If you’re looking for a family-friendly SUV with plenty of space for your passengers and cargo, you’ll want to visit the Jim Taylor Buick GMC dealership in Monroe, LA. Whether it's the 2024 GMC Yukon or the 2024 Nissan Armada you're eyeing, our team is here to provide you with all the information you need to make a confident decision.
GMC Yukon:
The Yukon models offer a spacious infotainment display with the latest GMC interface, making it easy and enjoyable to use. The SLE, SLT, and AT4 models come with a prominent center dashboard display, while the Denali model features a more sophisticated look with a chrome-surrounded embedded dashboard display. Standard equipment includes Apple CarPlay®/Android Auto™ integration and a Wi-Fi hotspot, and you also have the option to add navigation and a Bose audio system for an enhanced experience.
Nissan Armada:
The 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system has a clear, easy-to-read display and offers convenient rotary controls for volume and tuning. This top-notch tech package comes with built-in navigation, satellite radio (subscription required), standard Android Auto™, and wireless Apple CarPlay®. Plus, you'll find USB type A and type C ports in the front and rear, a 120-volt outlet on SL and above models, and even wireless smartphone charging.
The Yukon offers seating for up to eight passengers, and if you opt for the popular second-row captain's chairs, you can seat up to seven passengers. Trim levels like the Denali get you access to unique styling, like a wood-trimmed dashboard and hand-stitched leather upholstery, while the SLT and AT4 trim levels feature a power-sliding center console. This feature allows the driver to adjust the center console over a 10-inch track, creating space for larger first-row cargo and concealing smaller items in hidden cubbies.
Nissan Armada:The Armada stands out for its spacious interior, seating seven or eight passengers depending on the seat configuration. You can opt for second-row captain's chairs instead of a bench, providing extra comfort and flexibility. While the third row may not offer as much legroom as the Yukon, the power-folding feature (standard on the SL and higher trims) and premium details in the Platinum model make the Armada a severe contender
GMC Yukon:
The Yukon is equipped with a choice of two powerful V8 engines: a 355-horsepower 5.3-liter and a 420-horsepower 6.2-liter. For those looking for exceptional towing capability, a 3.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-six delivers an impressive 460 lb-ft of torque. All Yukon models are paired with a smooth-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission and are available in rear- or all-wheel drive. The AT4 trim is designed for off-road enthusiasts, featuring a two-speed transfer case, 20-inch wheels with all-terrain tires, underbody skid plates, and an optional air suspension system that can increase ground clearance by up to two inches.
Nissan Armada:
The Armada has a 5.6-liter V8 engine that delivers 400 horsepower and 413 lb-ft of torque. Its seven-speed automatic transmission ensures smooth gear shifts. While its ride and handling may feel a bit outdated compared to the GMC Yukon, the independent rear suspension effectively manages rough roads and offers good body control. However, the steering feels unresponsive and imprecise. On the bright side, the interior remains impressively quiet, making long highway drives a breeze.
When you’re in the market for a spacious SUV to fit your whole family, the 2024 GMC Yukon is the clear winner in this comparison. Stop by the Jim Taylor Buick GMC dealership in Monroe, LA, and check out all its impressive features. We look forward to your visit.
