2010 GMC Canyon With the 2.9L 4 Cylinder
GMC has given the Canyon two engine choices for 2010, a 2.9L 4 cylinder or a 3.7L 5 cylinder. The 4 cylinder is the Canyon's base engine, and it produces a maximum of one hundred eighty-five horsepower. The 5 cylinder is the optional engine, and it produces a maximum of two hundred forty-two horsepower. The Canyon's bed is six feet long, and has a payload capacity of one thousand four hundred forty-one pounds when equipped with either the four cylinder or five cylinder engine. The truck bed volume is forty-four cubic feet.

The four cylinder powerplant is a dual overhead cam unit which comes standard with a five speed manual transmission; a four speed automatic transmission is optional. The optional 5 cylinder unit also features a dual overhead cam valve train, and both the base and optional engines incorporate multi-point fuel injection in their designs. The Canyon can be ordered with either two wheel or four wheel drive. Fuel economy for the four cylinder is eighteen miles per gallon in city driving and twenty-four miles per gallon in highway driving; the optional 5 cylinder powerplant returns fuel economy figures of seventeen miles per gallon in the city and twenty-three miles per gallon on the highway. The GMC Canyon comes with a long list of standard features; air conditioning, anti-lock brakes, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and stability control are all standard features on the Canyon. The Canyon received four star crash ratings in U.S. Government testing for front passenger and front driver collisions.
