The 2026 GMC Sierra EV outperforms the competition in power, range, and innovation. It delivers 605 horsepower-163 more than the F-150 Lightning and 72 more than the Rivian R1T. With an available max-range battery offering up to 478 miles, it doubles the F-150 Lightning's 240-mile range and outpaces Rivian's 280 miles.

The Sierra EV is the only electric pickup to come standard with a bed liner and head-up display. Its exclusive 4-Wheel Steer with CrabWalk technology and available MultiPro Midgate (10'10" cargo space) set it apart. Every detail-from rugged engineering to premium features-makes the Sierra EV the standout choice. See it in person at Markquart Motors in Chippewa Falls.
