Towing Capabilities
GMC Sierra already offers class-leading towing technology that gives exceptional light-duty towing. GMC has outdone itself with the all-new Enhanced ProGrade Trailering system, which features segment-first transparent trailer view and 15 total available camera views to give you more confidence when towing. With the added available cameras and transparent trailer view, drivers can now virtually see through the trailer to help navigate parking lots, merging into traffic, and making tight turns.
For the 2020 Sierra 1500, the in-vehicle Trailering App has updated features and enhanced mobile integration. The update allows for owners to create and edit trailer profiles through the myGMC app and load them into their truck to save time. In addition to this update, owners can share their trailer profile for easy transfer of vehicle specs. The in-vehicle Trailering App includes helpful maintenance reminders and trailer mileage.
The Control Control System allows you to control your trailer before you reach your destination. You have to ability to turn on the trailer’s air conditioning or water heater, check water and holding tank levels, or monitor fuel levels on trailers equipped with generators.
Technology
Along with class-leading towing capabilities, the 2020 Sierra 1500
has new available safety features. The available Adaptive Cruise Control Camera helps maintain a safe distance between the driver and vehicles ahead by automatically adjusting speed while using cruise control.

The 2019 Sierra 1500s had multiple engine options; although, it wasn’t until later in the year that they started offering a diesel engine. The all-new 2020 Sierra 1500 models will offer a year-round 3.0L Duramax turbo-diesel engine. The CarbonPro Editions package now includes the 3.0L Duramax turbo-diesel engine, which was previously only available with the 6.2L V8 engine.
The 3.0L Duramax inline-six turbo-diesel engine is now paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission; this combination will bring class-leading, SAE-certified 277 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque. The 10-speed automatic transmission is also now paired with the 5.3L V-8 with Dynamic Fuel Management. This pairing will come standard on the Sierra Denali, Sierra AT4, and is available on all four-wheel drive Sierras with the SLE trim level and above.
