2018 GMC Terrain: All New & Better than Ever

GMC certainly can’t be accused of having bad timing. They have completely redesigned the Terrain and it now sits right in the middle of the hottest segment in the automotive market which is the compact crossover category. The 2018 Terrain has been reduced in length and weight from last year’s model. It’s also got brand new engine options along with more exciting features across all trim levels.

What are the trim levels available on the all-new 2018 GMC Terrain?

You can take your pick from three trim levels on the 2018 Terrain: SLE, SLT, and Denali. GMC continues their tradition of offering premium level interior features on their vehicles with the high-end Denali edition of the 2018 Terrain. Don’t think for one second, however, that the other trims come up short on features. Even the base model SLE comes standard with seven-inch touchscreen system, leather wrapped steering wheel, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. These are premium features that most other automakers make you pay extra for, or make only available on top trim levels of their vehicles.
