The 2024 GMC Sierra EV Pickup Truck Has 754 HP, 400-Mile Range, $108K Denali Trim

The GMC Sierra EV is the slightly fancier version of the Silverado EV, and it looks more conventional as well as offering some unique features.

but...100k??

Range costs a lot of money.

$51,974 F-150 does not include long-range or highway/parking assist. If you need those, the F-150 starts at $96,8741 but still with about 300 miles.

So the $107,000 Sierra is not bad because it goes 400 miles with highway/parking assist, 14" Head-Up Display included.

whats with the tesla like screen.

Nowadays, Tesla screen is horizontal, not vertical.

It looks more like F-150 screen with a physical wheel at the bottom. It has additional physical at the bottom too.

Unlike Tesla, the Sierra screens are User Configurable Interface.

Unlike Tesla, the Sierra lets you can add apps from Google Play in addition to the existing built-in apps.

400 lbs less payload capacity than the ICE version. Hopefully the Truck won't use the same taillights as the Hummer that cost over 3,000 dollars each to replace if you damage them.

The GM "should" be a better EV due to its true ev platform and not ICE shared platform.

The first ev version is "light duty." Later version will be "heavy duty."

The high cost Hummer parts excuse is because it's a very low volume production.

If the Sierra ev will be bought by many labor workers and lay consumers, hopefully the parts replacement price will not be expensive.

It's true so far with the self-destruction of EV1 and the pouch battery fires from the Bolt.

Hopefully, they are getting better now.

Beds and tailgates get beat up on work trucks. Since the GMC EV truck does not have a separate bed you can easily replace repairing that bed could be very costly. I don't see many GMC work trucks anyway. The majority I see are Fords and Rams.

Surprised no one has commented on GM’s battery supplier choice. I’ll stay away given the recalls on other GM battery driven products. LG doesn’t have a good history with EV batteries. Chevy Bolt Battery Recall: How Could This Have Happened?

That is a Ford screen like they have in the Mustang. It says Ford in the center of the steering wheel.

Don't most trucks come with liners for the bed? I am not a truck guy but a lot of my neighbors are, and they all seem to have a liner for bed and tailgate. I assumed they either install them at the factory or dealer.

The interior picture @meomyo embedded is from a Ford F-150 Lightning. However the linked article has correct photos of the GMC Sierra EV. At least it does now, did it have wrong photos earlier?

The portrait center screens with physical knob are very similar between the trucks, but otherwise their interiors are styled quite differently.

The average construction worker will not be able to afford an electric pickup. They're too expensive. This is the exact reason you see so many Fords and Rams. They are CHEAP, and therefore affordable. If Tesla put out a Cybertruck for $15K, they'd sell a ton, not because they're electric, but because they don't cost a bunch. That's the problem, though. Batteries are expensive.

yes...the average person wont drop 100k on an ev truck they will be using to haul stones and dirt and whatnot..It will get dented and scratched.Even now i see alot of NON ev trucks way too clean to be used for hauling stuff and construction in my area.They are always shiney and tricked out and pristine....they never go off road or haul stuff. and many are lifted....i mean why drive it then?
