J.D. Power recently bestowed upon the 2024 GMC Sierra 2500HD the title of "Best Large Heavy Duty Pickup of the Year." Beyond its commendable capacity for tackling tough tasks, this formidable truck boasts a host of premium amenities. According to J.D. Power, the 2024 model exhibits refreshed styling that enhances its overall appeal, solidifying its position ahead of competitors. Here are the key reasons behind its accolade:
Enhanced Powertrains
The 2024 GMC Sierra 2500HD stands out as an even more formidable towing and hauling machine. Both available powertrains now incorporate an Allison 10-speed automatic transmission, ensuring optimal performance. While the gasoline V8 engine proves robust for most tasks, those seeking additional power can opt for GMC's upgraded Duramax diesel V8 engine. Equipped with a new turbocharger, this engine delivers an impressive 470 horsepower and 975 lb-ft of torque.
Off-Road Capability
The Sierra 2500HD proves its mettle in conquering challenging off-road terrain. The AT4 trim, designed for off-road enthusiasts, features standard rugged upgrades such as skid plates and an off-road suspension.
Revitalized Exterior Design
Few pickups in its class exude the boldness of the new Sierra 2500HD. The updated front fascia makes a bold statement, complemented by new LED projector headlamps with captivating animated sequences. Fresh wheel designs and a range of captivating exterior colors, including Titanium Rush Metallic and Dynamic Blue Metallic, further contribute to its striking appearance.
Luxurious Interior
Traveling in the GMC Sierra 2500HD offers a luxurious experience, particularly in the all-new Denali Ultimate trim. This upscale variant features open-pore Paldao wood accents, full-grain leather upholstery, and 16-way power front seats with massage features. The vehicle is equipped with the latest in-vehicle technologies, including Google built-in, a 13.4-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, and a 15.0-inch head-up display.
Advanced Towing Features
The Sierra 2500HD simplifies the towing experience with advanced features. Adaptive Cruise Control with Trailering adjusts speed based on traffic, and Transparent Trailer View technology helps drivers navigate blind spots.
