While you may think of work trucks and SUVs equipped to mention hefty GMC, the brand has a lot of appeal in a healthy family, too. And at the heart of which is the Acadia, a vehicle that simply put, provide families with an alternative, somewhat chunkier more masculine for a minivan.
The GMC Acadia has been on the market for five years and it has not changed much. Among the closely related Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave, Acadia has aged the best, with his appearance that echoed easier GMC truck, but for 2013, GM has been given a facelift light that gives this vehicle looks a bit more chiseled and upscale.
The most obvious change to the new Acadia happening outside. At the front, there is a three-grating new bar, brave and upright. LED daytime running lights, new rear light design, the rear glass cover and a new rear spoiler adds exterior changes. Upgraded soft-touch materials, French stitching, and red ambient lighting up the interior, while the SLT and Denali models receive aluminum accents on the doors, dash and center console.
Unlike traditional GMC trucks and SUVs, GMC Acadia 2013 does not leave much room for choice of powertrain. With a standard 288-horsepower V-6 and either front-wheel drive or all-wheel-drive, the Acadia is strong enough for the task most families. Ride quality is balanced, too, with dual-flow shock absorbers for 2013 more help tradeoff ride-versus-handling.
The Acadia makes good use of the potential space beneath a rather square profile, with the seating comfort is excellent and the cabins, strict quiet - although the floor sits a bit higher than in some other crossover vehicles. A third-row seat is included in all Acadia models, and whether you go for a captain or a bench seat in the back you get the adult-sized accommodations (they are also heated and cooled in Denali), and they slide forward and back for more room in the third row. And with the third row up, Acadia has 24 cubic feet of space for cargo, fold down the second and third seat row, and it was revealed 116 cubic feet of space.
GMC has also improved interior materials throughout the lineup, including the 2013 Acadia more soft-touch materials, French stitching, and red ambient lighting. SLT and Denali models also get aluminum accents, with additional satin-chrome accents, perforated leather and mahogany inserts on Denali. The Denali also gets even quieter interior with exclusive acoustic package.
Side Blind Zone Alert and Rear Cross Traffic has been added to the list of features for 2013 Denali. And that's on top of an already strong list of standard features like anti-lock brakes, traction and stability control, front seat side airbags, and curtain bags that reach to the third-row seat. Crash-test The Acadia has ranked it very well, too.
2013 Acadia is offered in SLE, SLT and Denali versions - although SLE2 and SLT2 trim adds more features to each.The Acadia Denali is a luxury model in all respects except for the badge, so the price may be an issue for some buyers.
Infotainment has been enhanced for the entire model line this year. New standard Color Touch Radio with touch screen controls (surrounded by some models of capacitive controls for audio and climate control), and navigation available with the system. Also optional is IntelliLink, which adds Pandora and Stitcher Internet radio capability plus a hands-free voice control. Auxiliary and USB input are provided, and the system including SiriusXM satellite radio tuner plus HD Radio compatibility, image viewer, and a built-in camera rear vision.
