The GMC Terrain is a mid-size crossover SUV. According to GM, it replaced the GMC Envoy, and Pontiac Torrent, which was sold in the same dealerships prior to GM dropping the Pontiac brand.[2] Like the Torrent, the Terrain is based on the Theta platform. The Terrain slots below the Acadia as GMC's smallest SUV.
The Terrain shares engineering with the 2010 Chevrolet Equinox.[3] While the two vehicles use the same platform and drivetrain, the Terrain's body panels and standard features differ from those of the Equinox.[1]
The 2010 Terrain debuted at the 2009 New York International Auto Show. Like the preceding Pontiac Torrent, the Terrain will be sold in Mexico.

[edit] Middle East
General Motors also uses the GMC Terrain marque as a rebadged Opel Antara in the Middle East,[4] that shares the same Theta platform. This vehicle is similar to the Saturn Vue and Chevrolet Captiva.
