The latest Terrain has an uncomplicated cabin that draws inspiration from GMC vehicles. The cabin is straightforward to operate thanks to big dials, labels on the controls, and large dials. The gear shifter is one distinctive feature of the Terrain's interior. To change gears, choose the drive or reverse, and put the car in park, it makes use of a variety of push- and pull buttons. The Terrain's shoddy build quality and scratchy plastics prevent the SUV from feeling like an expensive choice.
For a small SUV, the Terrain's luggage space falls short of average. When the back seats are folded down, the space behind the second-row seats expands to 63.3 cu-ft. For further convenience when storing longer goods, the front passenger seat may be folded down. Inside the GMC Terrain, there is seating for five passengers. A leather-wrapped steering wheel and fabric upholstery are included as standard equipment on all versions. Taller people may sit in either row with ease, and the chairs are comfortable for prolonged trips. However, the tilted dash makes it difficult to see forward.
