A Cut Above: All-New 2024 GMC Acadia is Bigger, Bolder, More Advanced and More Luxurious Than Ever (2024)

DETROIT – GMC today revealed the all-new Acadia at the Detroit Motor show, redefining what a premium mid-size SUV can be and launching a new era for the brand’s family of SUVs and crossovers.

The 2024 Acadia is longer, wider and taller than its predecessor, with an all-new premium-appointed interior, elevated exterior design language, an enhanced suite of technology and an extensive list of standard safety features.

“With over nine decades of bringing the best we have to the Middle East, GMC has earned an incredible fondness for any vehicle wearing the GMC badge and its position as a leader in offering premium capabilities, luxurious design and class-leading technologies.” said Suzie Guzzo, Chief Marketing Officer, General Motors Africa and Middle East. “With a renewed sophisticated interior and exterior design paralleled with technological and power enhancements, the 2024 Acadia delivers on the standards the previous generations are loved for and adds more. In short, it is an intelligent crossover that elevates the driving and passenger experiences on all fronts catering to a wider range of preferences and needs.”

More spacious and more powerful

The 2024 Acadia is larger in all dimensions compared to the previous model. It sits on a 20 centimeter longer wheelbase and more than 10 centimeters taller, enabling enhanced passenger spaciousness, and an expanded seating configuration of seven or eight passengers, depending on the trim.

The Acadia’s larger size also means more storage space and versatility — including nearly 80 percent more cargo space behind the third row and over 36 percent more behind the second row compared to the current generation.

“For this next generation, our mission was to reimagine the design and the proportions of the Acadia to create a bolder, more commanding presence, firmly in the vein of the evolving GMC portfolio.” said Ben Zavala, GMC Acadia design lead. “With its assertive, powerful stance, the 2024 Acadia invokes a truck-inspired persona, infused with the brand’s signature premium feel.”

All trims of the Acadia are powered by an advanced new 2.5L turbocharged engine that more power and capability than the previous generation. Producing 315 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque, the new engine is paired with an eight-speed automatic on all trims with available all-wheel drive, including an exclusive off-road-capable Active Torque Control AWD system on the redesigned Acadia AT4.

The powertrain helps maintain Acadia’s strong trailering capability. When properly equipped, it has a max trailering rating of 5,000 pounds³.

Advanced, purposeful and innovative technology

In addition to its bold and sophisticated new exterior, the 2024 Acadia features an all-new interior with next-level technology integration and premium appointments.
