Why are you going to love the new 2019 Sierra AT4?

It’s hands-down one of the most capable trucks in the segment. While the Sierra AT4 is built to conquer rough terrain, it also promises to deliver an engaging performance on the street. The ability to perform great on and off the road has been wanted for a long time in the automotive market and it is moving that way.

To ensure that the new Sierra AT4 is properly prepared to handle nature’s obstacles, it’s been equipped with a number of off-road enhancements. When traveling off the beaten path, the combination of a factory-installed lift kit and Rancho monotube shocks give you the maximum ground clearance. Meanwhile, a Traction Select System enables you to tune the Sierra AT4 for the specific driving conditions. Some of the other goodies include protective skid plates, a low-range 4WD system, and hill descent control. The end result is a tough-nosed truck that comes ready to face any challenge.

The new off-road AT4 will pack plenty of power under the hood. Even the standard 5.3-liter, V8 engine delivers a strong punch. Although the engine’s official output has yet to be revealed, expect it to produce at least 355 horsepower. A new Dynamic Fuel Management system promotes the optimum efficiency. If you desire an even more robust performance, step up to the larger 6.2-liter V8. GMC will also offer a turbocharged diesel engine, which is an ideal choice for towing big loads. A new 10-speed automatic transmission takes the Sierra AT4’s performance to the next level.

What really sets apart the Sierra AT4 from today’s other off-road-ready trucks? It’s versatility.

Best-in-class cargo volume enables the Sierra AT4 to handle a serious workload. Available as an option, GMC’s rust-resistant CarbonPro bed is designed with special indents that help you to secure motorcycles and ATVs. The Sierra AT4’s standard MultiPro tailgate is another feature that GM took to the next level. Not only does the MultiPro tailgate function as a bed step, but it can also be transformed into an outdoor workstation. Offering up to six different positions makes this tailgate the most capable out of all others on the market.

There’s no overlooking this pickup’s chiseled appearance. There are a number of unique styling cues that help separate the GMC Sierra AT4 from the competition. On the front, a bold grille and red took hooks accentuate the truck’s ruggedness. A blacked-out grille adds to the pickup’s sinister look. You’ll also notice its C-shaped LEDs. While a set of 18-inch wheels come standard, the optional 20-inch wheels give the off-road AT4 an especially powerful stance.

The new interior

The Sierra AT4’s luxurious cabin further separates it from the competition. Its plush interior enables you to experience all-day comfort. Because of the crew cab’s spacious design, it’s an excellent choice for families. Cool touches, such as embroidered AT4 seats, enable you to stand out from the crowd. While behind the wheel of the new GMC Sierra AT4, you’ll be surrounded by a number of high-tech features. A touch-screen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto comes standard. Several upgrades are available as well. Whether you’re maneuvering around a tight parking lot or tackling a challenging trail, the optional Surround Vision overhead camera will help you to dodge obstacles. A class-exclusive Multi-Color Head-Up Display is available as well.

GMC engineered the new off-road AT4 to provide superior impact protection. Its reinforced steel structure allows you to travel with an extra peace of mind. You can also take advantage of GMC’s available driver-assist technologies. A lot of drivers will enjoy the new Rear Camera Mirror. It effectively helps eliminate dangerous blind spots in your rear. Low Speed Forward Automatic Braking takes the stress out of driving on a crowded city street. Front Pedestrian Braking and Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert are also offered.
