General Motors is revealing its updates to the 2016 GMC Sierra lineup days after Chevrolet revealed its new face for the 2016 Silverado.

In a video posted to its YouTube channel (via Automotive News), GMC trotted out the new front fascias, bumpers and C-shaped LED daytime running lamps for the full-size pickup.

The video shows three trims of the GMC Sierra 1500, including Denali (pictured below), SLT and All-Terrain, all with unique front ends and in varying levels of chrome-iness.

In addition to the bumpers, daytime lights and front fascia, the new Sierra will have C-shaped LED taillights.

GMC said more details about the truck would be released in “coming months.”

On Monday, Chevrolet announced the Silverado would be sporting a body-colored grille and two strips of LED lights on higher trim levels.

Here’s the video:

    I agree with Lou_BC regarding the 2014 steel F-150 Ford'ish looks to the front end. This might work in GMC's favour as Ford loses 1/2 ton pickup sales. I saw on Bloomberg yesterday Ford is fighting back with $10 000 worth of incentives on the new aluminium F-150 wonder truck.....what a fantastically successful move on Ford's part this pickup is. If this mindset continues with the aluminium pickups, the next Ford aluminium HD wonder trucks might sell at the same rate the new aluminium F-150 has........near on Ram numbers. Ford wake up to yourself. The transit was a success, find other global platforms like the Transit to transplant into the US market place, ie, the global Ranger.

      Also, I'm in Florida this week. The newspaper ads have dealers advertising Silverados and RAMs at 20%-30% off MSRP.

    I am curious as to what the height of these trucks are. From the top of the hood to the edge of the air dam looks as though the front end alone is more than 6' high! It can't be easy parking these rigs in tight spaces! My '83 Silverado & '93 S-10 Xcab just keeps looking better and better (compared to these overstyled monstrosities)!:-)

  • ToolGuy Let's count the poor decisions: Honda 18 model years past peak Honda. Ohio. Following too closely ('rock on the highway' doesn't leap up and attack your vehicle by itself, it is riding on a vehicle or thrown up by a vehicle, and you should be alert to this). Ohio. Not enough doors. Choosing to expand family -- in Ohio. 😉
  • ToolGuy Took me a minute to post; had to go back and see which account I was using the last time I commented on this topic (consistency is important). Thank you for your patience.
  • ToolGuy Ok wow, just wow. I used to live in America. Land of the free -- have I heard that somewhere? And here come TTAC writers and commentariat goose stepping in lockstep, dancing on the grave of liberty. Didn't your dysfunctional homeowners association get all that government overreach out of your system? I thought we won WW2, guess I was mistaken.
  • Dartman If one is so hellbent on drawing attention to themselves just mount a big “Trump 2024” or “Black Lives Matter” flag (your choice) on your truck and call it day. Lot cheaper, same result.
  • AZFelix I'd buy a 'harlequin' edition if it was composed of a company's complete palette of greys and silver.Family had a couple of Pontiacs in teal and purple in years past. I was not a fan.My current ride is Lakeside Blue.
