    2024 GMC Canyon AT4X AEV Edition Unleashed

      Less than a Year after the Next-Generation Canyon was released, and we now have the ultimate premium off-road mid-size truck!!!

    QUOTE: “GMC is giving customers the ability to forge their own path within the premium off-roading space,” said Duncan Aldred, global vice president, Buick-GMC. “GMC Sierra LD and HD AT4X AEV Editions delivered what customers were looking for in the off-roading space and now we’re applying that same formula to the next-generation Canyon.”

    Welcome the 2024 Canyon AT4X AEV edition.

    AEV was first introduced in the 2023 GMC Sierra 1500 and now today GMC has completed covering the full GMC truck lineup with the AEV Edition brought to the Canyon, delivering premium, advanced and authentically capable trucks in North America.

    • Building off the strong AT4X foundation, AEV Edition takes capability even further
    • with additional 1.5-inch lift, 35-inch tires and upgraded hardware
    • Enhanced off-road capability matched with signature GMC premium appointments
    • 2024 Canyon also includes upgraded technology features across the lineup

    So what does GMC mean by taking the Canyon to the next level you ask, simple as GMC has pursued the goal of offering the most capable premium off-road focused mid-size truck in the segment. The Canyon AT4X AEV offers an assertive stance, enhanced hardware and further upgrades to the vehicle chassis that include the following:

    • 35-inch Goodyear Wrangler Territory MT tires with an additional AEV in-bed vertical spare tire mount
    • Updated front fascia and larger fender flares to enable larger, wider tracks and ultra-high, best in class 12.2-inch ground clearance1
    • 4.5-inch (114mm) factory-installed lift — 1.5-inch (38mm) more than the Canyon AT4X
    • Heavy-duty, AEV stamped-steel front and rear bumpers with heavy duty recovery points and winch capable front bumper
    • Five ultra-high strength, hot-stamped boron steel skid plates (positioned along the radiator, steering gear, transmission and transfer case, fuel tank and rear differential) for optimized underbody protection
    • The addition of three standard auxiliary control switches which enable the integration of off-road and overlanding accessories.
    • Exclusive AEV beadlock-capable Salta wheels
    • AEV branding across the vehicle, including on bumpers, embroidered head restraints and all-weather floor liners

    The 2024 Canyon AT4X AEV edition now has a 38.2 degree front approach angle.

    A 26.9 degree breakover angle and a 26 degree departure angle.

    Bumpers front and rear have been designed for the serious off-road enthusiast featuring heavy-duty cast recovery points and front winch capability as a dealer or 3rd party option.

    To quote the GMC press release in regards to advanced technology, "Canyon’s Baja drive mode — available exclusively on the Canyon AT4X and AT4X AEV Edition — has been enhanced to include a new launch control feature, which allows drivers to press the brake and accelerator pedals at the same time, and then release the brake pedal, resulting in improved acceleration on- and off-road. This smart launch control feature learns the driving surface and can adjust engine speed and torque accordingly to improve subsequent performance on future launches."

    All 2024 Canyons are built on GM's Ultifi platform allowing new features and software updates over time with OTA service.

    The Canyon 2024 is produced at GM's Wentzville Assembly in Wentzville Missouri. The Canyon AT4X AEV Edition is expected to be available for customer orders later this year.

    Today at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Cadillac unveiled the refreshed Cadillac CT5 sedan.  CT5 retail sales have been on an upswing of late, increasing over 35%.  In a time when sedan sales are stagnating or disappearing entirely, Cadillac's positive numbers have given hope that the luxury sedan market isn't quite dead yet. The refresh of the CT5 begins with the exterior. A new larger, bolder grille is flanked by new vertically stacked headlamps and Cadillac's sign

    Ford updates the 2024 F-150 with More Standard Power, More Hybrid Production, and a New Tailgate

    Tonight at an event ahead of the Detroit Auto Show, Ford unveiled the updated 2024 Ford F-150.

    • BMW new styling?   I SWEARI have since that face before!!! Oh yeah....    About a decade ago   Toyotas and BMWs        translation: I am not a fan.       
    • Lots of changes happened in my life and in my family's the last 3-4 months.  (I still dont want to talk about those changes)   But we CAN and SHALL discuss the changes with the car situations.  Old cars have come back.  New ones have joined. Some have left the scene.  And now we are a 3 car family.  I had to let go of the Acura. I had a little fender bender with it.  Nothing major, but as with the Impala SS, somebody ran into me and so I had to euthanize it.  OK...I didnt kill it.  But we traded it  in for a 2024 Honda Civic LX.     Just as with the Impala, way back in 2012, yet another female driver, (God bless these women drivers...) ran into my side. The Impala SS was the passenger front door. With the Acura, it was the driver's side passenger door.   I wasnt wanting to repair it, I had to do extensive maintenance work on it as well, so the monies spent on maintaing and repairing and calling insurances and all that, my wife and I decided that I would take over the Fusion, she gets herself a new car.   This happened mid-July sometime, when additional family drama started brewing again, on her side and on my side, and the decision to sell the restaurant also was made.   We finally got the Civic on Monday with 3 kilometers on the odometer and 3 days later she is up to 80.  Not much Id say.   What about the Mazda 3? Well, when we bought the Fusion, it was because we had given my then deadbeat brother-n-law, the youngest, my wife's Mazda 3.  So we needed to buy another car. Hence the Fusion.  He has since then become responsible and very hard working and he bought himself another car 3 years later.  We thought he traded it in but he had ALWAYS kept it as a reminder NOT to be a lazy ass person.   He drove it once in awhile as an appreciaition of what his sister and I did for him. And when the middle brother passed away in June, and we started grieving for the middle brother and when we mentioned that our daughter may need a car he surprised us by giving us our old car back.  Its in very very good condition, other than a few rust spots here and there.   So yeah...   New car.    Internal combustion.  No battery electric.  Maybe a BEV on the next car purchase when another woman driver rams my Fusion's passenger door...   I am NOT being hostile towards women drivers.  Just spittin' out facts... 
    • INTERIOR PHOTOS Front of cabin and console - simple in appearance, but assembly appears to be good Rear of cabin A partial view of the somewhat generous rear compartment over the (upright) rear seat showing the charging station These are the 2 areas at the front of the console where you can charge a couple of phones Side note:  It looks like I forgot to take a photo of the unique dashboard, so I've uploaded one from available images (credit to the cars sector of US News). Also, I did not hook up my music, so I'm not able to show you "choice" selections from my music collection. - - - - - END OF PHOTOS
    • EXTERIOR PHOTOS This is the vehicle's tall rump, also indicating dual motor It wasn't that hard to find the charging slot, but it wasn't that obvious, either This is the 1st of 2 charges and these stylized contraptions mean they're supercharging stations Upon turning it in, I took this photo ... au revoir
