Description

AMP Research PowerStep Smart Series - Chevy Silverado & GMC Sierra (2019-2023)

The Next Generation of Step Control. Bluetooth App Integration. Chiseled Profile.

Ultimate Control at Your Fingertips

The AMP Research PowerStep Smart Series is the latest innovation for 2019-2023 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra owners who demand more from their electric running boards. This system moves beyond simple automation, giving you full control via a dedicated smartphone app.

Whether you are loading gear on the roof and need the steps to stay deployed, or navigating deep mud and want them securely tucked away, the Smart Series provides the flexibility to override the system instantly. Proudly Made in the USA, this system features a modernized, chiseled design specifically developed to flow with the bold body lines of your Silverado or Sierra.

The Problem & The Solution:

The Pain: Taller trucks are hard to enter, but traditional power steps can be stubborn—deploying when you don't want them to or requiring a messy dashboard-mounted manual switch for control.
The Smart Solution: The In-App Manual Override eliminates the need for extra dashboard switches. Control your steps and the integrated LED light system wirelessly through your phone (iOS or Android).

Truck Owner Review ★★★★★

"The Smart Series is a huge step up (literally) for my Silverado. The app is a game-changer—I can keep the steps down while I’m washing the truck without having to stand in the door frame. They match the rugged look of the HD body perfectly and the LED lighting is bright enough to actually see the ground at night."

- Robert M., Silverado 2500 HD Owner
Maintenance & Performance Note

Cleaning Instructions: To keep your PowerSteps operating smoothly, simply pressure wash the pivot points regularly to remove mud and road salt. No lubrication is typically required due to the self-lubricating bushings.

Prop 65

California Residents

Prop 65 Warning- Product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

Proposition 65 is a California law passed in 1986. Its goals are to protect drinking water sources from toxic substances that may cause cancer and birth defects and to reduce or eliminate exposures to those chemicals generally, for example in consumer products, by requiring warnings in advance of those exposures.

The regulation requires the State of California to revise and republish yearly a list of chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The current list contains over 900 naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals. This regulation also requires manufacturers to place warnings on products that contain any of the chemicals listed by the State of California. No other states require warnings of this nature, and products with Prop 65 warning language are legal to sell in all states. Detailed information regarding requirements for compliance to the California Prop. 65 is can be found at: www.P65Warning.ca.gov
