Used GMC Terrain for Sale

When the GMC Terrain was introduced for its first year of production in 2010, it was loosely based on the design of the popular Chevrolet Equinox. Throughout this initial generation of production, there were some changes across model years. For example, in 2013, the GMC Terrain saw the introduction of the Denali trim, which was equipped with additional options, such as blind-spot monitoring and cross-traffic detection.

For the 2014 model year, there were some minor changes and updates, including a new Chrome package and additional wheel options. Aside from this, the 2014 Terrain is mostly unchanged.

For the 2015 model year, the GMC Terrain received a standard 4GWi-Fihotspot, which became a major selling point and was carried on into all future model years as well.

More significant changes came along for the 2016 model year, including a change in feature/equipment availability. For example, whereas lane-departure warning used to only be available in the Denali trim, it was made available in both the SLE-2 and SLT trims for this model year. The exterior styling of the GMC Terrain 2016 also saw a major update.

Aside from new standard 18-inch wheels and an additional package option (the Nightfall Appearance Package), the 2017 GMC Terrain is mostly unchanged when compared to the 2016 model year.

The GMC Terrain is now in its second generation of production, starting with the GMC Terrain 2018. For this model year, it was completely redesigned with today's consumer in mind. Specifically, GMC decided to do away with the SLE-1 and SLE-2 trims, combining them into one simplified SLE trim instead. This generation of GMC Terrain is also three inches shorter and about 400 pounds lighter than that of previous GMC Terrain models; impressively, however, it doesn't lose more than an inch of interior space. It also has an available engine upgrade—a GMC Terrain diesel at 1.6 liters.
