About GMC Canyon

The GMC Canyon is a mid-size pickup truck marketed by GM's GMC brand. It is currently GMC's smallest pickup truck, slotting under the full-size GMC Sierra. The current model was introduced in 2015 and represents the second generation of the Canyon nameplate. It rides on the GMT-31XX platform shared with the Chevy Colorado, as well as the international-market Chevrolet Colorado/S10 and Chevrolet Trailblazer. As of September 2018, the GMC Canyon is offered only in the United States and Canada; it is not offered in the two other markets in which GMC does business - Mexico and the Middle East.

The 2018 GMC Canyon represents the fourth model year of the second-generation Canyon. The vehicle remains highly competitive in its segment, offering two gasoline engines and a diesel motor, which is a segment exclusive. As opposed to its Chevy-badged brother, the Chevy Colorado, the Canyon does not offer an off-road-specific model like the Colorado ZR2. However, the Canyon does offer a luxury-focused Canyon Denali model. Some of the biggest criticisms of the second-gen Canyon include a lack of various desired features wanted by many present and potential customers, including a moonroof, a sliding rear window, and an extreme offroad model.

The 2019 GMC Canyon represents the fifth model year of the second-generation Canyon. The vehicle sees new exterior colors and a new set of bright silver 17-inch wheels on the SLE model. Additionally, the 2019 Canyon gets new set of infotainment systems that represent the third generation of GMC infotainment systems, a second in-cabin microphone for the front passenger, a high-definition Rear Vision Camera on some models, UltraSonic Rear Park Assist, a heated steering wheel on SLT and All Terrain models, and 6-way power driver seat on some models. There's also a rearrangement of USB ports in the front and back.

A midcycle refresh for the 2020 model year is expected to bring revised front and rear styling along with interior and powertrain updates. There's also the expected introduction of the Canyon AT4 to replace the Canyon All Terrain. The GMC Canyon is built at the GM Wentzville factory in Missouri operated by GM USA.

  2. I have an 09 Colorado with a factory 5.3 v8 LT 4×4 with factory 4:10’s with black leather interior. Factory 300hp 325 tq. Homemade intake box and exhaust. Seat of the pants feel, not sure if any gains but it does feel like it… I’ve read an HP tune squeezed 25hp and 27 tq on a truck at 4k lbs

    Just hit 110k miles with NO oil burning. Still carries it’s own with the big boys (usually they see my tail lights). It doesn’t matter which brand. IMO, less weight is my advantage. Those RAM boys get hurt with the 5.7

    I’m on the bandwagon for v8 or the Cadillac twin turbo v6 from the ATS v

    GM would sell a shit load of medium trucks if given the option or LPO to order a Colorado or Canyon TT v6 The market would tip to GMs favor.

    Can you see a Bison with 400 plus HP or an SS version with tuned exhaust on 20’s x 9 low to the ground with that TT v6!

    So pricing would reflect the TT v6 and any drive train and suspension upgrades to handle 430Hp and 400 tq …$$$$$$$

    Now the Carbon feature makes since…

    At this point, if I had to replace my engine, its getting a 6.2 cause I can’t seem to get in a v6 and lose the tq and all the available parts.
