The 2015 GMC Sierra.
The Sierra's sister vehicle, the Chevrolet Silverado, also is getting a refresh for 2016, GM said this week.
Both trucks have been on a sales roll in the U.S. despite some gripes from some dealers and analysts about ho-hum styling when they were launched two years ago.
U.S. sales of the Sierra jumped 8.2 percent through the first six months of the year. Silverado sales increased 15 percent. Overall, deliveries of large pickups have increased 4.7 percent across the industry this year through June.
The 2016 Sierra goes on sale in the fourth quarter, GMC said today.
GM's share of the U.S. large pickup market has increased to 37.2 percent this year from 34.5 percent through June 2014.
The updates to GM's big pickups follow the launch of Ford Motor Co.'s redesigned F-150 pickup for 2015. And Nissan Motor Co.'s overhauled Titan pickup will go on sale later this year.
