Key Features of the 2027 GMC Terrain

15" diagonal Premium GMC Infotainment System

The 15" diagonal Premium GMC Infotainment System is one of the defining elements of the 2027 GMC Terrain. Its large color touchscreen display is designed to help you access, manage, and customize favorite in-vehicle entertainment and connectivity functions with less distraction and more clarity. The vertical-style screen gives the cabin a high-tech focal point, while the interface supports a more intuitive experience for drivers who rely on maps, music, calls, apps, and vehicle information throughout the day. Google built-in is referenced in GMC content for the Terrain, helping support familiar digital tools inside the vehicle. Paired with the 11" diagonal Driver Information Center on Elevation, the Terrain creates a streamlined digital environment that feels modern without becoming overwhelming. For online shoppers, this matters because technology is no longer a bonus in a small SUV; it is part of daily convenience. Whether you are comparing routes, adjusting cabin settings, or keeping passengers entertained, the Terrain places important controls in an easy-to-see, easy-to-use layout.

Over 16 standard safety and driver assistance features

GMC gives the 2027 Terrain a strong safety foundation with over 16 standard safety and driver assistance features. The available and standard safety content referenced by GMC includes practical systems designed to help increase awareness during everyday driving. Forward Collision Alert can warn you if it detects a potential collision with a detected vehicle you are following and can also provide a tailgating alert. Front Pedestrian & Bicyclist Braking can help you avoid or reduce the severity of a collision with a pedestrian or bicyclist it detects directly in front of you at speeds between 5 and 50 mph. Blind Zone Steering Assist can alert you and provide a brief, firm turn of the steering wheel when a potential crash is detected with a moving vehicle in the lane you are entering. Rear Cross Traffic Braking can alert you and automatically provide hard emergency braking when detected vehicles cross behind you while in Reverse. HD Rear Vision Camera shows a high-resolution digital image of the area directly behind the vehicle, and IntelliBeam can automatically turn high beams on and off according to surrounding traffic conditions at speeds above 25 mph. These systems do not replace attentive driving, but they add meaningful support.

Flexible cargo space

The 2027 GMC Terrain is engineered to make the most of its small SUV footprint. With seating for up to five passengers and up to 63.5 cu. ft. of max cargo volume behind the first row, it gives drivers flexibility without requiring a larger SUV. Behind the second row, GMC lists 29.80 cu. ft. of cargo volume, which is useful for groceries, luggage, sports bags, work supplies, and daily essentials. The 60/40 split-folding rear seats allow you to expand cargo space while still preserving a rear seating position when needed. GMC also highlights a rear cargo underfloor storage compartment, a smart solution for keeping smaller items tucked away and out of sight. The front center console passthrough storage adds another thoughtful touch, helping organize items that often clutter the cabin. For families, commuters, pet owners, and active drivers, this kind of flexible packaging makes the Terrain easy to appreciate. It is compact enough to park with confidence, yet practical enough to handle a varied schedule.

AT4 capability and selectable drive modes

The Terrain AT4 brings a more adventurous personality to the lineup with equipment that goes beyond appearance. GMC identifies AT4 key standard features such as AT4-exclusive Terrain drive mode, lifted ride height with red front recovery hooks, a front skid plate with steel underbody shield, 17" Dark Machined aluminum wheels, and all-terrain tires. LED fog lamps and the AT4-exclusive front skid plate help reinforce its purpose-built look and capability-focused attitude. Across the Terrain lineup, selectable drive modes support more confident driving in changing conditions, with available modes including Normal, Snow, Off-Road, Tow/Haul, and the AT4-exclusive Terrain Mode. Available All-Wheel Drive can add traction support when conditions or road surfaces call for extra confidence. The Terrain also offers towing capability of up to 1,500 lbs. when properly equipped with the available Trailering Package and In-Vehicle Trailering App. For shoppers who want a small SUV that feels ready for more than pavement, AT4 is an especially compelling choice.

Distinctive exterior and premium trim design

The 2027 GMC Terrain has a bold exterior presence that helps it stand apart from softer-looking small SUVs. Elevation features an upright grille along with LED headlamps and taillamps, giving it a strong first impression from the front and rear. AT4 adds rugged design cues such as LED fog lamps, red recovery hooks, and protective underbody elements. Denali takes the Terrain in a more refined direction with a signature Galvano chrome grille, chrome accents on the side and rear, animated headlamps and taillamps, 19" Midnight Silver machined-face aluminum wheels, and all-season tires. GMC also offers a two-tone roof in Sterling Metallic or Ebony Twilight Metallic, allowing shoppers to create a more personalized appearance. For added everyday convenience, the available AutoSense Power Liftgate can open hands-free when you walk up to the rear of the SUV with the key fob in your pocket or bag. The result is a compact SUV that looks upscale, capable, and unmistakably GMC from every angle.
