Trim Levels
The 2026 GMC Canyon lineup is easy to understand and easy to tailor.

AT4
AT4 adds trail-focused hardware and a more aggressive look. It brings enhanced road capability with off-road suspension tuning, standard four-wheel drive, and all-terrain tires that help maintain traction when conditions change.
AT4X

Denali
Denali is the most refined Canyon. It pairs the midsize pickup footprint with premium materials, distinctive styling, and comfort features that make daily driving feel more upscale.
