Next-Gen GMC Acadia 2024 Release Date, Changes, Price

Next-Gen GMC Acadia 2024 Release Date, Changes, Price – GMC has produced the 2024 Acadia with minimal changes. There is now a turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces 228 horsepower as the standard engine. The SL trim level has been retired, and so has the 2.5L inline-4 engine, which is no longer available. The 2024 Acadia is also equipped with a few driver-assist systems as standard. In addition, the new 18 and 20-inch wheel designs and the Light Stone Metallic exterior color are available as optional options. This year’s Acadia comes in SLE, SLT, AT4, and Denali trims, with a starting MSRP of $34,800.

Compared to its cousin, the Traverse, the Acadia’s running expenses are a little higher. You may have to fork up over $8,900 a year for its upkeep, gasoline, repairs, and other costs. Reliability is another area that falls short, with a J.D. Power score of just 80 out of 100. The Acadia’s miles-per-dollar ratio is projected to be 7.04 in its most efficient version, among the best in its class.

Next-Gen GMC Acadia 2024 Redesign

The 2024 GMC Acadia is the clear winner in both style and ruggedness. Stylish chrome elements and a large grille make it look like a pickup truck on the road. The LED headlights are also attractive. Despite the Acadia’s imposing exterior, it’s the smallest vehicle in its class. The Acadia’s design appears straightforward, with no extraneous body lines, from the side. This year’s alloy wheels come in 17-inch and 18-inch, with squared-off wheel arches. The vehicle’s off-road capabilities will improve if it has a greater ground clearance and a more upright posture. The dual chrome exhaust tips give the car a dynamic image from the back.

In comparison to the GMC, the competitors are larger. Because the Chevy Traverse has an enormous wheelbase in this competition, its inside is more spacious. The Toyota Highlander has the best ground clearance at 6 inches, suitable for driving on rougher roads. While the Acadia is somewhat lighter, the Explorer is more powerful.

Interior

The inside of the GMC Acadia is stylish and modern, thanks to high-tech materials and ergonomics. The vast cabin can accommodate up to seven passengers. Thanks to the optional seating layout, the captain chairs in the second row are more comfortable. While cloth upholstery is included, the quality of upholstery improves as we move up in trim. Six-footers won’t have a problem getting in and out of the front seats. Higher-end models can adjust the front seats and the steering wheel with power. The large windshield’s upright seating posture and excellent sight will not change the cabin’s characteristics. There’s enough legroom in the second row for adults, and the seats are comfortable. The option of heated rear seats is available.

The 8-inch infotainment screen is cleverly positioned in the middle of the dashboard. It comes included with both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay wireless connectivity. The touchscreen’s images are crisp, and the UI is easy to use, which was to be expected. With the physical controls supplied, you can change the settings. It’s possible to add a rear-seat entertainment system with two 8-inch displays and two wireless headphones to higher models.

Engine

Inside, the 2024 GMC Acadia sees the most significant transformation. The Acadia’s 2.5L inline-4 engine has been discontinued. As a result, the 2.0L turbo-4 engine, which produces 228 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, is now the standard engine. The SLE and SLT models come standard with this engine. 310 horsepower and 271 pound-feet of torque are standard on the AT4 and Denali models, of the 3.6-liter V6 engine are standard on all trim levels. There is a 9-speed automatic transmission attached to each of the machines. The Acadia’s agile handling and supple ride qualities make it a desirable vehicle. For a three-row crossover, superior driving dynamics ensure the optimum driving experience. The most expensive Denali model has adjustable dampers that give a more comfortable ride and a more refined driving experience.

Acadia’s primary engine is the weakest of its competitors. Due to its low output, the standard 2.0L engine lacks responsive acceleration. It takes 7.7 seconds to reach 60 mph from a complete stop, and it takes 15.6 seconds to complete a quarter-mile. Only 6.5 seconds separate the optional V6 from the base model. Despite this, the Acadia’s braking performance is adequate. From 60 MPH, the brakes take 127 feet to bring the vehicle to a stop. Considering the Explorer’s weight, the vehicle’s acceleration is quite impressive. A more powerful engine alternative is also available for purchase.

The MSRP for the base SLE trim has risen by $900, and it now starts at $34,800 for the most basic model. Except for the AT4 model, all vehicles come standard with either FWD or AWD.
