GMC Jimmy last produced in 2001 is now coming back in 2026 with all new design and modern technology. Here’s what we know about it:
2026 GMC Jimmy Exterior Design
Exterior design is the first thing we discuss in any review because it gives you first impression. 2026 GMC Jimmy is going to feature bold multi-slot grille, and a muscular bumper which showcase its off-roading look. It will have C-shaped headlights and boxy design maintaining its aura.
It is likely to feature 18-inch alloy wheels with 33-inch all-terrain tires. At the rear we can see LED taillights and a tailgate-mounted spare tire for enhanced off-roading look.
Performance and Engine Options
Best part of 2026 GMC Jimmy is that it will be available in multiple powertrains along with 4×4 drive system. Base model engine is going to be 2.7L turbocharged 4-cylinder which i assume produce 315 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque. this performance i feel impressive considering a comeback of an off-roader.
Next, we are going to have 3.6L V6 engine paired with 10-speed automatic transmission. as per my understanding it will produce impressive 355 horsepower and 384 lb-ft of torque.
Exciting part is both of these engines going to have 4×4 drive along with drive modes like mud, sand, and snow. it will have ground clearance of 10.5 inch and 37-degree approach angle. other features include hill descent control, and skid plates.
2026 GMC Jimmy Interior
As per 2026 GMC Jimmy’s renderings we can speculate that it is likely to feature modern tech like 2.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a 13.4-inch touchscreen infotainment system featuring Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and built-in Google services.
I personally like the idea of adventure ready cabin, featuring soft-touch materials, durable rubberized surfaces, and waterproof upholstery. Front two seats going to have ventilation and heating feature while second row is going to have plenty of legroom. enough to cater comfort to 6ft tall passenger.
Insider told us that with rear seats folded we can get upto 65 cubic feet of cargo space.
Other key interior features include:
- Bose premium audio system
- Wireless charging and multiple USB-C ports
- Panoramic sunroof for an open-air experience
- 360-degree camera system for enhanced visibility on the trails
