Stomp the throttle in Max Power mode and the gargantuan Sierra EV will rocket to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds, GM claims.

Better yet, the Sierra EV will have four-wheel steering that should make it more maneuverable in tight spaces

It will also enable the truck to turn all four wheels in the same direction and drive diagonally. GMC calls this feature "Crab Walk."

It has 350-kilowatt charging capability, which allows it to use the most powerful fast-charging stations around. It can add 100 miles of range in 10 minutes, GM says.

Thanks to outlets in the bed and elsewhere, the Sierra EV can provide electricity for power tools, tailgating gear, or even charging other electric vehicles.

Its battery is big enough to power "essential" home items for 21 days straight, GM says.

Storage is plentiful thanks to a 5-foot-11-inch bed.

The Multi-Pro Midgate — located between the bed and cab — lets owners haul extra-long items. They can fold down a section of the midgate or the entire thing to create a giant pass-through.

A front trunk provides some lockable, weather-proof storage space.
