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 it gets similar updates to that crossover for 2024. Among other changes, the Acadia grows longer, wider, and taller, features a revamped interior, and employs a new turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Verdict: The Acadia’s well-executed interior and tech features stand out, but its design and driving experience don’t. | |
Reviews Summary“Terrain” is a misnomer as applied to this compact crossover SUV from GMC. The name suggests far more off-roading capability than is available from this restyled Chevy Equinox, and the new AT4 trim level, which equips the 2022 GMC Terrain with standard all-wheel drive (AWD), “sport-terrain” tires, and a steel front skid plate, ought to come with a disclaimer. Based on our testing, the new 2022 Terrain AT4 is all show and no go, as in: “No, you can’t go there in this small SUV.” Not without damaging it, anyway. | |
