The GMC all-new 2017 Acadia is a reimagined midsize crossover designed to offer great versatility and refinement, with more advanced safety technologies.
The new Acadia offers more-efficient powertrains, while continuing to offer three rows of seating on most models. Depending on the model, Acadia is available with five-, six- or seven-passenger seating, while offering greater maneuverability than the first-generation model.
A new, 2.5L engine is standard, offering an EPA-estimated 26 mpg on the highway for FWD models. A new, available 3.6L V-6 engine is more powerful and efficient, while offering 4,000 pounds estimated trailering capability. It's estimated at 310 horsepower and EPA-estimated at 25 mpg highway.
Both of the Acadia's new engines feature direct injection and variable valve timing, and both are mated to six-speed automatic transmissions and an electronically controlled drive mode selector.
The 2017 Acadia builds on a legacy of intuitive functionality, with new features such as a split-folding second-row seat that improves on the original Smart Slide feature of the current model. It offers greater flexibility, including the capability of the curbside seat sliding and tilting forward, even with a forward-facing child seat in place, while the driver-side section tips and slides forward for easier access to the third row.
As a contemporary crossover designed for families on the go, the 2017 Acadia offers the latest active safety features to protect them, as well as the latest technologies to keep them connected.
Built on a new, lighter body structure, the 2017 Acadia's driving dynamics are more responsive, while its shorter length and narrower width enable greater maneuverability, for easier turning in parking decks and easier parking in home garages. Acadia retains a front-drive layout with available all-wheel drive.
