GMC is unveiling the Canyon AT4 OVRLANDX Concept today at Overland Expo Mountain West 2021.

The concept truck is a collection of overlanding-focused upgrades designed to create the ultimate GMC Canyon for off-road adventures. It features a laundry list of upgrades with a common purpose- drive anywhere & camp anywhere.

The purpose-built Canyon is based on the AT4 trim level and then taken to the extreme. The truck has been lifted, the suspension widened, the underbody reinforced, and the exterior equipped with the latest and greatest off-road gear. AEV wheels, bumper, and other parts are a big plus to the OVRLANDX Concept and better yet, are available for sale.

The overall theme with the Canyon AT4 OVRLANDX Concept truck is not so much that it’s a “concept” but more a practical demonstration of the level of customization you could complete on your own mid-size GMC today. Sure, there are one-off parts and several items you’d have a hard time replicating like the fender flares and bumper with task lighting.. but everything else seems to come out of GM’s parts bin or straight out of the aftermarket community.

The irony is that with features like Multimatic DSSV shocks and electronically locking front and rear diffs, this truck is closer to a Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 than an off-the-shelf GMC Canyon. Colorado ZR2 owners have been creating trucks like this for years with help from the aftermarket overland community, so it’s nice to see GMC get in the game.

Rarely does GM make a concept “just because”, so take the OVRLANDX as a preview of features to come down the line in the near future.
