For anyone who is thinking about getting a new vehicle this year, the 2019 GMC Terrain may be exactly the compact SUV you’re looking for. The GMC Terrain is an extremely versatile SUV that gets you where you want in the city but is still ready to rough it if you need to do something more demanding than travel down a highway. Plenty of people have questions about the GMC Terrain, and we’ve answered some of the most common ones!
No, the GMC Terrain, as a compact SUV, does not have a third row of seats. There are only two rows. Although, for extra storage, both the second row and the passenger seat up front can fold down flat to increase the space if more cargo capacity is required.
The GMC Terrain seats five people comfortably. One driver and one passenger up front, with three passengers in the second row.
No. While all GMC Terrain vehicles come with a turbocharged engine, they are 4-cylinder engines.
You have a few wireless options for playing music, including using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, but if you want to pair your phone directly to the operating system in the Terrain, you can do this too. Just use the touch screen, swipe to “Phone,” and select “Connect Phone” once your phone is ready to connect.
If your radio is disconnected from a power source, it will lock out as an anti-theft measure. To reset the radio, hold down the pre-set buttons, and get a series of codes. Take those codes and call up customer support for the radio manufacturer, input those codes and get a new code, and input that code into the radio to reset it. Consult the owner’s manual for the exact details on unlocking, buttons to press on the radio, inputting codes and which phone number to call.
The GMC Terrain is primarily assembled in Mexico. The first generation of vehicles was assembled in Ingersoll, Ontario. Any model from 2018 onwards is assembled in San Louis Potosi in Mexico. All of this still falls under North American vehicle assembly.
The mileage depends on which model of GMC Terrain you decide to buy since the engine may differ based on class. If you buy the Terrain SLE or SLT models, the mileage is 9.2/7.9 L per 100 km in the city or highway. However, this changes if you have a front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive model, and it changes again if you bought a Denali, which has a 2.0 L turbocharged engine, compared to the 1.5 L models. The 2.0 L Denali gets 11.2/9.0 L per 100 km for city/highway driving.
The GMC Acadia is the larger of the two vehicles. The midsize Acadia sports a third row for seating, while the GMC Terrain has two rows. If you have a larger family or larger cargo-carrying needs, the GMC Acadia is for you; otherwise, the GMC Terrain will suit you.
The GMC Terrain has had two generations of models. The first generation of this vehicle came out in the summer of 2009, and it was in production with some revisions right up until 2017. In 2018, the second generation of vehicles came out, and these are the models currently being assembled and sold today.
