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 Good for them.
  • ToolGuy "I'm an excellent driver."
  • Tassos If a friend who does not care about cars asks me what to buy, I tell her (it usually is a she) to get a Toyota or a Lexus. If she likes more sporty cars, a Honda or a MiataIf a friend is a car nut, they usually know what they want and need no help. But if they still ask me, I tell them to get a Merc or AMG, a 911, even an M3 if they can fix it themselves. If they are billionaires, and I Do have a couple of these, a Ferrari or an even more impractical Lambo.
  • ToolGuy Good for them, good for me.
  • Tassos While I have been a very satisfied Accord Coupe and CIvic Hatch (both 5-speed) owner for decades (1994-2017 and 1991-2016 respectively), Honda has made a ton of errors later.Its EVs are GM clones. That alone is sufficient for them to sink like a stone. They will bleed billions, and will take them from the billions they make of the Civic, Accord, CRV and Pilot.Its other EVs will be overpriced as most Hondas, and few will buy them. I'd put my money on TOyota and his Hybrid and Plug-in strategy, until breaktrhus significantly improve EVs price and ease of use, so that anybody can have an EV as one's sole car.
