Terrain

With gruff styling reminiscent of GMC’s macho pickups, the Terrain is a compact SUV with a truck-like attitude. From straight on, the boxy mini-ute looks similar to the giant GMC Sierra, but with a rear hatch and adequately sized cargo hold around back instead of a bed. Like many other GMC models, the Terrain is mostly Chevy underneath its chunky sheetmetal, sharing its underlying platform and engine with the Equinox. The Terrain’s interior is a class above the Chevy in terms of appointments, though, and it borrows a number of tech features and interior niceties from the larger Acadia SUV. A new off-road-oriented AT4 variant and a glitzy top-tier Denali model provide options for both trail enthusiasts and valet-frequenters.
