GMC unveiled the first-ever Sierra EV, marking a turning point for the premium truck brand. Led by the 2024 Sierra EV Denali Edition 1, it offers uncompromised capability, and a GM estimated range of 400 miles on a full charge. The GMC Sierra EV also has unique features made possible only by its dedicated EV platform.
The 2024 Sierra EV Denali Edition 1 will be available in early 2024. GMC will introduce the Sierra EV AT4 and Elevation trims in the 2025 model year. The 2024 Sierra EV Denali Edition 1’s Ultium battery pack enabled its estimated range of 400 miles. It is also a structural element of the vehicle, contributing to its overall strength and performance. Front and rear electric drive units channel a GM-estimated 754 horsepower and 785 lb-ft of torque to the wheels via an e4WD system in Max Power mode, giving the truck exceptional traction and capability in almost every driving situation.
The 2024 Sierra EV Denali Edition 1 also features Power Station Pro, which allows the truck to be used as a mobile power source in multiple situations. Additionally, with the available Ultium Power Bar accessory, the Sierra EV offers 10.2 kW of off-board power through up to 10 outlets. The off-board power capability means that with the proper configuration, a user can collectively power a home’s necessities for up to 21 days. Regarding charging, the 2024 Sierra EV Denali features 800V DC Public Fast Charging capability of up to 250 kW, enabling approximately 100 miles of range to be added in 10 minutes.
GMC Sierra Denali EV Technology: Details
As expected, the GMC Sierra Denali EV is loaded with technology that starts when the driver enters the vehicle. With Hands-Free Start, the truck turns on after the driver enters with a key fob. Once in the vehicle, the driver simply has to put their foot on the brake and put the vehicle into gear. The driver is also welcomed by the bold animation of the Sierra EV Denali Edition 1’s multiple high-resolution display screens, the center point of which is a large, 16.8-inch-diagonal freeform touchscreen. Additionally, the central 16.8-inch diagonal screen is paired with an 11-inch diagonal reconfigurable driver information center and a multi-color Head Up Display offering 14 diagonal inches of view. The driver can gain even more confidence behind the wheel with the help of up to 14 available camera views to enhance visibility around the vehicle.
The Sierra EV Denali Edition 1 also features Super Cruise, 4-wheel steering, Crab Walk, variable regen on-demand braking, and one-pedal driving. In addition, as seen on the Chevy Silverado EV, the Sierra EV Denali also features the Midgate, which can provide 9 feet of storage between the cab and the tailgate.
Deliveries of the 2024 GMC Sierra EV Denali Edition 1 are expected to begin in early 2024, with a starting MSRP of $107,000 (plus destination). Reservations for the all-electric luxury truck are open now on the GMC website, requiring a $100 deposit.
