TRACTION SELECT

The GMC Terrain small SUV is engineered to meet the challenges drivers face every day – from various road surfaces to unexpected conditions. Advanced technology such as the Traction Select system allows you to switch between drive modes to make real-time adjustments based on those ever-changing driving situations.

Front Wheel Drive (FWD) models feature the following modes:

  • Normal/Tour: Optimized for everyday driving conditions
  • Rain/Snow: Lessens chance of wheel slippage in low traction driving conditions

 

All-Wheel Drive (AWD) models feature the following modes:

  • FWD: Improves fuel economy2 in normal/everyday driving conditions by mechanically disconnecting the rear axle and eliminating the drag it causes
  • AWD: Actively sends power to the front and rear wheels to maximize traction on dry, wet or snow/ice-covered roads
  • Off-Road: Adjusts AWD system, traction control and stability control to improve traction and driving dynamics on dirt, gravel and sand

SAFETY

The Terrain offers an available suite of intuitive driver-assist and safety technologies – so you can move with confidence in any direction.

Safety features are no substitute for the driver’s responsibility to operate the vehicle in a safe manner. The driver should remain attentive to traffic, surroundings and road conditions at all times. Read the vehicle’s Owner’s Manual for important feature limitations and information.

Available Low Speed Forward Automatic Braking

This camera-based system can help reduce the severity of some front-end crashes at low speeds by automatically braking for an imminent collision with a detected vehicle. At very low speeds, the system may even help to avoid the collision altogether.

Available Side Blind Zone Alert with Lane Change Alert

Side Blind Zone Alert uses sensors to monitor blind spots and alerts you with visual warnings in your side mirrors. Lane Change Alert works in tandem and uses long-range radar to help detect and warn you of fast-approaching traffic in the next lane.

Available Safety Alert Seat

Seat vibrations alert the driver of potential traffic danger using directional vibration pulses within the seat cushion, relaying inputs from a number of available advanced safety technologies including Forward Collision Alert and Lane Keep Assist.

Available Rear Park Assist

Ultrasonic sensors help you avoid objects while in reverse. An obstacle is indicated by audible beeps, and the beeps get faster as the obstacle gets closer.

Available Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning

Provides brief gentle steering wheel inputs to help you avoid crashes due to unintentionally drifting out of your lane when you are not actively steering and your turn signal is not activated.

Available Rear Cross Traffic Alert

Radar sensors monitor about 65 feet to the sides and rear of the vehicle and use the Rear Vision Camera and available Safety Alert Seat to help warn you of approaching cross traffic while in reverse.

CONNECTIVITY
