2022 GMC Canyon Overview

GM Trucks are well known for their workhorse capabilities and rugged good looks. In fact, that’s why GMC refers to its pickup trucks as Professional Grade. With heavy-hitters like the Sierra 1500 and Sierra HD, the GMC Canyon can tend to get overlooked at times. This would be a big mistake if you’re in the market for a truck with modern styling, composed driving dynamics, and powerful engine options that lend themselves to high towing figures. Take a ride with Vern Eide Chevrolet as we explore the 2022 GMC Canyon, including its available powertrains, colors, trims, and more.

What can Mitchell’s truck enthusiasts expect from the 2022 Canyon?

Last season’s Canyon added new paint colors and revised its trim levels to redistribute features and introduce new models like the first-ever Canyon AT4. The GMC Canyon will carry these updates into the 2022 model year with minimal changes, with the exception of the GMC Canyon Denali Black Edition—a brilliantly dark design package that features 20″ low-gloss black aluminum wheels, aluminum, black 5″ rectangular assist steps, black chrome exhaust, and premium all-weather floor liners.
