GMC has unveiled a new concept truck, the Canyon AT4 OVRLANDX, which it says shows how the truck’s off-road capability “could be customized for an overlanding enthusiast.”

The company introduced the AT4 off-road-ready trim line on the full-size Sierra pickup in 2019, and has since expanded it across all GMC trucks and SUVs.

The dictionary-deficient OVRLANDX includes a factory lift kit, wide off-road chassis, off-road rocker panel protectors, cast iron control arms, integrated recovery points, heavy-duty front bumper with winch, electronic front and rear locking differentials, wheel flares with integrated lamps, Multimatic DSSV dampers, guy lines for windshield protection from overhead branches, and a swivel-mounted spare tire that can be moved as needed to access the tailgate.

The truck is equipped with a stock 3.6L V6 and eight-speed transmission, and wears 17-inch AEV Crestone wheels with 33-inch BF Goodrich KM3 mud-terrain tires. It has a 27.7-degree approach angle, and ground clearance of 254 mm (10 inches).

Other add-ons include a stainless steel bed cap, tent with awning, jerry cans for gasoline and water, traction boards, cooler, kitchenette, AVE rear bumper, drawer-style bed storage system, and a solar panel.

“We wanted to showcase GMC Canyon with this concept, and punctuate GMC’s commitment to premium, off-road-capable vehicles,” said Duncan Aldred, global vice-president of Buick and GMC. “Consumer reaction to this concept’s design will help us further serve the growing market of buyers leading authentic outdoor lifestyles.”
