2017 GMC Acadia: At the 2016 North American International Auto Show

DETROIT - #gmc today introduced the all-new 2017 #acadia – a reimagined crossover aimed at the heart of the midsize segment, designed to offer great versatility and refinement, with more advanced safety technologies. The new #acadia offers more-efficient powertrains, while continuing to offer three rows of seating on most models. The premium #acadia Denali returns, along with a new All Terrain model offering enhanced off-road capability. “GMC is a strong, growing premium brand and the #acadia is a cornerstone of our success story,” said Duncan Aldred, vice president of #gmc Sales and Marketing. “The all-new #acadia leverages GMC’s proven #suv experience to take on and shake up one of the largest vehicle segments, with a strong blend of design, technology and capability.” The new #acadia goes on sale this spring, almost a decade after its original introduction, and coming off of its strongest sales year ever in 2015 with 96,393 deliveries. “Typically, a vehicle’s sales can be illustrated on a bell curve during its lifecycle, but the Acadia’s success has defied convention with impressive sustainability,” said Aldred. “It’s a shining example of GMC’s momentum and we’re confident it will grow with the new #acadia.” New size, bigger advantages The strategic re-scoping of the 2017 #acadia offers customers a midsize crossover positioned between the compact Terrain and full-size Yukon. Depending on the model, it is available with five-, six- or seven-passenger seating, while offering greater maneuverability than the first-generation model. “The new #acadia captures a greater feeling of refinement, in everything from the responsive feeling behind the wheel to the way passengers interact with its intuitive features,” said Rick Spina, executive chief engineer for compact and crossover SUVs at General Motors. “It’s a vehicle that offers the functionality #acadia is known for, while delivering big advantages and balance to customers’ everyday lives.”
