The GMC Terrain is one of the brand’s most important crossovers and it’s getting a facelift for 2022. Looking instantly recognizable, the 2022 Terrain features a larger grille that is flanked by restyled LED headlights. Further below, we can see a lightly modified front bumper with less chrome trim. Additional changes are limited, but the facelifted crossover gains new LED taillights and a revised color palette that includes four new options. The model has also been equipped with restyled 18- and 19-inch alloy wheels. The popular Denali and Elevation Edition return, and they’re being joined by an all-new AT4 variant. GMC didn’t say much about the latter, but it features a rugged exterior with plastic body cladding, a front skid plate and black wheels wrapped in meatier tires. We can also see a unique grille and plenty of AT4 badging. Interior changes are minor, but buyers will find updated trim and upholstery as well as wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Other updates include a n...

As expected, an  all-new GMC Terrain  has been unveiled at the  Detroit Auto Show  ready for the 2018 model year. The Terrain has been largely untouched since its 2009 introduction and General Motors has ensured it received a thorough overhaul including an interesting new design, two different transmissions and a selection of new engines. When it hits the market, consumers will get the choice of either a 1.6-liter turbo-diesel, a 1.5-liter turbocharged petrol or a 2.0-liter turbocharged petrol all of which are mated exclusively to one of the two new nine-speed gearboxes. Additionally, it is now smaller than ever before and now targets the likes of the Mazda CX-5 and Toyota RAV4. The compact 1.5-liter petrol pumps out 170 hp and 203 lb-ft (275 Nm) of torque and features continuously variable valve timing, stop/start technology and direct injection. As for the 2.0-liter, it has 252 hp and 260 lb-ft (353 Nm), ninety per cent of which is available from 2,000 rpm to 5,...

These teaser photos are our first official look at the next generation of GMC’s Terrain crossover, which were released ahead of a world premiere at the  2017 Detroit auto show on Monday, January 9 . Just as GM did earlier with the Terrain’s larger cousin,  the 2018 Chevy Traverse  that will be joining it in Detroit next week, GMC’s teaser photo shows a silhouette of the crossover’s profile, in which we see a floating roof. Granted, we’ll have to wait for the full release before reaching any conclusions, but from this angle, you can’t deny the similarities with the  latest Nissan Murano’s roofline .  GMC also released a second picture depicting the 2018 Terrain’s exhaust pipe, with the self-explanatory note, “everything will be turbocharged”.  For details, look no further than the Terrain’s corporate twin,  the new 2018 Chevy Equinox , with the two crossovers sharing a platform derived from the latest Chevrolet Cruze.  As such, the Terrain shoul...

General Motors is preparing to unveil revamped versions of the Chevrolet  Traverse  and GMC Terrain at the Detroit Auto Show 2017 in January. The  Terrain  has been in production since 2009 with very few model year changes and it's the same story with the Traverse, not updated significantly since 2009. However, given the ever-growing demand for SUVs and crossovers, GM thinks now is the time to breath new life into them. Although a GM spokesman declined to comment on  The Wall Street Journal   report, insiders insist the updated models are edging towards their joint debuts and that the company will begin production of both next year in time for the 2018 model year. It is thought that the  new Traverse  will share its platfrom with the 2017 GMC Arcadia meaning it will be significantly lighter than the outgoing model.
