The long-wheelbase Terraza is adorned otherwise by only a single strip of chrome down the side and six large windows, the after four tinted and dark, and a chrome-railed roof rack. The standard layout is four captain's chairs and a split/fold rear bench, nothing new here, with a power sliding door on the curb side and a second one optional on the left side. Unlike many another minivans, the Terraza tailgate is manually operated, unlocked by the key fob.
Terraza has at least a short-term exclusive on a standard independent long- and short-arm rear suspension with automatic load leveling, a system which may migrate to the other brands over time. But don't expect SUVesque off-road performance, because it has only 5.5 inches of ground clearance. It may sort of look like an SUV, but it isn't one. We call it a minivan, GM calls it a midvan (arguably the most accurate description), but no one would call it an SUV. It's more like an all-weather family transport unit with some flair.
The outside mirrors fold for parking in tight garages."
