View

One of the biggest highlights of this year`s 2018 New York Auto Show will be the all-new 2019 GMC Sierra AT4, a massive pickup truck with off-road capabilities. It was recently announced ahead the event in an official video and a couple of photos.

As expected, it is based on the updated 2019 Sierra and features plenty of equipment designed for off-road purpose.

GMC has thus fitted the all-new 2019 Sierra AT4 with massive and one-off 18-inch alloy wheels with all-terrain tires, adding as well 2-inch suspension lift, Rancho mono-tube shock absorbers, locking rear differential ad skid plates.

There is also the red recovery hooks or hill descent control, traction system with preset drive modes that adjust the “transmission shift points, throttle mapping and StabiliTrak to optimized performance for the situation at hand.” The model also benefits from a standard four-wheel drive system.

All the off-road stuffs are beautifully-mixed with the new styling bits, like body-colour accents on the door handles, bumpers and grille surround. There are also the black chrome accents as well as the MultiPro Tailgate with six functions, including the Standing Workstation Mode or Egress Mode.

The cabin comes with a high-class feel thanks to two-tone leather seats with the AT4 embroidered on the headrests, adding as well fine contrast stitching, all-weather floor mats as well as “dark-tinted and textured aluminum finishes.”

The cabin also gets GMC-exclusive CarbonPro bed from carbon fiber composite material which makes 28 kg lither than the steel bed, providing as well “best in-class dent, scratch and corrosion resistance.” Other features also include colour head-up display and rear-view camera.

Under the hood, the 2019 GMC Sierra AT4 is powered by a 3.0-liter V8 engine with Dynamic Fuel Management, adding as well other two optional pots – 6.2-liter V8 engine and 3.0-liter Duramax turbodiesel inline six-cylinder, respectively.

Prices will be known prior to its debut in the United States this autumn. Until then, don’t forget to watch the video presentation with the all-new 2019 GMC Sierra AT4!
