2022 GMC Terrain: Rugged-Looking and Economical

There are better SUVs out there than this GMC, but the Terrain does look nice and it's super efficient in real-world driving.

Craig Cole
Craig brought 15 years of automotive journalism experience to the Cars team. A lifelong resident of Michigan, he's as happy with a wrench or welding gun in hand as he is in front of the camera or behind a keyboard. When not hosting videos or cranking out features and reviews, he's probably out in the garage working on one of his project cars. He's fully restored a 1936 Ford V8 sedan and then turned to resurrecting another flathead-powered relic, a '51 Ford Crestliner. Craig has been a proud member of the Automotive Press Association (APA) and the Midwest Automotive Media Association (MAMA).

The GMC Terrain looks nice, but it's pretty ordinary.

There's nothing special about this SUV.

The interior is nice enough, with some pleasant soft plastics and an excellent infotainment system.

There's plenty of space in the Terrain's large backseat.

The split rear backrest easily folds down, transforming the Terrain into a veritable shipping container.

This is a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that is, at best, tepid.

That base engine is regrettably buzzy and not very responsive, packing just 170 horsepower and 203 pound-feet of torque.

AT4 versions of the Terrain feature more rugged styling, unique interior materials and plenty of tech.
