In return, all models now come standard with an adaptive suspension, a panoramic sunroof, premium audio and advanced safety features. The Premiere trim name has also been dropped.

The 2018 GMC Acadia ranked #15 in Midsize SUVs. Currently the GMC Acadia has a score of 8.0 out of 10 which is based on our evaluation of 23 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.
Pros Upscale interior Smooth ride User-friendly infotainment system
Cons Cramped third row Less cargo space than some rivals
A V-6 engine is optional and provides decent hustle, while the standard four-cylinder engine is the choice for buyers mindful of fuel economy.Handsome styling, a well-connected infotainment system, and room for up to seven passengers make the Acadia an easy family favorite.
Pros Seating for seven, handsome styling, a high-tech cabin.
Cons Uneven interior build quality, disappointing fuel economy, a tight third row and cargo hold.
The 3.6-liter V6 is now available on SLE-1 AWD models. Last year's All Terrain package deleted the third-row seat, but it can now be ordered with the third row intact.
PROS Refined ride quality makes it comfortable in any kind of driving situation Quick acceleration from the optional V6 engine Simple cabin layout means everything is usable at a glance Modern onboard technology keeps you connected
CONS Not many places to store small items Some rival crossovers have more cargo and third-row space Cabin isn't particularly luxurious, even in the priciest trim levels
