GMC Acadia History

Did you know the GMC Acadia has been around since 2006? Even from the beginning, it has been poised as a capable and standout vehicle on the market, with plenty of cargo and seating capability to deliver on driver needs.

It actually replaced several similar vehicles in the lineup of Pontiac, Buick, and GMC models, and has continued to grow in popularity over the years.

While the GMC Acadia first entered the market as the most capable and powerful vehicle for towing and hauling, it was eventually moved toward the middle of the marque around 2017.

In order to keep up with the increasing popularity of mid-size SUV models and crossovers, it was made sportier and smaller and featured more custom comfort and entertainment options.

GMC Acadia Model Years to Avoid

While the GMC Acadia has been sold around the world, even under the Holden name in Australia and New Zealand, some models are better than others.

If you’re on the search for a pre-owned GMC Acadia, you’ll want to avoid the first complete model year, 2007-2008, second-gen models for 2012 and 2013, and third-gen models, for 2017 and 2018.

Today, the GMC Acadia starts at just $34,800 MSRP and was called, “refined, quick, [and] modern,” by the experts at Edmunds.
