Overview

The 2025 GMC Canyon proves that you don’t need a full-size pickup truck to have pickup truck fun. Not only does it offer segment-leading towing capacity, but it also delivers the numerous creature comforts and practical features of its larger brethren. While it’s mechanically akin to the Chevrolet Colorado, the GMC Canyon takes on a sharper, almost dapper look and feel with high-class exterior styling and premium materials that would make lesser pickup trucks blush.

What’s New for 2025?

GMC is committed to constant improvement, which rings true for the 2025 Canyon. ProGrade Trailering system is now standard on the Elevation, AT4, and Denali trims, along with the Canyon Safety Plus package on Elevation and AT4. A new nightfall edition is available for those who want a stand-out model, and many new features are standard or available for the midsize Canyon.

Who’s It For?

That depends on which Canyon trim you choose. The Elevation offers the jack-of-all-trades experience that fits most mid-size pickup truck buyers’ needs. The AT4 and AT4X are for the adventurous individual in search of an equally rugged truck with enhanced off-roading capability. Meanwhile, drivers who want the finer things in a pickup truck will love the Denali and its premium styling and features. 

Real World Performance

While Canyons of old offered multiple engine choices throughout the range, the current model narrows it down to a single, yet solid offering. The 2.7-liter TurboMax packs quite a wallop for an inline 4-cylinder, delivering an impressive 310 horsepower while offering a blistering 430 pound-feet of torque. Whether you’re towing your favorite bass boat, hauling gardening supplies, or tackling the usual everyday commute, the 2025 Canyon offers ample power to get the job done. An 8-speed automatic transmission helps put power down to the pavement. With four selectable drive modes to choose from, you can also control how that power is transformed into motion. The AT4X even offers a special drive mode, Baja Mode, that’s tailor-made for high-speed off-road driving.

Choosing the Off-Road Suspension Package with select trims gives you a 2-inch factory lift. However, the AT4 and AT4X up the ante with a plethora of off-roading enhancements, from special dampers and a more aggressive factory lift to front and rear electronic locking differentials. The 2025 GMC Canyon also gives you awareness of your surroundings with up to 10 available camera views. The underbody camera views will come in handy for your next rock-crawling, trail-blazing adventure.
