Starting at $69,200, this three-row powerhouse offers three robust engine options: a standard 355-horsepower 5.3L V8, an available 420-horsepower 6.2L V8, and the efficient Duramax 3.0L turbodiesel producing 305 horsepower with impressive 644-mile range in XL configurations. The diesel achieves 21/26 mpg city/highway, significantly outperforming gas engines. Both standard and extended XL wheelbases accommodate up to nine passengers with class-competitive cargo capacity reaching 144.5 cubic feet in XL variants.

Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard, complemented by wireless charging and dual 120-volt outlets. Available Super Cruise hands-free driving technology transforms highway journeys, while comprehensive safety systems include adaptive cruise control, HD Surround Vision 360-degree cameras, and front/rear automatic emergency braking for confident family transportation.
