GMC brought an off-road-ready heavy duty to the Detroit auto show: the Sierra All Terrain HD concept, a diesel answer to Ford’s Raptor that goes after towing and capability rather than pure desert speed.

The styling leans on an integrated front bumper and skid plate, cleanly blended together, with a grille that admittedly echoes the F-150 SVT Raptor. Under the hood is GM’s Duramax and Allison pairing: a 6.6-liter turbo diesel V8 backed by the Allison 1000 six-speed automatic.

Build highlights

  • 6.6L Duramax turbo diesel V8, 397 HP and 765 ft-lbs of torque
  • Allison 1000 six-speed automatic transmission
  • Rated to tow 6.5 tons (13,000 lbs)
  • 11% more fuel efficient and 63% fewer carbon emissions than the outgoing combo
  • Crew cab with a 5-foot-8 short bed
  • Integrated front bumper and skid plate
