TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM To make the
most of available traction on many road
surfaces, traction control measures and
compares the speed of your wheels. If it
senses one or more wheels starting to spin,
such as on a slippery surface, the system
applies individual brakes and manages
engine power to slow the wheel down and
maintain traction, so you can move forward
with a better sense of control.
ANTILOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS)
For confident stops in a variety of
conditions, every Terrain features
four-channel antilock brakes. When
the brakes are applied, ABS can detect
impending wheel lock-up, and then
pulse that wheel’s brake to prevent it.
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) An intelligent
AWD system is available for extra traction
and the ability to adapt to changing
road conditions. This system sends the
maximum amount of torque needed
and adjusts the torque as required to
help you maintain control. Thanks to
its efficient design and direct injection
engine technology, four-cylinder Terrain
models with All-Wheel Drive offer an EPA-
estimated 29 mpg highway.
FULLY INDEPENDENT SUSPENSION
For precise control and a high level of
refinement, GMC Terrain is engineered with
a four-wheel independent suspension.
As the name implies, each wheel can act
independently to maintain road contact,
which helps you stay in control. On the
highway, this suspension offers the best of
both worlds: a steady, smooth ride with a
precise feel for the road.
