TRAILERING TECHNOLOGY
Sierra 2500HD puts trailer safety and control at your fingertips:

  • Available integrated trailer brake controller is located close to the steering wheel for easy adjustments and displays the level of brake force or “gain” in the Driver Information Center

BRAKING SYSTEMS
To let you engage an extra measure of braking confidence on long grades, or in Tow/Haul mode, Sierra 2500HD utilizes various technology to assure you stay at the desired speeds:

PERFORMANCE

We built the Sierra 2500HD to deliver everything you expect from a heavy duty truck—and then we exceeded those expectations with the most powerful Sierra ever.

GMC Sierra 2500HD heavy duty pickup performance technology

DURAMAX DIESEL 6.6L V8 TURBO
The advanced Duramax diesel in the Sierra 2500HD delivers 397 hp and 765 lb.-ft. of torque, making it the most powerful Sierra ever. Paired with the sophisticated Allison 1000 Series Transmission with overdrive, this powertrain also offers a maximum highway range of up to 680 miles on a single fill-up.

 

ALLISON 1000 SERIES TRANSMISSION

The enhanced Allison 1000 is strengthened to handle the higher torque capability of the 6.6L Duramax engine, while also helping improve fuel economy and provide seamless assistance with the exhaust brake system.

Over 1.2 million have been sold. Plus, it’s produced by the same company that makes transmissions for the U.S. Army M1 Tank.

 

DIRECT INJECTION TECHNOLOGY
For faster starts in cold weather, quieter operation and maximum efficiency, the direct injection system helps Sierra 2500HD start in as little as 3.0 seconds at -40ºF and operates at nearly 30,000 psi to turn heavy diesel fuel into a fine mist, burning cleaner and faster with lower emissions and greater power than the previous model.

 

SUSPENSION
Sierra 2500HD delivers a smoother ride with a fully independent coil-over-shock front suspension and 3-inch wide multistage rear leaf springs, that engage progressively as the load in the bed or the hitch increases.

 

VARIABLE VALVE TIMING
For strong, steady power to bold acceleration on the highway, the 6.0L V8 with Variable Valve Timing (VVT) is up to any task by:

  • Monitoring and opening and closing valves for near peak levels of torque across the entire range of engine speeds

 

EATON AUTOMATIC LOCKING REAR DIFFERENTIAL
No other competitor in its class offers an available fully automatic locking rear differential for on or off-road use.

  • Delivers added traction in driving and wheel-slip situations
  • Senses a difference in speed between left and right rear wheels
  • Locks to turn both wheels in unison

Sierra 2500HD features standard driver and front passenger-side air bags9. Available head curtain side-impact air bags10 give extra protection to outboard passengers, and with the available seat-mounted side-impact air bags you and your passengers are completely enveloped in protection.
