OAKES GMC • 3200 MAIN STREET, KANSAS CITY, MO • PROFESSIONAL GRADE COMPACT CROSSOVER
Kansas City’s roads demand a crossover that can handle downtown congestion, suburban arterials, and highway runs equally well. The 2027 GMC Terrain delivers on all three — a compact Professional Grade crossover with technology that rivals larger vehicles, a turbocharged powertrain tuned for city responsiveness, and available AWD for Kansas City’s variable seasonal conditions. Four distinct trim levels, from the technology-forward Elevation to the Denali with available Super Cruise, give every Kansas City buyer a specific configuration built for the way they actually drive.
On the Denali trim, Super Cruise uses precision LiDAR map data and driver attention monitoring to enable genuine hands-free driving on over 400,000 miles of compatible North American highways — including every major interstate through the Kansas City metro. It’s available in a compact crossover, and only GMC offers it.
Every 2027 Terrain comes with GMC’s Pro Safety+ suite: Forward Collision Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Front Pedestrian Braking, and Following Distance Indicator. It’s not an option package — it’s the baseline.
Kansas City winters are unpredictable. The Terrain’s available AWD system continuously monitors road conditions and redistributes torque to maintain traction on icy KC streets, wet I-435 ramps, and winter-affected suburban roads — without requiring any driver input.
Three trim levels, each with a clear buyer in mind — from the tech-equipped Elevation perfect for the Kansas City commuter to the Denali that redefines what a compact crossover premium experience looks like:
The Everyday Terrain
All-Terrain Capability
Premium Terrain
The 2027 Terrain is powered by a 1.5L Turbocharged 4-cylinder engine delivering 175 horsepower and 203 lb-ft of torque through a smooth CVT transmission. It’s engineered for the Kansas City driver’s reality: responsive enough for I-70 on-ramp acceleration, efficient enough for the Northland commute, and confident in both FWD and available AWD configurations. An EPA-estimated 28 MPG highway in FWD configuration makes daily driving genuinely economical for KC professionals who cover serious mileage.
The turbocharged 1.5L delivers its torque peak at low RPM.
That low-end torque delivery is exactly what stop-and-go Kansas City traffic rewards — confident acceleration off the line without the fuel penalty of a larger displacement engine. For the driver who runs the Country Club Plaza to the Crossroads to the Northland on the same day, the Terrain’s powertrain is calibrated for that reality.
