2017 GMC Acadia SLT-1

The 2017 Acadia is GMC's mid-size three-row SUV, slotting between the Terrain and the Yukon in size and price. It competes with the Ford Explorer, Toyota Highlander, and Honda Pilot, though the Acadia leans more toward upscale comfort than rugged capability. The Acadia rides smoothly and quietly, with a composed feel that makes long trips easy, though the base engine can feel a bit strained when loaded. The cabin is roomy and flexible, with three rows of seating, captain's chairs in some trims, and a fold-flat third row for extra cargo space. Standard tech includes a touchscreen infotainment system with Bluetooth, and available features like navigation, a rear-seat DVD player, and a sunroof. Leather upholstery and the larger touchscreen set the SLT-1 apart from the SLE trims below it.
