The 2026 GMC Canyon Adds Full-Size Capability to a Mid-Size Frame
Mid-size trucks used to mean compromise, but the 2026 GMC Canyon closes much of that gap with a Crew Cab layout on every trim, so you're not choosing between passenger space and towing capability. Joyce Buick GMC can help you explore this lineup near Avon if you want towing capability and off-road hardware without a full-size footprint. Below, you'll find engine, technology, and bed capacity details for the GMC Canyon.
Power and Performance
A 2.7-liter TurboMax™ four-cylinder producing 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque powers every GMC Canyon. The Elevation trim offers two-wheel drive or available four-wheel drive, while AT4, AT4X, and Denali trims use standard four-wheel drive so you're ready for trailheads without adding a package. Every configuration seats five in the standard Crew Cab body style.
Technology Features
An 11.3-inch touchscreen and an 11.0-inch digital Driver Information Center anchor the cabin, joined by wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility that gets your phone's navigation onto the big screen without a cord.
Available heated and ventilated front seats, wireless charging, and a Bose® premium audio system add comfort on long drives to the trail. Meanwhile, a 6.3-inch head-up display keeps your speed in view without dropping your eyes to the dash.
Safety Features
Canyon Pro Safety anchors the standard driver-assistance suite on the new GMC model, so an HD Rear Vision Camera with Hitch View helps you line up a trailer without a spotter. Forward Collision Alert and Automatic Emergency Braking react to hazards you might miss while towing, and Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking adds protection in town. Lane Keep Assist and IntelliBeam® automatic high beams keep you centered and visible on unlit backroads.
Towing and Cargo
Properly equipped, the Canyon is rated to tow up to 7,700 lbs, while AT4X carries a slightly lower 6,000-lb rating due to its off-road-focused setup. A 5.1-foot bed offers 41.9 cubic feet of cargo volume, and an available MultiStow® tailgate adds tool storage, so gear doesn't eat into your bed space. Available spray-on bedliner and underbody cameras on AT4X help you protect the truck and see obstacles on rougher trails.
