General Motors Corporation, the home for rebadged Chevrolet trucks is preparing to increase its lineup suddenly with a compact car aimed at young buyers. It�s expected that General Motors Corporation will bring the GMC Granite to market in 2013. The Granite has its front passenger seat pivoted up and toward the console. You can even transport a bicycle without removing its front tire, when the seat is up. GM gave away the turbocharged concept, the upgrade on the Chevrolet Cruze.
GMC’s future products for the 2011-13 years are:
Terrain: In 2012, this five-seat crossover may get a high-end Denali version model. A freshening will come in the 2013 model and a hybrid version will be launched in 2014.

Acadia: In 2012, this model gets a freshening with a 3.0-liter V6 engine instead of its current 3.6-liter version.

Yukon, Yukon XL: General Motors has decided to introduce a truck-based Yukon SUV, instead of putting the vehicle on its Lambda crossover platform. The truck based Yukon model will be launched in 2014, which might also share some sheet metal with Sierra to reduce costs.
Until that time, GM is planning to upgrade the Yukon’s two-mode hybrid to a four-mode version, to improve efficiency in a wider range of driving situations.

Canyon: General Motors will stop its working in Shreveport, La., by June 2012, thus stopping the production of Canyon. There will not be any plan to reintroduce this model at least for a couple of years.
GM will be selling the Canyon�s sibling, Chevrolet Colorado outside United States, and that vehicle would come here. But GM is planning for a smaller design.
