Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

For 2021 Optional diesel-powered engine is no longer offered.Minor changes to standard and optional feature availability.

Pros
Comfortable and upscale interior
Touchscreen interfaces are intuitive and easy to use

Cons
Price with options runs higher than average for the class
1.5-liter turbocharged engine is disappointing
Less cargo space behind the back seat than in most competitors

GMC hasn't made any big changes to the Terrain for 2021, but it has given the compact SUV a boost in the driver-assistance department. The Pro Safety Plus package now comes standard across the lineup and includes automated emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, and more.

Pros
Spacious cabin and cargo area,
efficient powertrains,
brisk acceleration with the optional turbo four.

Cons
A few cheap interior bits,
annoying shifter buttons,
expensive compared with class-leading SUVs.

The 2021 GMC Terrain's #11 ranking is based on its score within the Compact SUVs category. Currently the GMC Terrain has a score of 7.8 out of 10, which is based on our evaluation of 33 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
Roomy cabin
Good fuel economy
Refined ride

Cons
High starting price
Sluggish base engine
Small cargo capacity

The MU-X may look and feel a bit more basic than the Everest or Fortuner, but its tough Isuzu truck underpinnings is this SUV’s secret weapon. Isuzu also builds big commercial engines, designed to be reliable and robust, and that DNA is this engine.

Pros
Great new engine
Capable off-roader
Decent third row

Cons
Cabin is starting to age
Boot is smaller than some rivals
No advanced safety equipment

Like the D-MAX ute on which it's based, the evolution of Isuzu UTE's MU-X seven-seat SUV has remained relatively slow, its latest update headlined by extra torque from its 3.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel (now 130kW and 430Nm, up from 380Nm) and a new six-speed automatic transmission (previously five).

Pros
Rugged and practical
Very comfy ride
Drop-down rear video unit

Cons
Lacking some new safety tech
Turbo lag from a standing start
Rather basic cab trim
