2012 GMC Acadia Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
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 |
2011 | 4dr SUV 288-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
we travel with adults not children and find the 2nd row very comfortable. see full GMC Acadia review |
