2019 GMC Acadia SLE-1

The 2019 Acadia is a mid-size SUV that slots between the Terrain and the Yukon, offering three rows of seating in a more manageable footprint than its predecessor. It competes with the Ford Explorer, Honda Pilot, and Toyota Highlander, though the Acadia leans more toward upscale comfort than rugged off-road ability. The Acadia drives with a composed, car-like feel that makes it easy to maneuver in town, and the available V6 provides confident passing power. Inside, the cabin offers comfortable seating for up to seven, and the rear seats fold flat to open up generous cargo space when needed. Standard tech includes a touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus available driver-assistance features like forward collision alert and lane keep assist. Standard cloth seats and a smaller touchscreen distinguish the SLE-1 from the SLE-2, but you still get the same 3.6L V6 and a seven-passenger cabin. The 3.6L V6 paired with a six-speed automatic delivers smooth power for daily driving, and all-wheel drive adds confidence in rain or light snow.
