GMC is revolutionizing the 2024 Sierra 1500 lineup with impressive upgrades that will catch your attention. The AT4X off-road pickup now comes standard with the 305-horsepower turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six Duramax diesel engine, a powerhouse to be reckoned with. There is also a new range of colors, including the bold Thunderstorm Gray and the sleek and modern Downpour metallic, along with two new wheel options, which will surely make a statement on the roads. You’ll also want to check out the new 310-horsepower turbocharged 2.7-liter inline-four engine, also known as the TurboMax.
The 2024 Tundra has a few cosmetic and package updates. The Platinum Grade now comes with the option of the TRD Off-Road package. This upgrade adds a touch of sleekness to your vehicle with a black grille and color-keyed surround, black mirror caps, window surrounds, over fenders and badging, and body color-and-black door handles. The Limited Grade offers the Nightshade package and now comes with a full-size 12.3-inch digital instrument panel that is standard. Additionally, the head-up display is now a freestanding option, which was only available bundled with the load-leveling air suspension on Platinum and 1794 Grades. You can now get the factory three-inch lift kit on all models except the TRD Pro. The lift kit gives you better ground clearance and a more aggressive look without compromising the vehicle's performance.
Once you step inside the Sierra, you'll immediately notice that the driver was the top priority in the design process. Every control is conveniently placed within easy reach, providing a seamless driving experience. The materials used in the highest trim levels are of the utmost quality, ensuring a luxurious feel. The SLE model is equipped with a 12.3-inch digital instrument panel. The Denali Ultimate trim is the pinnacle of luxury, offering exquisite open-pore wood trim and a multitude of leather-covered surfaces.

The Sierra 1500 offers ample storage space with plenty of cubbies to store all your small items. You'll enjoy the versatile, multi-configurable tailgate and the exclusive, carbon-fiber-reinforced cargo bed that's both lighter and stronger than steel.
The 2024 Tundra has improved material quality and design over its previous generation. However, it lacks any new or innovative features to set it apart from other trucks in its segment. The interior features a sturdy dashboard with noticeable air vents and a smooth center section that connects the door panels. Analog gauges with a small driver-information display come standard, but the premium trims offer a 12.3-inch digital instrument panel gauge cluster. The Tundra comes in two body styles: the extended cab (Double Cab) with a 6.5- or 8.1-foot bed and the crew cab (CrewMax) with a 5.5- or 6.5-foot bed. If you opt for the extended cab, you'll have slightly less rear-seat legroom than the crew cab, with just 33.3 inches instead of 41.6 inches.
