General Motors has been busy posting its hottest renderings and design ideas to social media, giving us a look at some of the artistic inspiration that goes into various GM products. For example, we recently got a look at a futuristic GMC TopKick, as well as a concept for the Chevy Impala. Now, we’re taking a look at this wild GMC pickup rendering.
Created by GM designer Karan Moorjani, who also helped to pen the all-new 2020 GMC Sierra HD, this GMC pickup rendering looks hugely aggressive, with the sort of design cues you might expect from an off-road racer primed to compete in a high-profile event in 2050.
Let’s start in front, where the GMC badge is done in the traditional red against a black grille treatment. The grille insert utilizes black squares and vertical bars, with a pinched shape that includes indents added in the corners – just like the production GMC Sierra.
This GMC pickup rendering also comes with large red tow hooks in the lower fascia, which are added to either side of a sturdy-looking bash plate. The fascia rises into triangular headlamps, with curvaceous body segments giving it a muscular look. The triangular shape is repeated high in the hood with new intakes placed one either side.
The stance for this GMC pickup rendering is tall and wide, stretching side-to-side over pumped-up fender flares and ultra-aggressive off-road rubber. The wheel center caps are also done in red.
Up top, the cab is chopped down, while heavy body indents give this GMC pickup even more visual impact.
Naturally, this wild GMC pickup rendering isn’t the sort of thing you’d expect to make it direct to production. Rather, it simply provides inspiration for the final product.

Are we going to still be using pneumatic tires in 2050? I would think they would be the weakest link by then!
Okay, so this concept illustration doesn’t look bad, it could even bring influence (to a degree) towards the styling of the 2023 Canyon, overall a peak into GM’s future of 2050 pretty much could mean Autonomous Packages across the entire spectrum of their Trucks and SUV’s, even if they are limited to select Trim Levels, and hopefully EV Ranges of 800 miles or more considering electrification will be in full swing during that time.
Looks good. Unfortunately since it does look good it’ll never make it into production. If its not an Equinox or Acadia GM isn’t interested. Try again
looks like an isuzu vehicross on steroids.
Guessing how any vehicle may look in 30 years time is a guess at best because we have no idea of what type of advancements will be made between now and 2050.
Looks like it got stung by a Bee…
Looks like a cheap knock off from some brand in India
can’t see out front good at all…crush everything. Can’t get in it..certainly cannot change a flat..total heads up vision all around? totally autonomous? yeeeeesh…
By 2050 it will have to be electric but it doesn’t look that way now. Unless of course the catalytic converter is as massive as the truck and cleans ALL green house gasses from the exhaust.
The only weak point in the design is the headlight design.
