Compact and Capable
A compact truck doesn’t have to be light on muscle, and the GMC Canyon demonstrates that raw power can be efficiently balanced with agile maneuverability. The well-rounded pickup delivers class-leading towing capacity with its sturdy powertrain, and it can handle any job on the road or off the beaten path. When the work is done, you can head out in style and comfort, as the truck also sports a refreshingly handsome and durable interior for its class.
The 2017 Canyon is available in five terms:
- SL
- Canyon
- SLE
- SLT
- Denali
The standard SL is built for work, and all the trims above the base add to that capability with extra features and options. The Canyon trim replaces the standard vinyl upholstery with cloth, and it also offers a powerful V6 engine with two transmission options. It also comes with remote keyless entry and cruise control. The SLE builds on the Canyon’s list with a touchscreen infotainment system, smartphone connectivity, a Wi-Fi hotspot, Siri Eyes Free, and more. The SLT spots leather upholstery, plus many of the options found in the other trims. At the top of the range, the Denali trim has wireless device charging, Bose premium sound, ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and some smart safety tech like forward collision warning.
If you’ve got a job to do, the GMC Canyon is ready and waiting at Barker Buick GMC. You can come by our dealership whenever you’re ready to take this versatile truck for a test drive.
Interior Review of the 2017 GMC Canyon
As with other trucks, the Canyon’s seating arrangements will depend on the cab style you want. The standard model seats two, while the Extended Cab holds four, and the Crew Cab carries five. In any build, drivers have found the front seats supportive and comfortable, and the Crew Cab can easily accommodate adults in the front or back. Cabs with a back row can also accommodate young children with two complete set of LATCH car seat anchors. The cabin is lined with high-quality materials, and while the standard vinyl is appropriately durable for a work truck you may adjust the interior to your preferences with available upgrades like heated and ventilated front seating, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, cloth upholstery, or leather upholstery.

Performance of the 2017 GMC Canyon
GMC offers several engine choices for the Canyon. The standard issue is a 200-horsepower 4-cylinder that’s well suited for general purposes. If you have some serious work to do, you could consider the brawny V6 that pushes 308 horsepower. The Canyon may also be equipped with a 181-horsepower Duramax 2.8-liter turbodiesel capable of 369 pound-feet of torque. You may choose between a six-speed manual transmission or a six-speed automatic in the base, while the V6 can also pair with an eight-speed automatic. When properly outfitted for the job, the truck can tow as much as 7,700 pounds and haul 1,650 pounds. If you intend to go off-road, the pickup can be equipped with special performance tools like all-terrain tires, four-wheel drive, and enhanced suspension. The ride is surprisingly smooth for a truck, and the Canyon handles remarkably well for its class.
