2026 GMC Sierra 3500: powertrains, performance and towing capacity 

The 2026 GMC Sierra 3500, offered at a starting price of $71,825*, provides a straightforward powertrain duo:

  • Standard on almost the entire lineup, a 6.6L gas V8 delivering 401 horsepower and 464 lb-ft of maximum torque, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission.
  • If you want maximum hauling strength, step up to the 6.6L Duramax turbodiesel V8, rated at 470 horsepower and 975 lb-ft of maximum torque.

If you tow heavy often, spend a lot of time on the highway, and want the best fuel economy for your 2026 GMC Sierra 3500, the turbodiesel will fit the bill. It also delivers the best towing capacity for your 2026 GMC Sierra 3500, at 36,000 lb.

Your choice among double cab, regular cab or crew cab will also affect your towing ability. The same goes for your choice of cargo bed, engine and accessories. If you would rather have a truck type that is easier to manage day to day, consider the Sierra 2500 HD.

PRO ADVICE

“This is where the Sierra 3500 shows its true colours. It gives you serious muscle, and you also enter the world of double rear wheels. It is a massive truck, built for real heavy work and regular intensive needs. It’s not the pickup you choose to slip easily through narrow city streets.”

‒ Alexandre Rivest, Sales Consultant

2026 GMC Sierra 3500: dimensions and weight

The GMC Sierra 3500 HD shows weight and dimensions that vary widely by configuration. It is available as a 3-seat regular cab, a 6-seat double cab, and a 6-seat crew cab that is even more spacious.

For the bed, you can choose a standard 2,089 mm cargo bed or a long 2,496 mm cargo bed. Depending on configuration, the truck can also be fitted with single rear wheels or dual rear wheels, which obviously changes its mission and load potential.

Maximum payload can reach 7,290 lb. (3,307 kg) on specific trims.

PRO ADVICE

“Simply put, the higher you go in luxury, the more you trade a bit of raw capacity for refinement. It is not a flaw. It is just the product logic.”

‒ Alexandre Rivest, Sales Consultant
