GMC Valencia, Santa Clarita, Los Angeles

The 2006 model year shows GMC upgrading every vehicle in its extensive lineup, improving on an already solid foundation committed to Professional Grade quality. More power has been added to the Sierra and Savana, while the Canyon has a new available sport suspension for your consideration. The Envoy and Envoy XL have received major face lifts, and the Yukon now come equipped with OnStar, Stabilitrak – Stability Control and a Tire Pressure Monitor as standard equipment.

In 2006, a more powerful Duramax Diesel was introduced, while the Sierra 1500 enjoyed an available new Vortec High Output V8 engine. The new Duramax engine can now also run on a B5 diesel fuel, which contains 5% biodiesel component. Biodiesel is made from renewable agricultural resources and provides fewer emissions than petroleum-based fuel. While these engines continue to grow, GMC also presents the environmentally-conscious Sierra Parallel Hybrid truck, available nationwide in limited quantities in 2006. The Hybrid runs on a combination of gasoline and self-generated electrical power.
