The cars in the heavy-duty trucks segment are intended to be workhorses rather than only stylish vehicles. But the 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 HD specs include both. While the top-of-the-line Denali model is glamorous and loaded with many features, the interior is not as premium as the fancy Ram HD or the Ford Super Duty. But the 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 HD specs include a refined diesel powertrain, with the Duramax engine having a good torque level and capable of pulling more than 35,000 pounds. Unlike the Ram and Ford rivals, the car has an independent front suspension that gives impressive maneuverability and responsive steering. But the biggest versions are still far from agile when compared with the usual Sierra 1500. The 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 HD stands out because of some innovative features and some ingenious towing assists. But it is still not the top-heavy duty truck.

 

Utility

 

The 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 HD is built well. The truck does not have any major flaws in construction outside or inside. But the 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 HD, especially in the Denali trim, is pretty costly. It utilizes a lot of the middle-of-road interior materials of rivals. We would have liked materials to be of higher quality for a car that cost so much money. The ownership experience is only satisfactory for the segment. The 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 HD gives a moderate warranty for the segment, with five years of powertrain and three years of bumper-to-bumper coverage.

 

Technological Changes

 

Our 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 HD came with the infotainment touchscreen and the Bose premium sound system. The picture quality and the audio lived up to the class standards, but there is no fighting with the massive center screen of the 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 HD. The Android Auto and the Apple CarPlay are default with the car. The smartphones connect pretty quickly. The weak point is that the factory voice controls do not have natural language. They also have trouble with the usual commands. Google Voice and Siri will cover this weakness if you utilize them. We enjoyed the complete suite of advanced driver safety aids that is usual. But the blind-spot monitoring system and the forward collision warning are too oversensitive.

 

Driving Experience

 

The 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 HD has an excellent, optional diesel engine, and the automatic transmission that it is paired to is high-class. The engine and the torque propelled our car to 60 miles per hour in under seven and a half seconds. This is one of the better times in the segment. We were not so pleased with the brakes. The long and overly soft feel of the brake can reduce passenger confidence in the truck's abilities if you need to stop rapidly. The handling and steering are unremarkable. The steering is well-weighted but vague. Despite the size, the 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 HD tracks well around turns. The off-road capability and the in-town drivability are similarly moderate for the segment. Keep the 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 HD on the larger roads, and you will enjoy the car.

 

Comfort Factor

 

Without any cargo in the car, the 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 HD has a bouncy drive. The front seats also assist in boosting the score of the 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 HD with its supportive and comfortable padding. The lumbar support is great too. But things should be great on a lengthy road trip with smooth paths. The car's climate control system works swiftly and is functional by simple-to-use control knobs placed well on the dashboard. The wind and road noise is only moderate for this segment. However, there is a noticeable noise from the diesel engine upfront, especially when idle. You will never forget that you got the diesel variant of the car.

 

Conclusion

 

The 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 HD is a very good heavy-duty truck. The big cabin fits people and cargo without any problems. The towing and hauling capacities are robust. This is what you would expect from a car in the heavy-duty truck segment. The available tailgate also makes loading materials into the bed swiftly. But a few things are holding the car back, such as in-cabin technology that does not match up to the technology of the segment leaders, below-average visibility, and poor ride quality.
