Thank You VERY much for the video!! I built my new 2018 GMC Terrain Denali online and it should arrive in about a month. I AM SO EXCITED ! Especially for the Bose Sound System :)
Well guys, here's an all-new one for ya! This is the brand new 2018 GMC Terrain! How do you guys feel about it? Is it one of the better offerings in the class or is it still behind the rest? Let us know in the comments below, and don't forget to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE!
This seems like a decent package. I actually prefer the exterior styling over the Equinox. I'm not sure about those buttons for gear selection, but I suppose Terrain owners will get used to their location.
Saw one of these and fell in love with it, they call it a small crossover but im 6 feet tall and had my seat comfortably in the front and lots of room in the back, more than enough room. Even if you get the base package, you get alot of standard goodies this year that you could only get on the higher previous models.. might get a nice used one.
One HUGE flaw is the start stop technology in these 2018 models. Although I hear if you run this vehicle on manual mode (L on the shifter) and set it to the highest gear (+) you can bypass it and it will not shut off when stopped. Remember these are all turbos and need oil to cool them or they fail. They should not be stopped suddenly, especially after running hard. You would think GM would have known that. I also here the 2019 or 2020 models have an on off switch now.
I test drove one and liked it but the only thing that kept me from buying it was that STUPID STOP AND START with no way to turn it off .Once again GM has messed up a very good SUV !!!
did it stop when you had head or ac on. Ours does the same thing like a hybrid, but if weather is good, cool summers, and warm winters it will automatically do this. Having a Honda hybrid we were used to that. When you put your foot on the gas it should restart by itself.
I just bought a GMC terrain white sle This is a truck that drives like a small car love it would buy another one thanks to rob& Scotty for all your help God bless you Marine Mike got mine in East Aurora
Like the last gen and this gen is okay. Thank God they don't have the active safety features as standard across the board. That would be super annoying for people who don't want it. Great review! 👍🏻
Test drove one this weekend for the wife. The start/stop is a deal breaker. The engine shutters every time it restarts. Makes it seem ruff and unrefined. Ended up buying the CRV.
I had a 2017 Terrain SLE-2 with the V6. In 2019 I got rid of that for a new Jeep compass limited. It already has issues and it's sluggish. Im debating between the SLT or Denali trim level with the 2.0, still wish they had the V6 like the XT5.
+JUHYUN PARK Historically the Terrain has been pretty high quality, but for this new one I guess we will have to wait and see. The old had a lot less to go wrong haha
I've been driving the 2018 Terrain for four months now and I have to say that the shifter is no big deal after about a week of driving. It has two advantages over the traditional linear shifter in that selections are direct instead of having to move the shifter through space to the correct gear and since there is no lever to leave in the wrong position, the car can do things intuitively like automatically shift to Park if you put your foot on the brake and turn the vehicle off, ignore a shift into reverse while on the highway or choose Neutral instead of Park if the vehicle was traveling too fast to safely go into Park. Once you get past the loss of the old linear feel to shifting, this really is a quite functional shifting interface.
My husband bought our 2018 SLT Diesel not knowing anything about it. I told him no, because seats are too hard for bad back, and people who have bad SI roots in butt. It was a loaner with a little over 3,000 miles on it. I was big at 287 when bought. Tried to take it back within 3 days but cincinnati's Borschending would not accept. Then taking it for a complete look over and to get the Sirus/navagation, and phone taken care of could not be done due to someone who borrowed it had programed the whole thing, and they Holmans GMC, would have to put all new stuff back in. Cannot be reprogramed and we are making $534. oayments on the stupid thing. I feel like I am driving in a tin can.
I have another question ... My brother has autism and is 5’10 and I’m 5’8 aswell but do you think he’d be comfortable in the back ? I haven’t put him in my car yet because I’m haven’t seen him in a while but do you think he’ll be okay ?
Excellent presentation of this new Terrain. I'm very satisfied with information & answers to questions I wouldn't have thought to ask at the dealership. Thank you!
Did you run the 2.0 with regular gas? There is no gas savings if you have to use premium fuel? How do you think a deisel would be for interior heat in a cold Canadian climate?
1decee Premium fuel is recommended but not required for the 2.0L. GMC doesnt specify if using it helps power or fuel economy. And we have no idea about the diesel.
And congrats! For the moonroof, I'd take it to the dealer and see what they say, and if they say it's fine I'd look into getting a wind deflector attachment. Thanks for tuning in!
We haven't heard it in the Terrain, but we have heard it in the Equinox which it shares it with. Go to 15:13 of the Equinox Full Review (czcams.com/video/3gnGnsBisS4/video.html) video to hear a sample. Thanks for watching!
This is hideous! I have a 2016 Terrain & LOVE it. We previously had a 2013 Acadia- they rounded the body of Acadia, which is why we chose the Terrain. We loved the strong, masculine body style- this new version looks like every other sloped, rounded SUV on the road. I love GM products- but you have lost us with this and there are no other GM options that retain that beautiful strong, boxy look. Very sad to know when our lease ends we'll have to look elsewhere :(
I totally agree. I have a 2012 SLT-2 Terrain with all kinds of options on it and I absolutely love the look of mine and love driving it. It still has only 60,000 miles on it now. I love the boxy look because it stood out now the new ones just blend in with all the rest of the new autos.
Thank You VERY much for the video!! I built my new 2018 GMC Terrain Denali online and it should arrive in about a month. I AM SO EXCITED ! Especially for the Bose Sound System :)
No problem! And congratulations on your new car!! I'm sure you'll love it!
@The Mans Wars Its being discontinued in 2020 but for the 2018 and 19 model years, yes
Any updates? Have you had any visits to the mechanics?

Car Confections Much better than the last generation! The plastics feel less chintzy.
I’m so happy to see this because you are the only review I can find that will give and honest review. That’s why I bought one.
Awesome! Glad to hear that!

Thank you very much for posting this video so early. Dealers are just receiving their inventory.
You're very welcome! We try to get reviews on new cars ASAP :)
My dream American SUV! Brilliant job bro.
This is my car! Thank you for the video. It was fun!
I test drove one and liked it but the only thing that kept me from buying it was that STUPID STOP AND START with no way to turn it off .Once again GM has messed up a very good SUV !!!
inland85 It can be bypassed by shifting to L6 or L9 depending if you have a 6 or 9 speed transmission, respectively. L6 and L9 is the same gear as D

Thanks for the Bose demo. Quite helpful.
great review. Going to order a 2019 soon! Mike from Milwaukee!

Great overview. Nice improvement over the current terrain
Thanks :)

Best review of gmc terrain 🔥🔥good job
Good job guys. Thanks for the vid
El mejor video explica todo about GMC terrain, best video, congratulations !!
My car is SLE but it has the self start
I had a 2017 Terrain SLE-2 with the V6. In 2019 I got rid of that for a new Jeep compass limited. It already has issues and it's sluggish. Im debating between the SLT or Denali trim level with the 2.0, still wish they had the V6 like the XT5.
pretty impressive! any opinion on reliability?
+JUHYUN PARK Historically the Terrain has been pretty high quality, but for this new one I guess we will have to wait and see. The old had a lot less to go wrong haha
I'm pretty sure you guys can make any car look really good but that electronic gear shift is just too odd for me. Maybe I'm just old.
Ralph -- did I ever tell you you're my greatest American hero?
I used it in the Denali. I got used to it within the first 5 minutes.
I'm the same, don't like the shifter . To bad cause everything else looks really good.
I've been driving the 2018 Terrain for four months now and I have to say that the shifter is no big deal after about a week of driving.

one of the best videos - great information thanks
Thank you!
Headed Sterling wheel comes standard with slt

awesome review
I like it, but man, all cars and SUV’s are kinda all looking the same
great detailed review
+Jackie Stitler Thanks!
No v6. It's GM brothers have a v6?
I have another question ... My brother has autism and is 5’10 and I’m 5’8 aswell but do you think he’d be comfortable in the back ? I haven’t put him in my car yet because I’m haven’t seen him in a while but do you think he’ll be okay ?
Borris Müller I'm 6 feet, i sat in the driver's seat and put my seat to how i like it, and i sat in the back seat, there's more than enough room
It is quite roomy in the back seat.
Excellent presentation of this new Terrain. I'm very satisfied with information & answers to questions I wouldn't have thought to ask at the dealership. Thank you!
+Bev Bullett Glad you liked it!

Did you run the 2.0 with regular gas? There is no gas savings if you have to use premium fuel?
How do you think a deisel would be for interior heat in a cold Canadian climate?
1decee Premium fuel is recommended but not required for the 2.0L. GMC doesnt specify if using it helps power or fuel economy. And we have no idea about the diesel.
There is an auxiliary electric heater with the Diesel engine.
Just received mine. White, skylight, Denali. The skylight has wind noise starting about 45 MPH. Any ideas?
And congrats! For the moonroof, I'd take it to the dealer and see what they say, and if they say it's fine I'd look into getting a wind deflector attachment. Thanks for tuning in!
How do I reset the gas mileage
Have you heard the standard sound system? Is it good?
We haven't heard it in the Terrain, but we have heard it in the Equinox which it shares it with. Go to 15:13 of the Equinox Full Review (czcams.com/video/3gnGnsBisS4/video.html) video to hear a sample. Thanks for watching!
Awesome! You guys are the best! Keep up the good work fellas.
I have the standard sound system. It is adequate. It is nothing special acoustically.
What about reliablity. Its' made in Mexico?
So are toyotas.My tacoma 352,000 miles and have had 0 issues.
5 recalls in 3 years.
Good looking , STUPID Gear selector and NO optional V6 ! Equinox doesn't have that push button SHIT !
14:08
India when caning sir please
Uptown funk
Why do all the manufacturers highlight the fucking wheelhouse with a thick plastic bead? It´s so ugly and makes them look all the same.
Didn’t sound good at 3:15
The tail lights has a shrimp shape. Ugh...
Jose Cunha “C” shape! But it doesn’t smell like shrimp.

Who ever set the shift buttons in that location has serious mental issues. What a horrible design.
made in Mexico
Last generation a lot nicer
1 ugly car with a 4 banger!
Copy many look and features of Nissan Murano. No V6
