2025 Gmc Terrain AT4 Redesign, Price, Pictures

2025 Gmc Terrain AT4 Redesign, Price, Pictures  –  The 2025 GMC Terrain AT4 enters the model year with a little more power, an improvement to its brake assist, and some new exterior colours. While its mechanical sibling, the Chevrolet Equinox, has a smoother aesthetic, the Terrain AT4 lives up to its GMC badge with chunkier styling. The exterior accents are dependent on the trim, and the top-level Denali includes a chrome mesh grille. Other items include its 19-inch wheels, along with a hands-free power tailgate that’s also included on all but the base SLE trim.

Inside, the Denali comes standard with perforated leather upholstery and metallic trim, and the cabin design is plain but handsome enough. But the hard-plastic surfaces don’t really give the top-level impression that you get in that trim in other GMC models with the same Denali treatment.

2025 Gmc Terrain AT4 Redesign and Update Plan

Exterior and Interior

The Terrain AT4 feels roomy inside, in spite of being a bit behind many competitors by the tape measure. It has more front-seat headroom than the Toyota RAV4, but slightly less than the Honda CR-V, Hyundai Tucson, or Subaru Forester; for the rear seat, the RAV4 and Tucson have more. Legroom is very close between them all, but for those in the rear, the Tucson is the roomiest.

That roominess is offset by the seats and the ride, both of which are very firm. Often that can indicate a supportive seat that will keep your spine happy, but the Terrain AT4 Denali’s chairs didn’t during this test. The heated and ventilated seats have three levels for both temperature settings. The heated rear seats let you select the entire seat, or just the backrest. That’s a neat feature in a lot of General Motors (GM) vehicles that lets you warm up a stiff back without overheating the rest, and would have been appreciated for the front chairs, too.  2025 Gmc Terrain AT4 Redesign

2025 Gmc Terrain AT4 Specs

Features on the Denali that it shares with some or all of the lower trims include an acoustically insulated windshield, hands-free tailgate, 110-volt power outlet, power-adjustable front seats with driver’s side memory, dual-zone automatic climate control, a flat-folding front passenger seat, heated seats and steering wheel, an auto-dimming mirror, and an eight-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Standard items unique to the top trim are its 19-inch wheels, automatic parking assist, navigation, eight-inch digital instrument cluster, upgraded audio, ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, wireless charger, and head-up display, which uses a screen that pops out of the dash, rather than projected onto the windshield.

Engine and Performance

A 1.5L four-cylinder turbocharged engine producing 175 horsepower and 203 lb-ft of torque, along with a nine-speed automated transmission, powers all Terrain AT4 models. This is an increase in power over the model’s 170 horsepower from 2022. It performs well when driving in suburban or city traffic, but when traveling on a highway, it strains and becomes sluggish. The Toyota RAV4 and Subaru Forester have similar power levels, ranging from 182 to 203 horsepower, but the Terrain AT4 has the highest torque rating of them, with the RAV4 coming in closest at 184 lb-ft.  2025 Gmc Terrain AT4 Redesign

AWD is optional on the base SLE and standard on all others. It’s an unusual setup where you can dial it back to FWD only, or opt for AWD all the time. Since it primarily drives the front wheels and powers the rear ones when needed for traction, it seems logical to always keep it in AWD so it’s there if you need it.

2025 Gmc Terrain AT4 Fuel Economy

The Terrain AT4 with AWD is rated by Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) at 9.9 L/100 km in the city, 8.3 on the highway, and 9.2 in combined driving. In my week with it, I came in on the nose at 9.2 L/100 km, and it takes regular-grade fuel. The AWD isn’t a huge penalty over the base FWD model, which rates a combined 9.0 L/100 km.

Among its AWD competitors, the Hyundai Tucson comes in just worse at 9.3 L/100 km, but the Toyota RAV4 rates 8.5; the Honda CR-V is 8.4; and the Subaru Forester gets a combined 8.2.  2025 Gmc Terrain AT4 Redesign

2025 Gmc Terrain AT4 Safety Features

All trims include emergency front braking with pedestrian detection, following distance indicator, automatic high-beam headlights, lane-keep assist, teen driver controls, and the back-up camera that’s mandatory on all new vehicles. That’s also the case with adaptive cruise control, park assist, and with the safety seat, which vibrates a warning if any systems detect a problem, such as drifting out of your lane.  2025 Gmc Terrain AT4 Redesign

2025 Gmc Terrain AT4 Price and Release Date

The Terrain AT4’s AWD versions start at $36,048 and run to $44,648 for my Denali. The Honda CR-V starts higher in AWD, at $39,040 to $45,390. Other rivals that start lower than the Terrain AT4 in AWD include the Toyota RAV4 at $34,520; the Subaru Forester at $32,970; and the Hyundai Tucson at $32,424; and only the Toyota gets pricier than the Denali (all prices including delivery).

The Denali has a lot of features, but it’s lacking in perceived value. Overall, with its harsh ride and plain interior, it doesn’t quite live up to its price because it doesn’t really say “Denali” as some of GMC’s other offerings do. Cross-shop its rivals and the Terrain AT4’s other trims as well. 2025 Gmc Terrain AT4 Redesign
