Overview & Reviews
The GMC Canyon receives numerous changes for 2009, the most welcome of which is the addition of a much-needed V8 engine option. Also, StabiliTrak, a bedliner and XM Satellite Radio are now standard fare, and the braking system has been upgraded. Finally, the base SL trim is no longer available, the sport suspension option returns after a brief absence, and there are a handful of exterior styling tweaks.
- Affordable price, composed handling on- and off-road, varied engine choices.
- Non-V8 engines lack power, mediocre seat comfort, subpar build quality.
