GMC American Models

Acadia

  • Trucklike looks, easy-to-use infotainment system, versatile cabin.
  • Low-rent interior materials don't live up to the price tag, puny third-row seat, not as fuel efficient as some rivals.
  • On the surface, the Acadia checks most of the boxes for a family-friendly SUV.
  • The Acadia's base engine is a turbocharged.

Canyon

  • Torque-rich diesel and strong V-6, sharper styling than the Chevy Colorado, satisfying driving traits—for a truck.
  • Underpowered and uncouth base engine, Denali interior isn't luxurious, minimal driver-assistance options.
  • The Canyon isn't the most refined or capable mid-size pickup, but it's handsome and a highly capable example of the breed.
