GMC introduced the first-ever Sierra EV, which it noted "marks a turning point for the premium truck brand, as it expands its portfolio of all-electric trucks."

Led by the 2024 GMC Sierra EV Denali Edition 1, it offers uncompromising pickup capability, a GM-estimated 400 miles of range on a full charge and unique features made possible only 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.”

GMC noted it will be the only brand to offer three all-electric trucks, with the Sierra EV joining the GMC HUMMER EV Pickup and SUV2. Underpinning these three trucks is GM’s Ultium Platform.

The 2024 Sierra EV Denali Edition 1 will be available at launch in early 2024. GMC will introduce the Sierra EV AT4 and Elevation trims in the 2025 model year.

With the Power Station Pro, standard on Sierra EV Denali Edition 1, the Ultium battery can power essential devices and services, when properly equipped, for up to 21 days.

How is the 2024 GMC Sierra EV Breaking Ground? 

According to GMC, the 2024 Sierra EV Denali Edition 1 "breaks new ground for GMC" in these key areas:

Next-Gen Pickup Truck Power

  • GM-estimated range of 400 miles on a full charge.

  • GM-estimated 754 horsepower and 785 lb.-ft. of torque in Max Power mode.

  • Onboard Power Station Pro turns Sierra EV Denali into a mobile power source, with up to 10.2kW of off-board power that can be used in a variety of situations.

  • 800 Volt DC Public Fast Charging capable at up to 350kW, enabling up to 100 miles of range in approximately 10 minutes.

Purposeful Technology - Inside & Out

  • 16.8-inch-diagonal freeform infotainment touchscreen — the largest ever in a Sierra

  • Trailering-capable Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance technology on more than 400,000 miles of compatible roads in the U.S. and Canada

  • Customizable drive modes, including Max Power mode, which enables 0-60 mph acceleration in less than 4.5 seconds (GM estimate)

  • Air Ride Adaptive Suspension that both enables a more comfortable ride as well as the ability to raise or lower the truck by approximately 2 inches

  • EV-enabled propulsion technologies including Regen on Demand Braking, One-Pedal Driving and 4-Wheel Steer with CrabWalk

From precision maneuvers to expansive capability, Sierra EV Denali is engineered to expand your definition of versatility.

“Grille-to-Gate” Versatility

  • Versatility and next-generation GMC functional design enabled by the Ultium Platform

  • GMC-first MultiPro Midgate expandable bed offers room for hauling longer items, while still enabling room for a rear-seat passenger

  • eTrunk increases cargo room capability with lockable, weatherproof compartment at the front of the vehicle

  • Up to 9,500 pounds (4,309 kg) max towing capacity

“This truck is everything customers know about the Sierra, but is so much more,” said Nichole Kraatz, chief engineer, GM Battery Electric Trucks. “Leveraging GM’s dedicated Ultium pickup platform, it takes the Sierra franchise to new benchmarks of capability, versatility and luxury — all in a zero-tailpipe-emissions package.”

GMC Sierra EV - Coming in 2024

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 DFC). Further details for the full range of Sierra EV models will be announced closer to the start of production, with MSRPs starting around $50,000 (plus DFC).

Reservations for the Sierra EV Denali Edition 1 opened to the public on Oct. 20, 2022.

The 2024 GMC Sierra EV Denali Edition 1 will be assembled with domestically and globally sourced parts at GM’s Factory ZERO Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly in Michigan — a facility repurposed and retooled with a $2.2-billion investment devoted to EV production — alongside the GMC HUMMER EV Pickup and SUV. Future Sierra EVs also will be assembled with domestically and globally sourced parts at GM’s Lake Orion Assembly in Michigan.

Luxury isn't GMC's only focus - earlier in 2022, extreme capability, custom AEV styling and core enhancements were added to the GMC Sierra 1500 AT4X.
