New Canyon vs. Tacoma: Performance

Performance is non-negotiable when it comes to a truck, and the 2023 GMC Canyon truly outshines the Toyota Tacoma in this aspect. Despite only having one engine option, the GMC truck is more power than both of Tacoma’s base 2.7L 4-cylinder engine and an available V6 engine. With Canyon’s 2.7L high-output engine, you’re enjoying a blend of power and best-in-class torque. If you are looking to hit the trails, the Canyon features up to 10.7 inches of ground clearance on the ATX4 and a maximum towing capacity of 7,700 pounds that will come in handy. On the other hand, the Tacoma’s towing power is nowhere near that level. Compare the Toyota Tacoma vs. GMC Canyon standard engine specs here:
