  • Overview

    There are several pickup trucks on the market, so what makes any one model unique? While most trucks share similar features, the GMC Sierra offers the perfect balance between luxury and power. This model has been known for its luxury appeal for a while now, but the 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 model takes this label a step further. The new Sierra 1500 comes with several new comfort, convenience, and performance technologies that are not available on competing brands. Plus, drivers get to choose from several capable engine options and can tow up to 13,200 pounds.

    The new 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 is the master when it comes to trim variety, too. Rather than merely offering a few different trims with minuscule changes, the Sierra includes two important new trims that expand its range: the AT4X and the Denali Ultimate. The basic AT4 has been around for a few years, but the AT4X takes its off-road capabilities to new heights with several class-exclusive features. The Denali Ultimate is another new take on an old friend, providing exactly what you expect: top-level luxury. We’re excited to give you the full details of this powerful new truck.

  • New Trims

    The AT4X trim is a truck for off-roading adventurers. It offers aesthetic upgrades and performance perks that you won’t find on just any truck model. The AT4X includes 18-inch black wheels, mud terrain tires, and red tow hooks. It also comes with an underbody skid plate and optional rocker protection that lines the truck’s lower sides to help prevent gravel, rock, and tree damage. While these features are exciting on their own, most of what makes this truck so unique are its performance add-ons. These include the following features:

    • Multimatic DSSV spool-valve dampers
    • Tuned front and rear suspension
    • Off-road chassis and tuning
    • Class-exclusive front and rear e-locking differentials
    • Terrain Mode with one-pedal rock crawling
    • Standard V8 engine

    This is a lot of mechanical talk, but in short, these features combined help the AT4X tackle low-traction areas, steep hills, and rocky terrain much better than the average truck. The best part of it all is you’re not in for a rough ride since the AT4X’s suspension is made to be flexible off-road while still providing a smooth on-pavement experience.

    The Most Luxurious Truck Ever

    The new Denali Ultimate offers all the “best” features that can come on a Sierra. It includes standard 16-way power front seating with massaging, heating, and ventilating capability. It’s also much more chromed-out than other Sierra trucks, with Vader Chrome badging, Denali Ultimate fender badging, redesigned headlamps, and much more. Here are just some of the features that make this model unique:

    • Power Assist Steps
    • 22-inch Gloss Black Wheels
    • Multi-Pro KICKER Audio System
    • Redesigned Chrome Grille
    • Alpine Umber full-grain leather seating
    • Metal seat badging
    • Super Cruise technology
    • CarbonPro Truck Bed
    • Six Function MultiPro Tailgate
    • Adaptive Ride Control

    While these trims have their differences, both the AT4X and the Denali Ultimate offer the best-in-class 16-way power seats with massage and temperature control. There’s a lot to unpack here, but overall, Denali Ultimate drivers will get a nice balance of aesthetic and convenience perks. When you want the ultimate Sierra experience, this is the trim for you.

  • Technology

    A large part of what makes the 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 so luxurious is its new technology features. This new truck offers everything from a multi-function tailgate to automatic emergency braking with front pedestrian braking. What really sets this truck apart from others, though, is its new hands-free driving technology. While the Sierra’s driver-assist features have been present for the past several model years, the 2022 Sierra now brings a new friend to the table 𑁋 the Super Cruise feature.

    Super Cruise Hands-Free Driving

    The 2022 Sierra 1500 is the first model in its class to offer Super Cruise. Thanks to LiDAR mapping, Super Cruise allows drivers to travel hands-free, both while towing and while casually commuting. You can even use the Automatic Lane Change feature to let the Sierra do the work for you. This is especially beneficial when trailering. Oftentimes, it is difficult to see around the trailer, making it hard to switch lanes. The Sierra’s new technologies monitor the traffic and are designed to see what you can’t, making these lane switches safer and more efficient.

    While hands-free driving may be seen as lazy or dangerous, features like Automatic Lane Change help drivers be more attentive. Rather than swiping in and out of lanes, hoping for the best, you can now trust this monitoring system to let you know whether the path is clear.

    Exclusive 15 Camera Views

    In case you don’t feel comfortable trusting the Sierra’s Super Cruise, you can self-monitor the surrounding area with 15 different camera views. First, we’ve got regular camera views. These include the following:

    • Rear Camera Mirror
    • Bowl View
    • Picture-in-Picture Side View
    • Front Camera
    • Rear Camera
    • Surround View
    • Front Side View
    • Rear Side View
    • Front Top-Down View
    • Rear Top-Down View

    These camera views also come with the following tow-specific views:

    • Transparent Trailer View
    • Hitch View
    • Bed View Zoom with Bed Hitch Guidance
    • Rear Trailer View with Trailer Length Indicator
    • Inside Trailer View

    The ProGrade Trailering System Makes Towing Easy

    Speaking of trailering, another handy feature that the Sierra includes is the ProGrade Trailering System. Essentially, this system includes tech features that help make it easier to monitor your towing experience. This system includes the In-Vehicle Trailering app and Smart Trailer Integration. The trailering app includes the following features:

    • 5 customer trailer profiles
    • Trailer tire pressure monitoring
    • Pre-departure checklists
    • Trailer mileage and fuel-economy tracking

    These trailer profiles can be customized to each of your trailers. When you switch from your boat trailer to your camper, simply switch your profile as well to keep from readjusting certain specs. Plus, this helps you accurately monitor your trailer’s mileage.

    Smart Trailer Integration is designed with campers in mind. You can link your truck to your compatible travel trailer to monitor your generator, water levels, and even the heating and cooling system. When necessary, you can control your camper slides directly from the Sierra’s 13.4-inch touchscreen.

    Too Much Tech to List

    2022 Sierra drivers will also have access to traditional driver-assist features such as Following Distance Indicator, Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist, and Rear Cross Traffic Alert. Overall, the 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 includes convenient technology features that benefit both comfort and performance.

  • Power

    Towing capacity is one of the leading reasons why people buy trucks. The good news here is that the 2022 Sierra 1500 is incredibly powerful. It comes with four different tow-capable engine options, with the Duramax diesel engine offering the highest fuel economy with upgraded towing capacity. While you’ll get less horsepower with the diesel engine, it offers more torque than any other option, making it ideal for heavy lifting jobs. The two V8 engine options also offer high towing capacities and higher horsepower, but they’re less fuel-efficient. Let’s take a quick look at each engine’s stats.

    Standard 2.7L Turbo High-Output

    • Horsepower: 310
    • Torque: 348 lb-ft
    • Transmission: 8-Speed Automatic
    • 2WD Fuel Economy: 19/22 MPG
    • 4WD Fuel Economy: 17/20 MPG
    • Max Towing Capacity: 9,400 pounds

    5.3L EcoTec3 V8

    • Horsepower: 355
    • Torque: 383 lb-ft
    • Transmission: 10-Speed Automatic
    • 2WD Fuel Economy: 16/21 MPG
    • 4WD Fuel Economy: 15/20 MPG
    • Max Tow Capacity: 11,200 pounds

    3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel

    • Horsepower: 277
    • Torque: 460 lb-ft
    • Transmission: 10-Speed Automatic
    • 2WD Fuel Economy: 23/30 MPG
    • 4WD Fuel Economy: 22/26 MPG
    • Max Towing Capacity: 13,200

    6.2L EcoTec3 V8

    • Horsepower: 420
    • Torque: 460 lb-ft
    • Transmission: 10-Speed Automatic
    • 4WD Fuel Economy: 15/20 MPG
    • Max Towing Capacity: 13,000

    There are definitely pros to each engine option. The diesel engine offers more than enough power for average truck drivers while saving money at the pump. However, the two V8 options are best if you plan on towing heavier loads. The new Sierra offers configurations that fit every type of truck driver.
