Matching the GMC Yukon's standard equipment means adding at least $5,700 in options to the Audi Q6 Sportback e-tron, and 2 are priced only inside packages whose price the manufacturer doesn't publish, so the true gap is larger than the sticker difference suggests.
On-road costs (stamp duty, registration, CTP and dealer delivery) depend on your state and the dealer; ask for a written drive-away price before you sign.

The GMC Yukon counters with head-up display, panoramic roof, ventilated seats and Bose audio. Which feature set matters more depends on your daily routine and priorities.

Equipment few rivals have, on either carShowHide
Drivetrain
The Audi Q6 Sportback e-tron uses a Electric producing 185kW and 450Nm of torque, sent through a single-speed to a RWD layout. It covers the 0-100km/h sprint in 7.6 seconds.
The GMC Yukon responds with a 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 with Dynamic Fuel Management making 313kW and 624Nm, paired to a 10-speed automatic driving all four wheels.
The GMC Yukon has the clear power advantage at 313kW vs 185kW. For most buyers, the way each car feels day-to-day matters more than outright acceleration.
Space & Comfort
The Audi Q6 Sportback e-tron measures 4,771mm long on a 2,899mm wheelbase, 566mm shorter than the GMC Yukon at 5,337mm (3,071mm wheelbase). The longer wheelbase on the GMC Yukon generally means more rear legroom.
For towing, the GMC Yukon leads with a 3,628kg braked capacity vs 2,000kg. That 1,628kg difference matters if you regularly hitch up.
Neither U-turns in one sweep on a 7 m local street (both need a three-point turn); the Audi Q6 Sportback e-tron's turning circle is 0.8 m tighter, 11.6 m against 12.4 m kerb to kerb. The street estimate is indicative, worked from the published turning circles.

The GMC Yukon: more power (313kW against 185kW) and the higher braked towing limit (3,628kg against 2,000kg).

How to read this page. Prices, specifications, ANCAP ratings, warranty, the CarSorted Score and the verdict come from our records for the grades shown, sourced from the manufacturers' Australian documents, and change when those records change; the date each was last checked is printed under the headline. Prices are recommended retail prices before on-road costs unless marked drive-away. A plug-in hybrid's fuel figure is labelled with its basis: with a full battery (the certified combined figure) or as a hybrid (battery depleted). Charging and running costs are estimates on the stated assumptions. Always confirm price and specification with the manufacturer or dealer before you buy. CarSorted does not accept payment for recommendations.
