If you want a truck but prefer a smaller footprint than a traditional full-size truck, the 2024 GMC Canyon could be an excellent choice. This midsize truck offers the utility and versatility of a pickup truck in a smaller size.
GMC looks to have redesigned the latest model year, making it a more appealing option. It'll still offer you the comfortable ride, quiet cabin, and towing capabilities you want in a vehicle, as well as an upgraded interior design and bold styling. Our Uebelhor & Sons Buick GMC Vincennes team in Indiana invites you to explore the 2024 GMC Canyon's specs, features, and tech.

Which Trim Levels Will GMC Offer for the 2024 Canyon?
You can expect to start seeing the 2024 GMC Canyon available soon, and there's likely to be four trims: Elevation, AT4, Denali, and AT4X. The AT4X was introduced for the 2023 model year as an enhanced off-road-ready beast built for adventure at every turn. The first peek at the latest Canyon shows a more slanted windshield with overall larger dimensions and new aerodynamic improvements. The front end will offer a bigger and bolder grille, a new bumper, and more appealing lighting, creating a much more muscular style.
Standard features should include the following:
- Cab-mounted cargo area lights.
- A CornerStep rear bumper.
- Deep-tinted glass.
- A remote locking tailgate.
- Power-adjustable side mirrors.
- 18-inch dark gray aluminum wheels.
You'll also find LED lighting, including daytime running lights, taillights, and projector headlights, to light your way when you're driving down the darkest streets. A sliding rear window, body-colored bumpers and door handles, a spray-in bed liner, and 20-inch wheels will be available features on higher trims. You can also get an EZ-Lift and -Lower tailgate, a hard-folding tonneau cover by REV, a MultiStow tailgate, and a power sunroof on select trims.
The AT4X will feature 33-inch all-terrain tires, unique bumpers, underbody skid plates, an added inch of suspension lift over the AT4, front and rear axle lockers, and Multimatic shocks. The Edition 1 package for the AT4X will offer a winch, upgraded bumpers, additional cameras, light bars, and 17-inch beadlock-capable wheels. Whichever trim you select, the redesigned and upgraded Canyon is set to come out on top compared to other midsize trucks available and is guaranteed to turn heads as you cruise along the road.
What Will the 2024 GMC Canyon Have Under Its Hood?
GMC hasn't released any confirmations on the engine lineup for the 2024 Canyon, so there are rumors abound about what we might find under its hood. The current standard engine in the Canyon is a 2.7-liter turbocharged high-output engine paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. This combination delivers 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque. Speculations state that this engine will offer three different versions, each with different power output figures, starting from a standard base output of 237 horsepower.
Another option for the engine is rumored to be a 2.8-liter turbodiesel that offers 181 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque. The maximum towing capacity for a properly equipped 2024 GMC Canyon will be around 7,700 pounds, meaning you can bring your camper, boat, or ATV trailer with you on your weekend getaways. The payload capacity rating is 1,640 pounds. GMC will likely offer rear-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive versions, with the AT4 and AT4X featuring the four-wheel-drive system for better traction and control over various terrain and conditions.
What Interior Upgrades Can We Expect in the 2024 GMC Canyon?
An upgraded interior design is one of the biggest rumors for the 2024 GMC Canyon. Predictions have the cabin receiving significant changes, making the Canyon more inviting, sophisticated, and upscale. You and your passengers will delight in the upgrades that aim to increase your convenience and comfort. You can expect Bluetooth, an 8-inch instrument cluster, upgraded phone connectivity, and an 8-inch infotainment touch screen in the base trim. Upgrades will include:
- Additional USB ports.
- Wireless charging for your smartphone.
- A Wi-Fi hotspot.
- An 11-inch instrument cluster.
- An 11.3-inch touch-screen display.
- A robust sound system.
Truck enthusiasts also believe that GMC may offer optional packages with additional upgrades for the latest Canyon. Another new feature could include new interior color schemes for a unique appearance. Whatever GMC decides to offer for the new Canyon, you can expect that it will include nicer materials in the interior design to create a stylish shape for the dashboard.
What About Safety and Driver Assistance Features?
GMC knows how vital safety and driver assistance features are when purchasing a new vehicle, so the 2024 Canyon will come packed with standard and available features. The high-strength frame and advanced air bag system should keep you and your passengers safe in the case of an unfortunate accident. Standard features should include automatic on/off headlights and high beams, Buckle to Drive, a following distance indicator, a forward collision alert, hitch guidance, hitch view, lane-keep assist with lane departure warning, a rear seat reminder, and Teen Driver.
