As the seventh and last model year of the nameplate’s second generation the 2024 GMC Terrain will include only a few minor changes and updates from the 2023 GMC Terrain. It is the final model year before the crossover’s third generation debuts in calendar 2024 with a “GMC Professional Grade upgrade” per GM President Mark Reuss.
Now, GM Authority is taking a closer look at the 2024 GMC Terrain, specifically the different paint colors on offer.
Deep Bronze Metallic (GXN)
Downpour Metallic (GXP)
Ebony Twilight Metallic (GB8)
Riptide Metallic (GJV)
Sterling Metallic (GXD)
Summit White (GAZ)
Volcanic Red Tintcoat (GNT)
White Frost Tricoat (G1W)
GM offers eight different exterior paint color options in total for the 2024 GMC Terrain. Four of the paint hues are available across all four of the crossover’s four trim levels, including the SLE, SLT, AT4, and range-topping Denali trims.
The other four paint colors are restricted from certain trims. Downpour Metallic (paint code GXP) is available on all trims except the AT4. Riptide Metallic (paint code GJV) is unavailable on the Denali trim while White Frost Tricoat (paint code G1W) is unavailable on the base SLE. Deep Bronze Metallic (paint code GXN) is on offer exclusively for the Denali.
Summit White (paint code GAZ) is the only exterior tint offered as a no-charge option for all trim levels. Five of the remaining colors are priced at an extra cost of $495, while Volcanic Red Tintcoat (GMT) is $645 extra and White Frost Tricoat (G1W) is priced at $1,095.
Riptide Metallic and Downpour Metallic are new for the 2024 model year, while GM is dropping two Terrain paint colors for 2024, namely the Marine Metallic and Desert Sand Metallic paint options. The table below gives a full breakdown of the 2024 GMC Terrain paint color availability:

GM Authority has also provided a thorough look at 2024 GMC Terrain prices, including the many options available with the model year. Starting prices are lower than equivalent 2023 model-year vehicles for most configurations. The cheapest configuration, a front-wheel-drive Terrain SLE, starts at $30,095, while the most expensive, the all-wheel-drive Denali, starts at $39,995.
As a reminder, the GMC Terrain is motivated by the turbocharged 1.5L I4 LSD gasoline engine, which is rated at 175 horsepower and 203 pound-feet of torque. Power reaches the wheels via the GM nine-speed automatic transmission. As for structure, the GMC Terrain rides on the GM D2 platform.
As exclusively reported by GM Authority, the start of regular production (SORP) for the 2024 GMC Terrain kicked off in May at the GM San Luis Potosà plant in Mexico.
Production of the 2024 GMC Terrain will cease in October of calendar 2024. The online configurator for the model is currently live.

I wished the Denali would come in Riptide Metallic, it’s so much better than the Downpour Metallic.
It’s like car companies are allergic to loud colors. They give you 4 muted colors for every decent one.
gold dust neon purple with mirror cyan undertones. i can see how that would sell………. you can always repaint it! if you are that much into gaudy
Nobody is saying it has to be tasteless, but did you ever hear someone say they were going to buy a 1950s classic but didn’t because of the color? They are well-known for their bold colors. Creams and Cyans sold well. What about pickup trucks of the 1970s? Red and beige two-tones were sold. Rich red interiors were sold on cars in the 1980s. Cars can sell well with louder colors! We do not have to live in an achromatic car world to convince someone else to buy the car when used.
all the colors id ever buy are always on offer. white, black. blue. the 70s are gone. get with the times.
You have your three preferred colors, and others have different tastes. We should be able to cater to all. I don’t believe in getting with the times. We make the times.
your argument would be valid if people agreed with you. the reason you see the color range that you do, is because that is what sells. everything else is fringe. and as you know, it costs the OEMs 5trillion to support a color option so they axe them /s
actually no, we dont make the times. the consumer doesnt make anything. the consumer is fed what they will like and buy. same way in fashion/clothing. i hate to use that as an example but if you watched the devil wears prada, that movie applies here very well too
I like the darker blue and that’s about it.
I like how black cost money …..
There is no excuse whatsoever charging 495.00 for the same identical black paint that is free on the sister Chevy vehicles. I can understand the red and tri-coats and even the bright blue variants but black. Come on!
Exactly. It’s just not GMC, Buick and Cadillac also adds a surcharge. I also don’t get it. Perhaps someone here can explain it.
They figured out how to get a money grab from us poor saps. For me, it is a major turnoff. Part of
the fun in buying a new car is having a choice of color. Charging for every color but white, really?
Just like other poster here: Pretty soon your car will come with a primer……
With the pending strike will the 2023 models increase in price because of little choice available?
