An Active Torque Control all-wheel-drive system pairs beautifully with this more powerful engine and the Traction Select System enables you to pick your drive mode on the go. Taking it one step further, the AT4 also includes Hill Descent Control with antilock braking and Hill Start Assist. Clearly, GMC is emboldening this SUV with all the tools it needs to conquer the most challenging terrain.
