Futuristic-looking SUV gets the original Sierra's design bits.
The Sierra features a boxy yet futuristic design overall. At the front are slim, connected LED DRLs and headlamps encased in black trim, which also forms the grille.

LED fog lamps are located on the bumper, which also features a black finish along with a faux silver skid plate.
In profile, details include a thick B-pillar and a black painted section of the roof between the B- and C-pillars, which is a nod to the original Sierra. There’s also black cladding on the wheel arches and along the lower edges of the doors. Top trims of the Sierra come with 19-inch wheels finished in a two-tone design. Dimension-wise, the SUV is the tallest, widest, and has the longest wheelbase in its class.
The rear end of the Sierra is upright, with a slim LED light bar running the width of the tailgate. The bumper gets a black finish and a faux silver skid plate, and the tailgate blends into it.
