Want more than double the horsepower on the 2026 GMC Sierra or Chevy Silverado pickup truck?

Specialty Vehicle Engineering has got you covered with its new Supercharged Sport Edition Sierras and its Yenko/SC Silverados, which come in engine choices of 700, 800 — or a whopping 1,000 horsepower.

That tops by a longshot the 420-horsepower V8, the most powerful engine option for the 2026 standard factory Sierras and Silverados.

The company says it solved the problem with a Boost-By-Wire Control System.

“The system we’ve developed works very simply; the more you press the accelerator pedal, the more boost your supercharger will produce. You still get all the neck-snapping instant power from the positive displacement supercharger, but it is now controlled with your foot as you need it and makes the vehicle much more pleasant to drive.”

Along with the power boost, the new SVE models get some added style to the exterior and interior.

They get “aggressive” quarter-panel graphics and unique wheels. Custom 700 hp, 800 hp or 1,000 hp badges, depending on the chosen engine power, come on the hood insert and tailgate.

Inside the Sierras, a Sport Edition Supercharged Off Road logo is embroidered on the front headrests. The inside also features embroidered floormats and other appearance upgrades from the standard factory Sierra.

The Yenko Silverado models get similar styling but with SYC Supercharged embroidered front headrests and Yenko crest embroidered floormats.
