GMC Sierra 1500

The 2025 GMC Sierra 1500 balances everyday usability with serious muscle under the hood. With multiple engine choices and advanced towing tools, it’s ideal if you need versatility, comfort, and control. From highway hauls to job site challenges, this light-duty pickup shows up ready to work.

Engine Options and Specifications

You can choose from four engines in the 2025 Sierra 1500 lineup. The TurboMax offers 310 horsepower and best-in-class standard torque at 430 lb-ft. Need more muscle? Step up to the 5.3L V-8 with 355 horsepower, or go bigger with the 6.2L V-8, generating 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque. For maximum torque and top-tier fuel efficiency, the Duramax 3.0L Turbo-Diesel delivers 305 horsepower and 495 lb-ft.

Each engine pairs with either an eight-speed or 10-speed automatic transmission, depending on the model. Trims, including the AT4X, even include Multimatic DSSV dampers and electronic locking differentials for serious off-road capability.

Towing and Payload Capabilities

Towing strength depends on the engine, and the Sierra 1500 covers a wide range. The TurboMax handles up to 9,500 pounds. The 5.3L V-8 reaches up to 11,200 pounds, while the 6.2L V-8 tows as much as 13,000 pounds. The diesel takes the top spot, with a maximum available towing capacity of 13,200 pounds.

Payload capacities go as high as 2,240 pounds, depending on the configuration. You also get advanced support from the ProGrade Trailering System, which includes custom trailer profiles, maintenance reminders, and camera views to line up your hitch with ease.

GMC Sierra HD Series

When the work gets heavier, the 2025 GMC Sierra HD lineup steps in with serious strength. Built on a reinforced GMC Sierra frame and loaded with tech to handle oversized jobs, the Sierra 2500 and 3500 are ideal for businesses, towing, and heavy hauling without compromise.

Sierra 2500 and 3500 Heavy-Duty Models

The 2025 GMC Sierra 2500 HD and 3500 HD are available in multiple trims, from the work-ready Pro to the luxurious Denali Ultimate. You get two powerhouse engine options. The standard 6.6L V-8 gas engine delivers 401 horsepower and 464 lb-ft of torque. For even more brawn, the available Duramax 6.6L Turbo-Diesel V-8 packs 470 horsepower and an incredible 975 lb-ft of torque.

Each truck includes a 10-speed Allison automatic transmission for smoother gear changes under load. Choose from configurations including regular, double, or crew cab, as well as single or dual rear wheels.

Towing and Payload Capacities

Towing is where the Sierra HD shines. The 2025 GMC Sierra 2500 can tow up to 21,870 pounds when properly equipped. Step up to the 3500 HD, and you get up to 36,000 pounds of towing capacity with a fifth-wheel or gooseneck setup. That makes it a strong pick if you haul trailers, heavy machinery, or large RVs.

Payload numbers are just as impressive, maxing out at 7,290 pounds in specific 3500 HD configurations. With features such as the six-function MultiPro Tailgate and up to 14 camera views, every load becomes easier to manage and safer to move.

GMC Canyon

Need capability without the bulk of a full-size truck? The 2025 GMC Canyon hits that sweet spot. It offers bold styling, modern technology, and strong towing power in a compact package. Whether you are off-roading, commuting, or hauling gear, this midsize pickup gets it done with confidence.

The Canyon comes standard with a TurboMax engine producing 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque, which is best-in-class for standard gas torque. It tows up to 7,700 pounds and offers innovative features, including selectable drive modes, an 11.3-inch touch screen, and up to 10 available camera views. Trims such as the AT4X take things further with Multimatic DSSV dampers, a factory 3-inch lift, and electronic locking differentials for all-terrain traction. It combines midsize maneuverability with full-size durability.

GMC Savana Series

The GMC Savana cargo van remains a staple for business owners who require reliable hauling and uncompromising functionality. The 2025 Savana lineup includes three versatile builds: cargo, passenger, and cutaway. You get up to 283.6 cubic feet of cargo space in the cargo model or room for up to 15 passengers in the extended wheelbase passenger van.

Power options include a 4.3L V-6 with 276 horsepower or an available 6.6L V-8 that cranks out 401 horsepower and 464 lb-ft of torque. Towing capacity peaks at 10,000 pounds. Need access or customization? Choose swing-out or sliding side doors, wheelchair lift compatibility, or opt for a cutaway van with multiple wheelbase options for specialized upfits. GMC built the Savana to transport, adapt, and stay dependable on the clock.

Design and Customization Opportunities

There are many ways you can upfit GMC commercial vehicles. Models such as the Savana Cutaway and Sierra HD Chassis Cab offer straight-rail frames, multiple cab-to-axle lengths, and open rear chassis setups for box trucks, shuttles, or service bodies.

Available vocational packages include snowplow prep, ambulance prep, and fleet electrical upgrades. GMC Business Elite dealers provide dedicated account support and upfit guidance.
