2022 GMC Sierra 2500: Performance
Start your job on the right foot with your choice of two powerhouse engines available with the 2022 GMC Sierra 2500. First off is the standard 6.6L V8 gas engine, which provides a stunning output of 401 horsepower and 464 lb-ft of torque. It comes paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
You can also kick your capability up a notch with the available 6.6L Duramax® Turbo-Diesel V8 engine, which delivers 445 horsepower and a dominating 910 lb-ft of torque. This workhorse of an engine is paired with an Allison® 10-speed automatic transmission that allows the engine to operate at an optimal range at all times and even with varying loads and terrain.
The Sierra 2500 offers a number of available features to help with maneuverability and stability. The available Traction Select System, which includes Off-Road and Tow/Haul modes, optimizes powertrain calibrations for different conditions. An available 2-speed AutoTrac® transfer case allows you to seamlessly switch between 2- and 4-wheel drive depending on road conditions.
2022 GMC Sierra 2500: Towing and Hauling
When it comes to towing, the Sierra 2500 can handle a maximum towing capacity of 16,620 pounds when properly equipped with a gas-powered engine. With the available diesel-powered engine, the maximum towing capacity gets bumped up to 18,500 pounds when properly equipped. That's enough to tow an elephant-or maybe a large trailer or a flatbed filled with materials.
The cargo capabilities of the Sierra 2500 don't end there, as it also features a maximum payload capacity of over 3,800 pounds when properly equipped. This is along with a maximum cargo volume of up to 69.5 cubic feet.
Accessing and navigating your cargo box is made even easier with the available 6-function GMC MultiPro Tailgate, which offers functions like:
- Primary Gate Load Stop:Â With the primary gate open, the load stop can help prevent items from sliding out of the bed.
- Easy Access:Â The primary gate features a smaller inner gate that can fold down for easier access to the bed.
- Full-Width Step:Â The inner gate can also be folded into a large step, which holds up to 375 pounds, to allow for easy entry and exit from the bed.
- Inner Gate Load Stop:Â When the primary gate is closed, the inner gate can also become a load stop to keep second-tier items from sliding out of the bed.
- Inner Gate Work Surface:Â The inner gate can also be folded down into a work surface or used for second-tier loading.
The GMC MultiPro Tailgate can be used for all of these functions as well as a traditional primary gate for your truck bed.
