These Are the 5 Most Popular GMC Models: Do You Know Why?

When it comes to popularity, everyone has an opinion. Who’s popular? Why? Is being popular a good thing? Some might say that popularity is fleeting and that it’s a social construct that allows those with money, good looks, or other desirable assets to wield power over the rest. Others might say popularity is a good thing because it allows those with talent to rise to the top. When it comes to cars, popularity is not so different, but it does tend to carry more weight. When a vehicle is popular, there are more factors that come into play––style and design, performance, tech features, safety ratings, and more.

This type of popularity depends on the quality of a vehicle rather than just looks alone. That’s why when you visit a GMC dealer like us, you’ll see these five most popular models on the lot. GMC’s vehicles are known for being driver-friendly, with plenty of modern style and tech for any driver. So, what specifically is it about these five models that always manage to capture our attention?

#1 – GMC Sierra 1500

This highly customizable pickup has been popular ever since its introduction to the GMC family. New or used, the GMC Sierra 1500 is incredibly versatile, and one of the benefits of its flexibility is that you may score a used Sierra 1500 with maxed-out features. If you buy new, you’re able to configure the cab, truck bed, powertrain, and trim level to your exact tastes, whether you’re looking for a work truck or something more luxurious for your daily commute.

One of the reasons the Sierra 1500 has remained on the list of best-selling vehicles is that it has one of the highest tow ratings available on the market. If you’re looking for something that can haul and tow from job site to job site or from campground to campground, you won’t find much competition for the GMC Sierra 1500. Newer models can tow over 13,000 lbs, giving you plenty to work with as you tow trailers, campers, recreational vehicles, and the like. The inside can be outfitted with luxurious leather and a massive infotainment center, which means you can let the truck do the heavy lifting while you sit back and enjoy the ride.

#2 – GMC Terrain

If you’re looking for a unique compact SUV, the GMC Terrain is an excellent option. Its appearance does not conjure images of running errands or packing it full of children for the daily trek to school. Rather, its bold lines and wide stance leave you wanting to go off-road adventuring. That being said, one of the reasons the GMC Terrain is so popular is that its beefy looks hide a spacious interior, with plenty of room for groceries, camping equipment, or passengers. Many compact SUVs only offer cramped seating, so the GMC Terrain definitely gains popularity points for this necessary feature.

If you’ve been eyeing our inventory, give us a call to see if we have a GMC Terrain on hand that can be test-driven. You’ll enjoy the extra room to stretch out in and see the difference it makes when there’s additional passenger and storage space. Sometimes, it’s the things you don’t notice until you’re given a better option that makes a popular vehicle shine. The GMC Terrain is just such a vehicle, and you’ll revel in its luxurious spaciousness as well as its modern tech features.

#3 – GMC Yukon

Do you need something larger than a compact SUV? Maybe you’ve been looking for something for a larger family or a vehicle that can switch from commuter to camper in a matter of minutes. No matter your reason for needing a full-size SUV, the GMC Yukon is one of the most popular choices on the market. Why? Because it’s luxurious and spacious, with additional room available if you go with the longer wheelbase Yukon XL model. You can also go with a diesel engine instead of a gasoline engine, should you wish––the gasoline engine is a V8, while the diesel option is a turbocharged inline-six.

We know why the Yukon is such a popular model––who can resist a powerful, spacious, and luxurious vehicle? It combines the best features of any SUV, resulting in a stunning, incredibly comfortable vehicle for road trips, field trips, camping trips, and more. This is one model you have to see to believe, so if you run across one, take a peek and imagine what it would be like to ride in the lap of such luxury. Wouldn’t you like to take the wheel and find out for yourself just how good it feels to command such power?

#4 – GMC Acadia

Do you need an SUV for the family but have your heart set on a truck? There’s a GMC just for you––the ever-popular Acadia. This three-row SUV drives like a dream, and as a bonus, the front styling makes it look like a truck. Inspired style and design meld together in a quietly powerful vehicle for drivers who need more seating but want to feel like they’re driving something that can still get down and dirty. We sometimes find it challenging to keep this model in stock due to the unique look of the GMC Acadia and its overall performance. If you decide you want to get in the driver’s seat of the GMC Acadia, you’ll find it incredibly comfortable, with plenty of amenities and updated necessities to make things interesting.

Along with its impressive drivability and styling, the GMC Acadia garners additional popularity points for its bold coloring, navigation capabilities, and standard luxury features. This SUV stands out in the best way possible, as any GMC dealer will tell you. People are drawn to it for many reasons other than its good looks and stellar performance, but you’ll have to drive one yourself before it gives up all its secrets. Intrigued? Join the club.

#5 – GMC Canyon

Are you looking for a pickup that’s more like an agile predator than a lumbering beast of burden? Check out the midsize GMC Canyon. Every trim of this truck is designed for adventure. Whether you choose the Elevation or the AT4X, you’ll experience nimble movement, raw power, and a whole lot of fun.

Home DIY projects, tailgate parties, and mudding are a cinch when you’ve got the GMC Canyon at your side.
This popular midsize pickup is a favorite among drivers who want to go off-roading on the weekends but need something more practical during the week. Due to its high-class interior, up-to-date tech, and staying power, the GMC Canyon is a popular choice for city dwellers and suburbanites alike. Remember, you can have it all with the GMC Canyon.
