TERRAIN
GMC is dedicated to pushing the limits of what’s possible. Our commitment is to one
ideal: building professional-grade vehicles that are engineered to offer the best in
performance, innovation and versatility. Like you, GMC believes that just being good
enough is never enough and jobs worth doing are worth doing right.
It’s why the 2013 Terrain is engineered to give you full-size capability in a more
efficient size with an EPA-estimated 32 highway miles per gallon with its I-4 engine,
or the most horsepower in its class with its available V-6. It’s why Terrain Denali is the
only SUV in its class with standard front, side and rear collision avoidance technology.

DESIGNED FOR QUIET
Want to create a remarkably quiet interior? Do what GMC engineers did with
Terrain. Use acoustic laminated glass in the windshield (upper) and front
doors along with triple door seals on all four doors (lower) to help reduce
road noise inside the passenger cabin. Airtight door seals not only baffle
unwanted road noise but also minimize air leaks for increased quiet. In Terrain SLT, comfort, convenience and style all come standard. So do power and
efficiency: With its 2.4L DOHC engine, no competitor can match Terrain’s combination
of standard horsepower and EPA-estimated 32 mpg on the highway.1Upgrade to
the available 3.6L V-6 and you put 301 horsepower at your command—the most
power of any SUV in its class.2
