The next-generation Terrain features updated exterior styling influenced by the company's pickup trucks. A 15-inch center touchscreen and 11-inch driver display are standard, along with all-wheel drive. The 2025 GMC Terrain in entry-level Elevation trim goes on sale late this year.

The current GMC Terrain has lived quietly in the background of the company's lineup since 2018. It underwent a delayed facelift in 2022 , but despite its age, the Terrain is GMC's most popular SUV through the first half of this year. Now there's a new model, one GMC bills as the next generation for its entry-level SUV.

The first thing you'll notice on the 2025 GMC Terrain is the updated exterior styling. Actually, you may not immediately notice the differences—the overall design is similar to the outgoing version, especially with the C-shaped LED running lights in front and the up-kink to the beltline at the C-pillar. The new model adopts a forward slant to that pillar, similar to its Chevrolet Equinox counterpart.

The front is completely new, with a larger rectangular grille, sitting above a fascia with more angles and sharper edges. Things are new at the rear with more straight lines from a lower fascia that now has vertically-oriented reflectors. C-shaped taillights are smaller overall, while the Terrain's small rear quarter windows are replaced with larger panes of glass.

There's also a new two-tone roof option, punctuated by the floating roof motif created by the new C-pillar design. Moving .
