If you're in the market for a midsize truck with full-size features, the all-new GMC Canyon
0:06
AT4 just might be for you. Hi, I'm Zane Mirva from GM-Trucks.com, and today I'm taking a look at the newest introduction
0:16
to the GMC Canyon lineup, the AT4. Slotted in between the Elevation and Denali trims, the AT4 is meant to appeal to a Canyon
0:25
buyer who wants to go more off-road or drive in inclement weather conditions
0:31
While not as luxurious as a Denali or as capable as a Chevrolet Colorado ZR2, the Canyon AT4
0:38
is creating its own niche in the GMC lineup. So let's take a look at the Canyon AT4 inside and out
0:46
The exterior of the Canyon AT4 is more rugged than other Canyon trim levels, thanks to super
0:51
meaty 31-inch tires. The model also comes with a unique black chrome grille, red tow hooks, and 17-inch
0:59
wheels to set it apart from other Canyon trim levels. Inside, buyers can choose an optional leather-appointed front seat package with Kalahari accents and
1:08
AT4 embroidered head restraints. An optional Bose audio system and advanced safety systems such as lane departure warning
1:16
and automatic crash avoidance are also available. But how does the Canyon AT4 perform on-road and off
1:23
Like the Denali and Elevation trims, the AT4 demonstrates crossover-like driving characteristics
1:30
That means a smooth, calm, and predictable ride, whether or not you're hauling stuff
1:34
in the bed or not. 308 horsepower from GMC's 3.6-liter V6 engine moves the AT4 along with a purpose not seen
1:44
on competitive models. And if you plan on doing some towing or long-distance driving, an available 2.8-liter Duramax four-cylinder
1:52
engine can give you up to 369 pound-feet of torque and up to 28 miles per gallon
1:58
But when the pavement ends or the going gets slick, the AT4 really comes into its own
2:04
Those huge Goodyear off-road tires ensure the Canyon AT4 will find traction where many
2:09
midsize trucks just can't keep up. As an owner, that means no road is too rutted and no snowstorm is too intense to keep you
2:17
on the sidelines. But if that capability isn't enough, an optional Off-Road Performance Package is also available
2:25
that adds a factory one-inch suspension leveling kit, performance front and mid skid plates
2:30
rocker panel protection, a spray-in bed liner, and upgraded floor mats. In short, the Canyon AT4 is a brand-new trim level for 2021
2:41
It comes with additional off-road-focused features and gives you added capability to
2:46
go on-road and off and looks more aggressive than other Canyon trim levels
2:51
The midsize Canyon is great for daily driving but doesn't have a ton of room for kids
2:56
pets, or cargo. If those are must-haves for you, we would recommend the larger GMC Sierra
3:03
But if you're looking for a vehicle to haul around the entire family or go even deeper
3:08
into the woods, GMC and Chevrolet have better options. And if you really want to stretch your legs off-road, the Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 is similarly
3:18
priced to the AT4 but comes with advanced DSSV shocks and rocker and underbody protection standard
3:26
However, with that said, the GMC Canyon AT4 is classy and competent
3:31
It offers an attractive option for anyone who wants a truck that will take them anywhere
3:35
they need to be without being a truck that's too big to drive around comfortably
