More Power. More Choices. More Truck

Canyon’s big news for 2009? There’s now a muscular 300 hp Vortec 5.3L V8 available on Extended Cab and Crew Cab models. If efficiency tops ultimate power on your priority list, Canyon’s standard 185 hp 2.9L Vortec I-4 consumes just 8.4 L/100 km on the highway.** There’s also a 239 hp 3.7L Vortec I-5 that delivers an excellent combination of performance and fuel efficiency.

Canyon’s standard StabiliTrak electronic stability control system constantly monitors for lateral skids. When it detects one, it automatically applies one or more of the truck’s brakes to help restore steering control. It’s a breakthrough safety technology feature.

For a kind of handling you’ve never experienced before in a pickup, select the new-for-2009 ZQ8 Sport Suspension package. You get a lowered stance, low-profile 18-inch tires, gorgeous Midnight Silver aluminum wheels and a colour-keyed grille surround. It’s the perfect complement to the available 300 hp Vortec 5.3L V8.

With standard features like substantial all-season tires, anti-lock braking system (ABS) and traction control, Canyon makes the most of the available grip on slippery surfaces. There’s also an available Insta-Trac 4-wheel drive system with the convenience of dash-mounted electronic controls.

The Canyon cabin is all about space, comfort and versatility. Extended Cabs offer seating for five with dual fold-up rear jump seats, while Crew Cabs with the available 60/40 divided front bench seat can handle up to six. Best of all, amenities like air conditioning, cruise control and a tilt steering column are all standard equipment.

Canyon is also the only mid-size pickup to offer the confidence of OnStar, the world’s most comprehensive in-vehicle security, communications and diagnostics system.† OnStar is available 24/7 to unlock your doors, dispatch emergency services, send Roadside Assistance or provide a host of other services.
