Overview

Written by automotive expert Dan Frio

1/7/2026

The 2026 GMC Canyon offers more style and capability than the typical midsize pickup. Mechanically identical to the Chevrolet Colorado, the Canyon differs from its corporate twin with standard off-road hardware, LED headlights and a classier cabin, while its 310-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder and 7,700-pound towing capacity top the capabilities of its competitors' base models. The Canyon's single cab configuration, bed length and lofty price might dissuade some buyers, but otherwise it's one of the best in this class.

Edmunds spotlight: Built more for terrain, not toil

With its lifted suspension, knobby tires and optional four-wheel drive, the Canyon comes out of the box ready to tackle tough terrain. It gets even more capable in midlevel AT4 trim with standard four-wheel drive and a two-speed transfer case, and optional upgrades like extra suspension lift, skid plates and beadlock tires make it masterful off pavement. It's a key difference from its Colorado counterpart, which starts life as a durable workhorse before offering its own off-road hardware farther up the trim ladder. The other key difference is price. The Canyon costs about 20% more than the Chevy, even though both trucks share similar tech and interior features. And at more than $50K for the top-trim Denali, the Canyon edges into the highly competitive full-size truck territory.

Competitors to consider

It's a great time to be a midsize truck buyer. The GMC Canyon has plenty to offer, including its class-leading towing capability, but its rivals also make compelling cases. The Ford Ranger isn't as polished, but it can tow nearly as much. The Toyota Tacoma and Jeep Gladiator are both exceptional off-road operators. The Nissan Frontier offers more bed and cab configurations and a V6 with the same power for an attractive price. And if you can trade capability for on-road comfort, the Honda Ridgeline remains one of the most refined light trucks on the road.

Edmunds Expert Rating

edmunds TESTED

Driven, tested, rated by automotive expert Reese Counts

Good

6.3

out of 10

We drove the 2026 GMC Canyon on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.

Driving experience

7.6/10

How does the GMC Canyon drive? The Canyon is one of the better-driving pickups on the road. The turbocharged four-cylinder engine is strong, though its power was somewhat masked by the AT4X model we tested. The extra weight from the AT4X's upgraded suspension, wheels and tires can make the Canyon feel a bit sluggish. Our truck accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in 8.2 seconds. Expect something closer to the higher end of 6 seconds for a regular Canyon. Off-road, the more capable Canyon trims (such as the AT4X) can take on rocky trails and obstacles with little trouble.

Ride comfort in the Canyon is quite good for a pickup. It's not stiff, but it doesn't feel overly soft either. The Canyon soaks up bumps well and doesn't get rocked by big potholes or uneven roads. AT4X models with the upgraded suspension actually ride even better, with a smooth, composed ride both on city streets and on the highway.

The Canyon is available with a wide array of driver aids, including adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assistance, blind-spot warning and a plethora of camera angles (including an available underbody camera for off-roading). The systems worked well during our testing.

Comfort

6.2/10

How comfortable is the GMC Canyon? Midsize trucks aren't as luxurious or spacious as their full-size brethren, and the Canyon is no exception. The seats are a bit lackluster compared to rivals, with less thigh support than we'd like. The seat bottoms are quite flat in both rows, though the padding is cushy. There's a decent amount of room inside — certainly more so than the previous-generation Canyon — but rear passengers still don't have a ton of space to spread out.

The doors open wide, but the lack of a grab handle on the driver's side makes getting in and out rather difficult. This is especially true if you spec one of the off-road versions with big tires that raise the ride height.

As in nearly every car from General Motors, the Canyon's climate control system is among the best you'll find in any car around. The air conditioning blows cold, and the heated seats do a great job of keeping your behind and back toasty. We also appreciate that all the climate controls are physical, with real knobs and buttons for every setting. The air vents are easy to aim, too, and we appreciate that GMC offers rear passengers their own air vents. We found the Canyon to be pretty quiet on the street too.

In-cabin tech

8.4/10

How’s the tech? GMC offers some of the best in-car tech you'll find in any pickup on the road today. Highlights include standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. There's a wireless charging pad too.

The infotainment and navigation systems are Google-based. If you sign in with a Google account, things like contacts, saved addresses and your calendar can sync with the car. It's particularly useful if you often use Google Maps for directions. The voice control system understands commands well, and it can do everything from adjust the climate to answer questions from the web. Great stuff.

Buying Tips for the 2026 GMC Canyon for January

Looking to purchase the 2026 GMC Canyon? Here's how to navigate the buying and negotiating process with ease.

Buyers of the GMC Canyon enjoy paying around 5% less than the sticker price, with average savings of approximately $2,500 across trims.
For specific groups like military members and first responders, there's a $500 customer cash offer available.
This model offers a special APR of 4.4% for 36 months, which is 2.1% below the market rate, saving you money on financing.
The Elevation trim has the largest new inventory, enhancing your negotiation leverage, but it spends 72 days on the lot, suggesting some room to negotiate.
Leasing the Canyon is an option, with payments starting around $520 per month with $4,274 due at signing.
For those considering used, the lowest displayed dealer price starts at $40,995, with the Elevation trim having more used inventory available.
Used models of the Denali trim are selling fast, spending only 8 days on the lot, hence there's less room for negotiation.

Storage & cargo

3/10

How’s storage and cargo? The Canyon only offers a single Canyon configuration: crew cab with a 5-foot bed. The bed is wide and easy to load. The tall sides do create more space but also make it more difficult to reach into the bed from the side.

Storage inside the cabin isn't quite as good as in the Canyon's rivals. There are fewer bins and pockets, making it a bit less usable than the Toyota Tacoma and Ford Ranger. The multi-tiered door storage — for instance — sounds amazing on paper, but the lack of vertical room means each tray is cramped. The storage bin under the rear seats is handy but small and is usually occupied by a vehicle jack.

Value

6/10

Is the GMC Canyon a good value? While it may not come right out and say it, GMC wants to position the Canyon as a bit more of a premium offering than the average midsize pickup truck. As such, it commands a base price that's a few thousand dollars higher than rivals. You can get a nearly identical truck from Chevrolet for slightly less money. Fit and finish is solid, with no noticeable squeaks or rattles from anywhere in the truck, but we don't think the interior is really any more premium than what you'll find elsewhere.

The Canyon comes with a three-year/36,000-mile basic warranty and a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. Notably, GMC also includes five years or 60,000 miles of roadside assistance and a year of free maintenance.

Towing & hauling

10/10

How is the towing and hauling? At 7,700 pounds, the Canyon officially takes the W in this class. No truck offers as much capacity, and there's an in-vehicle trailering app that tracks things like your trailer's mileage, gives you a towing checklist, and can even diagnose your trailer's electrical issues.

If you're filling the bed, the Canyon's 1,640 pounds is the second-highest payload rating in this class after the Ford Ranger. There are eight tie-down points and a standard household 240-volt outlet. There's also a handy storage compartment built into the tailgate that provides usable extra storage while hauling stuff.

Continue reading Edmunds Expert Rating below

MPG

3/10

How’s the fuel economy? The EPA estimates the Canyon will get between 16 mpg and 20 mpg in combined city/highway driving depending on the configuration. The more capable off-road, the worse the fuel economy rating. Other midsize trucks are capable of slightly better mpg.

X factor

7/10

Given their more compact dimensions, midsize trucks are usually more fun to drive than their full-size counterparts, especially off-road. The Canyon is plenty capable when the going gets rough, especially in AT4 and AT4X spec. Still, the Canyon's rivals are likely to keep up given just how strong this segment of trucks is. On the street, it's a little better to drive than most other pickups, but not so much that we'd call it fun.

GMC did well to differentiate the Canyon's styling from the Chevy Colorado. Both trucks are handsome and tough but not as in-your-face as a chromed-out full-size pickup. The Canyon is also a much rarer sight on the road than the Toyota Tacoma. If you want to be a little different, the Canyon might be the way to go.

2026 GMC Canyon trim level differences

The 2026 GMC Canyon comes in Elevation, AT4, AT4X and Denali trim levels. Every Canyon has a turbocharged 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine (310 horsepower, 430 lb-ft) and an eight-speed automatic transmission. With the Elevation trim level, two-wheel drive is standard and four-wheel drive is optional. The AT4 and Denali include four-wheel drive as standard. Read on to discover the Canyon's most significant features. Compare the 2026 GMC Canyon trim levels in-depth.

Which Canyon trim does Edmunds recommend?

Even if you don't need its extra off-road capability, we think the AT4 offers the best blend of value, style and capability. Standard four-wheel drive, a locking rear differential and rugged style give you options if you ever do venture off the highway. The AT4 also adds appealing amenities such as heated front seats, a power-adjustable driver's seat and a sliding rear window. The AT4's additional options include leather upholstery, ventilated seats, and an upgraded Bose sound system.

Great looks, lacks some pracitcallity

Chris I, 01/14/2025

2025 GMC Canyon Denali 4dr Crew Cab 4WD SB (2.7L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

I just bought a 2025 mGMC Canyon Denali, trading in a 2015 Yukon Denali. I've owned multiple GM trucks including an Avalanche, Yukon, and Colorado. I wasn't thrilled with the reliability of my Yukon, but decided to give GMC another chance. I've had my Canyon for two weeks. Here are my quick thoughts: Then Canyon Denali looks great, the fit and finish feel solid so far, with no … noticeable rattles. The cab is pretty quiet, but I do find the 4 cycliner 2.7 liter engine to be a little noisy (and it is a weak sound you would expect on a cheap Toyota -- it's not a masculine sounding engine you would expect on a truck). I'm 6'3" and have plenty of leg-room in the driver's seat. Head-room is above average. The seat is comfortable with adjustable power seats and lumbar controls. Be warned, with the front seat set all-the-way back, there is ZERO room for the legs of even the smallest person. The display screen for the info center is big, but the system is not super intuitive or easy to use. Furthermore, pretty much everything (including for example, turning on the fog lights), requires going through the touch screen. There are very few physical controls in this vehicle. The drive is nice, and very smooth. The turning radius on this vehicle is HORRIBLE. You need 3+ lanes to make a U-turn. I have not used the 4wd yet. My biggest complaint is the vehicle lacks decent interior storage and there is no way to lock either the glove box or the center armrest. Apparently, GM figured saving $10 on a lock is worth the customer aggravation. It is extremely aggravating as there is no place to lock anything (gun, medication, purse, wallet, or any other valuables). Everyhing must go with you or be left unlocked when using a valet or even typical parking at the mall, etc. VERY POOR DECISION on GMs part. I hate this! Another savings GM (and other manufacturers) are going to is no printed owner's manual. I hate this. You must use the app, and the app is clunky, and the details in the app's manual are a complete joke. Note to GM, if you're going to save $ on not printing manuals, make the app's manual stellar! There is no way to program a garage door remote to the vehicle. Another big dunce cap design decision. There is a 110V outlet in the cab behind the center armrest which is nice. There is another in the bed, which is also nice. But, THERE IS NOT A SINGLE CIGARETTE PLUG INPUT PORT which sucks. I have a tire inflator and a refrigerated cooler I can no longer use thanks to GMs cost-saving measures. I didn't even thing to consider such a port would be missing when I took the test-drive and looked the vehicle over. The stock Denali rims look very basic and cheap. Chrome would make this look sharper. Overall, I'm satisfied with my Canyon, but had I known about these minor deficiencies on its design, I would have looked at other trucks. GM certainly knows how to shoot its loyal customers right in the foot.

FINALLY got my AT4!!!

2024 GMC Canyon AT4 4dr Crew Cab 4WD SB (2.7L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

I special ordered a Canyon AT4, blue, advanced trailering package, sprayed on bed liner in July of '23...fast forward 8 months of UAW strike, model year switchover delays, software rewrites, 'stop-sale' due to whatever other issues - I took delivery of my '24 on 3/30. Very nice upgrade from my '17 Colorado Z71. Ride is smoother overall, 4WD Auto worked great during an early April …

I (still) Don't Love It, but I May Like It

Beeker318, 08/14/2024

2024 GMC Canyon AT4 4dr Crew Cab 4WD SB (2.7L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

I've had the truck a bit over a year now, with about 15,000 miles. Exterior: design is modern, with good ride height. LED lights are bright and very nice (after several months, and multiple appointments the blinking headlight problem was corrected). I like that there aren't turn signal indicators on the side mirrors, or blinking third brake light. Cameras are very nice, wish it was … easier to activate them when moving. Nice off-road, AT4 trim handles a lot of bumps and grunts. Not crazy about the G80 differential, but it does work, eventually getting me out of ruts, but it is not as nice as having a selectable rear locker. Interior: The interior is largely what sold me on the Canyon and the AT4 trim in particular. It's a mostly good looking interior. The seats are great. The layout of controls is mostly good. I'm not a fan of not having a mechanical light control, but setting to auto pretty much eliminates the need for that function - except for one, hugely annoying thing, - You cannot set the fog lights to come on automatically with the headlights. They must be activated, every single time. Safety feature?? PITA. Another miss is the wiper control. You can't see it because of the steering wheel and it is unlit, so you can't see settings at night, at all. Also, while the interior is nice, I believe GMC missed out on some fairly simple "upgrades" that would make this truck a luxury contender (it is not, even in the Denali trim). The dash and upper doors are plastic. There is no entry handle for the driver (all passengers have it (?)). Homelink technology is not available even as an upgrade. Worst of all for me, because I would like to use it is the rear sliding window - which is manual on ALL trims. No electric control available. The other thing I've noticed is that this truck feels tight and confined, much more so than the second gen Frontier I had. Storage space is also not good, but I do really like the tailgate storage bin. (It'd be nice to have an option for an electric tailgate GMC). One of the bigger problems with this truck for me is that it's too complicated and overloaded with tech that doesn't produce any true value as the owner. The pedestrian crossing safety is seriously aggressive even at the lowest level. I turned off the lane departure assist after a few months because it's just annoying. Every few months the radio suddenly decides to not turn off with the engine stopped and door opened. It will do that for about a month and then suddenly stop, only to repeat. I strongly dislike the auto stop feature that can't be permanently turned off. I don't like the idea that GMC monitors the "diagnostics" of the vehicle. My biggest technology issue - the twitchy transmission that randomly will not want to upshift. The worst part, and this is more of a complaint about the modern car-buying process in general, is the constant pressure, from the dealership, onboard "reminders", text messages, and emails, to activate what amounts to tracking devices (GMC app, OnStar, Google Location). I absolutely feel monitored when driving (because I am), and I don't like that. If GMC could / would fix a few of the obvious shortcomings to this truck that keep it from feeling luxurious and robust, it would probably be a good truck. But I'm not sure I would love it even then. I kind of wish I had looked around to see what I could have gotten in a mid 50's resto-mod for similar money.

2024 GMC Canyon Denali 4dr Crew Cab 4WD SB (2.7L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

I love the looks of the Canyon. Rides real smooth with a streamlined body. I love the remote ap that allows starting, locking, temp controls, etc. I have the Denali package and although a bit pricey, I like it a lot. That being said there are a few negatives. The most annoying aspect of this truck is the glare on the driver and passenger windows. When you look at your side view …
