The 2024 GMC Sierra 3500 HD has arrived and is ready to be driven off the forecourt of your local GMC dealership. GMC has given this reliable truck an attractive makeover and installed more power and torque to deliver a workhorse of a pickup.
Choice of Six Trims
This heavy-duty pickup is available in six trims to suit all budgets. Pro is the base trim, followed by SLE, SLT, AT4, Denali. The range is rounded off with the impressive Denali Ultimate.
Engine and Transmission
The Sierra 3500 HD comes with a 6.6-liter gasoline V8 engine delivering 401 horsepower and 464 pounds of torque. GMC has traded in the old 6-speed transmission for an Allison-certified 10-speed transmission. For those wanting more power, the engine can be upgraded to a 6.6 liter Duramax Turbo-Diesel V8 which cranks out 470 horsepower and 975 pound-feet of torque.
Payload and Pulling Power
Payload varies between 4,162 pounds and 7,290 pounds depending on whether you opt for the crew, double, or regular cab. Conventional towing capacity maxes out at 20,000 pounds. However, with the diesel engine, regular cab, and rear-wheel drive, these colossal machines are capable of pulling up to 36,000 pounds.
Multi-Pro Tailgate
Standard on trims above the Pro, the Multi-Pro Tailgate is a showstopping feature that is every tailgater’s dream. Multi-Pro Tailgate lets you configure the tailgate into six different positions to improve loading and access and give you the ability to turn it into a work surface or bench.
The Denali Ultimate
The Denali Ultimate deserves special mention as this trim is in a class of its own. Coming as standard is the Turbo-Diesel V8. The leather, wood, and microfiber interior is finished off with a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and full-grain leather front seats which are heated, ventilated, and 16-way adjustable.
Also included as standard are a telescoping steering column, adaptive cruise control, in-vehicle trailering app, a 12.3-inch diagonal driver information center, and a 13.4-inch infotainment system, from which you can belt out your favorite playlist on the Bose 12-speaker premium audio system.
Safety
Every heavy-duty Sierra 3500 HD features a variety of safety features and driver-assist tech to keep both driver and passengers safe. These include six airbags, buckle-to-drive, forward collision alert, lane departure warning, auto emergency braking, and following distance indicator. Adaptive cruise control is an available feature for all trims, which can also be paired with a trailering addon that adjusts braking distances and accounts for drag when towing a trailer.
