Tech and Connectivity That Keep You Plugged In

An 11.3-inch diagonal infotainment screen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto comes standard on every Canyon trim. That big display makes it easy to pull up directions, queue up a playlist, or take a hands-free call while you’re on the road. You can also track real-time off-road performance data on the center touchscreen, and the Canyon features multiple screens you can set up to show whatever info matters most to you.

The Denali adds a 6.3-inch multicolor head-up display and a seven-speaker Bose premium audio system, plus dual-zone automatic climate control so both driver and passenger stay comfortable. Up to 10 available camera views help you maneuver a trailer with confidence and keep an eye on tight spaces. Browse our Canyon inventory online to see which trim has the tech you want.

Safety You Can Count On

The Canyon Pro Safety Suite is standard on every trim and includes Automatic Emergency Braking, a Following Distance Indicator, Forward Collision Alert, Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking, IntelliBeam headlamps, and Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning. That full package of driver-assist features comes at no extra cost, keeping you and your passengers safer on every drive.

The Canyon Denali also offers Rear Pedestrian Alert and a Safety Alert Seat to help you stay aware of your surroundings. Available options on upper trims include adaptive cruise control, a 360-degree HD surround vision camera system, and rear cross traffic braking. If safety is a top concern, the GMC Canyon gives you a strong set of features right out of the box.

Off-Road Ready from the Factory

Every Canyon comes with a factory lift and ultra-wide stance, which means even the Elevation trim is ready to handle gravel roads and rough terrain. The AT4 comes standard with four-wheel drive, an automatic locking rear differential, and a two-speed transfer case, plus an off-road tuned suspension and factory 2-inch lift for extra ground clearance. It also includes hill descent control for steep grades.

The AT4X goes even further with Multimatic DSSV dampers, front and rear electronic locking differentials, a transfer case shield, and rocker protectors that complement its three-inch suspension lift and wider track. That setup gives the AT4X 10.7 inches of ground clearance. For weekend warriors who like to hit trails around central Indiana, the Canyon AT4X is a serious off-road machine.

Frequently Asked Questions About the GMC Canyon

How much can the Canyon tow?

The Elevation, AT4, and Denali can tow up to 7,700 lbs, while the AT4X tows up to 6,000 lbs. The AT4X’s lower towing number is due to its added off-road hardware, but 6,000 lbs is still plenty for most mid-size trailers and small boats.

What engine does the Canyon use?

Every Canyon is powered by a 2.7-liter turbocharged inline-4 rated at 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. There’s no need to pick an engine option because every trim gets the same strong powertrain.

Does the Canyon come with four-wheel drive?

A 4WD system is optional on the entry-level Elevation trim, and all other trims receive 4WD as standard equipment. So if you need all-weather traction for Indiana winters, 4WD is easy to get no matter which Canyon you choose.

What makes the AT4X different from the AT4?

The AT4X takes the AT4’s off-road gear and adds Multimatic DSSV dampers, front and rear electronic locking differentials, mud-terrain tires, and an exclusive Baja drive mode. It also gets a 3-inch factory lift with 10.7 inches of ground clearance, compared to the AT4’s 2-inch lift. Think of the AT4X as the Canyon built for serious trail riding.
