Published on Dec 20, 2022 by Dylan Weiher

The 2021 GMC Canyon is a bold and attractive midsize pickup truck with seriously impressive capabilities. Its stunning interior, powerful performance, and incredible affordability make the Canyon one of this year’s most popular trucks. Buyers will be more than satisfied with the choices available to suit both their budget and their lifestyle, as the base model starts at just $27,000 and the premium Denali trim starts at $42,000.

6 STANDOUT FEATURES OF THE 2021 GMC CANYON

1. WIDE RANGE OF AVAILABLE ENGINE

The 2021 Canyon comes equipped with a 2.5-liter, 4-cylinder engine that generates 200 horsepower and achieves excellent fuel economy for a truck of this size. The optional V6 engine has cylinder deactivation, designed to reduce fuel consumption while still delivering a massive 308 horsepower. The available diesel engine cranks out a remarkable 369 lb-ft of torque and offers an increased towing capacity.

2. TOWING CAPACITIES

Gas-powered and diesel-powered engines provide different towing capacities. The gas-powered V6 has a large towing capacity of up to 6,000 pounds, while the Duramax diesel-powered engine is capable of towing a stunning 7,700 pounds.

3.VARIOUS CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

A range of configurations and trim levels are available with the 2021 Canyon to suit a variety of driver’s needs. Buyers can choose from a short box or long box, as well as a crew cab or extended cab. Four-wheel drive is also an available option, increasing this truck’s traction and maneuverability.

4. ALL-TERRAIN AT4 MODEL

First impressions matter, and the AT4 certainly exudes confidence and capability. With a body style to match its performance, this trim level is all about handling every type of terrain. The AT4 is equipped with 31-inch Goodyear Wrangler tires with an underbody skid plate and an exclusive all-terrain suspension system.

Its limited-slip rear differential provides the four-wheel-drive system with even more traction regardless of what kind of rough surfaces it encounters.

5. SOLID FUEL ECONOMY

When the 2021 Canyon is powered by a 4-cylinder engine, drivers can expect to achieve an EPA estimated 19 mpg city and 25 mpg highway. The V6 engine will deliver an EPA estimated 18 mpg city and 25 mpg highway.

Trucks equipped with the available all-wheel drive systems can expect to receive similar fuel ratings. The Diesel engine is the highest-performing option, delivering a fuel efficiency rating of an EPA estimated 28 mpg highway.

6. CONVENIENT CARGO BED FEATURES

A truck’s cargo bed is easily its most useful feature, aside from its towing capacity. GMC has worked hard to make the Canyon’s truck-bed particularly convenient to load and unload with its EZ Lift-and-Lower tailgate. This tailgate can also be locked and unlocked with your key fob, and the bumper features integrated steps for particularly easy access.
