GMC Canyon Trims

With a reputation for having GM’s best-built trucks, it’s no wonder GMC is overshadowing Chevrolet these days. The new 2024 line of GMC Canyons comes in four different trim options, including the Canyon Elevation, the AT4, the Denali, and the AT4X – plus the all-new AT4X AEV Edition!

Even though the Denali is the top-of-the-line, super fancy, and most popular version of the midsize pickup line, the other models are worth looking at. You don’t want to spend too much money on features you’re never going to use or care about. Keep reading to find out which 2024 GMC Canyon is right for you.

Cab  Configurations

The 2024 GMC Canyon has two cab options for drivers. The least expensive option is the extended cab, which has only two doors and a shortened space behind the driver for two passengers.

The next size up is the crew cab. This is the most popular configuration option on the Canyon. It has four full-size doors and ample seating for five passengers. The back seat is full-sized, similar to an SUV. The extra passenger space eats into the box length.

The largest option is the crew cab with a long box. This features a full-size cab along with a full-size bed. Each larger cab size is obviously more expensive than the previous option. To make comparisons easier, we will be quoting prices for the two-weel-drive crew cab with short box, unless otherwise noted.
