Key Features of the 2027 GMC Acadia

2.5L Turbo engine

The 2027 GMC Acadia is powered by a 2.5L Turbo engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, producing 328 hp and 326 lb.-ft. of torque. That power gives the Acadia the responsive feel many shoppers want in a three-row SUV, especially when merging onto highways, carrying passengers, or loading cargo. The Trailering Package supports up to 5,000 lbs. of max trailering, adding valuable flexibility for drivers who tow a fishing boat, compact camper, small utility trailer, or recreational gear. The Traction Select System adds another layer of confidence by allowing the driver to choose from up to six available drive modes, including Normal, Sport, Snow/Ice, Off-Road, AWD on AWD models, and Tow/Haul. AT4 models go further with AT4-exclusive Terrain Mode, an Active Torque Control AWD system, off-road tuned suspension, lifted ride height, steel skid plates, and all-terrain tires. This powertrain and capability package gives the Acadia a confident, composed character that fits both daily use and more demanding weekends.

15" diagonal Premium GMC Infotainment System

The 15" diagonal Premium GMC Infotainment System is one of the Acadia’s most important cabin highlights. Its large vertical color touchscreen is designed to keep key information, navigation, media, and vehicle settings easy to access. GMC also references Google built-in and Google Gemini integration, helping drivers stay connected to the digital tools used every day. This system makes the cabin feel modern and intuitive, reducing the need to hunt through small menus or rely on scattered controls. The Acadia also offers an 11" diagonal Driver Information Center, helping place important driving details directly in front of the driver. Depending on trim, available or standard technology may include wireless charging, OnStar®, a configurable 8" diagonal Head-Up Display, and a premium Bose sound system. Elevation and AT4 include a Bose Premium 12-speaker audio system, Denali includes a 12-speaker Bose Premium sound system with subwoofer, and Denali Ultimate upgrades to a Bose 16-Speaker Performance Series sound system.

Available Super Cruise® hands-free driver assistance technology

Available Super Cruise® hands-free driver assistance technology is a standout innovation for shoppers who spend meaningful time on compatible roads. GMC states that Super Cruise® can be used on over 600,000 miles of compatible roads, allowing hands-free driving support under proper conditions. It is standard on Denali Ultimate with a 3-year OnStar® One plan and is also featured across the Acadia technology story. For drivers who regularly travel between North Iowa communities, commute on longer routes, or simply appreciate advanced driver assistance, this available system adds a premium and forward-thinking dimension to the Acadia. Super Cruise® does not replace attentive driving, but it can help reduce fatigue and make longer drives feel more relaxed. Paired with features such as Adaptive Cruise Control, Forward Collision Alert, and Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, the Acadia offers a thoughtful approach to driver support. It is a strong example of how GMC blends traditional SUV capability with modern mobility technology.

Over 19 safety and driver assistance technologies

The 2027 GMC Acadia is built with over 19 safety and driver assistance technologies, giving shoppers confidence that safety was treated as a core priority. Enhanced Automatic Emergency Braking works with Forward Collision Alert to help avoid or reduce the severity of a collision with a detected vehicle ahead, including at highway speeds. Front Pedestrian & Bicyclist Braking can help at speeds between 5 and 50 mph if a pedestrian or bicycle is detected directly ahead, while also providing alerts and braking support. Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning can provide a brief steering wheel turn if the system detects unintended lane drift. Blind Zone Steering Assist can provide a brief, firm steering input when a potential collision is detected with a moving vehicle in the lane the driver is entering. Adaptive Cruise Control helps maintain a selected following gap behind a detected vehicle, while Forward Collision Alert can warn of a potential front-end collision or tailgating situation. These features support the driver, who must always remain attentive to traffic, surroundings, and road conditions.

97.5 cu. ft. max cargo volume

The Acadia’s interior is designed around useful space, not just impressive measurements. With three rows of versatile seating and up to 97.5 cu. ft. of max cargo volume behind the first row, the Acadia can adapt to passengers, luggage, sports equipment, home improvement supplies, and everyday family needs. GMC also lists 57.30 cu. ft. of cargo volume behind the second row and 23.00 cu. ft. behind the third row, which is helpful for shoppers comparing real-world usability. Seating capacity reaches up to 8, while Denali and AT4 configurations focus on premium seven-passenger arrangements. Denali includes third-row power-folding seats and second-row one-touch folding seats, making it easier to adjust the cabin quickly. Denali Ultimate adds heated and ventilated Woodland Mahogany full-leather massaging front seats, full-leather second-row seats, and a panoramic sunroof for an elevated atmosphere. The AutoSense Power Liftgate adds convenience by opening hands-free when the driver approaches the rear of the SUV with the key fob in a pocket or bag.
