2012 GMC Terrain consumer reviews

Love my GMC Terrain. Researched this vehicle and finally took the leap and got a used one 2012 with only 8200 miles. Like a brand new car. I wish the steering wheel would go higher as I am tall. Or that my seat would be a little lower. But I love the display for the radio, XM Radio, Bluetooth. It is all touch screen and that was one of the primary things that I loved about the car. I am very pleased.

My wife and I was shopping for a new vehicle and really liked the gmc terrain .What was the biggest reason ? Well the sticker rated it 41 mpg highway. Canadian gallons is 4.55 litres . Ok I know that would be hard to get but come on when you get 20 and 21 mpg from 41 mpg there is something wrong here . So far cant say much against the rest of the vehicle except it is a pig on gas . I took it in to the dealer but was told that there is no check engine lite on so nothing they can do .What do I do from here ? Would I buy another one ? no not with the poor gas mileage it is giving .

i already have the terrain V6 3.0 264 HP 2012, its a nice car , its very comfort, have a hug space for you everyone in the family, cargo space is very nice, very comfort while driving in travelling, we used to travel alot for a long distance, minimum 500 KM & its very comfort. we live in Arabian gulf where temp there is 50 degree , & the car is really nice only thing i dont like is the performance, i used to compare it with my old car VW GTI , its better in the acceleration , i know its different kind of car & comparison is not fare , but its out of my hand :) anyway its a lovely car & i loved it so much thanks

We leased this vehicle in Sept 2012. Have about 6,000 miles on it now. My wife drives it to work 20 miles round trip. Part city/part HWY driving. AWD/4 cylinder engine. Overall averaging 21.5 MPG. Recent tank was almost all hwy miles, and barely broke 22 MPG. Not impressed. 4 cyl is very sluggish. Had I known this, I would have either gone with the 6-cylinder, or bought the CRV. Power drivers seat is not the most comfortable. Had a 2001 GMC YukonXL that was much more comfortable than this. Lots of room in 2nd row for my teenage kid. But the negatives outweigh the positives. Would not buy the 4 cylinder again.

I have been very happy with my 2012 Terrain. I love the body style and all of the comfortable options this vehicle has. Cars.com was a great resource that enabled me to find the vehicle that I was looking for.

We bought our Terrain a couple months ago.. just a little over 4,000 miles.. best gpm was 30.6 but average since purchase is 24.9 mpg. The 4 cly is a little sluggish getting in and out of traffic but is awesome on highway. It will cruize @ 75 with no strain and has ample passing power. Terrain is a Great looking vehicle. perfect for my wife. We got power driver seat which allows my bride to sit up higer for better road vision. I'm a big guy and the Terrain is just a little confining but I can still drive long trips comfortably. Both my bride and I are very pleased.

TO DEALER 3X. MISFIRES ON STARTING. INCONSISTANT PROBLEM. GETTING WORSE. CHECK ENGINE NOW ON. REMOTE START NOW FAILED. OVERALL IS COMFORTABLE, RIDES NICE, MILEAGE FAIR. TO DEALER TOMORROW. IF THEY CANNOT SOLVE, CONSIDERING LEMON LAW. MY FIRST AMERICAN CAR IN 20 YRS. LEASED CAR.

Overall favorable veiw of 2012 Terrain. Exterior and interior are good. Very smooth and comfortable ride, my 3 children enjoy riding in it. My only desappointment is after four fill up with E10 gas I am only getting a 24.7mpg average with a low of 24.3 and high of 25.8. I was "expecting" average of 30 to 32mpg. My primary purpose of this car is commuting to work 28 miles round trip each day 90% high way mileage.

i have just purchased a new 2012 terrain . my wife picked it out as a hot looking vehicle .now i just have 500 miles on it so not much to review at this time . I asked the salesperson what kind of mileage i could expect to get with it . first the vehicle is an all wheel drive with the 4 cyl engine which is rated at 30 m.p.g. highway and 25 city . Well we averaged 29.9 highway on the way home from milwaukee and it is averaging 25.8 around the city right now . I hope once the engine is broke in the mileage will increase .Our last truck was an 2500 chevrolet silverado and the mileage was about 15 m.p.g.so anything would be an improvement . will update this review in about 3 months when the terrain is broke in . Very happy with the vehicle at this point .only i miss the pickup truck for the convenience of throwing stuff in the back and not worrying about getting anything dirty . not so with the terrain .

This suv has good visibilty , energy, comfort ,rated very good in all the above, this Terrain drives tbe best in its class and very realiable and dependable. It has plenty of room for the grandkids when they are here and my husband and I. We are very happy with out choice.
