The 2026 GMC Sierra EV delivers 605 horsepower from its standard dual-motor e4WD system-the most powerful electric pickup on the market. That robust power is built for real-world capability: towing, hauling, and taking on both on-road and off-road adventures with confidence.

The truck features selectable drive modes, including Max Power Mode, so you can tailor performance to your terrain. Advanced engineering like 4-Wheel Steer with CrabWalk and Terrain Mode make tight spots and challenging trails manageable. Plus, off-board power options like GMC Energy Transfer Pro deliver up to 10.2 kW to run your tools and equipment. Ready to experience that power?
