Overview of the 2024-2025 GMC Lineup

GMC’s 2024-2025 lineup addresses the diverse needs of Quebec drivers—whether navigating snowy roads or taking long family journeys. Standout models include the Sierra 1500, Terrain, Canyon, Savana, and SUVs like the Yukon and Acadia. Notably, the upcoming GMC Hummer EV and continued work on the Sierra EV underscore the brand’s dedication to electric mobility.

GMC Sierra 1500 2024 Pricing and Deals

The GMC Sierra 1500 remains a top choice among Quebec pickup enthusiasts. The 2024 edition features:

• New or refined engines (5.3L V8, 6.2L V8, 3.0L Duramax diesel)
• Upgraded trims (SLE, SLT, AT4, Denali) differing in upholstery, tech, and materials
• Base pricing around CA$45,000, climbing to CA$80,000 for top-tier configurations (e.g., Denali Ultimate)

Promotional offers vary by season and dealership (reduced APR, trade-in discounts). Some retailers include add-ons (tonneau cover, side steps) at preferential rates.

GMC Vehicles at Garage Tardif Amos

In Amos, Garage Tardif carries a broad selection of new Sierra 1500 2024, new Terrain models, and used vehicles (e.g., Acadia 2023 pre-owned). Quebec customers appreciate the local proximity and tailored service, including winter maintenance for pickups and business needs (HD fleet, Savana vans).

GMC’s 2024 SUVs: Terrain, Acadia, Yukon

New GMC Terrain Available in Amos

The GMC Terrain is the brand’s compact SUV. With its refined styling and multiple trims (SLE, SLT, AT4, Denali), it appeals to a wide audience. Key highlights:

• Economical 1.5L Turbo engine with a 9-speed automatic
• Active safety suite: forward collision warning, lane keep assist, blind-spot detection
• Enhanced interior on upper trims (Denali) with leather and decorative inserts

With up to 1792 L of cargo room (rear seats folded) and optional AWD, the Terrain suits Quebec’s harsh winters.

GMC Yukon 2024 Dimensions and Cargo Space

Targeting large families, the Yukon 2024 offers:

• Length exceeding 5.30 m, seating 7–9 passengers depending on setup
• Over 2500+ L of cargo room with the rear seats down (even more in the Yukon XL)
• 5.3L or 6.2L V8 engines, plus a 3.0L Duramax diesel option
• An AT4 variant (off-road focus) with red tow hooks, specialized tires

Its roomy interior, towing capability, and adapted suspension make it a staple for Quebec’s wintry roads and long journeys.

GMC Acadia 2023 Used for Sale

The Acadia, an intermediate SUV, often found on used lots, offers:

• 3.6L V6 (310 hp) or 2.0L Turbo (230 hp)
• 6- or 7-passenger layouts for family travel
• Positioned above the Chevy Traverse in refinement, but below the Buick Enclave

A 2023 pre-owned Acadia can be an excellent value for those needing space and comfort but wanting a deal on pricing.

The 2024 GMC Trucks: Canyon, Sierra HD, Savana

GMC Canyon 2024 Diesel Engine Option

The GMC Canyon is the brand’s mid-size pickup:

• Possible Duramax 2.8L Diesel (availability may vary) or a 2.7L Turbo gas
• AT4 (off-road) and Denali (luxury) trims for different buyer profiles
• Upgraded interior (larger touchscreen, improved materials, 360° camera, etc.)

It fits those wanting truck capabilities without the bulk of a full-size Sierra, offering adequate payload and a comfortable cabin.

GMC HD Trucks (2500/3500) Towing Capacities

The Sierra HD trucks cater to heavy-duty tasks:

• Powerful engines (6.6L gas V8 or 6.6L Duramax diesel exceeding 900 lb-ft torque)
• Towing capacity beyond 18,000 lb with fifth wheel (configuration-dependent)
• Features like trailer side blind zone alert, integrated trailer brake, and reinforced suspensions

Perfect for construction pros or owners of large RVs or boats.

GMC Savana Utility Van in Amos

The GMC Savana remains a go-to for commercial fleets:

• Two roof heights and lengths, exceeding 8,000 L cargo volume
• Gas or diesel engines known for durability
• Customizable interior (shelves, partitions, ladder racks)

GMC Electric Models: Hummer EV and Sierra EV

GMC Hummer EV Range and Features

The GMC Hummer EV resurrects the Hummer name in a 100% electric format:

• 700–1,000+ hp, using 2 or 3 electric motors
• Range of ~450–560 km
• “Crab Walk” mode for diagonal movement off-road
• A steep price point (CA$100,000+) and lengthy wait times

A tech and power spectacle, but reserved for those with deeper pockets and patience.

GMC Electric 2024 (Sierra EV) Release Date

The Sierra EV, akin to the Silverado EV, is expected in late 2024/early 2025:

• Range ~500 km, depending on battery choice
• Trims like SLE, SLT, Denali with potential for bidirectional charging
• Fast-charging DC (up to 350 kW) for 80% replenishment in ~45 min

This strategy displays GMC’s broader move into electrification, complementing its existing diesel lineup.

GMC Trims, Powertrains, and Future Outlook

Differences in Sierra Trims: SLE vs. SLT vs. Denali

The Sierra pickup offers multiple trims:

• SLE: mid-range spec with solid equipment for the price
• SLT: higher-level comfort (leather, improved audio, more driver assists)
• Denali: top-tier luxury (chrome grille, premium cabin, adaptive suspension)

Each appeals to different customers, from budget-conscious to those seeking premium features.

What Does Denali Mean at GMC?

Denali signifies GMC’s luxury line, named after North America’s highest peak (in Alaska). Denali models come with:

• Exclusive chrome grille
• Opulent interior (perforated leather, wood trims, cooled/heated seats)
• Cutting-edge tech (HUD, advanced cruise, etc.)

Suited for those wanting a premium truck or SUV for daily driving.

Best GMC Truck for Towing

For heavier trailers (RVs, boats), the Sierra HD (2500/3500) is unrivaled. The Duramax diesel’s high torque can surpass 18,000 lb in towing capacity. For slightly less heavy loads, a Sierra 1500 (6.2L V8 or 3.0L diesel) also delivers respectable towing of 9,000–13,000 lb, depending on configuration.

Most Fuel-Efficient GMC Model

Among GMC SUVs, the Terrain (1.5L Turbo) or Acadia (2.0L Turbo) achieve lower consumption than bigger Yukons. For pickups, the 3.0L Duramax diesel in the Sierra 1500 can yield ~8–9 L/100 km on highways if driven gently. However, rising diesel prices in Quebec may affect overall fuel costs. Looking ahead, the Sierra EV (or a future Canyon EV) might be a zero-emissions option if you have charging access.

GMC Sierra 2024 vs. 2023: Upgrades

Compared to 2023, the 2024 Sierra brings:

• Minor styling tweaks (revised grille, wheel designs, new paint colors)
• A refreshed interior (up to a 13.4" infotainment screen, digital instrument cluster)
• Possible refinements to the Duramax diesel (improved efficiency, more torque)

Conclusion

For Quebec customers seeking a truck, an SUV, or a commercial van, GMC’s 2024-2025 lineup offers extensive options. From the versatile Sierra 1500 to HD versions for heavier demands, plus the compact Terrain or the family-friendly Yukon, GMC covers most requirements. Denali (luxury) and AT4 (off-road) trims illustrate the brand’s goal to address a wide Quebec market.

The emergence of the Hummer EV and the forthcoming Sierra EV highlight GMC’s commitment to electrification, while Duramax diesel remains a mainstay for fuel economy and heavy towing. Dealerships like Garage Tardif in Amos provide direct access to these new offerings, often paired with special deals. Before buying, compare trims (SLE, SLT, Denali), check current incentives, and assess priorities (towing, MPG, comfort, off-road).

In short, GMC stands tall in Quebec, blending toughness, style, and tech across a varied lineup. Whether you’re an entrepreneur needing an HD pickup, a family wanting a roomy SUV, or an EV enthusiast, a GMC model likely meets your needs. Over time, the brand cements its position as a Canadian leader for tackling snowy roads and everyday challenges in La Belle Province.
