America, meet the 2015 Canyon Nightfall Edition: a blacked-out, stylish truck equipped with a beast of an engine and exciting accessories to keep drivers safe and entertained.

The new truck will be available on SLE crew cab models, either 2WD or 4WD, in Onyx Black, according to a GM release.

Standard features found on the Canyon Nightfall Edition includes remote start, a polished exhaust tip, unique black grille, 18-inch aluminum wheels with painted inserts, black assist steps and a factory spray-in bedliner

If that's not enough for you, check out these stats: 200 horsepower and 27 mpg highway from a standard 2.5L I-4, and 305 horsepower and 26 mpg from an available 3.6L V-6. This means the Canyon will offer the segment's best horsepower and EPA-estimated fuel economy.

"The new Canyon Nightfall Edition expands the Canyon lineup and gives style-conscious customers another choice," said Duncan Aldred, vice president of GMC Sales and Marketing in a company statement. "Importantly, customers get the great looks of the Canyon Nightfall Edition and its unique content at a greater value than ordering the features separately."

GM says that the V-6 engine allows for a segment-leading 7,000-pound trailering rating as well.

The appearance of the truck is supposed to reflect customer preferences for personalization and features that support lifestyles of customers all over the country. Nearly 40 percent of the first orders for the Nightfall Edition include one selection from the extensive collection of accessories GMC developed for the truck, according to the automaker.

Accessories available for the Canyon includes the GearOn system to manage your cargo, bed protection, styling enhancements and trailering components, according to GM.

Other accessories include:

-Leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio controls

-Three-month trial of SiriusXM satellite radio

-Automatic locking rear differential, for 4WD models

-Rear-vision camera

-Eight-inch-diagonal Color Touch radio with GMC IntelliLink

-Three-month trial of OnStar with 4G LTE and its standard built-in Wi-Fi hotspot

-Two USB ports for charging located on the rear of the center console in addition another USB port inside the console

"The Canyon is a lifestyle enabler and its accessories lineup matches lifestyles of all types," said Aldred. "The accessories take their inspiration from how customers use their vehicle, and they are crafted cohesively with the team of designers and engineers."  

GM said that the Canyon will be available during the second quarter of 2015.
