2025 GMC Terrain

The well-equipped 2025 GMC Terrain Elevation emphasizes style and functionality. Its truck-like design language includes a large grille with integrated LED headlamps and fog lights. LED taillamps complete the modern lighting signature. A striking two-tone roof option, available in black or gray, and 19-inch high gloss black aluminum wheels give the model a strong presence. A hands-free liftgate adds convenience for everyday utility. With an overall length of 181 inches, width of 74.5 inches, and height of 66.2 inches, the Terrain maintains compact dimensions while maximizing interior space. The 107.5-inch wheelbase provides stable handling characteristics, while 8.1 inches of ground clearance allows for confident navigation of various road conditions.

GMC equips the Terrain Elevation with a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. It generates 175 horsepower at 5,800 rpm and 203 pound-feet of torque at 2,000 rpm, providing responsive acceleration for daily driving needs. The front-wheel-drive model features a smooth-shifting continuously variable transmission, while the all-wheel-drive version uses an eight-speed automatic transmission to provide precise gear changes and improved control in varying conditions.

Capability depends on the drivetrain configurations. The front-wheel-drive SUV is rated to tow up to 800 pounds, and the all-wheel-drive version handles up to 1,500 pounds. A 4,630-pound gross weight rating provides a substantial payload capacity of 1,184 pounds. The vehicle's 3,446-pound curb weight contributes to agile handling. A tight 37.1-foot turning circle enables easy maneuverability in urban environments, while 8.1 inches of ground clearance supports confident handling across various road surfaces.

The central command center is the 15-inch diagonal premium GMC infotainment system, complemented by an 11-inch driver information center that provides clear vehicle data. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility ensure seamless smartphone integration. The Terrain offers substantial storage flexibility with 29.8 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row and 63.5 cubic feet with the rear seats folded. The 60/40-split folding rear seats adapt to various cargo and passenger needs. Premium cloth heated front seats and a heated steering wheel provide comfort in cold weather, and the optional panoramic sunroof fills the cabin with natural light.

The Terrain Elevation offers more than 15 standard safety and driver assistance features, such as enhanced automatic emergency braking, intersection automatic emergency braking, enhanced lane-keep assist, and side bicyclist alert to improve awareness in urban environments. Blind zone steering assist and rear cross-traffic braking help prevent accidents during parking maneuvers. Other technologies include reverse automatic braking, a Safety Alert Seat that uses haptic feedback, and occupant presence detection. An HD Surround Vision system with up to eight camera views provides clear visibility during low-speed maneuvers. Pedestrian and cyclist detection, adaptive cruise control, and blind-spot monitoring round out the extensive safety suite.
