The GMC Canyon is powered by a 2.7L turbocharged four-cylinder engine mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission with 310 horsepower. The 2023 Canyon is available in four-wheel drive with four trims Elevation, AT4, AT4X and Danali while the 4x2 model is only available in the Elevation trim.
Two-wheel drive Canyons are the most efficient powertrains and are capable of 23 highway mpg. When properly equipped, Canyons have a towing capacity of 7,700 pounds. The 2023 Canyon is only available as a crew cab with a 5 foot box.
Base Elevation Canyons are adequately equipped with standard features that include 4-wheel antilock disc brakes, 18-inch aluminum wheels, an 11.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Bluetooth and Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, 3 USB ports and 6-way manual driver seat adjustment.
AT4 models are more off-road focused and include an automatic locking rear differential, hill descent controls, integrated bed storage, an easy-lift and lower tailgate, LED headlights, dual-zone climate control, and off-road low speed cruise control.
Moving up to the AT4X adds a driver selectable locking rear differential, premium shocks, 4 skid plates, a spray-in bed liner, heated front seats, wireless device charging, a head-up display, and rear parking sensors.
The Denali trim sits at the top of the lineup and features side steps, chrome accents, heated side mirrors, LED taillights, 20-inch alloy wheels, ventilated front seats, a 10-way power driver seat, leather upholstery, a 7-speaker sound system, adaptive cruise control, 4 USB ports, an 11-inch digital gauge display, a heated steering wheel and surround view cameras.
Like most modern vehicles, safety is addressed by a combination of airbags and electronic systems designed to help prevent an accident. The Canyon comes with a rearview camera, anti-lock brakes, traction control and stability control, forward collision alert, a lane-departure warning system as standard. Features such as rear collision mitigation and blind spot warning are optional on the elevation trim and standard on the AT4X and Denali trims.
