Top GMC Models for College Students  
 

College life involves more than just studying in your dorm room. Whether you're attending a social event or picking up snacks from the supermarket, you often must venture off campus. Nothing beats having a reliable means of transportation. Being able to drive your own vehicle will make things a lot easier. Here are the top GMC vehicles for college students.

GMC Canyon

The GMC Canyon remains one of the highest-rated midsize pickups on the market. While the Canyon may have a reputation for being tough and rugged, don't overlook its impressive practicality. It is a highly recommended vehicle for college students.

Not only can the new Canyon haul all of your dorm essentials, but it also offers a great driving experience. GMC tunes the pickup's standard turbo four-cylinder engine to produce a hearty 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque. Furthermore, you only need to use regular gasoline to achieve maximum performance. A capable 4WD system is also available.

All of today's most popular features are available for the new Canyon. Several new niceties are now standard, including an 11.3-inch touchscreen with wireless smartphone integration and a new digital gauge cluster. If you're the parent of a college student, you'll especially appreciate the Canyon's standard Pro Safety package. Technologies, such as Forward Collision Alert with Automatic Emergency braking and Lane Keep Assist, help drivers avoid danger throughout the day.

GMC Terrain

Yet another great option for college students is the new GMC Terrain. Many drivers love this small SUV's versatility. Because the Terrain offers such an abundance of rear legroom, your college buddies are more than welcome to travel with you. A flexible cargo area with lots of space makes the Terrain even more rewarding. Yet another highlight is the vehicle's eye-catching appearance. Signature LED lighting comes standard.

All Terrain versions are powered by a lively 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. It cranks out 175 horsepower and 203 lb-ft of torque, ensuring effortless acceleration. College students will also enjoy the Terrain's fuel-efficient design.

The Terrain has several great features. While you're away from campus, the SUV's onboard Wi-Fi hotspot will keep you connected to the internet. Other standard equipment includes wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto smartphone connectivity, automatic climate control, and satellite radio.
