Thanks to GM order guides, we now know that the GMC Canyon is getting all kinds of changes and updates for the 2017 model year — the third year of the second-generation model.


Inside, the 2017 Canyon does away with the IO4 IntelliLink infotainment system with the 4.2-inch diagonal color display. In its place is the new IOB AM/FM stereo with IntelliLink and 7-inch diagonal Color Touch Screen. In addition, all 2017 Canyon models gain the Teen Driver Mode as standard equipment, while wireless cell phone charging (for compatible devices) and a heated steering wheel are added as standard equipment on the new Denali trim.


That does it for 2017 GMC Canyon updates and changes, which are somewhat similar to those in store for its platform mate, the 2017 Chevrolet Colorado. Though we didn’t get some of the features we were hoping to see, there is always 2018.
