2026 GMC Sierra 1500 Specs and Features
The 2026 Sierra 1500 offers four well-rounded powertrains designed to meet different performance priorities. The standard 2.7L turbocharged engine produces 310 horsepower and an impressive 420 lb-ft of torque, delivering confident acceleration and everyday usability. The 5.3L V8 balances power and efficiency with 355 horsepower, making it a popular choice for drivers who tow regularly without needing maximum output.
For those who want top-end performance, the 6.2L V8 delivers 420 horsepower and now features a more aggressive exhaust note when Sport mode is activated, adding extra presence on the road. Drivers focused on torque and long-distance efficiency will appreciate the 3.0L Duramax turbo-diesel, which generates 305 horsepower and a class-leading 495 lb-ft of torque while enabling towing ratings up to 13,200 pounds. Each engine pairs with a smooth-shifting automatic transmission and is available with rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive.
The Sierra 1500 is offered in Regular Cab, Double Cab, and Crew Cab configurations with multiple bed lengths to fit work and lifestyle needs. Its available carbon-fiber-reinforced cargo bed is lighter and stronger than steel, providing exceptional durability without added weight. The MultiPro Tailgate adds six distinct functions, including a bed step, load stop, and standing workstation—features designed to make real-world tasks easier.
Inside, the Sierra emphasizes comfort and technology. An available 13.4-inch touchscreen with Google Built-In provides access to navigation, voice commands, and apps, while wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ come standard. Available Super Cruise hands-free driving assistance allows for relaxed highway driving on compatible roads, even while towing.
