Differences Between the 2022 GMC Sierra Denali and Denali Ultimate
GMC trucks rank among the most popular models in both the full-size and midsize classes.

More recently, GMC doubled down on the Sierra’s available refinement and luxury by introducing more of both in the Denali Ultimate trim grade. Let’s take a closer look at the differences between the 2022 Sierra Denali and Denali Ultimate.
