This new Sierra is going to very much resemble the Chevrolet Silverado vehicle but it can be now offered up like a basic truck version. The trims are a little different from each version.
This is going to be the car that should be chosen if the truck look is found though this is really great when it comes to the fuel economy however. There will be the V-8 6.2 liter engine or the V-6 4.3 liter engine. These are going to be available with both the six and four speed automatic transmission.
This is going to look like a massive full sized truck that comes with the four and six speed automatic transmission. The models are the SLE, Denali, Hybrid, SLT and Sierra 1500.
With the engines they will come in the V-6 4.3 liter engine, the V-8 6.2 liter engine, the V-8 4.8 liter engine and the V-8 5.3 liter engine also.
This new 2011 model has been a carryover from the former model though there are a few more choices over the grey green metallic color which looks perfect in fact though this comes with an improved 9.0 OnStar system.
The modifications mean that the noise levels for the interior is lower considerably which is great if the driver doesn’t want to be bothered with the road noise. This also helps to reduce the wind noise from outside also but the car is overall good enough, the suspension is impressive and the power trains mix is good also.
The exterior of the car is very broad and built well though the grille is quite outstanding which is not always a great thing however but the Sierra is a great looking truck however. This is going to have a chrome hood molding however which is a little more distinctive than ever before; the choices over the wheel options are also great as well.
The interior of the car is a fantastic pickup truck but the features are quite big in fact and the handles and controls over these are a little bit overrated. The base trim level is a little bit on the downside of appealing; there are also good options over the entertainment also.
With this handling and performance of the car it is a little mixed in fact; this is going to have a good diverse power train that could be the V-6 4.3 liter engine which handles a horsepower of one hundred and ninety five. There is also the V-8 6.2 liter engine which can produce a massive four hundred and eight of horsepower with this engine.
Both of these engines are going to come with the six speed automatic or the four speed automatic transmission. What is more is that the car can handle a massive towing power of ten thousand, seven hundred pounds.
This is not perfect when it comes to turning corners but the overall performance of the car is pretty good in fact even with the five suspension configuration.
When it comes to the safety features of this GMC Sierra then it will become one of the best cars on the market today that is also among the highest ad very safest of cars also. With this 2011 Sierra this has really been great to help improve the safety of this car.
The StabiliTrak is present with this car and it really is great so that there is the rollover mitigation technology and control system also included. This is really one of the major parts of the back bone of this GMC Sierra however because the features are great however even with the airbags in this car.
There will be the seat mounted side and head curtain airbags though there is a good safety belts installed so that they really help to take the impact if there are any rear collisions with this car.
This has got a fuel economy of around nineteen to twenty two mpg for the highways as well as the city for thirteen to fifteen mpg however with the hybrid version, it will be the twenty two mpg for the highway and twenty one mpg for the city roads. This is some good numbers though there is still a lot of room to be impro
