The 2017 GMC Terrain for buyers
No 2017 GMC Terrain is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. For anyone shopping for the 2017 GMC Terrain, here are the facts that matter.
Before you sign for the Terrain
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 135 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine, power train and unknown or other; have those parts checked.
The figures, translated
The powertrain here is the 2.4L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive and a 6-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
The EPA rates it at 9.4 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 28 litres. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $14.57, and a 300 km weekend about $43.71. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,700 a year for 15,000 miles.
The Terrain in everyday use
Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height. With 793 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
When the Terrain makes sense
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage.
Rent it for a week first
Rent the Terrain for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. A week with the Terrain answers more than any brochure. If the Terrain is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.
The cost of driving it
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Narrowing it down
If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Within the 2017 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
Let us know
A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.
Rent it for a week before you buy
