2024 Model Redesign Year

The midsized three-row Acadia was redesigned for 2024, growing larger in nearly every dimension. The move puts it more in line with its mechanical near-twin, the Chevrolet Traverse, and brings increased passenger and cargo space, including a roomier third-row seat. The sole engine is a 328-hp, turbocharged four-cylinder that performs well, but sounds raspy compared to the previous V6. Fuel economy is just 20 mpg overall for our tested all-wheel-drive model. Handling is responsive for a good-sized SUV, the Acadia rides comfortably, and the cabin is quiet--other than when accelerating. Some drivers didn't find the flat-shaped front seats very comfortable.

The second row is quite roomy, but the third-row seat will be tight for adults. The vertically-oriented infotainment touchscreen is easy to read but the climate controls are too low. The optional Super Cruise active driving assistance system can keep the SUV in its lane, vary the speed according to traffic, and change lanes on its own.

2024-Present

2024 Model Redesign Year

The midsized, three-row GMC Acadia is redesigned for the 2024 model year, gaining a new engine, revamped interior, and evolutionary exterior updates. The sole engine is a 328-hp turbocharged four-cylinder, teamed with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The SUV can be had in front- and all-wheel-drive configurations. An off-road-focused AT4 trim brings all-terrain tires on 18-inch wheels, an elevated ride height, and unique tuning to the suspension and AWD system. The cabin has a rather minimalist design with a large instrument panel display and standard portrait-oriented, 15-inch touchscreen. The 2024 model has seating is for 7-passenger. 2025 seating can be configured for seven or eight passengers.

Maximum tow capacity is 5,000 pounds. The standard suite of active safety features includes AEB pedestrian and bicyclist detection, BSW, and RCTW. The Super Cruise active driving assistance system is available.

2017-2023

2017 Model Redesign Year

The new Acadia is shorter and 500 pounds lighter than the previous model. The ride is steady and composed, and handling is responsive. The most appropriate engine is the smooth 3.6-liter V6 that returned 19 mpg in our tests, which isn't a standout. A less powerful but still sound 2.5-liter four-cylinder is standard. This family-friendly three-row SUV is very quiet, the front seats are comfortable, and the infotainment system is easy to use. The outboard second-row seats can slide and tilt forward, even with a child seat in place.

But many luxury features, such as four-way adjustable lumbar, a power sunroof shade, and auto-up windows, are missing even on our high-end Denali version. Available safety features include forward collision warning with automatic braking, pedestrian detection, and blind spot warning. The 2020 model got a freshening, adding a turbo engine and a nine-speed automatic replaces the previous six-speed unit. The Acadia also gets a new infotainment system and a push-button gear selector. FCW, AEB, BSW and rear cross traffic warning are standard for 2022. Also, the base four-cylinder engine has been dropped.

2007-2016

2007 Model Redesign Year

The Acadia is a car-based SUV with three rows of seats and seating for seven or eight, depending upon the configuration of the second row. It uses a 275-horsepower 3.6-liter V6 engine, mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. These combine to form a smooth and refined powertrain, though the transmission is sometimes reluctant to downshift. Later versions have improved transmission tuning. Expect about 16 mpg overall. The Acadia is available with front- or all-wheel drive.

The ride is comfortable, handling is responsive and the interior is quiet. The third-row seats are roomy enough to accommodate three adults, especially when the second row is moved forward. A 2013 redesign brought an upgraded interior with an improved infotainment system and a new center airbag between the front seats.
