​​5 Reasons To Love The GMC Canyon​

The GMC Canyon is one of the most perfect trucks of the modern era. If you need a truck that can haul and tow while still carrying up to five people comfortably, the Canyon is perfect. What if you want a truck that’ll let you drive to work during the week and then empower you to take it off-roading or camping on the weekend? With the AT4 and AT4X trim levels, GMC makes it easy to have your cake and eat it, too. And thanks to a powerful, efficient engine, the Canyon is a do-it-all truck without compromise. Here are five great reasons to love the GMC Canyon.  

Perfect Style  

One of the first things buyers will fall in love with is how good the GMC Canyon looks. GMC designers found a way to make the Canyon look both bold and high-end. No matter the trim level you choose, whether the base Elevation, the off-road-ready AT4, or the ultra-luxurious Denali, there is a style that fits every buyer’s taste.  

An Engine to Write Home About 

A truck is only as good as the powertrain that helps it meet your needs. With the TurboMax 2.7-liter turbocharged inline-4, the Canyon has 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque. The standard rear-wheel drive Canyon Elevation achieves an EPA-estimated 19 mpg city and 23 mpg highway. Adding 4WD only drops that figure by one mpg in each cycle. The hefty amount of torque offered in the Canyon easily bests numerous competitors’ trucks, including the Toyota Tacoma, Honda Ridgeline, and Jeep Gladiator. The Honda and Jeep even come with larger V6 engines, but they still fall short.  

The Ability to Tow Nearly Anything 

Thanks to that beefy amount of power and torque, owners are able to tow up to 7,700 lbs in the Elevation, AT4, and Denali trims when properly equipped. Even the heavy-duty off-road AT4X, with its specially tuned off-road suspension and knobby tires, can still tow up to 6,000 lbs. Being able to easily tow a trailer, camper, car, horses, and the like makes the Canyon a standout option when truck shopping.  

An Interior to Die For 

When getting into the Canyon, drivers and passengers will all appreciate the comfortable seats covered in your choice of soft cloth, CoreTec, or perforated leather. The standard 11.3-inch touchscreen infotainment display is front and center on the dashboard. It allows drivers and the front passenger to take control of everything in the Canyon, from the media being listened to to various settings, navigation information, and, of course, Apple CarPlay or Android Auto functionality. The dashboard also gets unique touches depending on the trim level purchased, and the driver gets a special 11-inch digital gauge cluster, plus an available 6.3-inch Head-Up Display (HUD), so you never have to take your eyes off the road.  

Top Notch Safety 

While the 2025 GMC Canyon is filled with tons of features, technology, unique styling, and comfortable seats, there’s nothing more important than how safe it is for all occupants. Every model comes standard with Canyon Pro Safety, which features Rear Cross Traffic Braking, Blind Zone Steering Assist with Trailering, Rear Park Assist, Forward Collision Alert and Automatic Emergency Braking, Following Distance Indicator, Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, and Intellibeam automatic high beam headlights. The Canyon can further be optioned with HD Surround Vision and Adaptive Cruise Control.

There is no shortage of things that will make buyers fall in love with the GMC Canyon, and these five are just the tip of the iceberg. You should make an appointment with a sales representative at Valley GMC to take a deeper look and a test drive to find out what you love about the Canyon.
