Redesigned for 2024, the GMC Acadia grew in size to be more comparable with the Chevrolet Traverse with which it shares an underlying platform. After such a major overhaul, there are few changes with the three-row SUV for 2025. The entry-level Elevation trim now seats eight with a standard second-row bench seat (versus the previously standard seven with captain’s chairs) although a new Elevation Premium Package reverts that trim back to second-row captain’s chairs and adds a power-adjustable front passenger seat, 20-inch wheels and synthetic leather upholstery for $2,535.

Beyond those widely available features, the Acadia also includes three GM-exclusive bits of safety tech: Buckle to Drive, which prevents the vehicle from being shifted out of Park until the driver’s seat belt is fastened; Teen Driver, which lets parents limit or disable certain vehicle functions when a specific key is used to start the car; and Safety Alert Seat, which vibrates the sides of the entire driver’s seat bottom cushion to warn them of the direction of potential hazards.

Engine and MPG

A 328-horsepower, turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder generating 326 pounds-feet of torque powers every Acadia; it’s paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard on the entry-level Elevation and range-topping Denali trims, with AWD available for $2,000 (AWD is standard on the off-road-oriented AT4). The front-drive Acadia returns an EPA-rated 20/27/23 mpg city/highway/combined; AWD is rated at 19/24/21 mpg.
