General Rating:

The average size Canyon is basically a scaled back GMC Sierra, with strikingly comparable style and plentiful capacity. It's accessible with General Motors' restrictive diesel inline-four that is fuel productive and can tow up to 7700 pounds. Similarly as with its corporate cousin, the Chevy Colorado, the Canyon has two taxicab and load bed styles that match with a few powertrain decisions. The base 200-hp inline-four has a standard six-speed manual, the 308-hp V-6 is exceedingly snappy, and the smaller than normal Duramax diesel makes 369 lb-ft of torque. The famous Denali demonstrate spruces up the truck with chrome cladding, greater wheels, and better inside materials. Its infotainment framework is incredible; sadly, the Canyon is bamboozled by its insignificant dynamic wellbeing choices. Notwithstanding, the exceptionally talented Canyon openings close to the highest point of its class—just the 10Best-winning Honda Ridgeline outperforms it.

What's New for 2018?

For 2018, the Canyon gets minor changes. A washer-liquid level sensor is presently standard on all models. Warmed outside mirrors and what General Motors calls Active Tow are presently accessible. The towing framework enables the driver to adjust the pickup when turning around to attach a trailer; it's standard on the V-6 and diesel models however not accessible with the inline-four.

Cosmetically unaltered for 2017, the Canyon picked up an updated V-6 that additional 3 pull and 6 lb-ft of torque to the 2016 model; the motor was matched with another eight-speed programmed. Efficiency was for all intents and purposes unaltered notwithstanding the expansion of chamber deactivation, despite the fact that the V-6 demonstrated fundamentally speedier in our testing. Aficionados of chrome 20-inch haggles familiar luxuries, celebrate! The Canyon included GMC's superior Denali trim, and another All Terrain X bundle that obliges rough terrain drivers. Likewise included 2017 was a Nightfall Edition appearance bundle, restrictive Denali paint hues, and GM's standard Teen Driver security highlight.

Trims and Options We'd Choose

Medium size pickups can undoubtedly approach full-measure costs. For the best adjust of blast and buck, we like the Canyon SLE and its sprinkling of infotainment redesigns and accommodation highlights. Pick the group taxicab/short-box display, and multiparty street outings will really be conceivable while looking after mobility. Evaluating begins at $36,480 when outfitted with selectable all-wheel drive and the intense V-6 motor—the four-barrel is underpowered and scarcely more productive.
