2010 GMC Sierra 1500

Strong brakes are important for stopping trucks, whether they're full of people, payload or both. The 2014 Sierra features four-wheel disc brakes with Duralife brake rotors, which feature a hardened and strengthened surface to reduce corrosion. Duralife rotors - a GM-exclusive technology - are expected to last twice as long as conventional rotors and provide quieter braking with less vibration.The 2014 Sierra also uses electric power steering. An electric motor in place of an engine-driven hydraulic pump saves fuel and allows for tuning that's expected to result in a more consistent, crisp steering feel and plenty of assist for parking maneuvers.The new standard in truck interiorsPremium materials, attention to detail and purposeful technology define GMC Sierra's all-new cabin. New soft-touch materials and available aluminum trim line an interior that's focused on usable and productive space.Truck owners want a well-crafted cabin, but also one that still feels like a truck, said Helen Emsley, Sierra interior design director. They want a purposeful interior, not one that's flowing like you'd find in a car or crossover.Sierra has an upright instrument panel designed for visibility and accessibility.

Along the center stack and center console are additional cupholders, discreet compartments large enough for most laptop computers, and connectivity options. Sierra is available with a 110-volt outlet, up to five USB ports, four 12-volt outlets and an SD card slot.Sierra sets a new standard for what's expected of a pickup truck interior, said DiSalle. Our customers told us how they use their trucks and we listened. The combination of comfort, safety, space and technology is unprecedented in the segment.Available IntelliLink connectivity uses an available high-definition, fully reconfigurable eight-inch color touchscreen with an intuitive layout and easy-to-read icons that control audio features, a Pandora app, Bluetooth phone features, and available navigation with all-new map displays. Many of the system's features can be controlled by voice command, allowing the driver to keep eyes on the road and hands on the wheel.GMC Sierra's seats use dual-density foam designed to stay comfortable over long hours and continue to look great after years of use.
