6.2 in AT4?

[johnnyace]

Any insight as to when the 6.2l will be available for the Yukon XL AT4?  Hopefully 2022?

I thought I read that the engine won't fit with the fascia on the AT4 given the approach angle on the AT4 vs Denali lower front bumper

Thanks for your response.  I read something similar on GMauthority but they mentioned the diesel not fitting, not the 6.2.

 

"While the new fascia looks great and comes with a higher approach angle, adding to the AT4’s off-road worthiness, it also obstructs the intercooler and intercooler piping needed for the new 3.0L I-6 LM2 Duramax turbodiesel engine. Thus, the engine will not be offered on the AT4 trim level."

ah, you might be correct. I could have sworn I read the same about the AT4, but I could be wrong. I would like the Denali interior with 6.2 with an AT4 front end. I was thinking about just purchasing an AT4 fascia and swapping it, but I thought I read that it would fit. I would be happy to be proven wrong.
