2011 GMC Acadia Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||

2012 | 4dr SUV 288-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
The third room has enough head room to even fit an adult comfortably and is wide enough to accommodate three individuals. It is one of the few SUV's that offer 8 seat capacity and has a larger interior capacity than a Tahoe. see full GMC Acadia review |

There is plenty of space for all of the passengers and personal gear. The bucket seats add a lot of comfort. They also allow some extra room for third row passengers. Leather is the way to go, and the heated seats come in handy on those cold winter days. see full Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban review |

Rear seat leg room cramped. Aparently moved forward to make room for 3rd row seating. 2nd row seats should be adjustable front to back. see full Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban review |
