The 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 SLE offers a range of powerful engine options, allowing buyers to choose the right level of performance for their needs.

Additionally, the 2018 Sierra 1500 SLE is available with either rear-wheel drive (RWD) or four-wheel drive (4WD), depending on the desired level of traction and off-road capability.
