Passive keyless entry

[Derek033091]

I have two questions about the 2022 refresh and  it sure where to post them.

does anyone know if the Denali has passive keyless entry? Where the truck lights up and doors unlock as you walk to it with the key. 
also, are the seats in ultimate any more comfortable than the other Denali trucks?

I don't think any GM truck (not SUV) has passive locks. You still have to push the button on the handle. As far as the seats go. I think the internals are the same the leather changes is all you get there.

2022 refresh OM:

 

Keyless Access Operation

 

The Keyless Access system allows for doors and the tailgate to be accessed without
pressing the RKE transmitter button. The RKE transmitter must be within 1 m (3 ft) of the
tailgate or door being opened. If the vehicle has this feature, there will be a button on the outside door handles.

 

Keyless Access can be programmed to unlock all doors on the first lock/unlock press from the driver door. Keyless

 

Unlocking can also be turned off.

I would say based on my experience with my new ultimate  vs my at4 i had yes the seats are way better but that's due to the fact you have way more adjustment 16 way vs 12 way. You can move the lumbar to the correct spot and you also have shoulder, back bolster adjustment, plus the massaging feature.

 

For the unlock like others have said you need to push the button on the door

One thing I don't understand about the programming on the trucks is why the interior lights and puddles lights don't come on as you walk up.  My 2022 Tahoe Z71 would turn on the interior lights as I got close to the vehicle (not the puddles lights unfortunately) before I unloacked it, but my '22 AT4X does not. 

 

I'm also missing the footwell lighting and the glovebox light that was mounted to the lid instead of lower in the glovebox.  The Tahoe also had a small sliding door to the right of the center stack for sunglasses as well as an unlock button for the rear doors.

 

I like my new truck, but it feels like there were a number of corners cut considering the $80k asking price.

pretty sure it is due to the chip shortage so they removed whole bunch of things. my 2020 AT4 has buttons for all four exterior handles.
