The 2022 GMC Sierra Denali Ultimate Is The Pinnacle in Luxury Half-Ton Trucks
Vložit
- čas přidán 8. 09. 2024
- When the all-new #GMCSierra was introduced in 2019, it offered a plethora of engine options, tough capability, and handsome styling. However, the interior of the Sierra was very lackluster compared to equally new and older rivals. For 2022, that has been addressed with a completely refreshed #SierraDenaliUltimate and its fully redesigned interior. The latest #GMCSierraDenali has enough wood, leather, and tech to make luxury brands green with envy, and #GMC has also introduced a new premium off-road version called the #SierraAT4X that is essentially GMC's version of the new #SilveradoZR2. The entire #Sierra lineup gets the updated interior with a new 13.4" touch screen in the center stack on all but the base trims.

I’m glad they refreshed the interior finally, this is what it should have had from the beginning.
It’s 80k. It’s about damn time
@@mssha1980 Jesus Christ. & I’m sure that’s just the starting price huh. Probably rises as you add more features & etc
They were still second best selling after ford with the shit interior last gen, so this should really pump their sales now with current gen and interior set up.
Agreed!
If thus is a refresh does that mean a new design is coming in 2024?
Oh my god I was just thinking “when is redline reviews gonna post another video” and I went on CZcams and see this video uploaded 13 seconds ago lol
Been a min
I've owned f150s for the past 10 years, buying a new one every other year or so. I use sierras as work trucks. The ONLY reason I refused to buy one was the dated interior. With this refresh/update I finally purchased my first GMC. They nailed it imo. I love the truck.
agreed- the keyfob is still dated af
@@nealpatel6028 who gives a damn the interior is where it counts especially in that denali ultimate with that unique timber wolf looking interior. Denali ultimates look like wolves based on the mount denali typography on that interior.
This is my dream truck. First thing I did on mine was add the GMC front and rear Brembo brake package and Borla cat-back exhaust with quad tips in gloss black. Hated the chrome HDMI port looking exhaust tips. The truck stops on a dime with the brake upgrades. Immediately swapped out the crappy Bridgestone Alenza highway tires for some Toyo Open Country AT/III that increased the ride quality, control and comfort dramatically. Next I added the OEM metal Under-Body Skid Shield Package to replace the cheap factory plastic one. Installed an S&W Cold Air Intake with the oil filter and this 6.2L engine breaths effortlessly and gets up real fast. Tip, put her in Sport mode with Auto 4-wheel drive engaged and it’ll rip off the line. Lastly, I removed the chrome lug nuts and replaced them with black chrome ones to match my black wheels. Much cleaner look and the wheels appear to float. At 6’5” this truck has plenty of legroom for me and I love the high height of the seating position. Only complaint is the seats are a little stiff and smaller compared to my previous Ram 1500 Laramie. The 6.2L engine does drink gas so get the Duramax 3.0L turbocharged diesel engine if you’re worried about the high cost of fuel.
Great job, you are by far the best automobile reviewer on CZcams imo. Keep up the great work. 👍

Thanks Rob for your tireless work on this - and all videos. A good reminder of the hard work that goes on behind the camera ;)
Great review as always, looks like an awesome truck. Kudos to Rob for braving the heat and sun to get some amazing shots.
I unloaded the 2020 GMC Sierras/Silverados off from the trains where they are transported from and I fell in love with them, but seeing this updated Sierra really makes me fall in love with this truck all over again. Definitely my dream truck.
I ordered a Denali Ultimate back in December. No word yet from the dealer.
By the time you get it you will be receiving the recall notice
@@atg1338 That's something to think about. Wonder will it have as many recalls as the Ford I owned...
Definitely one of my dream trucks now. I'd definitely tow my horse with that beauty.
I’d have my horse riding inside with me if I could afford something so beautiful 😅
@@kingjay239 yeah but get a trailer first silly. My horse is damn gorgeous too but I don't think she'd give a damn. Besides she's low maintenance anyways.
You are my go-to for all car reviews. You take your time, hit all the right areas, and speak frankly when it comes to your opinion. Thank you and keep up the great work.
That’s a nice truck I’m still happy with my 2021 at4 3.0 duramax.
Are you having any mechanical issues with your truck? I’m really concerned about the problems that people have had with these trucks before. I’m currently thinking on buying either the 6.2 or the 2021 tundra for its reliability if the gmc trucks don’t hold up that well without breaking down
@@Jesus-yr7nk only issue I had was the no crank twice but I filmed it the second time and showed the dealer. They reprogrammed the way it starts. It added a crank and slowed down the way it starts it hasn’t had any issue since. My co worker has the same engine and had the crank issue so I told him what to do. Frankly quite a few vehicles I’ve owned has a issue or two or a recall. Other than the very very rare crank issue before it was fixed was the only issue I had with the truck. I’ve seen lifter issues on the 5.3 and 6.2 but nothing that could t be fixed in short order.
Been driving the Ultimate for three weeks. Wow. Great vehicle. I have always owned GMC Yukon Denali XL. Drives like a dream. Luxury. Love the navigation system, cameras. Beautiful interior. Lots to learn. Buy one. You’ll not regret it!
I'm hoping they'll make the move to this new style interior on the 2500/3500 trucks. Such a gorgeous exterior already, paired with this interior would be the best looking truck on the market.
With Diesel prices being what they are at least in Pennsylvania I'm not sure you'll actually save money on fuel.
Gas prices are up too
You’re my favorite vehicle presenter to watch. Love how you get to the point yet cover the details without rambling. Lol. Well done sir 👍
This guy is a natural, best car reviewer i ever seen
I was so surprised to hear him say a lot of people don't like black wheels! I felt like my bf and I were the only people who don't like black wheels! It's nice to know we aren't alone lol. I do love the black wheels on this Denali because they aren't completely black and the accents really make it blingy.
My wife and I both hate sold black wheels, especially if they are high gloss.
Black wheels are wack…yuk
@@toddprater14 Yes they are!
@@stephenmitchum5864 I agree!
13:16 the button you press when somebody farts inside your car 😂 innovation at its finest 👌
The interior was the biggest thing holding me back from getting a Denali. Now it's unnecessary dealer markups.
That's every dealer
Hopefully production picks back up
@@Bigfoothawk Exactly, every adult with a functioning brain knows that dealer markups aren’t just a GM thing.
@@mybro727 it's a GM thing for me because that's the truck I want.
@@daeladub That doesn’t make it a GM thing, and as soon as you go across the street to the Ford or RAM dealership you’ll quickly realize this. Now if you choose to believe it’s only GM because that’s the only manufacturer you feel should take the heat for “unnecessary markups” then just say _that._
I love the new interior! I do wish they would’ve put the ventilated rear seats and panoramic sunroof in the new truck though. And I actually like the exterior body style better on the pre-refresh model from 2019.
Rob always has such a great attitude. Sofyan is lucky to have him.
Huge improvement on the interior styling. Great review Sofyan! There was a HUGE panel gap between the steering wheel and the infotainment screen @ 10:31…..GEESH 😬
The gap of wood where the upper glove box opens has a huge, un-aligned gap as well...
@@hellkitty1014 Trying way too hard.
I thought the passenger was a junkie for a minute lol
That 6.2L Big Boy V8 Is My Favorite Engine.
I’m ok with standard size sunroof. You have to consider crash ratings and structural rigidity. These are important considerations. Just because other brands do something it doesn’t me GM has to follow. Pano sunroof also cuts into rear seat head room.
What's their deal with no panoramic roof in this thing? Excellent review though per usual.
I’m guessing because R&D didn’t have enough time to research if the body could handle a pano roof under certain conditions and flexing
@@corvettez0695 That makes sense. Thank you.
It's a Chevy, they're always at least a decade behind with torsional rigidity.
@@corvettez0695 Many different suv’s have it from GM, I think it has more to do with supply currently, that’s my opinion.
Its just the fact that GM is the only truck maker to not offer it. Even the Titan added it on its refresh in 2020.
27:28 had me cracking up 😂
GM wasn't one of the first to offer a digital rear mirror, they were the first. Remember GM had to lobby Congress in order to use the technology.
Exactly, not to mention this was back when the RAM, Ford and Toyota folks were calling it “another useless gimmick from GM”. 😂
@@mybro727 and it was actually Nissan who invented it, not GM. They were just the first to use it in the US in the 2017 Cadillac XT5.
@@XploreAz They also beat Nissan to the U.S. market with their own rendition of the technology. What’s your point? Do you have one?
@@mybro727 Nissan has had that technology on the market years before GM. They just weren't sold in the US. That's my point.
@@XploreAz Smh. The point actually was *who offered it first.* Here in the U.S. which happens to be the market we’re talking about, GM was the first to offer the feature hence the requirement for them to get the ok from the U.S. government. Better question, who is known for the feature? GM. Exactly.
The dark chrome on the grille looks great.
I wish the Denali Ultimate was an AT4 and Denali combined. The AT4X is sweet but that truck was also a bit of a letdown. They needed to make sure they beat the cheaper ZR2 in at least off-road capability but they didn't!
Yes! This is all I been waiting for this one and I gonna be praying that I will able to afford one of these pick-up trucks like this someday especially the color on this pick-up truck as well. Overall, excellent job and review sofyan.
You will own one some day!
Looks so much better than it’s Chevy counterpart
I REMEMBER WHEN PICKUPS WERE FOR WORK ... AND NOT BEING A COUNTRIFIED PIMP!
This is what a lot of middle management guys are driving now instead of BMWs
@@ahastar1141 yea it’s a status symbol. These are soooo expensive. Plus you can haul stuff in them
I mean you can buy a basic trim truck and they cost somewhere in the $30K range. I don't get this argument. They have all the different trim levels on almost every truck out there. Pick the one you want. This isn't the 80s where trucks drove like shit and could barely haul half the weight trucks do now. They are more of a work truck than ever before.
Beautiful truck.. Still would perfer the at4x.. Would def suit me better
I don’t even like GMC vehicles but this one looks really good
Thanks for sharing!! I love everything about the Ultimate but, GM needs to use the lower front end trim of the AT4X instead of the full chrome trim. It would look 100% better with the Vader dark chrome. Thanks again, Great Job!! 👍
Sofyan please show vehicle light controls and other switches off to the left hand side of the steering wheel and the SOS and other buttons on the ceiling of the vehicle clearly. Make sure you cover these details on the next line-up of cars to come, Sofyan!!
Gmc was the best looking truck and now they updated interior to the best. But I don't have 85K 😔
Fun fact. GM is actually number one in truck sells but because they split the models up amongst the internal brands
(Chevy-GMC-Cadillac) each sell does not combine for total sells like the F-150.
Glad to see GM making the Sierra a little more competitive outside of utility, paying Cadillac money for a slightly heavier Silverado was starting to be hard to justify
been waiting for this review
That's a really nice truck..... I'll have to get it when it's used
Rightt
I don't like that these automakers have gotten rid of CD players, many people have CDs, ( not Gen Xrs), but they're not the ones buying Silverado Denali's, back in the day, they phased out cassette players very slowly.
Great walk around
I find the Ram much better looking inside and out.
I like this truck. I like the old school V8 more the V6 of the Tundra and Ford . Thanks for the content.
Base Denali is the way to go.
Does it have an automatic moon roof \panoramic view ...?
Great video
The gmc is technically #1 because it's basically a Silverado and together they beat the f150 sales everytime.
Thank you Rob for your hard work!
Diesel AT4 would be my choice I don't get the point of trucks with huge rims. It look really good tho!
Well you more you could just put bigger tires smaller rims on the denali having the best of both worlds
2022 GMC Sierra Denali Ultimate looks great - much better than Silverado ... Interior is first rate ! Slainte' ! Cheers !
@Sofyan what kind of shoes are the ones you're wearing in this video? I like them
And for 10k down and 995.00 per month for 72 Months what a freaking bargain 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah they are expensive.
If this is a refresh does that mean there is a new design coming in 2024?
Leave it to gm to FINALLY give us a big 13.4" screen......but only can use like 8" of it. 🤣 I mean seriously, that card off to the right is useless, and sure would be nice to have full view camera on it.
Beautiful truck, wish my 2020 had this interior, but jesus, no pano sunroof and no auto windows up and for all 4?… why?!?! lol..
this are the same electric running boards from the silverado high country?
in the siverado when they close it is a popping sound especially noticeable when u get in and close the doors then the running boards close , my dealer said that is normal even in oldest models have that problem,
what can u said about it.
The panoramic sunroof will require a whole new chassis according to a GM engineer. The 2022 truck is just a very nice mid-cycle refresh. Mainly for the interior
Best truck out there!
Why is the power step so thick? Seems like it could have been slimmer for a more modern look.
Oh ya big interior refresh and Best of the best review team
The seats are just soo hard. Ford owns the seat comfort in the limited and platinum trims.
Hey, great content as usual, but if you can - please tell me what is the jacket you’re wearing, looks great 👍
For the Sierra Denali Ultimate I will say that is "If the Cadillac has one Pick-Up Truck".
Does this model offer a roof rack option?
You made my google tell me a joke😂😂
Denali Ultimare max towing is NOT 13k pounds. Truck requires max tow package to get the 13k which is not available on Denali.
If 3500/350 come out would you ever go over those or recommend a channel that might talk about future news of those trucks. I pull a RV that’s to heavy for this
Great video don't think need a side kick my opinion
I want to know if you will be reviewing the all - new 2022 Nissan Rogue 1.5 turbo with 3 cylinder engine. I'm eagerly waiting for your review of that car
GMC always Nice!
I like my ram it dosent honk horn everytime step out and i can lock it while its running
Don’t care about the panoramic sunroof, but miss the 12v outlet (for cameras/radar detectors).
That must be one of the most stylish trucks although a ram still impresses more
Beautiful truck
Like it better then the Silverado 👍
This is a Sierra Denali Ultimate where's the speakers in the headrest because the Yukon Denali Ultimate has speakers in the headrest someone needs to look into this
Thanks Rob for all your hard work!!! We appreciate you!!!
Guys gravity is real don't be 300lbs/drive trucks
Surprised they didn't got mild hybrid but they do have the diesel...LOL
it's a dad truck!
You said it was in its 5th gen when there have only been 4 generations since 1999
Very Nice Bro! Get Good People!
That front looks good!
It looks better than the sister Silverado diesel which looks HIDEOUS.
I get the feeling, running Baja is probably not your 2nd nature. 😂
Wish it was 2,000 lbs heavier to qualify for tax depreciation, I'm thinking to purchase as my company truck.
Did anyone noticed that there are no grab handles above the doors? Not so much fun on the country roads for passengers.
Annoys me to know end when they don’t extend apple CarPlay to the entire screen. Makes no sense
please stop mentioning you're getting a massage, Nice truck. I also have a 2022 and pray my engine doesn't die on me.
This vs tundra capstone?
Is that a gun he's taking apart during the review?
We wish they would offer 4 wheel steering.
I can’t believe they didn’t put a panoramic moonroof
The cab structure was not built to accept it. This was only a refresh, when they redesign the cab they will for surly add it.
So Sofyan is there an infotainment screen size that is too big for you? Every year it seams last years screen is now too small. If 3 years ago an 8” screen more than legible why do desire bigger and bigger screens? I do love your reviews but it just seems you harp on the usable screen size too much.
nice

Hyundai should make a pickup truck version of pallisade
