Design of the 2019 GMC Sierra
The 2019 GMC Sierra has undergone updates for both exterior and interior to look more rugged than before. Thanks to several minor and major design refinements, the exterior is now more muscular and stylish, while the interior is spacious and comfortable than ever before.
Exterior
The exterior of the 2019 GMC Sierra features sharp proportions that give the vehicle an athletic appeal. The front fascia has been updated to enhance the authoritative profile of the sturdy pickup truck. Fulfilling the true GMC criteria, the new chrome-finished grille covers almost the entire front fascia and makes the vehicle look commanding and authoritative.
The new grille has been made larger than the previous one and features a hexagonal shape to accentuate the urban appeal of the vehicle. Flanking the grille on both sides are the unique C-shaped high-intensity LED headlamps to complement the signature GMC lighting style.
Just below the headlights are two large air intakes that house thin-profile LED fog lamps. The air intakes work with the front grille to streamline airflow towards the powerful engine of the vehicle while the LED fog lamps ensure ample illumination in low visibility conditions.
A heavily sculpted hood has been added to the vehicle to make it look more aggressive and dominating. The muscular fenders, long wheelbase, high ground clearance and 20-inch bright aluminum wheels augment the wide and muscular stance of the adventure-ready vehicle. To enhance the distinctive look of the GMC Sierra, 22-inch multi-dimensional aluminum wheels have also been made available as an optional feature.
There are wraparound LED taillights at the rear of the vehicle that have been given a new bulging look and the tailgate has also received a design update. There are bright, polished dual exhaust outlets that go perfectly with the chrome accents featured on the rest of the vehicle.
The exterior of the 2019 GMC Sierra has been made available in 10 colors that include Stone Blue Metallic, Onyx Black, Quicksilver Metallic, Summit White, Cardinal Red, Mineral Metallic, Deep Mahogany Metallic, Red Quartz Tintcoat, Dark Slate Metallic and White Frost Tricoat.
