2015 GMC Sierra Elevation Edition unveiled

Just a week after the Carbon Edition was announced, GMC has confirmed that another special version of its Sierra 1500 pick-up is due to arrive at dealers soon. This new one is called the Elevation Edition and it features various cosmetic tweaks as well as some extra equipment.

Based on the double-cab model, 20” black-painted alloy wheels and a colour-keyed finish for the bumpers, grille surround, door handles and mirror caps are intended to give a sporty image.

The Elevation Edition’s standard spec also includes LED headlights, remote keyless entry, power mirrors and LED cargo box lighting. What’s more, it comes with Bluetooth connectivity, a 4.2” touchscreen-controlled audio system and OnStar which provides an in-vehicle Wi-Fi hotspot.

There’s a choice of 4.3 litre V6 or 5.3 litre V8 engines and buyers will be able to opt for either rear- or four-wheel drive.

Although top speed is virtually unchanged at 121 mph (195 km/h), the 0-62 mph (100 km/h) acceleration time is slashed from 9.9 to 8.7 seconds. To go with the extra performance, the looks have been spruced up too. There are 17” black alloy wheels, twin chrome exhausts and a silver finish at the front for the aerofoil, grille surround and fog light bezels.
