GMC is making a statement with the introduction of the first-ever Sierra EV, which marks a turning point for the premium truck brand as it expands its portfolio of all-electric trucks.
Offering full pickup capability and a GM-estimated 400 miles of range on a full charge, the unique features of the 2024 Sierra EV Denali Edition 1 are only made possible by its dedicated EV truck platform.
“This is the Denali of EVs — and a truck that is every bit a GMC,” said Duncan Aldred, Vice President of Global Buick and GMC. “That means it leaves nothing on the table when it comes to hauling, towing, and overall power while unlocking even more possibilities around what a GMC pickup can offer.”
Heading into 2023, GMC will be the only brand that currently offers three all-electric trucks, with the Sierra EV joining the GMC Hummer EV Pickup and SUV. The foundation of these three trucks is GM’s Ultium Platform, which enables incredible versatility and world-class performance in an all-electric truck.
The Ultium battery pack on the 2024 Sierra EV Denali Edition 1 enables its estimated driving range of 400 miles on a full charge. However, it is more than just a power source – it is also a structural element of the vehicle that contributes to its overall strength, durability, and performance. In addition to these benefits, the placement of the battery pack also lowers the truck’s center of gravity, which also enhances ride comfort.
Representing a new era for the brand’s design language, the 2024 Sierra EV Denali Edition 1 has a bold, futuristic aesthetic that includes a new interpretation of the GMC grille. The Ultium Platform was seamlessly integrated into the truck’s body structure, enabling GMC to be more expressive in the overall design.
Equipped with an integrated 5-foot, 11-inch cargo bed, the Sierra EV Denali Edition 1 will be offered exclusively in a Crew Cab model, with its storage capacity maximized by the innovative MultiPro Midgate, which, when open, provides 9 feet of storage between the cab and the tailgate.
“The 2024 Sierra EV Denali Edition 1 is just the beginning,” said Aldred. “It will offer customers our very latest in technology, capability, and luxury delivered in a way only GMC can do — with much more to come. From the HUMMER EV supertruck to the first-ever Sierra EV, GMC continues to write the next chapter in its future as a premium truck and SUV brand.”
The 2024 Sierra EV Denali Edition 1 will be available in early 2024, with GMC planning to introduce the Sierra EV AT4 and Elevation trims in the 2025 model year.
