The 2016 GMC Canyon: before you buy

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2016 GMC Canyon for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. For anyone shopping for the 2016 GMC Canyon, here are the facts that matter.

What to check on the Canyon

Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA has 271 owner complaints on file, mostly about steering, power train and electrical system. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

What the figures tell you

The 2.8L 4-cylinder turbo is what moves it, with rear-wheel drive. It runs on diesel, sold at most highway stations. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

A combined rating of 9.5 L/100 km works out to about 29 litres per 300 km. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $14.73 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,850 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

A good match for

It suits moving day, renovation runs and anything that needs an open bed. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

The Canyon in everyday use

It is built for loads that would never fit in a trunk.

Drive it on your own roads

Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.

Which one to look for

Within the 2016 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

The cost of driving it

The EPA estimates US$3,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $14.73 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $147.30 at our price setting.

Still deciding?

A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2016 GMC Canyon from us first.
