4 KEY FEATURES OF THE 2021 GMC SIERRA 3500

Heavy-duty pickup trucks are the best of the best. They're tough enough to handle any job, but some HD trucks are better than others. Today, we're looking at one of the best HD trucks on the market, the 2021 GMC Sierra 3500. Here are four key features that set this truck apart from other trucks in its superior class. 

4 Key Features of the 2021 GMC Sierra 3500

1. Luxurious Spaciousness

One of the key features that separates the 2021 Sierra 3500 from its competition is its luxuriously spacious cabin. Some trucks can only comfortably fit two adult passengers. On the other hand, this  HD pickup truck can comfortably sit six adults. In fact, this truck has more personal space for all of its passengers than any other truck in its class.

2. Payload and Towing Capacity

The payload and towing capacity of this tough pickup truck also help to set it apart from the competition. Depending on how you customize your powertrain, you may be able to tow up to 36,000 pounds. There is no other heavy-duty pickup that can match this. This impressive towing capacity is thanks to the 910 lb.-ft. of torque that can be produced by the 6.6L diesel V8 motor. Also, you can haul up to 7,442 pounds in this truck's massive bed.

3. Range

This pickup's range is another key feature. You can easily go over 600 miles on a single tank of fuel thanks to the 36-gallon fuel tank and ability to get nearly 20 miles per gallon on the highway. According to the EPA, this pickup truck will also get an estimated 15 miles per gallon in the city, averaging 17 miles per gallon total.

4. Safety

The 2021 Sierra 3500 features a wide variety of standard safety measures. The Automatic Emergency Braking System is among these standard safety features and one of the most beneficial. If you see traffic slowing down significantly up ahead, the vehicle will brake harder for you if you're not braking hard enough. If you don't respond to the slowing vehicle up ahead, it will apply the brakes for you automatically. Also, the Rear Cross-Traffic Alert feature comes standard on each 2021 Sierra 3500. This isn't just great when you're trying to back your truck up while towing a massive trailer. It is also very helpful when you're backing out of a tight parking space. Another great safety feature that comes standard on this truck is the Lane Departure Warning. If you've been driving for too long, and you start to drift out of your lane, your truck will warn you so you can prevent a side collision. The 2021 Sierra 3500 has a lot going for it. It has best-in-class personal space for its passengers, a very impressive range, and more than enough towing and payload capacity to tackle the toughest job.
