The Sierra 1500 immediately dominated the scene upon its debut in 1999 and has continued to impress with each new generation. This light-duty truck was GMC’s answer to the demand for an entry-level pickup that could be adaptable to each buyer’s unique needs. The 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 offers different configurations with reasonable prices, making this truck handsome, athletic, and affordable.
Intensely Powerful Engines
Five different engine options are available for various trim levels of the Sierra 1500, ensuring you’ll have the power you need for the workload you expect to encounter. Ranging in size from six to eight cylinders, these engines can generate between 295-420 horsepower. There are multiple transmission pairings available, as well, including 6-, 8-, and 10-speed options.
The available 3.0-liter Duramax turbodiesel engine is unseen on other trucks of this caliber, producing up to 460 lb-ft of torque. This engine earns a best-in-class for its horsepower generation, making the Sierra 1500 the truck to beat among the competition.
2021 GMC Sierra 1500 Trims
The 2021 Sierra 1500 is available in six trims, and countless configurations. The trims are the Base starting at $30,100, the SLE starting at $41,400, the Elevation starting at $43,100, the SLT starting at $47,500, the AT4 starting at $54,700, and the Denali starting at $55,800. Some trim levels offer three cab configurations; the Crew Cab, Double Cab, or regular cab. Three bed length choices are also available, depending on your cab configuration.
Large Maximum Payload
Drivers searching for a truck that can handle a large payload may not need to shell out the money for a ¾-ton or one-ton truck. The 2021 Sierra 1500 delivers impressive towing capabilities for a truck of its size and cost. A maximum payload of 2,240 pounds and the ability to haul up to 12,200 pounds makes this truck stronger than others, even some larger models.
Upscale Interior
GMC spared no detail in designing the 2021 Sierra 1500. The attention paid to the powertrain didn’t distract from the comfort of the interior where upscale materials and convenient features make for a pleasant driving experience. While your truck does the work, you can enjoy the ride. Available heated and ventilated seats, advanced technology, and ergonomic features give the spacious interior an updated and comfortable finish.
Range of Fuel Efficiency
With multiple powertrain options, the fuel efficiency can vary greatly. But because of this diversity of engine choices, you are in control of determining the fuel economy that is important to you. For example, the diesel engine is a great daily driver as it can achieve up to 30 mpg highway.
The 2021 Sierra 1500 is bolder than ever before, commanding our attention both on the road and in your driveway. Its upgraded driver-assisted options and trailering features allow for safer towing practices while its transmission choices, powertrain options, bed lengths, and cab configurations are all indicative of GMC’s dedication to both performance and value.
