However, a new concept vehicle from the automaker is doing quite a bit to expand what could be possible. You might not be able to buy the 2018 GMC Sierra All Mountain concept truck, but a prototype has been built and is on display at a ski resort in Vail, Colorado for the rest of the season. So, what did GMC make that has everyone so excited about these new possibilities? Let Billion Auto Group lead you through this rare glimpse of a possible future.

“With GMC’s focus on premium capability and design, we wanted to ensure that this concept took these signature attributes to an entirely new level,” Carl Zipfel, GMC exterior designer said in a press release. “The Sierra All Mountain concept Mattracks® technology enables the truck to conquer uncharted territory while highlighting premium interior features such as Bose speakers and upscale leather treatments.”
What is the GMC All Mountain concept truck?
Basically, GMC designers were given free rein to build the wildest truck they could think of with the sole purpose of tackling winter off-road driving. The 2018 GMC Sierra 2500HD gave the team a strong platform to start with. Under the hood, the All Mountain concept truck sports the turbocharged, 6.6-liter, Duramax diesel engine which is attached to the Allison six-speed automatic transmission. The powertrain is capable of making 445 horsepower and 910 pound-feet of torque. From there, the goal was to outfit the truck with the kind of accessories extreme off-road enthusiasts would love.
All Mountain Concept Equipment
- Mattracks 150 Series Tracks
- LED lights added to the wheel wells and underbody
- Thule brand snowboard racks
- Premium sound system by Kicker
- 30-inch light bar
