    GMC leaked the above image and details of its new 2017 Terrain Nightfall Edition ahead of the New York Auto Show today. The blacked-out theme of the Nightfall is a popular one with GM Truck lovers. Most compact crossovers on the market are kept pretty plain and simple. Base model nobody buys, mid-trim level most do, and a high-end trim that is overly expensive with a rough-ride on super-low profile wheels. No automaker currently offers a special edition compact crossover with any personality of its own. Until now.

The Terrain is GMC's second-leading selling vehicle after the Sierra. The model also has two other positive aspects in the eyes of GM. Half of all Terrain buyers are women, and half of all Terrain buyers are new to the GMC brand. For a brand with a history of selling heavy-duty premium trucks to repeat buyers, a model like Terrain is hugely valuable. Duncan Aldred, vice president of GMC Sales and Marketing said of the new trim, "Terrain continues to attract new and style-conscious customers to GMC. The new Terrain Nightfall Edition adds another great-looking and well-equipped choice for this popular SUV – one that will stand out in a crowd.”

The new Nightfall Edition builds upon the new 2016 styling with the following enhancements:
-18-inch machine-faced aluminum wheels and gloss black spokes
- Charcoal grill with a gloss black surround and accents
- Gloss black front and rear fascia accents
- Gloss black rear license plate surround trim
- Gloss black outside mirrors and black luggage rails.

The 2017 Terrain Nightfall Edition will be offered on SLE-2 and SLT models with four exterior color options: Summit White, Onyx Black, Graphite Gray Metallic and Crimson Red Metallic. Look for it to arrive this fall.
