2023 GMC Terrain Gets New Volcanic Red Tintcoat Color: First Look

The 2023 GMC Terrain adds three new exterior colors to its palette: Deep Bronze Metallic, Sterling Metallic, and Volcanic Red Tintcoat. Here’s our first look at the new Red hue.

Assigned RPO code GNT and touch-up paint code WA-170H, Volcanic Red Tintcoat is one of eight exterior colors offered on the compact crossover, which include:

  • White Frost Tricoat
  • Summit White
  • Ebony Twilight Metallic
  • Marine Metallic
  • Desert Sand Metallic
  • Deep Bronze Metallic (new for 2023)
  • Sterling Metallic (new for 2023)
  • Volcanic Red Tintcoat (new for 2023)

The Volcanic Red Tintcoat color is an extra-cost option that adds an additional $645 and is available on all trim levels, but can only be combined with these two interior colorways:

  • Jet Black
  • Medium Ash Gray/Jet Black

For reference, here are the three available interior colorways offered on the 2023 Terrain:

  • Jet Black (all trims)
  • Medium Ash Gray/Jet Black (SLE and SLT only)
  • Light Platinum/Dark Galvanized (Denali only)

The 2023 GMC Terrain introduces a few critical changes and updates as compared to the fully refreshed 2022 GMC Terrain. Some of the headlining updates include a new engine, which is the new turbocharged 1.5L I4 LSD gasoline engine, along with an e-boost braking system. The changes were accompanied by a price increase.

Like all units of the second-generation Terrain, the 2023 Terrain rides on the GM D2 platform. The LSD engine, the only powertrain offered in the vehicle, is rated at 175 horsepower and 203 pound-feet of torque. It’s paired with the GM nine-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel-drive is standard, with all-wheel-drive optional on SLE and SLT trim levels and standard on AT4 and Denali.

Production for the 2023 Terrain commenced at the GM San Luis Potosí plant in Mexico on August 22nd, 2022. The online configurator tool is now live for the 2023 Terrain.

  1. Nice colour choice but would be perfect if were to bring back the 2.0 l engine or some sort of a hybrid equivalent then I would think of purchasing one the 1.5 is a little under powered in my personal opinion and hopefully it won’t start burning oil at 70 k pus like some of the important s u v
