Standard safety features include eight airbags, anti-lock brakes, and the StabiliTrak electronic stability control system with traction control and roll-over reduction technology. The interior has two different seating configurations for the second-row seats, with a maximum capacity of seven passengers. 

Acadia can be equipped with amenities such as Tri-zone automatic climate control, Bose audio system, a back-view camera with back park support, Bluetooth, remote start, leather seat, heated and cooled seats, Telecontrol Universal Home and a dual SkyScape two-panel sliding roof. The GMC ACADIA is mostly unchanged for 2019, adding some new exterior colors. 

Redesigned as model 2017, the GMC ACADIA is a medium-sized crossover SUV available in five-, six-, or seven-passenger configurations. Front-wheel drive is standard, all-wheel drive is optional. 

This second-generation Acadia replaced a much larger gate with the same name. The current model is about six inches shorter and three inches narrower than the 2007-2016 Acadia. The current Acadia is 700 pounds lighter than the first-generation model and gets a much better fuel economy. It also costs less. 

Only minor changes have been made for 2018: The seating configurations for the All Terrain package have been extended. The Denali Superior Edition wins a heated steering wheel. A buzzer warning is standard on the 2018 Acadia models.

GMC offers seven levels of trim: SL, SLE, SLT and Denali high-end. The SLE and SLT versions are divided into two versions each:-1 and-2, with different contents and prices. ALL-Terrain package is available for SLE and SLT models. Denali is distinguished by its stunning grille and other ornaments.

The standard engine is a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 193 horsepower and 188 lb-ft of torque. Available in all but the base SL and the step-up SLE is a 3.6 liter V6 developing 310 horsepower and 271 lb-ft.

Both motors are paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard, with optional all-wheel drive at all except SL setting. 

The four-cylinder engine feels filtered with a full load of passengers and equipment, but the V6 is strong and silent. 

Traction on all wheels points more to snow-covered roads than the four-wheel drive, even when using the off-road mode that is part of the all-terrain option. 

Eight airbags and rearview cameras are standard. Advanced security technology is available, if expensive, but only for top models. Such features as automatic emergency braking and active lane control are standard only in the SLT-2 and Denali editions. Lane change alert, blind spot monitoring, and rear cross-transit alert are available for SLE-2 and standard on SLT-1 models. 

A standard rear-seat detection system warns you, before driving, if you have opened the back door. It is intended to remind drivers that a child or pet could be in the back seat. 

Acadia scored well in crash tests. The National Highway Road Safety Administration gave the 2018 Acadia five-star overall, and for frontal and secondary impacts. Only for rollover protection did Acadia get a four-star rating, which is typical of the higher vehicles. The Institute of Insurance for Road safety scored the 2017 Acadia Good in each category tested, apart from the lighthouses, which were declared poor. Only the high-intensity-discharge headings of Denali were considered marginal. With an appropriate group of options, the Acadia ranked superior for frontal shock prevention.

To a large extent comfortable, the Acadia hut is clean and nice enough, if a bit bland. Although the quality is evident and the soft-touch materials abound, the symmetrical design seems a little beyond its apogee. 

The standard seat for seven includes a three-place bench in row two, plus two in the third row. Most clipping levels can get optional captain twin chairs, reducing the seat to six. 

Surprisingly narrow, the Acadia hut may feel a bit cramped when crowded with passengers. Front occupants can expect good views while residing in comfortable seating. Row two is easy to access. The outboard seats are spacious, but the central position remains short in comfort. The young are the best prospects for riding in the third row, which can be folded flat. 

With the third row in a vertical position, the load volume amounts to a modest 12.8 cubic feet. The maximum capacity is 79 cubic feet.

The Acadia conducts well and feels pleasantly polished, with a comfortable ride, compound, and sensible handling.  The direction is well-weighted. The V6 models feel a trifle of heavy nose, but the handling does not suffer. 

The independent four-wheel suspension easily absorbs uneven pavement. Optional 20-inch SLT wheels (standard in Denali) can produce a stiffer ride.  The performance is modest with the four-cylinder engine. The strong V6 is an attractive choice, mating well with the 6-speed automatic GMC. 

All Terrain models look sturdy, but driving comfort coincides with the regular Acadia. Outside the pavement, it benefits from a slightly revised traction control mode.

An Acadia is not the most efficient crossover of fuel in its class. The four-cylinder models with the front drive are Thrifmás, EPA-rated at 21/26 mpg city/highway, or 23 mpg combined. The addition of traction on all wheels decreases the estimation slightly, up to 21/25/23 MPG. 

The V6 guzzles a little more, EPA-rated at 18/25 mpg city/highway, or 21 mpg combined. All-wheel drive is rated at 17/25/20 MPG. None of the engines require premium gasoline. Four-cylinder Acadia includes a Stop/Start system.
