Used GMC Terrain SLT for Sale

A five-passenger crossover like the GMC Terrain is a practical choice if you're looking for a small, yet versatile vehicle with built in utility. And when it comes to trim options on the GMC Terrain, the SLT is an appealing choice if you want to enjoy some upgrades and extra conveniences. In fact, until the premium Denali trim was released in 2013, the SLT was this model's range-topping model during its first generation of production (2010-2017). 

During this time, the Terrain SLT was equipped with a standard 2.4L four-cylinder engine at 182 hp, though a 3.0L V6 engine at 264 hp was optional when this model was sold new through the 2012 model year. Beginning in 2013, a 3.6L V6 engine at 301 hp replaced the existing 3.0L V6 as an available option on new models. On all first-generation SLT models, you'll also enjoy 31.6 cubic feet of dedicated cargo space behind the second row, with split-folding rear seats that can extend storage space up to 63.7 cubic feet when needed.

By the Terrain's second generation (2018-2020), a turbocharged 1.5L four-cylinder engine at 170 hp became standard on the SLT trim, though a couple other turbocharged engines were optional when this model was first sold. This includes an even more powerful 2.0L four-cylinder turbo at 252 hp and a 1.6L turbo-diesel at 137 hp.

No matter which model year Terrain SLT you're looking at, front-wheel drive was standard when these crossovers were sold new—but all-wheel drive was optional, so you may be able to find AWD in a used model as you shop if this is important to you. With its capable engine offerings and well-appointed cabin, a used GMC Terrain SLT can be a great choice for your next crossover SUV.
