So, more automakers are jumping on the bandwagon and showcasing what could be with interesting concepts and aftermarket accessories at this year’s Overland Expo Mountain West 2021 where GMC is showcasing its Canyon AT4 OverlandX Concept. GMC starts with the Canyon AT4, which has a base price of $38,400, and goes from there, adding in-truck and off-road accessories to make this a truck fit for a survivalist. In terms of the go-anywhere accessories, you’re looking at: - Factory-lifted, wide off-road chassis with enhanced underbody coverage - Off-road rocker panel protectors - Cast-iron control arms - Heavy-duty front bumper with winch - Integrated front recovery points - Front and rear electronic locking differentials - Wheel flares with integrated task lamps - Multimatic DSSV dampers - Spare tire swivel mount - Guy lines for protecting the windshield from low-hanging branches - 33-inch BFGoodrich KM3 Mud-Terrain tires on 17-inch AEV Crestone wheels This means the truck would have a 10-inch ground clearance and could ford up to 32.1 inches of water. ![GMC Canyon AT4 OverlandX]() With more than 20 premium off-roading features, the GMC Canyon AT4 OVRLANDX concept was designed to be everything an overlanding enthusiast needs. Confident capability comes from features like the truck’s heavy-duty front bumper with winch, front and rear electronic locking differentials, and 33-inch BFGoodrich KM3 Mud-Terrain tires, enabling a 27.7-degree approach angle and 10.0 inches of ground clearance. For longer adventures, drivers could enjoy the convenience of features like a camp kitchen, topper-mounted tent and truck bed storage system.
