This vehicle was on the showroom floor. It contained most of the accessories wanted. One of the accessories not installed, backseat VDR, was given to us free. We paid the installation cost. Overall, it is the vehicle we wanted, style, make, model, etc. at the Edmunds projected price.

I absolutely love my 2021 gmc terrain. The ride is great and it has a big suv feel to it. I would buy another on in a second.

Bought my 2021 GMC terrain last Fall and I love it! Handles extremely well both in town and on the highway and even in snow! (AWD) It's roomy, not too bad on fuel, peppy and I love the many features it has as well. It's pretty freaky though how it will readjust itself if you are too close to the right white line, the crash alert is also pretty sweet. The 'hidden' volume control and radio channel changer...took me a while to discover they were on the back of the steering wheel! Lol For me it's an all around great upgrade from the Chevy Trax that I had.

Sporty Terrain SLT

Have owned only a few days. Technology is great, but needs time to set up and get acquainted, my personal opinion is there is more technology than needed. Acceleration very good, braking is quick and comfortable. Vehicle handles smoothly and provides a comfortable ride. Push button operational controls are a bit awkward and not ergonomically designed for people with larger hands.
