This Canyon gets its ability thanks to its tougher-stuff-tuned suspension, automatic electronic locking rear differential, hill descent control, and 31-inch tires. There are buttons and dials for most functions, and a hard button to bring up the home screen on the eight-inch centre touchscreen. That said, further accessing the phone, audio, navigation and other menus requires tapping the bottom of the screen. The 3.6L is a stout engine with strong acceleration, and the eight-speed automatic is a great fit to it. Four-wheel drive is activated by a dial, and in addition to 4High and 4Low, which should only be used on loose off-road surfaces, there’s also a 4Auto setting that can be activated on pavement. The steering is responsive, the brakes stop the truck confidently, and the ride is firm.
