Snazzy little SUV

Picked it up for my father. Wonderful safety features, very good on gas. I like that the 1.5 liter can accelerate in gear from 1300 rpm without having to upshift

I was pleasantly surprised how peppy this small SUV is. I love all the safety features and the fact that I don’t have to pay so much for gas since it takes regular 87 octane. I took it on a long trip this weekend and it performed great.

Unreliable where it gets below 10C

Turbo has an inner cooler that freezes up on a consistent basis, leaving you with low power to limp to a dealership to have it dealt with. I guess GMC is not acknowledging there is an issue as they don't sell enough in the northern areas to worry about due to every vehicle with this engine has this issue. Cheaper to fix than repair permanently. Dealerships are overloaded with this issue. It is not reliable in winter, can't trust a commute, can't take it on a winter vacation. Can't trust it not to freeze up. Too bad, I quite liked it otherwise.

Most reviews are not favorable but in the "car buying climate" right now I feel I got a fair deal. Bought 22 SLE for my wife 60 yrs old very safe driver who goes 10-20 miles a day for work etc...I have owned many vehicles in my life (61 yr old male) and this car is great for her situation is all im saying I think its a good-looking great vehicle all things considered..I swore off American cars years ago but have to say "I love this vehicle" .

Terrain AT4 is Great

I’ve had all kinds of SUVs. This is a great little truck. Ride quality is excellent it is very quiet. I was concerned that it was going to be sluggish it is actually pretty quick for what it is especially off the line. Get high 30s on road trips for mileage. I do like off Roading and found out the hard way that it is not a jeep. However it does go through deep sand on the beach very well and does not get stuck it just doesn’t have a lot of ground clearance. I prefer having better performance on the road with 4 x 4 capability which This truck does have. Technology is much better than the BMW I just traded it in for. I love the 360 cameras. I really do not have any complaints. It is a fabulous little truck.
