2023 GMC Sierra 2500HD Overview
If you need a truck with more power than the GMC Sierra 1500, the 2023 GMC Sierra 2500HD is the ideal choice. This full-size, heavy-duty model has an available diesel engine that allows it to tow up to 18,500 pounds. Customers at the Rutherfordton GMC dealer appreciate the Sierra 2500HD’s powerful available diesel engine, helpful trailering features, and the optional MultoPro tailgate.
The 2023 GMC Sierra 2500HD comes in five trim levels: Pro, SLE, SLT, AT4, and Denali. Depending on the trim level, you can choose from three cab styles and two bed sizes. The Pro and SLE trims are available in Regular Cab, Double Cab, and Crew Cab styles, while the SLT is offered in Double Cab and Crew Cab configurations. The AT4 and Denali trims are only available as a Crew Cab. Both two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive are available. According to the Rutherfordton GMC dealership, these options provide a wide range of configurations to suit every need and preference.
The automotive media gives the 2023 GMC Sierra high marks. Kelley Blue Book writes: “The 2023 GMC Sierra HD is the biggest and strongest truck in the GMC lineup and offers an impressive Duramax turbodiesel V8 engine. .. . [It] takes everything we like about the Sierra 1500 full-size pickup truck and super-sizes it. It has a premium look and feel, especially in the Denali trim from GMC, and it impresses with its towing and hauling capabilities.”
The 2023 GMC Sierra 2500HD is equipped with a standard 6.6-liter V8 engine that develops 401 horsepower and 464 lb-ft of torque. This powerplant is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. An optional Duramax turbodiesel 6.6-liter V8 engine produces 445 hp and 910 lb-ft of torque. It’s teamed to an Allison 10-speed automatic transmission. Edmunds tested the Sierra 2500HD with the diesel engine and found that it could accelerate from zero to 60 mph in 7.3 seconds, one of the fastest times in the segment.
The GMC Sierra 2500HD offers a higher level of comfort and refinement than many other pickup trucks. The interior design is stylish and practical, and all models feature spacious front seats. Double Ccab models also offer relatively roomy rear seats. Crew Cabs provide even more space in the back, along with convenient under-seat and rear seatback storage.
If you’re looking for technology features, the 2023 GMC Sierra 2500HD doesn’t disappoint. All models come equipped with a standard infotainment system featuring a touchscreen and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Base trim levels include a nice set of tech features, and you can add a mobile hotspot and a 120-volt outlet.
Most models come with an 8.0-inch screen and extra charging ports. All setups feature physical buttons and rotary knobs that are easy to access. You can upgrade the larger touchscreen with a rear-seat entertainment system, a Bose audio system, SiriusXM satellite radio, and integrated navigation. GMC’s smartphone app can control trailer functions remotely, and the Sierra 2500HD’s infotainment system lets you create and store different trailer profiles.
