Denali shocks/ride?

[steve8]

I have not driven a denali myself, but wondering about the quality of the ride. I know people complain about the bouncy ride and a lot of people swap out for bilsteins on slt's etc. 

Just curious if the denali shocks solve the problem as well.

Also, are the bouncy complaints on just the off road shocks or standard shocks too?

Thx.

The Denali has the adaptive ride control (ARC) suspension which uses sensors to dynamically adjust itself depending on road condition and drive mode selection. I drove the 2020 Denali back-to-back with an SLT and AT4 and noticed the Denali felt more planted and secure. The ride was a little smoother, but not much. It still rides like a truck, just a very well controlled one.

My 2016 Denali had a fantastic ride and my 2019 is even better.  No bouncing.  Smooth as butter.

If comparing ride on different vehicles, don't forget that wheel/tire package, as well as tire pressure also impact the ride.

'20 Denali has a nice ride with ARC as stated above. No need to upgrade/change out.  Not sure about other trims ride quality.
