What should I look for when buying a used 2022 GMC Canyon?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base Elevation Standard is the most stripped-down version, while higher trims add more premium touches and equipment. The Denali stands out with a more upscale look and feel, and the AT4 brings a more rugged character with off-road-oriented hardware and styling.
• Powertrain: You can choose from a 200-horsepower 2.5-litre four-cylinder, a 308-hp 3.6-litre V6, or a 181-hp 2.8-litre Duramax turbodiesel four-cylinder. The V6 and diesel are the stronger choices if you want more capability, while the base four-cylinder is described as adequate but uninspiring.
• Safety package: The Driver Alert package adds forward-collision alert, lane-departure warning, and rear parking assistance. It is available on the Elevation and AT4 and standard on the Denali, but rear park assist is only available on models equipped with leather seats.
• Infotainment: The base trim gets a 7-inch colour touchscreen. Higher trims move to an 8-inch touchscreen with Bluetooth streaming audio, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto, while the Denali adds navigation and a high-definition rearview camera.
• Fuel efficiency: The 2.5-litre four-cylinder returns combined fuel consumption of 10.9 L/100 km, or 11.4 L/100 km with 4WD. The turbodiesel achieves 10.1 L/100 km with RWD and 10.5 L/100 km with 4WD, while the V6 gets 11.3 L/100 km with RWD and 12.1 L/100 km with 4WD.

Which 2022 GMC Canyon trim should I buy?

The 2022 GMC Canyon is offered in 4 trim levels: Elevation Standard, Elevation, AT4, and Denali.

Here's the short version:

• Elevation Standard: This is the entry point, so it makes sense if you want the Canyon’s core truck utility at the lowest price. It covers the basics, but you give up the more appealing infotainment and safety upgrades found higher up the range.
• Elevation: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds the larger 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto while staying below the more expensive off-road and luxury versions.
• AT4: Choose this if you want the rugged look and off-road hardware, plus a more premium cabin than the base trim. It is the right fit if you want the Canyon to lean adventure-ready.
• Denali: This is the luxury pick, with the most upscale appearance and the richest feature set, including navigation, a high-definition rearview camera, and the Driver Alert package as standard.

The Driver Alert package is available on the Elevation and AT4 and standard on the Denali, but rear park assist is only available on models equipped with leather seats.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 GMC Canyon?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so it pays to compare listings carefully and move quickly on well-priced examples.

• Deal availability: 29.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 127 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.91% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $36,978 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 GMC Canyon's resale value?

The current average of $36,978 CAD sits slightly below last year's $40,156 CAD.

That softer pricing suggests the Canyon is currently more buyer-friendly than it was a year ago. For a future seller, that means you may not see the same return you would have expected when prices were higher. Even so, the Canyon’s premium image and strong owner satisfaction should help support demand when it is time to sell. Well-equipped trims are likely to hold more appeal than bare-bones examples.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.8/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 GMC Canyon safe?

The 2022 GMC Canyon earns four out of five stars for overall crash protection from NHTSA, with four stars for frontal crash protection, five stars for side protection, and three stars for rollover resistance. It earns a 4/10 safety score from our experts.

The Canyon’s standard safety equipment is thin on the base trim, which does not include advanced driver aids. It does include tire-fill alert and the Teen Driver system, which lets parents monitor driving habits and set limits. The Driver Alert package adds forward-collision alert, lane-departure warning, and rear parking assistance, but rear park assist is only available on models equipped with leather seats.

The main caveat is that the Canyon’s crash-avoidance performance trails the best in class. It received a Poor rating for headlights, a Basic rating for vehicle-to-vehicle front crash prevention, and a Marginal rating for its LATCH child-seat anchors.

Should I buy a 2022 GMC Canyon or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 29.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.91% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.8/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It keeps the premium look and feel, with a broad trim range that includes the AT4 and Denali.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $34,421 CAD, the 2021 costs less than the current year's $36,978 CAD average.
• It adds a refreshed face and a new AT4 trim.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $47,043 CAD, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $36,978 CAD average.
• It brings a redesigned, more upscale cabin and more advanced technology.

The bottom line: The 2022 is the best fit if you want the Canyon’s premium feel without stepping into the higher-priced redesign. If price matters most, the 2021 is the value play; if you want the newest and most upscale version, look to the 2023.
