Terra4's aerodynamic cab up and forward architecture is the foundation for superior sight lines and a spacious interior that is finished in leather and brushed metal trim accents. Soft glow analog gauges represent precision and complement the oversized controls for better sight and feel. "I guarantee you've never seen anything like this," said Zipfel. "We're hitting a sweet spot here where function meets social responsibility, and it's a stylish statement as well."
LINEAGE
The Terra4 continues the story begun by GMC's two most recent concepts — the Terradyne professional grade pickup truck, and the sporty, versatile Terracross crossover vehicle.
"In size, looks, and market appeal, Terra4 fits right between those two," said Zipfel. "This concept makes the idea of 'professional grade' more clear — functional, comfortable and versatile.
"Terradyne and Terracross were experiments to see where we could go with various ideas about interior space and the functionality of openings," said Zipfel, who led both projects.
EXTERIOR
"This continues the legacy of several things we first tried on the Terradyne," said Zipfel. "It has the cab-up-and-forward architecture for improved sight lines and optimal use of interior space."
