Are you curious about what sets the 2014 Sierra apart from the rest of the other trucks debuting this year? Let us give you a snapshot:
The new Sierra gets an aluminum hood (saving 17 pounds versus its predecessor), doors that are inset into the body sides instead of wrapping onto the roof, and aerodynamics-aiding underbody cladding and rear-wheel spats. The chassis is again fully boxed with a hydroformed front section, but it supports a front suspension that incorporates aluminum for some of its components.
GMC has endowed the 2014 Sierra 1500 with three all-new engines: A pair of small-block V-8s and a V-6. The two V-8s—a 5.3-liter and a 6.2-liter—belong to GM’s latest Gen V eight-cylinder small-block family, while the 4.3-liter V-6 is derived from the same architecture. All three engines feature aluminum blocks and heads, direct fuel injection, and come standard with cylinder-deactivation tech.
In addition to the choice of engine, the 2014 GMC Sierra continues to offer truck buyers a host of cab, bed, and driveline options. Regular-cab Sierras can be had with either a 6.5- or 8-foot beds; extended-cab Sierras come only with the 6.5-foot bed; and crew-cab models now offer the 6.5-foot bed in addition to the 5-foot, 8-inch unit available last year.
