High-tech and stylish, the 2019 GMC Terrain is a crossover that speaks to the masses.
What's New for the 2019 GMC Terrain?
With new appearance options available, like the Black Edition and Chrome packages, you can make your Terrain look extra good on the highway. If you add the 8-inch touchscreen infotainment interface to your Terrain, then it also comes with an upgraded rearview camera. You can use this new camera to determine what exactly is lurking behind you - a lone grocery cart? an abandoned skateboard? - before you back up.
Why choose the 2019 Terrain?
One of the first things you'll notice about the Terrain is its comfortable, upscale cabin. Even with a full load of five passengers, everybody enjoys enough space for their heads, legs, elbows, and hips. As you climb the Terrain trim levels, you'll find luxurious extras, like leather upholstery, that add to the Terrain's stylish vibe. Come winter, the heated steering wheel and heated seats will keep you nice and cozy.
We're also big fans of the optional turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. When you upgrade to this particular powertrain, the Terrain feels both especially quick and refined, giving you the luxury treatment as you cruise along. The 2019 GMC Terrain is also notable for its tech supplies. With standard features like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, you can access your smartphone without lifting a finger from the wheel. OnStar is also at your service. If you get into an accident or your Terrain brakes down unexpectedly, this emergency telematics system sends help.
What features does the 2019 GMC Terrain offer?
If a particular feature is on your wish list, you can bet it's available for the Terrain. Here's a look at some of the Terrain's best comfort, convenience, and safety features.
Passenger Comfort
The 2019 GMC Terrain is known for its roomy cabin. But, in addition to giving you and your family road-trip-friendly space and supportive seating, it also adds some style with high-quality materials and options like leather upholstery. Front and rear seat heaters are also available, wrapping you in warmth when it's cold outside.
Safety
Every Traverse comes standard with OnStar emergency telematics. If you encounter engine trouble or get into an accident, this system connects you with the help you need. GMC's Teen Driver technology keeps tabs on newbie drivers with curfew alerts and geo-fencing. When you add high-tech driver aids, like the safety alert seat, the Terrain actually warns you about nearby danger.
Infotainment and Tech Gear
The 2019 GMC Terrain has all the latest timesavers and gadget-friendly features. Each of these crossovers comes standard with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration features, so you can make hands-free calls or view your Maps app on the central touchscreen. (The central touchscreen is also standard.)
When you want to charge smaller devices, use one of the Terrain's many USB ports. To charge gadgets with bigger batteries - like laptops - invest in the 110-volt power outlet. Finally, the Terrain's modern conveniences - like keyless entry and ignition - help you make the most of your time on a busy day.
What's the 2019 GMC Terrain towing capacity?
Towing is one of the GMC Terrain's strengths, giving you more power to tow your heavy toys around than competitors. With the base or diesel engine, this peppy crossover can tow 1,500 pounds' worth of Jet Ski or fishing skiff. If you've got heavier toys - like a slightly bigger boat or a pair of Jet Skis - choose the turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. With this engine and some trailering equipment, the GMC Terrain will tow max loads of 3,500 pounds.
