GMC Dealer First Look: The 2024 GMC Sierra 1500 Unveiled

Versatile Performance

Giving you plenty of power for both work and play, this edition has multiple engines available that range from a turbocharged 2.7-liter TurboMax engine that delivers 310 horsepower to a 420-horsepower 6.2-liter V8. If you have a camper or plan to tow a heavy trailer, you’ll be more than equipped with the 13,300-pound maximum towing capacity that this truck offers, and on long-distance journeys, up to 29 MPG is achievable on highways.

Both rear-wheel and four-wheel-drive models are available, and when opting for four-wheel drive, automatic-locking rear differential, skid plates, and other options for off-roading are available. There’s also the Sport Mode Dual Active Exhaust, which enhances performance at high speeds while giving the truck a more aggressive sound.

Luxury and Convenience

With a cabin designed with style and luxury, this pickup offers impressive interior features like heated and ventilated front seats in leather trim and other material options in a variety of styles, a comfy bench seat in the back with a 60/40 split-folding design, a power sunroof, dual-zone climate control, and many others.

Outside, you’ll find performing work in and around the truck to be easier with the perimeter lighting and MultiPro Tailgate, the latter of which has six different functions, including gate load stops and an integrated step with its own lighting. Adding to this convenience are many different assist step options, including a pair of high-clearance off-road ones, as well as the automatically activating rain-sensing wipers.

High-Tech Inside and Out

Technology is also taken to the next level, with standout features like the adjustable Head-Up Display for the windshield that lets you see driving information directly in front of you and the GMC Premium Infotainment System with its expansive 13.4-inch diagonal full-color touchscreen. There’s also a convenient Wi-Fi hotspot that everyone can connect to, and the 360-degree HD Surround Vision camera system is perfect for trailering, parking, and inspecting nearby obstacles when driving off-road.

On highways, you’ll know when other vehicles are driving next to you with Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert. Forward Collision Alert and Automatic Emergency Braking can help you avoid collisions when there’s not enough space, and the IntelliBeam Auto High Beams conveniently adapt to ambient lighting conditions without any driver input.

Regardless of whether you’re using the truck for everyday commutes, work, long-distance journeys, or off-road adventures, it’s ready to meet all needs, so contact us today at Bommarito Automotive Group to see it up close and take it for a test drive.
