Come and discover with your GMC dealership the 2023 Sierra, its 4 engine options, interior, cargo volume and the prices of the 8 available versions.
GMC Sierra 1500: 4 Engine Options
Regardless of the work you have to do, there’s a 2023 Sierra 1500 for it. With 4 available engines available through the Sierra’s 8 versions, there’s more than enough options.
Discover the power and capacity of each engine offered by the American manufacturer:

Except for models with the 2.7 L engine mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission, all the GMS Sierra’s versions are equipped with a 10-speed automatic transmission.
Note that most versions allow you to choose between all-wheel drive and front-wheel drive.
2023 GMC Sierra Interior and Cargo Box Volume
Depending on the vehicle’s configuration, the Sierra 1500’s cargo box volume varies between 1,781 L and 2,523 L.
Even though this maximum volume is only reached by the GMC Sierra 1500 Pro with a classic cabin and long bed, even the Sierra trucks with double cab and standard bed have a lot to offer in terms of space.
If a well-equipped cabin is important to you, the GMC Sierra Elevation trim comes with a package of upscale accessories including:
- A huge 13.4 touchscreen display
- Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and Google Maps integration
- Front bucket seats with leather upholstery
- Bose sound system with 7 speakers and 1 subwoofer, etc.
For those who want absolutely all the comfort that the Sierra 1500 can offer, the GMC Sierra Denali Ultimate trim is the American car manufacturer’s answer to them.
All the accessories and equipment that was optional on the Denali in previous years are now offered standard inside the Ultimate. You’ll find:
- 16-way power front seats with massaging functions
- Alpine Umber interior
- Authentic open-pore paldao wood from New Guinea
- And much more!
With this trim-level, GMC proves once again that there’s no need to compromise on comfort.
GMC Sierra AT4X: The Ultimate Off-Road Experience
You want a vehicle that can work hard without driving you up the wall? Then the AT4X is the trim for you.
Like Auto123 so aptly put it when they took out the AT4X on a first drive:
“It’s not every day you can go on a real off-road trip in a desert cooking at 110° Fahrenheit […] with air conditioning and a massaging seat.”[1]
With its 6.2 L V8 engine under the hood, the 2023 GMC Sierra’s AT4X model offers one of the best towing capacity in its segment, in addition to the best power available on a Sierra 1500.
That’s right, the AT4X is the right choice for you if you’re looking for the great off-road capacity of the GMC Sierra AT4 and you don’t want to miss out on some extras, because with the “X” you’re getting much more!
