Four Highlights of the 2025 GMC Terrain

1. Drive Mode Selector

The standard Drive Mode Selector allows you to choose the best powertrain and transmission output for your specific driving environment. The front-wheel driveline models have a Snow and Normal driving mode, while the all-wheel drive models add an Off-Road and AWD driving mode. 


The Normal driving mode is best for urban and suburban driving in dry weather conditions. The Snow mode is best for winter or wet weather driving since it improves traction for more stability. If you take the SUV off the paved path, the Off-Road mode enhances overall output for better handling and stability on tough terrains. The AWD mode may be ideal in inclement weather, driving uphill, or any time you feel like all four wheels need equal power. 

2. Intersection Emergency Braking

The Terrain comes with a sophisticated automatic braking system that can detect potential frontal cross-traffic accidents, particularly when you are crossing an intersection in busy urban environments. When this system identifies a cross-traffic collision, it can engage the emergency brakes to prevent and mitigate a severe accident. If you are already hitting the brakes, this system can boost braking power to bring your vehicle to a halt. 

3. Heated Side Mirrors

The power-adjustable side mirrors have heated glass linked to the rear window defogger system, which means the outside glass automatically heats when you defog the back window. Heated mirror glass is a huge benefit in harsh winter conditions so you can easily melt away ice and snow. You can even use this system to combat frost while you drive. 


The power-adjustable mirror positions can be adjusted at the touch of a button in the cabin, allowing drivers to find the best angle to see the road behind them, curbs, and other obstacles. Additionally, these mirrors can manually fold to reduce damage to the mirror caps when you park on the street or near a wall. 

4. Active Noise Cancellation

The Terrain has a comfortable and quiet cabin environment thanks to active noise cancellation technology. This system works by using in-cabin microphones to identify road and wind noise seeping into the cabin. Using the SUV’s speaker system, this technology continually cancels out excess noise so passengers can enjoy a quiet ride or hear audio playback more easily. 


The GMC Terrain is a capable compact SUV with an adaptive drivetrain that gives you the confidence to drive on every road in any weather condition. Ask about financing when you call Marquardt of Barrington GMC in Barrington, IL.
