The publicly traded water, wastewater, and natural gas provider in the U.S. is launching a pilot program to electrify its two most popular commercial GM vehicle platforms with the XLH hybrid electric drive system.
GM is recalling approximately 38,048 model-year 2017-2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 and 3500 and GMC Sierra 2500 and 3500 truck due to seat belt torsion bar issues.
The XLP platform is expected to begin shipping on select configurations of the Chevrolet and GMC Silverado/Sierra 2500 HD and 3500 HD pickup trucks in the first quarter of 2021, and Chevrolet and GMC 3500 and 4500 cutaway chassis in the second quarter of 2021.
Certain 2020 model-year Chevrolet Silverado 2500 and 3500 and GMC Sierra 2500 and 3500 vehicles are being recalled due to hood-latch striker wires that may not have been heat-treated properly, possibly causing them to fracture.
With a max tow rating of 35,500 lbs., the 2020 Sierra 2500/3500 diesel provides 52% more towing capability than its previous model year.
The 2020 GMC Sierra HD goes on sale later this year in 2500HD and 3500HD dual rear wheel and single rear wheel configurations. The trucks, when properly equipped, can tow in excess of 30,000 pounds.
The 2020 GMC Sierra Heavy Duty pickups, which include the Sierra 2500HD and 3500HD, can now tow more than 30,000 pounds when properly equipped and will offer a camera system to improve visibility when towing, GM has announced.
GMC has been rolling out variants of their trucks that have been slightly enhanced for off-road driving. What started with the Canyon and Sierra 1500 now comes to the GMC 2500 platform with the 2017 Sierra HD All Terrain X.
The GMC Sierra HD All Terrain X joins the lineup for the 2017 model year as the third off-road oriented GMC truck following similar treatment for the Canyon and Sierra 1500. Based on the Sierra 2500, the truck gets more aggresive tires, additional LED lighting, and a black appearance package. Read our driving impressions here. Photos by Vince Taroc.
