2012 GMC Terrain consumer reviews

I love my new Merlot Jewel Terrain. I was debating between this and the Chevy equinox and I'm very happy with my decision. The options are awesome. Surprisingly spacious and I'm hooked on my XM radio which I got an excellent deal on. The hands free calling is such a great feature to have. The backup camera and the steering wheel options are so helpful and convenient. My only complaint is I wish the engine had a little more power. A nice surprise for me was the digital speedometer, I just love it. This is a great and fun car to drive.

have SLT 2 V 6 love the looks power and ride very happy!gas millage is OK awd and v 6 explains lower millage

We did our exhaustive research before buying a smaller suv. Drove several imports and loved the Nissan Rogue as we had a Nissan for years and loved it. Also had a Toyota and hated it. So we savd the American suv's for last as we have not had one for several years. Then we read about the Terrain, have a friend whom has one and finally drove one. Let me tell you Detroit is back!!!!!!!!!!Awesome suv, put's all the imports to shame, PERIOD!!! Rogue small and noisy, Rav4 tinny junk, Tuscon cheap, Kia sucked, Ford explorer, little and dated, VW Tiguan over priced, Forrester was no comparison, either was the Dodge journey. I stated 6 years ago to all my friends that when Detroit built a better vehicle I would buy one and the Terrain is it. The ride is awesome as conveniences, electronics, safety, fit and finish, versatility and averaging 31.3 mpg! We drive on eco setting and get 5mpg less than the aweful toyota corolla that we commuted with!!!For the extra cost of 12.00 per week? it's a no brainer and yes we commute 600 miles a week! But now in commfort and a 5 star safety rating. Don't beleive the posts of only 23mpg they are bogus. We have freinds that bought one last year and get 31mpg also, So we knew that they got great mileage before we shopped. American engineering is back in Detroit my friends and it's here to stay. All of the Chevy line we looked at were grat cars and the Cruz? I wanted one of them too! what a nice car. Imports are out of our garage for sure.

I wanted a car with good gas mileage. I was deciding between this and the Chevy Equinox. The Terrain is a better choice to me because of the interior and exterior. Everything else is very similar. I am very pleased with my purchase.

Wonderful vehicle to own and drive. Driven about 1000 miles and runs like a dream. Gas mileage seems very good and onstar with large screen is wonderful.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this car. It's comfortable and handles very nicely. It is also VERY peppy. I was a little worried going to a 4 cyl but am very pleased by the preformance of the Terrain. I'm not quite sure what the issue is w/ some of the previous reviews claiming low gas milage but mine on regular gas driving around town averages 26 mpg. E85 is about 21 mpg so it is actually cheaper in the long run to put normal gas in it. The car I traded in on my Terrain was a Lincon Navigator so I was worried about downgrading on the luxury but if I"m being honest, I like this better than my Navigator and I never thought I would say that. I miss some things such as the built in garage door opener and dual climate control but with the electronics in the car more then makes up for what I lost. And I seriously couldn't be happier with the gas milage...even with the new car payment and gas I am still saving money over what I was putting into my Navigator in fuel. It is also very quiet inside, surprisingly so. Would definately reccomend this car to others!!

I have owned many and love this SUV in every way. Would buy another when the time comes. The ride is very smooth more like a car. It is easier to get in and out of compared to others. I had a ford escape that I loved and gave to my husband. The terrain was to replace it and I am very happy. The worse SUV was the Honda CRV. Was horrible in the snow and living in the northeast I need a good car for the winter months

I bought a 2012 GMC Terrain SLE-2 and I love it! I feel like a 16 year old that just got his first car. The only thing I could even think about complaining about is the rear end. The back of the Terrain looks a little bit like a mini van, but I love everything else about it. I have 4 cyl. so it doesn't have a lot of power, but it has plenty of power for what I use it for. Go buy one!

I get a gmc terrain and is The best suv i have is very cool i was a sale man and i m drive a lot of cars and this Car is one of The best you guy's need to buy one is nice :)

I shopped around a lot before deciding on this vehicle. I chose the 2012 Terrain for the roomy interior and the tech. I am 6' 5" and this is by far the most comfortable crossover for my size. There is still room behind me in the backseat for an adult to ride comfortably. The 4 cyl. engine has plenty of power for my needs and the transmission shifts as smooth as glass. I custom ordered the SLT-1 and it arrived without any flaws. The tech all works seamlessly. The car sends me an e-mail every month for goodness sake. I like the confident look of the exterior design and get a lot of compliments. However, you have to remember to allow for the extra width of the fender flares in tight spots, since you can't really see them while drving. Other than that, in my opinion this is the best crossover for the money.
