Six Reasons to Love the 2025 GMC Canyon

The 2025 GMC Canyon is considered one of the best pickup trucks available today. It highlights GMC’s commitment to offering bold vehicles for those of us who combine work with play. From the value-added Elevation trim to the luxury of the Denali to the off-road conquering AT4X, there is a Canyon that will take you where you need to be – everywhere.  

According to Autoblog, there are six reasons to love the 2025 Canyon. Here are those reasons:  

Exterior Design 

The editor called it a “handsome devil.” We agree! Our bold, Professional Grade design has evolved into a brawny pickup truck that looks good anywhere. Whether it is at work, the shopping mall, or out in the countryside, the 2025 Canyon looks good against any backdrop.  

Powertrain 

Our turbocharged 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine punches way above all expectations. With 310 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque, Autoblog remarked that our TurboMax engine has “top notch grunt.” Combined with an eight-speed automatic transmission and a choice of two- or four-wheel drive, the TurboMax delivers on strong performance and efficiency, returning up to 23 mpg.  

Interior 

With an 11.3-inch diagonal touchscreen, an 11.0-inch diagonal color driver information center, and an optional 6.3-inch diagonal multi-color head-up display, Autoblog called it “a step up from basic pickup trucks.” In the Elevation, you get comfortable seats to command your Canyon, while you can spoil yourself in the Denali’s leather upholstery. The AT4 and AT4X add more support for traversing the trails – or the school parking lot.  

Towing and Payload 

With a maximum towing rating of 7,700 pounds and a top payload rating of 1,720 pounds, it is no wonder why Autoblog called these numbers “impressive.” Plus, the 2025 Canyon comes with compelling technology that adds to your towing experience, including Blind Zone Steering Assist with Trailering, a Hitch View that will help you line up your trailer with the hitch, and an in-vehicle trailering app. 

Four-Wheel-Drive System 

Autoblog loved the Canyon’s 4X4 system. It works as it “spools up and locks up at low RPM and works automatically,” although you can set up the transfer case from a knob on the dashboard. On the AT4X, you can also lock the front and rear differentials for more traction management.   

The Driving Experience 

Autoblog called the 2025 Canyon an “outstanding daily driver.” The editor continued, “[I]ts overall size isn’t much smaller than that of a full-size pickup truck, but it’s easier to maneuver, park, and store. Its excellent power also makes passing, overtaking, and off-the-line speed a relative breeze.”   

We agree with these points that Autoblog made about our 2025 Canyon, so it’s worth giving it a look. Contact us, Ewing GMC of Plano, to experience the 2025 Canyon soon! You might just agree with Autoblog, too!
