2026 GMC Acadia Mid-Size SUV
The 2026 GMC Acadia mid-size SUV is built to help you make the most of every moment — whether you're navigating daily commutes or heading out on weekend adventures. With three rows of versatile seating, a powerful turbocharged engine, and a long list of standard safety technologies, the Acadia delivers a well-rounded driving experience that's hard to beat in its class.
Performance
The 2026 GMC Acadia is powered by a 2.5-liter turbo engine producing 328 horsepower and 326 pound-feet of torque, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. That combination delivers confident, responsive acceleration whether you're merging onto the highway or hauling the whole family across town.
The Acadia is also trailering-capable, offering a maximum towing capacity of 5,000 pounds with the available Trailering Package. For drivers who need added traction in rain, snow, or uneven terrain, available all-wheel drive provides added confidence. The Traction Select System lets you choose from up to six available drive modes to tailor your ride to changing conditions, while the AT4 trim adds an off-road-tuned suspension and AT4-exclusive Terrain Mode for more demanding adventures.
Interior
Step inside the 2026 Acadia and you'll find a cabin designed with comfort and practicality in mind. Seating for up to eight passengers spans three rows, and the interior offers a maximum cargo volume of 97.5 cubic feet behind the first row with the second- and third-row seats folded. With 23.0 cubic feet of cargo space behind the third row when all seats are up, there's plenty of room for everyday essentials.
The Elevation trim features After Dark cloth seating, while the AT4 steps things up with a distinctive Forest Storm interior and Mahogany accents. The Denali trim elevates comfort further with leather-appointed first- and second-row seats, heated and ventilated front seats, and power-folding third-row seats. At the top of the lineup, the Denali Ultimate features full-leather massaging front seats with Woodland Mahogany finish and plaited contrast stitching. Across all trims, standard amenities include heated driver and front passenger seats, a heated steering wheel, and heated power outside mirrors.
Technology
The 2026 GMC Acadia brings a full suite of connected technology to elevate your drive. The 15-inch diagonal Premium GMC Infotainment System features a color touchscreen with Google built-in compatibility and voice-activated technology for your phone, making it easy to customize your entertainment experience. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility keep your smartphone seamlessly integrated, while six USB ports — including USB Type-A and USB Type-C — are distributed throughout all three rows to keep everyone powered up.
The 11-inch diagonal Driver Information Center comes standard on every trim, giving you quick access to vehicle, driving, and infotainment data at a glance. An available 8-inch diagonal configurable Head-Up Display projects critical driving information directly onto the windshield, so you can keep your eyes on the road. Perhaps the most exciting technology available on the Acadia is Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance technology, which enables hands-free driving on a growing network of compatible roads — standard on the Denali Ultimate and available on the Elevation, AT4, and Denali trims.
Safety
Drivers in Aberdeen, SD, can feel confident knowing the 2026 GMC Acadia comes loaded with over 19 standard safety and driver assistance features. Every trim includes Enhanced Automatic Emergency Braking, Blind Zone Steering Assist, Forward Collision Alert, HD Surround Vision, Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Braking, Adaptive Cruise Control, Reverse Automatic Braking, Rear Camera Mirror, and many more.
Nine camera views — including HD Surround Vision — make tight parking maneuvers and low-speed maneuvering much more manageable. Teen Driver and Buckle to Drive features add another layer of peace of mind for families, helping encourage safe habits behind the wheel.
