One thing you missed was that the driver memory seating is only offered on the Denali trim which is a HUGE miss by GM. I can almost understand leaving it off the base model but this thing is supposed to be a family vehicle so not including that on all trims vs a heads up display (which is available on all trims) is just crazy to me.
I got my elevation trim at 38k out the door after trade in, etc. I test drove it and it drives pretty good man. The only difference of the higher trims is the price and sunroof and stuff like that. But my trim is very nice and AWD. I also got a life time warranty for a load of covered things. I say i got a pretty good deal.
maybe you can answer this question. with the super cruise , I was told you pay around $3400 for is and then after 3 years you have to pay for it monthly to use it and its features
@@johnmcmanus123 That is correct. It’s $25 per month and I believe you have to also have Onstar. I always do a three year lease and that way I get a new vehicle every three years and a new super cruise contract.
Over 320 horsepower and 320 ft lb torque for a 4-cylinder is pretty good. It will perform well at high altitudes with the twin turbochargers. Make an AT4X variant with more torque out of the engine and higher lift to 8.5 or over 9.0 to compete with the Outback Wilderness.
It is a little louder than I like when I have the pedal to the floor. During normal driving it’s fine. But the power is there! I put out AT4 in sport mode and it spin the front tires loose. Not enough to lay down rubber lol! But it was able to brake traction which is impressive for such a heavy vehicle with a 4 cylinder motor. The insulated windows and noise cancellation make a huge difference in engine noise.
I personally love it. It's louder than my current 2012 Acadia, but the 2023 Acadia was silent and I hated that. I decided to wait until the 2024 came out, test drove it and loved it. Only thing that stopped me was the pricing and just waiting to see the overall reliability of it.
I hate the sound and feel of these 4 bangers companies are putting out. They sound harsh. And reliability of the turbos is suspect too. Stick with what works. 3.5L V6's and even a light turbo for the Denali. 350 to 370 hp is ideal. For the top trim. I mean a Kia stinger had nearly 400hp.. also agreed they need a bench for 2nd row for sure. Make it a legit 8 seater for families...
yeah this 2.5 engine is a derivative of the 2.7 in the trucks so it's been getting better and better for the last couple years. should be reasonably reliable from what ive heard
I know there are critics but I really liked the 3.6 V6 and the change to the turbo 4 was a huge reason I didn’t wait to go to the new generation from my 2017. Captains chairs only in the back is a total miss. Signed - every dog who loves riding in the car! I love everything else about this refresh though!
100% spot on with the captain chairs comment. My wife loves the look of the Acadia but the lack of a rear bench seat immediately disqualifies the Acadia for us and our dogs.
Do not buy. They ALL are coming off the line with third row that can’t fold and no ETA on replacement parts. Had mine a month. Google “2024 Acadia Third Row Headrests” had mine a month, no ETA repair, can’t put my dogs in the back
Our Acadia came broken. I missed it on the inspection. 4 hours later I figured it out and dealer said they would repair. I said I’m bringing it back. He said I couldn’t because we had a deal. 5 weeks later they tell me today that they have no fix. I’m beyond frustrated! I’ve called GM. Feeling stuck and let down…
