What’s New?

The Terrain just got a major makeover for 2018, so this year’s model only features a few major changes. Adaptive cruise control and front pedestrian braking system are newly available active safety features, and the Surround Vision and Rear Vision Camera are now HD. Three new packages are being offered as well. The Black Edition package features 19-inch gloss black aluminum wheels, black accents and badging, and black grille elements. The Dark Accent package offers a slightly different array of darkened exterior features. The Chrome package offers a chrome grille, chrome mirror caps, and chrome door handle surround.

Exterior

Standard heated mirrors are ideal for cold-weather driving. A power programmable liftgate makes loading and unloading cargo a breeze.
