Mid-size trucks are a smart choice for drivers who want maximum capability, peak efficiency, and premium amenities. The 2025 GMC Canyon offers those qualities in addition to an advanced turbocharged engine, enhanced off-road prowess, and a well-appointed interior loaded with modern safety and infotainment technology.
Enhanced Off-Road Prowess
The Canyon is built for smooth performance on the road and enhanced capability beyond the end of the pavement. For example, it has a 2-inch factory-installed lift that gives it more ground clearance while improving approach and departure angles when tackling obstacles. It also has an ultra-wide stance for greater stability on unlevel terrain, as well as a special off-road performance suspension for a smooth, steady ride on any driving surface.
High-Level Mid-Size Truck Efficiency
Mid-size trucks strike a balance between power and efficiency, and the Canyon gets excellent mileage that reduces its cost of operation. With a 21.4-gallon fuel tank, the 2WD Canyon has an estimated fuel efficiency rating of 19 MPG in the city and 23 MPG on the highway. Canyons with 4WD get an estimated 17 MPG under city driving conditions and 21 MPG on the open road.
Turbocharged Power Beneath the Hood
The Canyon’s performance is powered by the TurboMax engine paired with an 8-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission with overdrive, powertrain grade braking, cruise grade braking, and tow/haul mode. The powertrain delivers 310 horsepower and 430 foot-pounds of torque. The Canyon’s base Elevation trim is available in 2WD, but the upscale Denali and off-road-tuned AT4 trims have standard 4WD.
Hard-Working Towing and Payload Capacity
The crew cab of the Canyon can comfortably seat up to five passengers across its front and rear rows, and the 5-foot cargo box can handle up to 1,803 pounds of payload while providing 41.9 cubic feet of cargo volume. The Canyon can also tow loads of up to 7,700 pounds, depending on drivetrain and optional equipment selections.
Superior Safety Systems
Staying safe both on the road and off of it is important, and the Canyon has safety and driver assistance systems that protect its occupants. The standard safety features in the Canyon include six airbags, a forward collision alert, automatic emergency braking, the StabiliTrak electronic stability control system, blind zone steering assist, an HD rear vision camera, lane keep assist with lane departure warning, and rear cross traffic braking.
Advanced Infotainment Technology
Infotainment is a key concern for drivers, and the Canyon has advanced standard infotainment technology such as an 11-inch color driver information center, an 11.3-inch GMC Premium Infotainment System with Google integration, a 6-speaker sound system, Wi-Fi hotspot capability, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity.
The GMC Canyon offers mid-size truck enthusiasts a smart choice, with advanced infotainment and safety features, an efficient turbocharged engine, and impressive off-road capability. Contact Alexander GMC of Simi Valley in Simi Valley, CA, today to schedule a test drive of the Canyon.
