2024 GMC Terrain SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2024 GMC Terrain is offered in four trim levels: SLE, SLT, AT4 and Denali. All models are powered by a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine (175 horsepower, 203 lb-ft of torque) paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive optional, on the SLE and SLT trims. All-wheel drive is standard on the AT4 and Denali trims.

SLE
The SLE trim comes with a generous complement of standard features, including:

  • 17-inch wheels
  • LED headlights
  • Heated side mirrors
  • Keyless entry and start
  • 7-inch infotainment touchscreen
  • Cloth seats
  • Automatic climate control
  • Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration
  • Six-speaker sound system
  • Satellite radio
  • Wi-Fi hotspot
  • Forward collision warning with automatic braking (warns you of an impending front collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
  • Lane keeping assistance (steers the vehicle back into its lane if it begins to drift over the lane marker)

SLT
The SLT trim adds plenty of luxury and convenience features that include:

  • 18-inch wheels
  • Foglights
  • Hands-free power liftgate
  • Roof rails
  • Remote engine start
  • Dual-zone automatic climate control
  • Leather upholstery
  • Leather-wrapped, heated steering wheel
  • Power-adjustable, heated front seats
  • 8-inch infotainment touchscreen
  • Ambient interior lighting
  • Additional USB ports and SD card reader
  • Household-style 110-volt power outlet
  • High-definition rearview camera

AT4
The AT4 trim is positioned as an off-road version, though it looks more rugged than its actual all-terrain capabilities. It adds upgrades such as:

  • 17-inch gloss black aluminum wheels
  • All-wheel drive
  • Underbody skid plate
  • Unique styling cues
  • Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the Terrain and the car in front)
  • Blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic warning (alerts you if a vehicle is in your blind spot during a lane change or while in reverse)
  • Rear parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible behind the vehicle when parking)
  • Safety alert seat (vibrates the driver's seat cushion when a safety warning is triggered)

Denali
The range-topping Denali trim adds the AT4's extra driver assistance features (less adaptive cruise control) and a complement of luxury and tech features, including:

  • 19-inch wheels
  • Upgraded suspension components for smoother ride
  • Integrated navigation system
  • Bose premium audio
  • Wireless charging pad
  • Upgraded driver information display
  • Head-up display (displays important information in your sight line onto the windshield)
  • Safety alert seat (vibrates the driver's seat cushion when a safety warning is triggered)
  • Front and rear parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible in front of or behind the vehicle when parking)

Among the key packages is the Denali's Black Diamond Edition, which adds:

  • Sunroof
  • Heated rear outboard seats
  • Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the Terrain and the car in front)
  • Ventilated front seats
  • Semi-automated parking system (steers into a parking spot with little or no driver intervention)
  • Surround-view monitor (gives you a top-down view of the vehicle and its surroundings for tight parking situations)

Many of the Denali's standard and optional features are also available for the lower trims in smaller packages or as stand-alone items.

Which Terrain trim does Edmunds recommend?

The SLT gets our vote. Its cabin is upgraded with leather upholstery and more features than the base trim. Consider adding the Pro Safety Plus option to get adaptive cruise control and more driver assist features.
