Sporty AEV Edition Added To The 2024 GMC Sierra HD AT4X

GMC's recent introduction of the Sierra 2500HD AT4X trim came as a delightful surprise to many. The latest offering from the automaker is the highly anticipated AEV Edition package.

The 2024 GMC Sierra HD AT4X is a remarkable upgrade from the standard Sierra HD. Thanks to a suspension lift, the vehicle is now positioned an inch and a half higher. Also included are Multimatic DSSV dampers and 35-inch all-terrain tires, a cutting-edge e-locking differential at the rear axle, enhanced steering knuckles, and new upper and lower control arms at the front.

It's important to ensure that your vehicle is equipped with the necessary protection to handle off-road adventures. One option is to install an aluminum skid plate at the front, which can help prevent damage to the undercarriage. Additionally, a larger steel skid plate can be added to protect the transfer case.

The latest addition to the Sierra HD AT4X is the off-road mode. The system has the ability to adjust various aspects of the vehicle's performance, including the anti-lock brakes, stability and traction controls, throttle response, and shifting of the 10-speed Allison automatic gearbox. It's worth noting that the car has an impressive towing capacity of up to 18,500 pounds. You can choose between two engine options: the 6.6-liter gasoline unit or the turbocharged 6.6-liter Duramax diesel.

Off-road enthusiasts seeking a bolder look for their Sierra HD can opt for the AEV Edition, which is essentially a cosmetic upgrade. Apart from the unique badging, the vehicle comes equipped with 18-inch wheels tailored to its trim level and brand new steel bumpers that feature a built-in winch and tow hooks. Unfortunately, pricing information is still unavailable at this time. Stay tuned for the official announcement, which is expected to be made in the coming months.
