What's New for 2025?
The Acadia is essentially unchanged after last year's full redesign.
FAST FACTS
"The Acadia's recent redesign burnished its credentials as a fully competitive three-row crossover. Interior space remains well above average, while the interior gets an impressive array of tech that includes a vertical portrait-style touchscreen. The turbo four-cylinder engine doesn't feel as strong as its 328-horsepower output would indicate, though, and its refinement leaves something to be desired, too."—Ranked #7 out of 15 Midsize 3-Row SUVs
MotorDonkey's proprietary vehicle data identifies every significant version of each model so that you can compare and decide. Ordered by price from low to high, here are the versions of the 2025 GMC Acadia that you need to be aware of, along with our expert analysis and recommendations.
Redesigned for 2024, the 2025 Acadia provides a different look if you don't like the new Chevy Traverse, but underneath they are pretty much the same vehicle, right down to the relatively unrefined 2.5T engine's horsepower and torque figures.
We always recommend looking at what you lose when you add AWD. In the Terrain's case, the answer is $2k and 2 mpg combined, the latter being a more significant consideration in our view. We'd rather have the extra fuel economy — and range — and let the stability control system sort out any slippage. Today's systems are really good at that. Keeping $2k in your pocket is cool too.
