2024 GMC Sierra 2500HD Crew Cab Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2024 GMC Sierra 2500HD is a heavy-duty pickup truck available in two-door regular-cab, four-door extended-cab (Double Cab) and four-door crew-cab configurations matched with the standard 6.8-foot or the long 8.1-foot cargo bed.

Seven trim levels are available. The Pro is the basic work truck, and the SLE builds on that with an upscale look and added equipment. Choose the SLT trim for leather and other premium amenities, the AT4 or new AT4X if off-roading is a part of your plans, or the Denali and new Denali Ultimate for the most luxurious versions of the Sierra 2500HD.

Additionally, GMC offers a choice between two engines, one gas and one diesel. A 6.6-liter gasoline V8 engine (401 horsepower, 464 lb-ft of torque) is standard, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. A turbocharged 6.6-liter diesel V8 engine (470 hp, 975 lb-ft) is optional and also uses a 10-speed automatic. Four-wheel drive is optional for the Pro, SLE and SLT, and it comes standard on the AT4 and higher trims.

Which Sierra 2500HD trim does Edmunds recommend?

For most people, we recommend the midrange SLT trim. It adds several features that dress up the interior and improve capabilities, making it feel much more polished than the rather spartan lower trims.
