreading the coziness throughout the cabin.
The Yukon has Google built-in and an 18-speaker Bose® Performance Series Sound System and the Sequoia has a JBL Premium Audio System 14-speaker sound system.
In terms of the performance, we can take a look at the engines: the Yukon has a V8 engine and the Sequoia has a hybrid V-6 engine. Both models are capable of towing and can handle a max trailer weight of 5,000 lbs. Likewise, both vehicles are capable of off-road fun with specific trims. The Yukon AT4 has 20-inch wheels and all-terrain tires, and the Sequoia has the TDR Pro trim.
Let’s talk about safety. Both vehicles have these standard modern safety features available: collision alerts, tire pressure monitoring, and rear backup cameras. However, the GMC Yukon offers a bit more in terms of safety with rear seat reminders, Buckle to Drive feature, Teen Driver (a parental feature that assists new drivers and informs parents of driving habits), LATCH system for a secure car seat connection, 3 years of OnStar Safety and Security Services, and automatic emergency braking.
While other areas of these two vehicles may have been close in comparison, when it comes to safety, the Yukon easily takes the lead.
While the Sequoia’s max price comes in at a lower price, the base levels start around the same price of the Yukon. It’s a “you get what you pay for” kind of scenario. After all, the GMC brand offers premium materials and care, adding a touch of luxury to your everyday drive.
