Chevrolet Silverado / GMC Sierra the Eighth of 15 Hottest New Cars for 2014 Forbes Version

Chevrolet Silverado / GMC Sierra the Eighth of 15 Hottest New Cars for 2014 Forbes Version – This is the Eighth of 15 Hottest New Cars for 2014 Forbes Version - Fully redesigned for 2014, General Motors’ full-size pickup trucks come with myriad structural and engineering revisions to enhance their already decent ride and handling characteristics.

 

 

We have to admit being disappointed with the Silverado and Sierra’s only modestly revised exterior designs that seem dated from day one. The trucks’ trio of “EcoTec3” engines include a new 4.3-liter V6 with 285 horsepower, a revised 5.3-liter V8 with a beefier 355 horsepower and a 6.2-liter V8 with 420 horses for heavier-duty use; all incorporate direct fuel injection for improved performance and selective cylinder shutdown for better fuel economy.

 

Both the Silverado and Sierra feature roomy and nicely styled interiors with newly added features including the optional MyLink infotainment system that allows users to place calls, operate the navigation system and control other functions via natural language voice-commands. The GMC comes in an opulent leather-clad Denali trim level that should bust the budget at over $50,000 fully loaded.
