My new GMC Canyon AT4 is simply brilliant. After owning 2 consecutive Chevrolet Colorado Z71s (2016 with the V6 and 2018 with the baby Duramax) which I both loved, I decided to get fancy and go with the 2023 GMC Canyon AT4 in Volcanic Red. Let's just say that my new truck is unbelievably comfortable and capable. It might not just be the prettiest truck I have ever owned, it might be the prettiest truck I have ever seen. The exterior couldn't look better if they tried. The interior is incredibly well appointed and it is overflowing with technology. People literally stop and stare at it when they see it. I am also optimistic that it will function fabulously. This mid-sized truck fits perfectly in my garage, on city streets, on on Utah mountain dirt roads. I couldn't be happier.

I ordered a GMC Canyon AT4 and got it May 22. I've put about 1800 miles on it. Overall I really like the pickup. I kept my 2013 Chevy Silverado 1500 regular cab long box pickup which has 140,000 miles on it, WT with an LS package. The Canyon is almost the same outside dimensions, just a few inches narrower about 4 inches at the mirrors. Only configuration on Canyon is Crew Cab with short box, 5'2" . The features I really like are the big infotainment screen of 11", the storage area in talilgate, the ability to tow 7700 lbs on a trailer. It rides a little smoother than my Chevy, not quite as good as a car, but that is to be expected. The 2.7l 4 cylinder turbocharged motor seems to have plenty of power. This is max output motor with 430 ft/lbs of torque. Open road driving on Interstates I got between 19 and 20 mpg. On two lane highways running 60 to 65 gets in the 21 to 22 mpg range. I have the LT tires on 18" wheels which EPA claims gets lower MPG, but it doesn't seem like it too me. What is nice is the size works great for running errands in town and the ability to park easily anywhere. I would definitely buy it again.

I ordered a new 2023 canyon AT4,when it came in I was excited.When the sales person was explaining some of the new electronics at the dealership, we couldn't get my i-phone to sync with some of the electronics.Salesman no problem, same thing happened recently to same vehicle,guick fix.That was a month and a half ago.Factory says because it is a new production, they have not made any new parts for them.They said it might take a couple of weeks to get the part.That didn't happen.I have called the G M C factory several times and nobody will give me a time frame for the part production.Seems like General Motors has a serious problem.Very disappointed, if anyone is thinking about a new Canyon I hope you have better luck.
Extremely Disappointed

I recently purchased a 2023 GMC Canyon with high hopes and expectations, but my experience has been nothing short of a nightmare. At just 317 miles on the odometer, the dreaded check engine light illuminated, signaling the beginning of a seemingly endless cycle of issues. First and foremost, it's baffling that a brand-new vehicle would already experience such a critical problem. One would assume that GMC had thoroughly tested their vehicles before releasing them to the market, but my unfortunate experience proves otherwise. Upon contacting the dealership, they assured me that they would take care of the issue under warranty. However, the inconvenience of having to bring in a brand-new vehicle for repairs is unacceptable. Not to mention, I had to deal with the inconvenience of arranging alternate transportation during the time it took to fix the problem. Moreover, this incident has left me with lingering doubts about the overall reliability of the 2023 GMC Canyon. If such a significant problem arises at such low mileage, what other troubles can I expect down the road? The peace of mind that comes with owning a new vehicle has been shattered, and I now question the trustworthiness of GMC's engineering and quality control. In conclusion, my experience with the 2023 GMC Canyon has been nothing short of a disappointment. The check engine light at only 317 miles was a frustrating and disheartening experience, casting doubt on the vehicle's reliability and the brand's commitment to quality. I would caution anyone considering purchasing this model to think twice and thoroughly research their options before making a decision. GMC needs to step up its game and regain the trust of its customers through improved quality control and better customer service.
