2021 GMC Acadia Review: Not Perfect, But Pragmatic

Semi-premium offerings are always hit or miss; blending the dichotomous values of luxury and affordability is a difficult balance to achieve, and while the 2021 GMC Acadia has its strong points, we can't say that it's a compelling option within the immensely popular midsize crossover SUV classification. Nevertheless, with its audacious design, five trims, and selection of three very different engines, the 5-door Acadia SUV does offer a good amount of choice and value at a reasonable price. The turbocharged four-pot unit offers good pep and fuel-efficiency, too, while the more potent V6 delivers robust acceleration and accords the SUV with a decent 4,000-pound towing capacity. With more contemporary and value-rich cars such as the Kia SorentoVolvo XC90, and the Mazda CX-9 also in the segment, there remains a lot to be desired from the Acadia.

2021 GMC Acadia Changes: What’s the difference vs 2020 GMC Acadia?

The SLE and SLT get access to the new Elevation Edition, which adds 20-inch wheels and all-season tires, along with blacked-out exterior accents.
