If you are choosing a right hand drive American luxury SUV for Australia, focus on the long wheelbase GMC Yukon XL. It is the version with real third row comfort, extra space and a truly usable boot with all seats up, so you can carry family and luggage without compromise. We only supply the XL because it is the best expression of the GMC Yukon for Australian needs, with the space, refinement and presence buyers expect at this level. Only Autogroup International offers the Yukon XL in right hand drive for Australia with both engine choices and the full luxury trim range across AT4, Denali, AT4 Ultimate and Denali Ultimate.
Why XL matters in Australia
The XL gives about 4 to 5 centimetres more third row legroom than the standard wheelbase, so adults sit naturally with knees and feet placed comfortably. The simple reality is than an adult cannot comfortably fit in the 3rd seats of a shorts wheel base Yukon. Try it yourself! With all three rows in use the cargo area will take five to seven suitcases, which is the difference between travelling as a family or splitting luggage across cars. Every Australian Yukon XL we supply includes second row captain’s chairs as standard, creating a clear aisle to the third row and a genuine first class feel for passengers. Despite the space, the Yukon XL is shorter overall than many American full size pickups seen on our roads, so it still fits common car parks and suburban streets. Over the past five years, and hundreds of right hand drive Yukon’s delivered, Autogroup International have never sold the short wheelbase because giving up legroom and boot space is a false economy.
Engines for how you drive
Only Autogroup International offers both engines in right hand drive for Australia, so you choose what suits your lifestyle rather than settling for a single option.
3.0L Duramax turbo diesel for long distance efficiency, strong low rpm torque and relaxed highway cruising.
6.2L V8 petrol, 420 hp for effortless acceleration and a refined V8 character.
Both are paired to a smooth 10 speed automatic, with available 4WD and advanced chassis systems that make towing and touring in Australian conditions easy.
T4 The Autogroup International right hand drive Yukon XL AT4 is the adventurous choice for Australia, blending genuine off road hardware with luxury you can live with every day. Off road tuned suspension, underbody protection and traction aids handle gravel, sand and station roads with calm control. The premium, quiet cabin and standard captain’s chairs make long family trips easy, while the XL’s extra boot space means the luggage actually fits.
Denali The Yukon XL Denali in right hand drive is a classic luxury statement and the benchmark for calm, quiet touring. Hand finished materials, a signature grille and premium technology including a 13.4 inch centre display and 12.3 inch driver display create an effortless experience. With second row captain’s chairs and the XL’s added legroom, every seat is a good seat, which is exactly what Australian families expect at this level.
AT4 Ultimate The Autogroup International Yukon XL AT4 Ultimate brings the best of both worlds by pairing AT4 capability with Denali grade appointments. Expect premium seating, high specification audio and displays, advanced driver assistance, and the hardware Australians actually use on beaches, rutted climbs and regional properties. It is the sweet spot for owners whose weekdays are executive and weekends are active.
Denali Ultimate The right hand drive Yukon XL Denali Ultimate is the most luxurious specification we deliver. Think Alpine Umber interior, Vader chrome exterior accents and 22 inch wheels, presented with the full suite of comfort and technology features. In a market where some offerings prioritise a bargain specification, Autogroup International shows what a proper luxury Yukon XL should be for Australia, with no compromises on space or equipment.
We supply the XL across all these trims because our clients want the best version of each grade, not a pared back specification to meet a specific budget…
Cabin and practicality
The Autogroup International right hand drive Yukon XL is designed to move people and gear at the same time. With captain’s chairs in row two and the extra 4 to 5 centimetres of third row legroom, adults settle in without contortions and kids have space to grow. Keep all three rows up and you still have a boot that actually works, so prams, golf bags and multiple suitcases fit under cover. Fold rows as needed and the load bay turns into a flat, long cargo area for bikes, boards and bulky boxes.
Technology and refinement
A modern luxury SUV should be quiet, connected and intuitive. The right hand drive Yukon XL delivers with a 13.4 inch centre touchscreen, 12.3 inch driver display and a Head Up Display where specified, integrated neatly into our mirror image Autogroup International right hand drive dashboard. Premium audio, rear seat entertainment options and a panoramic roof complete the experience. Multi view camera systems and driver assistance features make parking and towing straightforward across Australian cities and regional towns.
Built the Autogroup International way
Right hand drive conversion requires more than moving a steering wheel. Autogroup International mirrors the ergonomics and control logic so everything lands naturally for the driver. Dashboards and brackets are re tooled, electronics are re loomed to OE standards, and every vehicle is documented for compliance. Our Yukon XL programme has run for years with vehicles delivered across Australia, Indonesia, Malaysia, India, South Africa, the UK, Zimbabwe and beyond. Clients choose an Autogroup International right hand drive Yukon XL because they do not want to compromise with a short wheelbase or an entry specification.
Service, support and Australian know how
Ownership is where we stand apart. Our 30 year Australian workshop is dedicated to American vehicles, with technicians who live and breathe these platforms. You get local service pathways, parts logistics from Melbourne and direct access to our engineering teams. This depth is why our Autogroup International right hand drive Yukon XL fleet keeps families and executives moving around the world, not just on delivery day but for years after.
