Price and cost per week
BMW X2 sDrive20i
$72,800
RRP, before on-road costs. Checked 29 Oct 2026
$80,053 drive-away in VIC, as published by BMW Australia
About $347 a week in repayments ($80,053 drive-away; assumes $5,000 deposit, 5 yrs at 7.5% p.a.). An estimate, not a loan offer.
GMC Yukon Denali
$174,990
RRP, before on-road costs. Checked 1 Oct 2026
No published drive-away price on our record.
About $786 a week in repayments ($174,990 RRP, before on-road costs; assumes $5,000 deposit, 5 yrs at 7.5% p.a.). An estimate, not a loan offer.
The BMW X2 starts $102,190 lower on RRP.
Matching the GMC Yukon's standard equipment means adding extra-cost options to the BMW X2, and 3 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.

Feature Showdown
The BMW X2 features a 10.7-inch touchscreen paired with a 10.3-inch digital dash, while the GMC Yukon gets a 16.8-inch display and 11-inch instruments. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard across both.
The GMC Yukon counters with panoramic roof, ventilated seats and Bose audio. Which feature set matters more depends on your daily routine and priorities.
Interior trim differs: the BMW X2 gets veganza (synthetic) upholstery while the GMC Yukon offers leather. Climate control is 2-zone in the BMW X2 and 3-zone in the GMC Yukon.
Equipment few rivals have, on either carShowHide
Drivetrain
The BMW X2 uses a Petrol producing 125kW and 280Nm of torque, sent through a 7-speed automatic (steptronic with gearshift paddles) to a FWD layout. It covers the 0-100km/h sprint in 8.3 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 125kW. For most buyers, the way each car feels day-to-day matters more than outright acceleration.
Space & Comfort
The BMW X2 measures 4,554mm long on a 2,692mm wheelbase, 783mm 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 1,800kg. That 1,828kg difference matters if you regularly hitch up.
The GMC Yukon turns in a 12.4 m circle, kerb to kerb; the BMW X2's turning circle is not on our record.
Cost to own
We do not hold a like-for-like fuel or energy figure for both cars, so we do not cost them against each other.
Warranty: 5 years / Unlimited (BMW X2) and 3 years / 100k km (GMC Yukon).
Where each one leads
The BMW X2: the lower starting price ($72,800 against $174,990) and the longer warranty (5 years against 3).
The GMC Yukon: more power (313kW against 125kW) and the higher braked towing limit (3,628kg against 1,800kg).
The Verdict
BMW X2 scores higher, 60 vs 50
The BMW X2 scores 60 to the GMC Yukon's 50 on the CarSorted Score, and leads 2 of the 4 spec rows that separate them, at the lower price. The biggest gaps: value (BMW X2 ahead by 39 points), reliability (BMW X2 ahead by 23 points), performance (GMC Yukon ahead by 18 points). Warranty: 5 years on the BMW X2, 3 on the GMC Yukon.

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.
