The 2023 GMC Terrain vs. the 2024 GMC Terrain: What’s the difference?

August 21st, 2024 by

At Cresmont Buick GMC, we’re proud to say that we can count drivers from Cleveland to Bedford, OH amongst our growing list of loyal customers. That’s because our guests know they can count on us to keep them in the loop about all the latest updates for the GMC Brand. Now, GMC has undergone quite a few changes in recent years, but it’s nevertheless managed to maintain the character and competitive footing of nameplates like the new GMC Terrain throughout the growth and evolution of its lineup. However, that’s not to say that the new GMC Terrain isn’t evolving in its own right. In fact, when you compare the 2023 GMC Terrain to the latest models on our showroom floor here in Beachwood, OH, we think you’ll find that there’s some substantive changes you’ll want to be aware of if you’re thinking of buying or leasing one in the near future.

What’s new for the 2024 GMC Terrain?

The GMC Terrain is positioned as the perfect entry point into the GMC SUV segment. Though it’s the smallest of our new GMC SUVs, slotting in just below the new GMC Acadia in terms of size, this compact SUV is considerably roomier than many of its rivals, making it a great fit for small families or daily commuters throughout the greater Cleveland area.

For its 2024 model year, the most notable change to the GMC Terrain comes in the form of its Pro Safety Plus Package. This robust standalone package equips the GMC Terrain with a host of innovative features designed to keep you safe and secure on the roads of Ohio, including…

  • Automatic Emergency Braking: Automatically applies the brakes if the vehicle detects an imminent collision with a vehicle or obstacle to prevent or mitigate impact.
  • Lane Keep Assist: Uses cameras to center the vehicle within a lane of travel on roads and highways
  • Lane Departure Warning: Plays an auditory alert if the sensors detect the vehicle drifting out of lane.
  • Forward Collision Alert: Plays an auditory warning to alert the driver to potential obstacles or hazards ahead.
  • Front Pedestrian Braking: Automatically applies the brakes if the vehicle detects an imminent collision with a pedestrian or cyclist to prevent or mitigate impact.
  • Follow Distance Indicator: Plays an auditory warning to alert the driver to unsafe following distance to the vehicle ahead.
  • IntelliBeam: Automatically dims high beams at night for oncoming traffic to avoid dazzling oncoming drivers.
  • Front And Rear Parking Sensors: Plays an auditory warning and automatically applies to brakes to prevent a collision while parking, parallel parking, or reverse perpendicular parking.

Now, this is already a stellar suite of safety technologies, but for the 2024 model year, the GMC Terrain gets even more tech features with its Pro Safety Plus Package, including…

  • Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert: Alerts the driver with a symbol and auditory warning if the vehicle detects an unsafe lane change that could cause a collision with an obstacle or vehicle in the blind spot.
  • Rear Cross Traffic Alert: Plays an auditory warning and automatically applies the brakes if the vehicle detects it is backing out into oncoming traffic or distracted pedestrians.

With these new safety features, the new 2024 GMC Terrain is a better fit than ever for safety conscious drivers. Better still, the Pro Safety Plus Package now comes standard for the 2024 GMC Terrain AT4 trim.
