2018 GMC Sierra 1500: The Power to Pull

When you’ve got lots of cargo to haul, it’s important to make sure that your pickup is equipped to handle it all. That’s why the 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 features 9,500 pounds of maximum towing capacity. With those numbers, your truck will never hesitate to carry any type of weight along the road—be it your boat, an ATV, or some construction supplies. 

To surge past all other automobiles, the GMC Sierra 1500 arms itself with the standard 4.3L EcoTec3 motor that seethes with the strength of 285 horses and 305 lb-ft of torque. Taking a step up, the optional 6.2L V8 engine leads the way along your route with 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque.

And, if you happen to be pulling a trailer with you, standard Trailer Sway Control actively monitors the movement of your cargo and automatically applies the brakes when it senses your trailer moving out of place. That way, you can feel confident that your truck will help to protect everyone on the road.

GMC Sierra 1500: Technology and Intelligence

With the 2018 GMC Sierra, brawns and brains now come in one package. That’s because this pickup includes a standard 7-inch touchscreen for access to gadgets like Bluetooth®, Apple CarPlay™, Android Auto™, and lots more. 

To keep track of how your truck is managing the terrain, the standard 3.5-inch Driver Information Center offers up information about things like your average speed, fuel range, tire pressure, and lots more. With this convenient tool, you’ll always stay connected with how your vehicle performs on a given day.

Additionally, the available 8-inch navigation display provides 2D and 3D maps for a clear view of the path to your destination. And with SiriusXM Traffic™, your truck will employ the use of real-time traffic and road conditions to keep you on the quickest route.
