GMC engines are built for power and efficiency. The Terrain features a 1.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder with 24 city / 29 highway MPG. The Sierra HD delivers serious towing-up to 36,000 pounds-perfect for heavy work. The Yukon offers three powerplants: a 5.3L V8 (355 hp), 6.2L V8 (420 hp), or 3.0L Duramax TurboDiesel (277 hp) to match your needs.

The 2024 Hummer EV is in a league of its own: 1,000 horsepower and 11,500 lb-ft of torque. Many GMC models also feature Traction Select Mode, which adapts performance to road conditions for safer, smarter driving.
