The 2021 GMC Terrain is set to debut sometime early this year, dropping in as a facelift for the nameplate’s current second generation. Now, GM Authority has learned that the refreshed Terrain will offer a new head-up display as part of its latest in-cabin technology offerings.
The second generation GMC Terrain was introduced for the 2018 model year, and was not offered with a head-up display. The upcoming 2021 model year refresh marks the first availability of the head-up display feature for the second-gen Terrain.
The feature creates a cool sequence that deploys a clear head-up display panel ahead of the instrument cluster. Unfortunately, there is currently no information with regard to availability and pricing of the feature, but that info is expected to arrive closer to the 2021 Terrain’s debut.
More general information on the 2021 GMC Terrain is also unavailable at this time. However, the upcoming Terrain refresh was previewed with the new Terrain AT4, as seen at the 2020 Chicago Auto Show. We know that the updated Terrain will come with a restyled front end, including a reshaped grille with tab-like sections along the grille’s lower edges. It’s a style we’ve seen previously with the 2019 GMC Sierra and 2020 GMC Acadia, and it works to bring the Terrain more in line with the rest of the GMC stable in terms of aesthetics.
We also know that the 2021 GMC Terrain will introduce new C-shaped LED headlamps, and U-shaped trim under the fog lamps mounted low in the front bumper. In back, we expect reshaped tail lamps, plus quad exhaust tips on a possible high-performance model variant.
Mechanically speaking, the 2021 GMC Terrain will likely offer up the turbocharged 2.0L LSY inline four-cylinder as a replacement for the current turbocharged 2.0L LTG inline four-cylinder.
We’ll have more information on the 2021 GMC Terrain and its new head-up display when the refreshed crossover debuts sometime early this year. Until then, make sure to subscribe to GM Authority for more GMC Terrain news, GMC news, and around-the-clock GM news coverage.

Welcome to the 21st century as HUD (heads-up-display) is a must have feature in all vehicles as it allows the driver to keep their eyes at what is most important which is the road ahead; this feature could save lives and should be made available across the GM fleet.
It’s head-up display, not heads-up display. Welcome to proper naming.
They need to get a bit more than 170 HP for the base 1.5T and 230 for the so called performance variant LSY engine. I would be surprised if they switch over to less powerful LSY seeing how the current 252 HP 2.0T is already certified and outperforms the newer engine but it could be an emissions thing.
Heads up. The Terrain is a hideous design.
I like the looks so far. I have owned several GMC and have zero complaints.
I can’t wait to trade-in my 2016 Terrain V6 3.6 liter for this next year model even with the 3.6 HOTC I get 30 miles per gal and alot more power then ever expected . GMC it’s gonna be like the Holidays again.
dont get your hopes to high i own a 2019 and the auto stop will drive u crazy ,and good luck w the flimsy plastics and the harsh seats and expensive add on s that the versa has standard
I hope that GMC upgrades the instrument cluster on the Denali trim. The rest of the interior looks nicely upscale, but that instrument cluster looks absolutely cheap and an afterthought. The one in the new Acadia Denali looks much better and is even in the Blazer Premier!! If it’s going to be modeled after the Sierra Denali, even that instrument cluster looks better. If the Buick Enspire is debuted soon, then I won’t care since the instrument cluster and infotainment system will be all digital and I’ll buy it instead.
Might this also be found in the new 2021 Equinox, the Chevy brother to the Terrain?
I purchased a 2021 GMC Terrain, there is no HUD?
