Autoesque

Ten years after the demise of Hummer, General Motors has revived the nameplate for use on a zero-emissions four-door “supertruck” that runs purely on electricity.

Fifty-four motoring journalists from across Canada and the United States have decided 2019’s North American Car of the Year, Truck of the Year and Utility Vehicle of the Year.

GMC has introduced an Off-Road Performance Package for its Sierra 1500 AT4 full-size pick-up.

Organisers of the 2019 North American Car of the Year, Truck of the Year and Utility Vehicle of the Year awards have revealed the three finalists in each category.

When deliveries of the new 2019 Sierra full-size pick-up begin across North America later this year, customers will have a choice of four trim grades. As well as the familiar SLT, AT4 and Denali models, an Elevation variant is going to join the line-up.

A set of Mattracks 150 Series tracks is a pretty obvious indicator that the All Mountain concept isn’t a normal pick-up. Its primary purpose is to traverse snow-covered rough ground in all weather conditions, hence the lack of ordinary wheels.

GMC's Sierra HD pick-up is now being offered in All Terrain X guise. This limited edition, which gets some cosmetic tweaks and improved off-road ability, is based on the four-wheel drive 2500HD with a crew cab.

GMC's latest special edition mixes extra off-road ability with some cosmetic tweaks. Called the All Terrain X, it's based on the existing Sierra 1500 SLT and availability will be restricted to the crew cab version with a short cargo box.

For 2017, GMC's mid-size Acadia sport utility has become smaller and lighter than its predecessor.

GMC has decided to add the upmarket Denali trim grade to its mid-size Canyon pick-up range.

Currently, around one-quarter of GMC buyers opt for the luxury Denali trim grade. That proportion could soon increase with the introduction of the Sierra Denali Ultimate.

GMC has confirmed that the Elevation Edition will be part of its refreshed 2016 Sierra 1500 pick-up range.

Like the mechanically identical Chevrolet Silverado , GMC’s Sierra full-size pick-up is getting a few minor styling changes for 2016.

Onyx Black paintwork, a unique grille and some extra equipment identify the new GMC Canyon Nightfall Edition. Based on the existing mid-range SLE crew cab model, it’ll be available with a choice of either rear- or four-wheel drive.

Following an initial voting round, the shortlists for the 2015 North American Car of the Year and Truck / Utility of the Year awards have been announced.

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.

GMC is offering three versions of its new Sierra Carbon Edition, all of which are based on the 1500 pick-up.

As its name implies, the new All Terrain version of GMC’s 2015 Sierra HD is aimed at those who need a pick-up with some extra go-anywhere ability.

The new 2015 Canyon is essentially a rebadged version of the North American-specification Chevrolet Colorado that was first revealed last November.

Following an initial vote by 48 jury members, the shortlists for the 2014 North American Car of the Year and 2014 North American Truck / Utility of the Year awards have been published.
