We’ve been waiting for GM to reveal the new 2021 GMC Canyon AT4 for a while now, and that day has finally arrived.
The new Canyon AT4 replaces the Canyon All Terrain, while aiming to deliver capability and various minor updates to the Canyon range. GMC says that the truck is “squarely at premium midsize truck customers who purchase their trucks to venture off-road.”
Standard equipment for the 2021 GMC Canyon AT4 carry over from the Canyon All Terrain, including:
- 31-inch Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac tires fitted to 17-inch aluminum wheels
- An off-road tuned suspension with an Advanced Hill Descent Control System
- Four-wheel drive with an Eaton G80 Rear Automatic Locking Differential
- A transfer case skid plate that aims to deliver additional protection when traveling off the beaten path
Other features include a (slightly) bolder exterior, with a larger grille design, new vertically-positioned lower lamps, red recovery hooks and dark chrome finishes. The interior features some unique details, including model-specific Kalahari stitching and the AT4 logo embroidered on the headrest. Other than that, the rest of the truck seems to be identical to the outgoing Canyon All Terrain.
As GM Authority was first to report, the 2021 GMC Canyon AT4 also foreshadows the minor updates to the Canyon line of midsize pickup trucks. The entire range will get the updated, larger grille, with a few other minor changes – which we will outline later – sprinkled in.
“The new 2021 Canyon AT4 broadens the appeal to midsize truck customers who live an active lifestyle,” said Duncan Aldred, vice president of Global Buick and GMC. “Much like the Sierra AT4 has attracted new customers from outside GMC, the Canyon AT4 will attract outdoor enthusiasts looking for a premium midsize truck to GMC with the capability, technology and refinement they’ve come to expect.”
The introduction of the Canyon AT4 “advances the brand’s commitment to offering premium off-road capable vehicles with impressive styling details,” according to a press release. The truck is also “part of GM’s strategy to introduce an AT4 variant of all GMC models (save for the Savana van) by 2021.
With the refreshed 2020 Acadia as well as the all-new Sierra 1500 and Sierra HD already having AT4 models, the only models in the GMC stable missing the AT4 treatment are the Terrain and Yukon.
The 2021 Canyon AT4 is powered by the naturally-aspirated 3.6L V6 LGZ engine delivering 308 horsepower (230 kW) and 275 pound-feet (373 Nm) of torque. It is mated to GM’s eight-speed automatic transmission. The 2.8L I-4 LWN turbo-diesel Duramax engine is available. It makes 181 horsepower (135.0 kW) and 369 pound-feet of torque (500 Nm) and is mated to GM’s six-speed automatic transmission.
“This is a truck created with outdoor adventurers in mind,” added Aldred. “The Canyon AT4 is a perfect complement to the driver’s other passions and appreciation of the details, whether that’s a mountain bike, a snowboard or their truck.”
The 2021 Canyon AT4 will go on sale later this year. Pricing will be announced closer to production. Production will take place at the GM Wentzville plant in Wentzville, Missouri.

Looks good.
It looks like a nice package. It’s good for people who don’t want to go full out on a ZR2.
I suspect that will change and GMC will “Up The Ante” on the Canyon’s AT4 Package for the 2023 Model Year.
When will people get tired of just appearance package
it looks a tiny bit better than an appearance package. The front bumper looks modified to have a bit better approach angle. It’s like a half step up on a z71 from what I can see.
Finally no air dam to rip off.
Well I saw on another site a photo with the Air Dam still there. They may have taken it off for this photo.
43 fake votes Really !!
This is a Nice truck to take to the UP. But, do I need to use glow plugs for cold starts during the winter.
I really don’t know why they cant put that 5.3 in it and maybe it might have a little power in the off road that I get in and also maybe pull the car hauler Ive got
I’d love to see a V8 (5.3 or 6.2 would be amazing). I think even the Turbo 2.7 would add a little extra low end oomph.
The present model will pull over 7,000 pounds easily now. If you are pulling more than that I would want a larger truck anyways.
They did offer the V8 in the last gen. It was expensive and it sold in very low numbers. The V6 today has more power than the old V8 had and better mpg.
It is expected the 2.7 is coming in 22 for the all new 23.
C8.R,
And why would you even say that ” the present model will pull over 7,000 pounds easily ”
Where is your reality ?
That statement is simply NOT TRUE !!!!
You who preaches REALITY !!!!!!!
Over 7,000 lbs., easily!!!!!!
No way in h3ll does a Canyon pull 7,000 lbs., or like you said, OVER 7,000 lbs. EASILY !!!!
Can you pull 7,000 lbs., yep, you sure can. Can you pull over 7,000 lbs., yep, you sure can.
But you can NOT do either one, EASILY !!!
Just like saying you can pull over 12,000 lbs., EASILY with a 1500, its NOT easily !!
Just like saying you can pull 35,000 lbs., EASILY with a HD, its NOT easily !!
Can you do it, yes, but the REALITY is a,
Canyon is a driving vehicle to haul small stuff and a 3,500 lb. trailer !
1500 is the next step to tow a 5,000 to 7,000 lb. trailer !
2500 is the next step to tow a 7,000 to 15,000 lb. trailer !
———————- EASILY ———————————-
More scott3 reality !!
Have you pulled 7000 pounds with one of these. Though not. I have at a ride and drive event. Diesel will do a little more.
The truth is all trucks become more limited at the upper limits of their capacity. Best to match the correct size to the load being towed. Only an idiot would want to tow the limit of any vehicle.
Actually towing a moderate size car on a trailer is not difficult nor at the limit.
You have pulled 7,000 pounds with a 2021 ?
YES, YES I have pulled 7,000 lbs with a 2019 !
IS THERE A DIFFERENCE ?
And I AGREE with you that ” towing a moderate sized car on a trailer is not difficult, or at the limit !
That’s because the average car trailer is a 5,000 pound trailer so the 3,000 or so car on that trailer is around the 3,500 – 4,500 pound weight !
NOT the 7,000 pound PLUS easily rate you said above !!
Reality by C8.R !
I did it with a 17.
Twin axle open trailers run 16′ trailers will weigh about 1,600lbs, 18′ trailers weigh about 1,800lbs and 20′ trailers weigh about 2,000lbs. There are also lighter options in aluminum or open deck models.
The engine has more than. Enough power. The power is higher up over 3000 RPM but with the extra valves the power is still efficient.
Either way most people towing are not buying mid size truck as a primary towing vehicle.
17 positive votes? Really there is not 17 people here that care. Lol pretty weak dude.
If you are going to run up scores try to make it less obvious. Lol!
C8.R,
Did you say, the engine has more than enough over 3000 RPM to pull over 7,000 lbs. easily ?
NO, No you DID NOT say that !!
If you would have said that I would have agreed with you !
You don’t have to explain how much trailers weigh, I own 7 trailers, from a 3,500 pound single axle, to a 26′ car hauler.
I am saying the ” average 16 foot car trailer” with the ” average ” weight vehicle, is around 4,500 pounds !
NOT over 7,000 lbs !!!!
And even if the ENGINE has enough power, ( while sucking MORE fuel than a V8 ) you said ” the present model will pull it easily ”
AND IT WILL NOT !!!!!! pull it easily !!!!!!!!
And I still don’t know what the h3ll you mean with the ” run up scores ” and 17.
Its obvious that more than 49 people have looked at this article, Guestt has 49 up thumbs and 2 down thumbs.
So out of 51 people you don’t think 17 Canyon owners know this truck will NOT tow OVER 7,000 pounds EASILY !!!
I thought you didn’t read my comments !!
Like I said, your a hoot !
WOW !
Why are you such a drama queen?
Plus one!
I think I can add drama queen to my title now ?
So I am a crazy, drama queen who needs to seek professional help !
I have to win some kind of prize, don’t I !
What do you think C8.R ?
I cant remember now, were we talking about the 2021 Canyon, or peoples opinion of each other ?
Let me know when I can start, if you would like !
lifelongGMowner, my Duramax Canyon is rated to pull 7700 lbs, and it easily pulls more than that. I d i o t.
I guess we will just have to disagree on what your definition of EASILY is !!
You see, my 2020 HD Duramax pulls 7,700 lbs. EASILY !
Here is MY definition of EASILY !
When I can pull load X at the same rate as the AVERAGE traffic, that is EASILY !!
Even with your Duramax, and again its a great truck and leaps above the 3.6.
You will struggle at best off a stop light in traffic, and be in the slow lane while climbing a grade !
And WHY do you have to name call ?
Are all you people on here that name call compensating for something, or what ?
Explain please, I have never called you guys any names, well C8.R is a hoot, but he is not personally a hoot, he is a hoot to interact with, like its fun !
It pulls easily and I have no problems at stoplights LOL. You forget these midsize trucks have the same power if not more as HD trucks did in the 1990’s, and those trucks didn’t have any problem EASILY lugging 7k lbs either. The only reason the tow rating is restricted to 7700lbs is because of GVW and chassis. The motor has nothing to do with it.
Again 2017canyon !
Your definition of easily and mine are different !
And I AGREE with you that the Duramax in these Canyons have the same power as the 1990’s trucks !
BUT this is why THE PEOPLE WHO PULL drive HD trucks TODAY !!
If the 1990’s trucks pulled these type of loads EASILY, we would not have HD trucks TODAY that do !!
OK ——–YOU ——-think the 2017 Duramax Canyon pulls 7,700 pounds easily !
OK——–I do NOT think it is easily, and I DID also pull the same 7,000 pound load with a Duramax in a 2019 as I did with the 3.6, and the Duramax is a better option, in my opinion, however I STILL, in MY OPINION, does NOT pull that load ( easily )
I also understand the GVW of a vehicle, and how the sheer weight, braking, etc., of the towing truck matters.
I have owned 4 HD Duramax’s now from 2005, for this very reason !
So in conclusion, my opinion still is the Canyon does NOT pull and handle and I would not want to drive with over a 7,000 pound every day, day in and day out, easily !
If my business required me having my employees tow 7,000 pounds every day ( easily ) I would NOT buy a Canyon for this job !
Will it tow 7,700 lbs., YES I said YES, But ” I ” don’t think it is easily !
Not running up the score now drama queen? LOL!
I have to add another thing here for some scott3 reality !
Scott3 you of all people here should know, your statement of ( the v6s of today have more power and get better mileage than the old V8s )
Explain the reality here !!!! Share the truth !!!
OK the make up of the single cam V8 only allows so much ” engine flow ” so as the torque of a single cam V8 goes up, the fuel usage goes down !!
And almost at a linear relationship.
Yet the 4 cam 3.6 V6 engine has a torque curve that hits with all 4 valve per cylinder wide open ( you might say ) therefore using hardly any fuel at the low end of the RPM ( as the 3.6 hardly has any low end torque ) , to being a fuel pig at peak torque !!
So when you are driving a single cam V8, and you are at an engine rpm where you need torque, you have it more available, do to the more linear torque curve !!
This is why when all you GM people here preach CRAP of the 3.6 having more torque than the old V8s do, you are both right and wrong !!
Yes the 3.6 V6 has equal HP and torque, if not more, than the old V8s, and when you need zero torque the 3.6 V6 gives you better mileage !!
But you feel the torque curve when driving the vehicle !!
And GM has had a horrible time getting the smaller torque curve to the road !!!
YOU KNOW THIS Scott 3 !!!!! You are a race guy !!!!!
Without the use of the 10 speed, so you can stay in the smaller torque band, the 3.6 V6 DOES NOT FEEL like the old V8s !!!!!!
AGAIN, WHY, because the 3.6 V6 does NOT have a steady torque curve !!!
Ok drama queen. HP is HP and Torque is Torque be it V6 or 8.
The first gen Colorado V8 had less power 300 hp vs the 308 hp V6. It also was slower and lower towing limit at 5500 pounds.
The V6 makes its power at 3000 and higher RP!m but it is made to run there with the 4 cams and variable timing that they can adjust. Cleaner more efficient.
As for torque curve it is flat and steady just as you woul want it to be.
https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&hl=en-us&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=ZewcXsnNFsSAtgW8xrCwAg&q=gm+3.6+torque+curve.&oq=gm+3.6+torque+curve.&gs_l=img.3…6792.7452..7784…1.0..0.162.614.2j3……0….1..gws-wiz-img…….0i8i30.YOO_Ji1BoDQ&ved=0ahUKEwiJlPewzYHnAhVEgK0KHTwjDCYQ4dUDCAY&uact=5#imgrc=83PK8fjn9KI0xM:
C8.R,
I went through all those torque curve charts,
but still did not see any direct comparisons between,
A 5.3 V8 with a 6 speed, an 8 speed, and a 10 speed
A 3.6 with a 6 speed, an 8 speed, and a 10 speed
A 2.0T with a 6 speed, an 8 speed, and a 10 speed
A 2.7T with a 6 speed, an 8 speed, and a 10 speed
At the wheels in the same vehicle, with the fuel usage attached !!
You will LOOSE again here, quit while you are behind !!!
GM has switched everything new to the 10 speed for this very problem !!!!
Why do you go on ?
Your beloved GM has already don it !!
Only the crappy GM vehicles still get the 8 and 9 speed transmissions !!!
Should I list them for you !!
And HP is HP and torque is torque, is a true statement !!!
Yet when talking HP, torque, and fuel usage, of an engine, they are not the same !!
Bore, stroke and RPM come in to play, and O so many more things, flow, compression, fuel volatility.
There is not enough time here to give it all justice.
I wonder, when a customer asks you to increase HP, is that your answer ?
HP is HP, Torque is Torque !
This is why most countries use watts to explain energy !
You and your HP =Torque X RPM divided by 5252 crap, in an engine its a relationship, then add gears, and tires, now you have a vehicle that you FEEL the torque in !!
When is GM going to relies again, like in the past, people buy vehicles on how thy feel, not what you told them on a paper about engine HP !
On top of the last Colorado/Canyon with a 5.3 not being a hot seller, GM has to meet fuel efficiency standards.
I’m going to jump in here for some reality.
If you are using your Canyon to actually tow 7000 lbs., you will get less MPGs than the V8 !
I get better mileage towing 7000 lbs. with my 2020 Denali HD than with my Canyon 3.6.
Again, this is do to the fact that the 3.6 does not have any torque at the fuel savings RPM !
This has allowed GM to rate this vehicle at a high MPG vehicle while also getting high torque at high RPM so the towing capacity is there also !
Maybe the standards need to change to a more realistic number !!
Maybe the automakers should have to give two MPG ratings for a vehicle, one at transmission shift point ( forced driving range ) and one at peak torque !
If the buying public was presented with a MPG chart that plotted MPG with torque, there would be a lot of different purchasing going on !
And I remember the reality is the average customer knows nothing about torque, but if it was on the window sticker and when the test drove the competition, humans are smart enough to relate !
If you think about it, its not much different than the VW diesel deal, only GM has an engine that does it and not the software.
Nope never miss an opportunity to be wrong. LOL! 24 plus vote right!
If you take the time you would realize the torque curve on the 3.6 is just over 4000 at max torque and it holds a flat line which is what you want especially with a multi speed transmission that will keep it there.
The MPG standards are not going to change and if others get in office they will drastically increase. Automakers are not going to go back as it is too expensive to go one way or the other.
My Denali is sitting solid on 20.3 mpg average over 14K miles. This is daily driving year round on secondary roads with no highway driving. That is for a 4550 pound truck crew with 4×4. My old Sonoma with 2wd and extended cab 4.3 got only 19. Our 14 Silverado gets around 16-17 mpg around town.
GM is not going to tool up for a bigger engine when they are clawing for more MPG. You will see the 2.7 Turbo next and it will come with more lower end torque due to the turbo. It will run great in this truck. I ponder it may end the V6 option here as for other than customer preference for 2 more cylinders the Turbo 4 will get better mpg and have more torque in a lower flatter range. Also tuners will love it for the easy additional HP that can be found.
Again, one more time C8.R,
I am NOT advocating for a larger engine here !
I am advocating for a better engine here !
GM has the better engine already in the 2.7T- 10 speed !
And while you are sitting at 20.3 MPG with your Canyon, I am also quite good at 19.9, and I get right at 29 or better driving 55-65 !
BUT IN NO WAY do you get close to that pulling OVER 7,000 pounds ( like you said )
When I am pulling 3000 or so pounds when I have our Ranger on, I get LESS THAN 10 !
And the truck does a great job of keeping the engine around 3000 RPM.
So in conclusion the 2.7T – 10 speed will be the best setup here along with the 2.8TD, and GM knows it and did a while back,
But as ALWAYS with GM, they are too CHEAP, to put this setup in early, as they have all those 3.6 V6 engines in ABSOUTLY EVERYTHING THEY MAKE !!!!
And it IS a GOOD engine NOW !! The 3.6 V6 !!
But just like the GM from the 80’s and 90’s IT IS OLD and NEEDS A NEW !!!
And my favorite line ( you said ) above is:
“If you take the time you would realize the torque curve on the 3.6 is just over 4000 at max torque and it holds a flat line which is what you want especially with a multi speed transmission that will keep it there. ”
And I agree, if you would take the time you would realize THAT IS WHAT I HAVE BEEN SAYING HERE !!
The 6 and * speed transmissions DO NOT keep either the 2.0T, 2.7T, or the 3.6 in the max torque band, and when it does, YOU ARE USING MORE FUEL THAN A V8 !!!!!
Here for you , like in the old days when you would put a 4 barrel carb on a vehicle to get better mileage !
Average driving would only open the ” smaller ” two barrels.
But when you needed it the four barrels were there !!
However if ALL your driving was pulling and you were into the four barrels all the time, your mileage SUCKED, ( literally ), sucked because an engine sucks fuel out of the carb, Ha, Ha.
But in the year 2020 we have turbos and the technology to use them, others have been doing it for years, again one more time, if GM wasn’t so cheap, this would be done !!
Lead at something GM !
O that’s right, this is ” Good Enough ” !!!
The Denali has some changes.
GMC also announced a more polished Denali trim, without providing any photos. The coming pickup adopts a grille with a “more sculpted and layered pattern,” plus five-inch chrome assist steps, and 20-inch Diamond Cut aluminum wheels that we’ll assume come in a different pattern than the current 20-inch Diamond Cut aluminum wheels. The cabin goes upscale with open-pore ash wood trim and aluminum trim, a new Cocoa/Dark Atmosphere color theme, and unique stitching.
The lighter color interior will be very welcomed.
It’s nice and all, but all this and you get 6 year old headlights.
You mean, proven technology.
Yes, I’m joking.
It looks nice !
I hope the Denali also has the nicer seats as the 2021 Sierra Denalis do, or will that also only come with the new one ?
My only hatred to this vehicle, until the update, is the GM 8 speed junk transmission !
There is NO WAY I WOULD EVER buy a GM vehicle with the GM junk 8 speed transmission !!!
With GMs opinion of what is ” normal operation ” and the FACT that GM has NO customer support, again the GM 8 speed junk, is something I wish on no one !!!
I guess it was just to much to ask for a 10 speed here, until the new Canyons hit the road !
GM is just to cheap on not going to the 10 speed as quickly as possible, and the sales will show it !
I guess you just need the new tech to be able to get the new 10 speed transmission !
I cant wait until the Canyon AT4 and Canyon Denali hit the road and off road with the 2.7T and the 10 speed, it will be a GREAT truck, and GM will not be able to keep up selling those either !!
70 fake votes?
Really?
You know they do not make you creditable or stable.
C8.R,
I bet the GM 8 speed junk transmission, net search, has the now 40 fake votes here !
You know how that works, right ?
You can see how many comments and thumbs are on those old GM 8 speed junk transmission articles here, right ?
You do see how many people STILL did NOT and do NOT get the GM 8 speed junk transmission working, like you did when GM replaced your whole transmission as they should do for most who still have troubles, right ?
If you actually spent time reading on the Colorado forum you would note the vast majority of the transmissions have been resolved with the new fluid. In fact the topic that used to be several topics on the front page is not seen very often anymore. Most times if there is a post it is a follow up on how the new fluid resolved the issue.
Mine is running sweet and I could not be happier.
Many that have had continued issues often are dealing with poor dealers that don’t address the converter clutch if it has been glazed over due to not changing the fluid in time. The solution is there but not all dealers are equal. You know CUSTOMER SERVICE!
You need to vote up 38 more pluses here. What is the matter you out of time? Funny how it stopped when I pointed it out LOL!
You are such a fraud.
C8.R,
I spend quit a bit of my time reading on GM truck sites !
And just like your lack of understanding of fake thumbs, or whatever you blame the thumbs on today.
It is the same thing with your lack of understanding with the GM 8 speed junk transmission !
Again, if GM would have replaced EVERY junk GM 8 peed transmission,
———————LIKE THEY DID YOURS ——————————–
There would NOT be an issue here !!
But the GM horrible customer support, is taking the same view as you.
AND AGAIN, quit telling GM $hit that is not true !!!! How do you expect GM to be better then ” Good Enough ” if you and people like you keep telling them lies !
When I read on the truck and others, as the GM junk 8 speed transmission is in ALOT of GM vehicles, I DO see that the fluid HAS worked in SOME, and MAYBE even MOST ! But we are talking ALOT, ALOT, ALOT, of GM junk 8 speed transmissions here !!!
So you take your opinion of fake votes in the middle of the night,( who reads here in the middle of the night to vote, do you know how ridiculous you sound ? ) C8.R can’t figure out why the thumbs voting has slowed down in the middle of the night, yeah that sure proves a lot !
There are ALOT of GM customers who HAVE NOT gotten their GM 8 speed junk transmission working as a transmission should !
And if you and the rest of the GM dealerships and GM customer service reps want to know how a transmission should shift:
———— drive your very own 10 speed ———————
Do you know how ridiculous you GM people are sounding in the marketplace ?
GM is telling the customer that the GM 8 speed junk transmission that shifts like JUNK, is a transmissions ” normal operation ”
While at the SAME time making the smooth as silk 10 speed !
Which is it ? A transmission should shift like the GM 8 speed junk transmission, or the GM smooth as silk 10 speed transmission.
YOU CANT SAY BOTH, they are like night and day !!
Like I said C8.R, you are a hoot !
63 Fake votes again?
You really are sad!
Why no 70 fake votes. Did you not have time to run up the numbers on your delusional post?
You really have no clue and nothing to do in the cold SD winter do you?
Like I said C8.R,
Blind to the GM 8 speed junk transmission troubles !
And you have nothing to say about it other than a GM canned statement
Or calling the customer a liar !!!
When you are wrong and have nothing constructive to add, its to the personal attacks, and for some reason now, something about fake votes !
Its sad really !
But your still a hoot !
You try to make it through the day now , without this bothering you too much – OK !
I’m like Columbo, just one more thing !
C8.R,
Here is what I find most interesting. You have to either be a trainer of the GM customer support reps, or the trainer is just your type of person. Like I have said here before, you always quoting the GM canned statement, and just what your opinion on what to believe is strange and sad to say the least !
For instance, you call people liars who still have troubles with their GM 8 speed junk transmission, after having your entire, GM 8 speed junk transmission replaced ( for what reason again ? you never did say, Ha, Ha, ), but know for some reason want others here to believe the rating system is a lie. Yet at the same time believe I live in SD and the winters hare are cold ? Why would you believe I live in SD where the winters are cold, choose not to believe the thousands of customers who are having troubles with their GM 8 speed junk transmissions, or that the rating system here is now somehow fake ?
Like I have said here before, the world today is like a game of who is the better liar. But for the old GM arrogant boys club and bean counters, like yourself, how and why do you choose who and what you believe ?
Quit telling GM their products are ” Good Enough ” !!
Quit telling GM their 8 speed junk transmission troubles are over !!
For you your fake Denali plastic Canyon, is ” Good Enough ”
For you , now that you had your entire GM 8 speed junk transmission replaced, your GM 8 speed junk transmission is ” Good Enough ”
But for the rest of us, the FAKE Denali, was not ” Good Enough ”
But for those thousands of GM 8 speed junk transmission owners, who did NOT have their entire transmission replaced, the GM 8 speed junk transmission is NOT ” Good Enough ”
And that is again why I think you are a hoot !
Just what you choose to believe !!
And you did see what GM is doing with the Denali now in the Yukon, right !
NOT listening to you and your FAKE plastic Denali ” Good Enough ”
And I also point out that you CAN NOT get the GM 8 speed junk transmission !!
Again why is that ?
You weren’t wrong again were you ?
Your opinions ruined Cadillac, I’m glad SOMEONE stepped in and did not allow you and the arrogant bean counters to also ruin Denali !
Now all that’s left to fix is GMs horrible customer support system !
But a better vehicle out of the gate will lessen the burden there also !
One more time, your a hoot !
I bought a Canyon SLT only because it was available in the coco dune leather interior …I wanted to buy the Denali….however you can’t get it in the coco dune interior last year?? And I am so tired of seeing black interiors in everything….I am glad they will now offer it again with Denali package
I had a choice of a SLT Coco or Denali with more options at the same price. I took the options.
I really like the Coco interior as it looks much more expensive than the jet black.
I can not understand the Denali not having more interior colors than just black.
I would not buy one because I hate black as I have had them and don’t care for black interior. I also can not understand while more expensive trucks do not have the cardinal red option. Another reason I would not buy a more expensive truck.
I believe it was initially because of the vented seats. They put the truck out and only offered the a Jet Black because it sells the most and to be honest GM was not sure how many Denali models they were going to sell.
When the ZR came out with the Denali it was a significant raise in price and I think GM was testing the waters.
They must have moved enough to offer the vented seats in CoCo now.
I wanted the Coco but went for the added options as the Denali was discounted down to the same price as the SLT I was looking at.
I too would like the red too but they just never offer it. I settled for Granite Red I think it is called.

More photos
There are pictures of the new Denali on this link as well
https://www.gmc.com/future-vehicles/2021-canyon
It’s a nice addition.
How can I get an extended cab Canyon with the Denali package or at least SLT upgrade? The are available only on crew cab trucks.
It looks the same with those ugly dated looking headlights. Come on, if an aftermarket small company can make led headlights. Why can’t GM make some new led headlights for this old looking truck. New headlamps would made this look so good.
I am going to suggest that GM just replace the 3.6V6 with a 4.8L aluminum block LT engine with no AFM or Start/Stop.
Thanks 🙏😁
GM should never have stopped producing the 3.8 pushrod V6. It was the best v6 they ever made. It would be a good base engine perhaps. It has legendary reliability and a proven track record, unlike the 3.6 high feature V6.
I’m not sure about the newest generation 3.6, but the older ones had plenty of concerning issues.
