Reviews SummaryRedesigned for the new model year, the 2024 GMC Acadia is a three-row crossover SUV that shares a platform with the Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave, and gets similar updates to those crossovers for 2024. The Acadia grows longer, wider, and taller, features a revamped interior, and employs a new turbocharged four-cylinder engine, among other changes. Verdict: The Acadia’s well-executed interior and tech features stand out, but its design and driving experience don’t. | |
Reviews SummaryThe Cadillac XT5 offers plenty of the luxury experience for less money and fuss than some of its competitors. Even so, this SUV lacks the driving excitement and engagement that the Europeans offer, and it can’t match the style and tech of the Korean and Japanese brands. If it were our only choice, there’d be little to complain about, but when there are so many other great options in the same segment—including the Lincoln Nautilus, BMW X3, Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class, Genesis GV70, and Porsche Macan—the Cadillac loses some of its shine. | |
