The 2023 GMC Canyon Denali has been confirmed for the following year. According to reports, the upcoming mid-size pickup will include numerous novelties. The Canyon Denali test mule wearing full camouflage has been spotted on the roads. It has a more appealing appearance than the base model, with a highly stylish front end, rebuilt architecture, new motor, and exceptional comfort for all occupants.
The most interesting news is that the powerplant will be a 2.7-liter turbo-four with 310 horsepower and an astonishing torque of 348 lb-ft. The GMC Canyon Denali should come in the second half of the year, so here is everything we know so far.
GMC Canyon Denali Engine Specs
The current model comes with two engine options: a 3.6-liter V6 and a 2.8-liter turbodiesel. However, for 2023 GMC Canyon Denali will include GM’s recent 2.7-liter turbo-four gasoline variant. This engine is capable of developing 310 horsepower and 348 lb-ft of torque.
This powertrain option comes with a 10-speed automatic transmission, using either standard RWD or an optional 4WD system. We are waiting to hear official details, but it will be the best Canyon pickup so far, no doubt about it.
Interior Changes
The interior layout of the 2023 GMC Canyon Denali will remain unchanged from the base model. In general, there will be enough space inside to seat five passengers. The spy shot of the interior is available, and we’ve seen a glimpse of the new design.
The entire dash is not visible, and it’s difficult to foresee what changes are made under it. We anticipate that the refreshed cabin will have higher-quality materials and a relatively bigger infotainment system than the base model. Naturally, distinctive Denali elements such as the “Denali” emblem on the steering wheel are available. As the range-topping trim level, Canyon Denali will offer lots of standard features and it is a premium cabin design with a high level of comfort.
Exterior Redesign
The all-new 2023 GMC Canyon Denali has been spotted with heavy camo. As far as we can tell, the next truck will be full of surprises. The Canyon Denali, like the base model, will have a new design language and will ride on a modified edition of the GMT-31XX architecture.
Of course, it stands out in the front with an attractive chrome grille, LED headlights, and redesigned hood. The rest of the bodywork, including the wheels, should be wearing more chrome. That means it will have a more luxurious appearance than before.
2023 GMC Canyon Release Date, Price
The automaker has not yet revealed the price or delivery date of the 2023 GMC Canyon Denali. In any case, many people believe the new truck will arrive in the last quarter of 2022.
In terms of pricing, we don’t expect the new model will be considerably more expensive than the present model, which costs roughly $43,000. Honda Ridgeline Black Edition and Toyota Tacoma Limited will be the most likely rivals in 2023.
