The 2024 GMC Sierra 2500 is a professional-grade truck with heavy-duty DNA, available now at your local GMC dealer. Read on to learn more about the Sierra’s important specs when it comes to power and versatility.
5 Key Specs of the 2024 GMC Sierra 2500 Available at Your GMC Dealer
Heavy-Duty V8 Engine
You’ll understand how powerful this 8-cylinder block is when you watch a truck this big go 0-60 mph in 6.5 seconds. That’s because the Sierra 2500 comes standard with a 6.6L V8 gas engine, which has 401 hp and produces 464 lb-ft of torque. If you opt for the legendary 6.6L Duramax turbo diesel V8 engine instead, it comes with 470 hp that can output a monstrous 975 lb-ft of torque.
Both V8s are paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. This configuration lets the engine operate closer to its optimal RPM, maximizing power, torque, and efficiency. The result? Better acceleration when the Sierra is unloaded and while it’s carrying heavy cargo uphill.
Payload Capacity
The Sierra 2500 is a versatile workhorse for transporting inventory, goods, and job site gear. It offers a generous 10 inches of ground clearance in the front and rear. A standard 6’9″ bed or an available 8′ bed translates to a cargo volume of 69.5 to 83.5 cubic feet. Combined with a maximum available payload of just over 4,000 pounds, this truck is ready for anything you throw at it.
Best-in-Class Towing Muscle
With a Suspension Package standard on all models, the Sierra has been tuned to handle heavy action. Its best-in-class towing can handle up to 22,070 lbs. That’s right, that’s over 10 tons of pulling power you can rely on to tow horse trailers, boats, and even large RVs.
14 Camera Views
A road presence this large means you’ll want to make sure you can see all around. That’s why the Sierra 2500 comes with 14 camera views which let you see virtually every angle from your dash. These include:
- Enhanced transparent trailer view
- Hitch view
- Cargo bed view
- Picture-in-picture view
- Multiple top-down views
- Multiple front, side, and rear views
Trailer Assist Technology
The crown jewel of the Sierra 2500’s technology is its impressive In-Vehicle Trailering App. This system gives you trailer security notifications, side blind zone alerts, and even a checklist before you hit the road. The app has too many great features to list here, but if you’re serious about towing heavy loads, the Sierra’s tech can’t be beat.
There’s a model of the Sierra 2500 for everyone, whether you’re looking for the tried-and-true SLT to the off-roading AT4X Edition. Contact us today at Granite Buick GMC in Rapid City, SD to come in for a test drive.
