The 2026 GMC Canyon is engineered for real capability. It's rated for up to 7,700 lbs of maximum trailering capacity and comes standard with a trailer hitch receiver-equipment that competitors may charge extra for.

Standard equipment includes a locking rear differential, front tow hooks, all-terrain tires, and an integrated Trailering App within the vehicle to help you manage towing tasks. Available upgrades include 4-wheel drive, an Off-Road Suspension Package, and Rocker Protection for enhanced durability on rough terrain.

Whether you're hauling equipment around Chippewa Falls or towing a camper for a Wisconsin weekend getaway, the Canyon delivers the strongest capability story in its class. Learn more by calling (715) 833-0444 or visiting Markquart Motors.
