Which GMC Terrain trim should I buy?

The 2022 GMC Terrain offers these trims:

• Terrain: The entry version is the most affordable way into the lineup, and it suits you if you want the Terrain’s core comfort and technology without stepping up to the more specialised trims.
• SLE: This trim adds a more accessible balance of equipment and value, and it suits shoppers who want a well-rounded choice with the available safety and tech packages.
• SLT: This is the best-value trim for many buyers because it adds a more upscale feel and standard front-wheel drive, with all-wheel drive available if you want it.
• AT4: This trim adds the bolder grille, black 17-inch alloy wheels, sport-terrain tyres, and a steel front skid plate, giving you the Terrain’s most rugged-looking setup.
• Denali: This trim adds a layer of luxury and comes standard with the GMC Pro Safety Plus Package, making it the most upscale choice in the lineup.

What GMC Terrain do most buyers choose?

The GMC Terrain years with the most listings are 2023, 2025, and 2024.

These higher-volume years tend to be the easiest places to shop because you get more choice in trims, colours, and equipment. They also tend to attract more cross-shopping, which can help you compare condition and pricing more efficiently.

What is the GMC Terrain's resale value?

Most model years are down year over year, which is good news if you’re shopping used because it creates more room for value. The steepest drops are concentrated across several recent and mid-cycle years, while one older year is moving in the opposite direction. Overall, the pattern favours buyers who want to step into a Terrain at a lower price than before.

The 2015, 2025, and 2017 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
