GMC Sierra 1500
The full-size, light-duty Sierra 1500 takes off-road driving to yet another level for 2023 with the addition of the AT4X AEV Edition. Once again, there are many configurations to choose from including three cab sizes, two cargo bed lengths and a choice of RWD and 4WD models. Also, four different engines are available: a turbocharged 2.7-litre four-cylinder, a 3.0-litre six-cylinder turbo-diesel and a pair of V8 units. A fully electric Sierra EV is coming next year.
