The premium Elevation and AT4 trims join the established Denali to complete the lineup with a starting MSRP of $64,495 (including a $2,095 destination fee), which is $25,000 less than the 2025 model year. The Sierra is GM’s third electric pickup, following the Chevy Silverado EV and GMC Hummer EV.

Underpinning the Sierra EV lineup is a broader selection of battery options:

  • Standard

  • Extended

  • Max Range

The Elevation trim will be available with a Standard or Extended Range battery, while AT4 will be available with an Extended or Max Range battery. The Denali trim will offer all three battery options. Range estimates for all trims will be announced closer to launch.

“With these additional trims and customer options, the Sierra EV is positioned right in the heart of the premium truck market,” said Jaclyn McQuaid, global vice president of Buick GMC. “The combination of Elevation, AT4, and Denali represents the most popular expressions of Sierra, accounting for more than 2 out of 3 of all Sierra light-duty sales. The result is a compelling all-electric lineup for those customers looking for cutting-edge technology, capability, and refinement.
