2019 GMC Terrain SLT

The 2019 Terrain is GMC's compact SUV, a more upscale take on the Chevrolet Equinox with a focus on comfort and tech. It drives smoothly and quietly, with a ride that soaks up bumps well, though the start-stop system can hesitate when pulling away. The cabin feels upscale for the class, and the rear seats fold flat for extra cargo room when you need it. Standard tech includes a touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus available 4G Wi-Fi for passengers. The SLT sits above the base SLE and below the loaded Denali, adding comfort touches like heated seats and a power driver's seat. This SLT pairs a turbocharged 1.6L I4 with a six-speed automatic and all-wheel drive, and it sips fuel at 32 mpg combined. The diesel's 240 lb-ft of torque makes it feel stronger off the line than the horsepower suggests, though the engine is a bit gruff under hard throttle.
