The 2024 GMC Sierra 2500 HD: Unleashing Strength and Capability
Powerful Engine Options
There are 7 Sierra trim models and two robust engine options across the lineup. You can choose between a gas engine and a diesel engine. All these engines are configured with a highly responsive 10-speed automatic transmission system and provide impressive horsepower, torque, and towing capabilities.
6.6-Liter V-8 Gas Engine
In the 2024 model year, this gas engine gets a transmission upgrade for enhanced performance. It comes paired with a smooth-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission, dropping the previous 6-speed transmission. This transmission upgrade optimizes the engine’s power and efficiency.
The Sierra gas engine is rated 401 horsepower and 464 pound-feet of torque. This is the standard powerplant in all 2024 Sierra models except the top trim Denali Ultimate.
6.6-Liter V-8 Turbo Diesel Engine
In the 2024 model year, this diesel engine gets a 25 horsepower and 65 torque boost over the previous year model, resulting in greater towing power. Paired with a 10-speed transmission, this capable engine makes 470 horsepower and 975 pound-feet of torque. This is the standard powertrain in the Denali Ultimate trim.
These engines can be tuned with the standard RWD or the available 4WD system. The RWD system is the standard on all the Sierra models except the AT4 and Denali trim classes. No matter your powertrain configuration, give your truck proper maintenance service, and you’ll enjoy its exceptional performance for many years to come.
Impressive Towing and Hauling Capability
This truck has the muscles to pull your world. If you have regular load towing tasks, the diesel engine is the best for moving heavy loads as it can pull up to 22,500 pounds. If properly equipped, your Sierra truck can haul more than 3,800 pounds in the cargo bed.
Spacious and Comfortable Interior
The exceptional power of your Sierra doesn’t come at the expense of your comfort. Whether you are out working or adventuring, the 2024 GMC Sierra 2500 HD offers the features and amenities you need to enjoy comfortable rides.
The wide-opening doors provide easy access to the seats no matter your size, and the generously spacious cabin provides ample room for 3 to 6 people, depending on the configuration. Inside, the Sierra offers an upgradable multi-speaker stereo system and a wealth of comfort and convenience amenities.
Smooth Rides and Sharp Handling
While some massive trucks can be tricky to keep balanced in the lane, the Sierra 2500 HD is easy to control in all terrains and offers exceptionally smooth rides.

The available 12.3-inch driver information panel provides vehicle tats and customization tools, keeping you in command and informed in all driving situations. There’s also an available camera system that gives you an excellent view of your surroundings, enabling you to keep an eye on your cargo bed behind and helping you to hitch a trailer or park.
A Range of Safety Features
Every 2024 GMC Sierra 2500 HD comes with a package of safety and driver-aid features that help in regular driving and towing operations. The standard safety package includes a forward collision avoidance alert, lane departure warning, and automatic emergency braking. There’s also a feature that automatically adjusts your headlamp beam when driving in the dark to enhance visibility in various situations.
You can also access a suite of available advanced safety features, such as blind spot monitoring, rear-cross traffic alert, and adaptive cruise control. There’s also a cruise control with the trailering feature that allows your truck’s cruise control system to account for the towing load in the speed and following distance adjustments.
