General Motors revealed the 2014 GMC Sierra and Chevrolet Silverado ahead of the scheduled debut in the Detroit Auto Show (North American International Auto Show), next January.
Let's start with the engines. GM introduced three new EcoTec3 engines, a 4.3liter V6, a 5.3liter V8 and a 6.2liter V8 whose specifications are still unknown, but we know they will have direct injection, continuously variable valve timing, new pistons, new cylinder head design with a compression ratio of at least 11:1 and cylinder deactivation technology.
GM promises, besides being more fuel efficient, the trucks will also be more comfortable and will have better handling, thanks to the new suspension, electric power steering, body mounts, brakes and wider wheels.
Outside, one of the major objectives was to reduce the noise caused by wind and the drag. But that did not stop GMs designers from increasing the front grille and headlamps. You even have optional LED lights in the bed rails besides those in the headlamps (GMC). And if you want you can choose from 17 to 20inches rims and a special 22inch wheel is also available.
In the cabin the interiors are all new, with an upright instrument panel, six-gauge instrument cluster with a 4.2-inch color Driver Information Center displaying vehicle and infotainment data. Also available will be the IntelliLink system with an eight inch color touchscreen, plus a 110-volt outlet, up to five USB ports, four 12-volt outlets and a SD card slot.
Standard safety features include Forward Collision Alert, Lane Departure Warning with an Active Safety Seat, Front and Rear Park Assist, StabiliTrak with Trailer Sway Control and Hill Start Assist.
