Miami has a way of testing cars in a way few other cities do. Between I-95 gridlock, Biscayne Bay humidity and weekends that can start in Brickell and end in the Keys, a truck must be more than tough – it has to be versatile, luxurious, and ready for anything. The 2026 GMC Sierra EV AT4 Max Range feels like it was designed with that exact lifestyle in mind.
The headline figure that immediately grabs attention is the GM-estimated 478 miles of range in the Max Range configuration. That’s a serious number – enough to drive from Miami to Jacksonville or down to Key West and back on a single charge. Even when you factor in the realities of South Florida driving – full-blast air conditioning, highway speeds, and the occasional trailer or paddleboard load – it’s still a remarkable showing of range confidence.
Starting at $92,000, the AT4 badge on a GMC has always meant one thing: off-road readiness. For the Sierra EV, that translates into a lifted suspension and two extra inches of ground clearance, the kind of detail that pays off when navigating uneven parking lots, job sites, or flooded roads after a summer storm.
The truck rides on 35-inch all-terrain tires and includes a specialized terrain mode that manages torque and traction for low-speed off-pavement driving. GMC also equips the AT4 with cutting-edge features like four-wheel steering and the signature “crabwalk,” which lets the truck move diagonally to slip into tight spots, as well as super cruise, a hands-free highway assist system that’s ideal for long Florida drives.
While most Miami owners won’t be tackling mountain trails, the AT4’s capabilities still have real-world relevance. The added height helps with storm-season flooding and curb-to-curb maneuverability. Its toughness makes it just as comfortable at a construction site in Wynwood as it is backing up to a boat ramp in Coconut Grove. The truck’s look alone – broad stance, blacked-out trim, confident posture – gives it that commanding street presence that Miami drivers love.
The Sierra EV AT4 promises range and delivers performance. With roughly 725 horsepower and 775 pound-feet of torque, this electric pickup moves with authority. Acceleration is instant and silent, the kind of punch that makes merging onto I-95 or overtaking traffic on US1 effortless. The truck supports fast charging up to 350 kW, meaning you can add around 100 miles of range in just 10 minutes under optimal conditions.
That ease of charging transforms long-distance travel. Whether you’re heading north to Orlando or across Alligator Alley to Naples, a brief stop at a DC fast charger is all it takes to top off and continue. At home, a Level 2 charger keeps the truck ready for the week ahead.
From a Miami driver’s point of view, the Sierra EV AT4 Max Range checks most boxes. The extended range erases most “range anxiety” concerns, even with heavy AC use and traffic delays. The truck’s interior is pure luxury – rich materials, massive screens, and whisper-quiet cruising – and it feels right at home pulling up to a client meeting in Coral Gables or valet parking in Bal Harbour. For those who like to spend weekends on the water or on the road, the towing power and cargo flexibility make it ideal for trailers, jet skis or paddleboards.
Give the 2026 GMC Sierra EV a spin and tell me what you think.
