The 2022 GMC Canyon is the eighth model year for the latest second-generation pickup nameplate, introducing only a few small updates and changes prior to the debut of the all-new third generation for the 2023 model year. Now, GM Authority has learned that 2022 GMC Canyon production will be extended by an additional two months.
Production of the 2022 GMC Canyon was originally slated to end in October of this year, with orders for the 2022 model year halted in July. Now, however, sources familiar with the matter indicate that production of the 2022 GMC Canyon will be extended by two months. As such, the final production date will be December 23rd, with the last order window set for the week of October 20th.
Under the hood, the 2022 GMC Canyon is currently only available with the naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 LGZ gasoline engine, which is rated at 308 horsepower at 6,800 rpm and 275 pound-feet of torque. Although the 2022 GMC Canyon was previously available with two other engine options, including the naturally aspirated 2.5L I4 LCV gasoline engine and 2.8L I4 LWN turbodiesel Duramax engine, both these engines are no longer available for the pickup.
As GM Authority covered previously, the 2022 GMC Canyon has been unavailable to order with the 2.5L I4 LCV gasoline engine since mid-November of last year, while the last 2022 GMC Canyon built with the 2.8L I4 LWN diesel engine rolled off the assembly line on July 4th.
Under the skin, the 2022 GMC Canyon rides on the GM 31XX platform. Production takes place at the GM Wentzville plant in Missouri.
Going forward, the 2023 GMC Canyon will introduce a completely overhauled third generation. The only powertrain offered will be the turbocharged 2.7L I4 L3B gasoline engine, which can also be found under the hood of the refreshed 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 and refreshed 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500, where it’s rated at 310 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 430 pound-feet of torque at 1,500 rpm.

The Colorado & Canyon is a perfect platform for a hybrid, preferably a non plug in one. GMC needs to get the led out and beat Toyota Tacoma to market with it !!!
Why not plug in as well !
Have a question for anyone who might know. If I have to travel 400 miles on a trip and, the all-electric vehicle has a range of
say 200 miles before a charge/recharge will, I be able to go the 200 miles at a speed of 75mph or not? 2: How long do I have to
wait for the (THING) to recharge to travel the last 200 miles using a fast charge station? My thought is the EV’s might not be up
to the task yet!. What Say You?
Here are the facts. It takes 64 hours to charge a F 150 Ford Lightning on a 110 volt charge. A class 2 charger which is 220 volt needs to be installed in your home takes 14 to 16 hrs, and costs over 5 grand. A Class 3 charger which you use on the road takes around 45 minutes. The cost of the fast charge is about the same as gas. Getting gas for your car if there is no line takes about 10 minutes. Also you don’t have to search for a gas station as you do for a charging station. To me it seems like where going backward. Also consider that road trip to Florida in an EV. Yuk!
Class 2 charger five grand? It cost me around $1200, and got about $800 back as state tax credit.
My son purchased a green lightning class 2 charger which is one of the best. The price was $3495. And the installation came out to $4650. Guess it goes by the quality you want to buy, and the amount of cars you want to charge at one time.
