So far over 22k trouble-free miles on my ‘18 diesel since last May with an overall hand-calculated average of 40.4 mpg at a 75% Highway/25% City split. Have zero issues passing people at highway speeds even when loaded up with people and/or cargo (especially through the mountains), and still easily obtain low to mid 40 mpg while cruising at 75 mph. Best tankful to date is 48.6 mpg poking along at 72 mph during one of the multiple road trips we take annually, but the most impressive result was an almost 3,500 mile trip last summer from Ohio to Florida and back with the Terrain loaded up to 4,700# GVW with us and all of our stuff (Cat Scale verified), cruising at 75 mph the entire trip with the AC blasting for comfort, and still managed a 41 mpg average when it was over.

But, those mpg numbers are close enough to my VW diesel that it almost makes up for it. Still, if given the opportunity, I would certainly get the diesel over the gas version any day.

My wife's 1.6 AWD Ecoboost Escape get's 37mpg on the highway during summer months with winter tires still installed and 4-people in the vehicle. We live in Alaska and this through very hilly terrain. Our best on level ground and a warm day was 42mpg for about 100 miles - including tailwind :-) However, before this Escape was broken-in (not talking about 800 mile break-in), it would only get a mix of 22 mpg (27 mpg last winter with 60% city driving). Somewhere around the 8-10k mile mark is when it seemed to have more power and became much more efficient. I wonder what these GM diesel's will get once broken-in? I bet people will se around 45-50 mpg on the highway.

I've been looking around for an eventual replacement for my Acura TSX sedan - wanting something with a hatch and AWD. I'm considering small SUVs but also now intrigued by some wagon models, but not luxury ones. Besides Subarus, there is the Golf Alltrak and Buick Regal TourX. It's interesting that the Golf Alltrak has about the same cargo room as this Terrain with seats up and down. Sure, the rear seat leg room might be a bit tighter. But why drive a large vehicle if it doesn't do anything for you. Some may like the view and actually use the extra ground clearance at times, including me, but 99%+ of the time being on the road, I would prefer the better handling of a car, considering I'm coming from the sporty Acura. Not saying this Terrain or SUVs are bad, just struggling trying to find something that I'm happy driving to work 30 miles each way that can also hold my stuff when I go camping.

The energy density of diesel fuel is about 23% greater than gasoline, so when you compare similar diesel/gas fuel economies...you'll typically note that the diesels are that 23% better. There's no real magic with diesels. You trade the faster, higher revving combustion (typically requiring spark ignition control, though that's finally starting to change with HCCI stuff) of a shorter carbon, lower-energy-density hydrocarbon for the slower, lower revving combustion that works uses high pressures to induce ignition without a spark that uses the longer carbon, higher-energy-density hydrocarbon of diesel. You could go even farther in the long chain direction with fuel oil, wax, and coal (those latter ones would almost certainly have to be external combustion, aka boiler, engines), or in the short chain direction (propane and natural gas). These different fuels burn at different rates and temperatures and result in different emissions byproducts that have different "pros and cons" on the environment and human health. That's the plain truth. I do wish diesel fuel economy wasn't treated like magic, because it's not.

GMC is an incredible business that mints billions of dollars in profit a year. As you just pointed out, the engineering is minimal and people love buying it. GMC and Chevy Truck are the most important things GM has. Now you know.

GMC also serves as a premium truck brand for Cadillac dealerships so they can sell and get in on the lucrative pickup truck business.

This has got to be one of the worlds worst toilets. Its garbage. Who would be so ignorant to buy this roach? GM just cannot build anything but junk.

There's absolutely zero need for this wimpy diesel to be in this vehicle. It doesn't even have the best towing capability in its engine lineup. Plus you'll more than likely never recoup to cost of the diesel engine, seeing as diesel is more expensive than gasoline in most areas.

Diesels are not for grocery runs, more for people that do longer distant driving, that would be the only need for this SUV. One advantage I've found is it's a treat not to have to fill the tank so often , especially in inclement weather (VW TDI owner). One main advantage is a potential for a far greater engine life and there is where you may, might, maybe ,(HEH HEH) recoup your investment. Diesel fuel is more expensive but diesels are more efficient so that is a wash. I could be interested in this SUV if it had a bigger diesel and you didn't have to get a fully loaded version just to get the diesel engine. And get rid of the pushbutton transmission ...jeez, wasn't that something Mercury tried in the early 60's....nobody wants that. I think GMC really needs to rethink a few things.

tiny turbo = no go much rather have a bigger motor that's not running at 100 % capacity all the time .plus you get better real world mpg

0-60 = 9.9 NOPE NOPE NOPE lol good luck merging lmaooo but that brake distance was nice

Keye T only Americans need a 0-60 time of less than 10 seconds in order to merge onto a highway.
@will29936 жыл бұрын
You don't even need that.. only 15 years ago faster than 13 or so seconds was perfectly acceptable
@JakeDrives16 жыл бұрын
It's a diesel, it makes it's power differently. more usable in the real world than a turbo gas motor. the 9.9 second figure is looong but how often are you pedal to the floor 0-60 in a Terrain? .. I do however believe that someone SHOULD make a tune for this thing asap. GM has a bad habit of electronically sapping the life out of their vehicles. I'd still blow people's doors off in it though lol.

JakeDrives I don't expect anyone t floor it, but if it's that slow with the pedal to the floor, imagine just a simple pass on the Highway would be agonizing
