The 2003 GMC Yukon XL 2500 is big, strong and willing to
handle whatever challenge is thrown its way. It has all
the power and handling to perform heavy-duty work on or
off the beaten path. On the softer side of things, the 2003
GMC Yukon XL 2500 is a reliable family vehicle with plenty
of comfort features to make long drives pleasant rather
than painful. 2003 sees a new-and-improved Yukon line, as
all models are given a complete once-over, resulting in
enhanced performance, safety and style.
Available Models
The ¾-ton 2003 GMC Yukon XL 2500 comes in 2WD and
4WD configurations. A wealth of available optional equipment
allows owners to tailor their Yukons for whatever needs
they have.
Interior Features
The 2003 GMC Yukon XL 2500 can seat between seven and nine
people very easily. All-new seats feature a simpler, cleaner
appearance and thicker headrests improve comfort. A new
driver information center provides nearly twice as much
crucial operating data and places it directly in front of
the driver for safe, easy viewing. Other highlights among
the standard features include AM/FM CD/cassette player,
tri-zone automatic climate control and cruise control.
A DVD entertainment system, featuring a 7-inch flip-down
screen, two wireless (infrared) headphones, a wireless remote
control and three sets of auxiliary video and audio inputs
heads the options list.
Exterior Features
Like the Yukon XL 1500, the XL 2500 has a wheelbase of 130
inches. As with all 2003 Yukons, the XL 2500 also offers
a new four-position headlamp switch that gives drivers the
ability to turn off the daytime running lamps and automatic
headlamps for one ignition cycle, when necessary, simply
by reverse-rotating the headlamp switch.
Performance
The standard engine on the 2003 Yukon XL 2500 is supplemented
with an available upgrade. The base model comes with a 6.0-liter
Vortec V8 with 320 horsepower. The upgrade, however, offers
plenty of bite. An 8.1-liter Vortec V8 boasting 340 horsepower,
it will get up to speed in any condition.
For 2003, the ¾-ton Yukon XL offers GM's revolutionary
Quadrasteer four-wheel-steering system. Quadrasteer reduces
curb-to-curb turning diameter by 20 percent to 35 feet and
increases track width by 5 inches for greater stability.
Safety and Security
The available Quadrasteer system is as functional a safety
feature as any. Others features include four-wheel disc,
four-wheel antilock brakes with dual piston calipers and
Dynamic Rear Proportioning and a sophisticated dual-stage,
dual-level airbag system, which uses a sensing system to
automatically deactivate the passenger-side airbag under
certain conditions to protect children.
