The 2026 GMC Sierra EV stands out in the electric truck segment. It delivers 605 horsepower-more than the Ford F-150 Lightning (462 hp) and Rivian R1T (533 hp). With an available max-range battery, it offers up to 478 miles of range, significantly exceeding the F-150 Lightning's 240 miles. The Sierra EV also uniquely includes a standard bed liner and head-up display, features competitors charge extra for or don't offer at all. Its exclusive 4-Wheel Steer with CrabWalk and available MultiPro Midgate expanding cargo to 10 feet 10 inches round out its class-leading capability and innovation.
