DETROIT -- GMC is refreshing its Sierra pickup for the 2016 model year with a redesigned front end in a bid to keep the sales momentum going for one of General Motors' most profitable vehicles.

A video posted on GMC's YouTube site shows the 2016 truck equipped with C-shaped LED daytime running lights, new LED fog lamps and tail lamps, and new bumpers.

Each trim level of the truck also will get its own grille design for 2016.

A GMC spokesman said more information would be available about the '16 model closer to its on-sale date, sometime in the fourth quarter.
