GMC today introduced the 2026 Sierra EV with a full range of trims, capability and battery configurations, giving customers more choice than ever to find the perfect electric GMC pickup for their next adventure.
The premium Elevation and rugged AT4 trims join the iconic Denali to complete a lineup. Canadian Pricing will be announced at a later date.
Underpinning the Sierra EV lineup is the widest selection of battery options yet: Standard, Extended and Max Range. Elevation will be available with a Standard or Extended Range battery, while AT4 will be available with an Extended or Max Range battery. The Denali trim will offer all three battery options. Range estimates for all trims will be announced closer to launch.
“With these additional trims and customer options, the Sierra EV is positioned right in the heart of the premium truck market,” said Jaclyn McQuaid, global vice president, Buick GMC. “The combination of Elevation, AT4 and Denali represent the most popular expressions of Sierra, accounting for more than 2 out of 3 of all Sierra light-duty sales. The result is a compelling all-electric lineup for those customers looking for the cutting edge of technology, capability and refinement. The Sierra EV is a real truck that does real truck things, matched with EV performance and advanced tech, and now with the expansion of the line-up, we can’t wait to get more customers behind the wheel.”
Sierra EV AT4
The 2026 Sierra EV AT4 will bring GMC’s signature off-road capability, tech and style to the electric pickup portfolio. In addition to a lifted coil suspension and 35-inch all-terrain tires, AT4 will feature the sophisticated and trim-exclusive Terrain Mode, designed to provide maximum maneuverability, torque and precise control off-road, and integrated with one-pedal drive and automatic braking. Terrain mode combines GM’s legendary off-road truck know-how with the latest software advancements to deliver cutting-edge capability.
