Key Features of the 2027 GMC Acadia

2.5L Turbo Engine

The 2027 GMC Acadia is powered by a 2.5L Turbo engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, producing 328 hp and 326 lb.-ft. of torque. That output gives this mid-size SUV the kind of responsive power that feels useful in everyday driving, from merging onto I-35E to passing slower traffic on rural Texas routes. The engine is also well matched to the Acadia’s broader capability story. With the standard Trailering Package, the SUV can tow up to 5,000 lbs.* when properly equipped, which opens the door for small campers, utility trailers, personal watercraft, or gear-hauling needs. The Traction Select System lets the driver switch among available drive modes such as Normal, Sport, Snow/Ice, Off-Road, AWD on AWD models, and Tow/Haul* depending on configuration. AT4 models add an AT4-exclusive Terrain Mode, while the Active Torque Control AWD system, off-road tuned suspension, lifted ride height, steel skid plates, and all-terrain tires help give that trim a more adventurous edge. The result is a confident powertrain package that feels smooth, strong, and ready for a wide range of driving needs.

15" Diagonal Premium GMC Infotainment System*

The 15" diagonal Premium GMC Infotainment System* is one of the Acadia’s most important interior highlights because it gives the cabin a clean, modern command center. The large vertical color touchscreen is designed to place key functions within easy reach, helping the driver manage navigation, audio, vehicle settings, and connectivity without unnecessary clutter. With Google built-in* and Google Gemini* referenced in GMC content, the system is built to help occupants stay connected to maps, apps, and information on the go. The Acadia also offers an 11" diagonal Driver Information Center, giving the driver a clear digital view of important vehicle data directly ahead. Denali models add upscale technology touches such as wireless charging* and a configurable 8" diagonal Head-Up Display, which can help place useful information closer to the driver’s line of sight. From streaming music through the Bose* Premium 12-speaker audio system on Elevation and AT4 to the Bose* 16-Speaker Performance Series sound system in Denali Ultimate, the Acadia makes technology feel integrated, intuitive, and premium.

Available Super Cruise®

Available Super Cruise® hands-free driver assistance technology* is a defining innovation for the 2027 GMC Acadia. GMC states that this system allows hands-free driving on over 600,000 miles of compatible roads, helping reduce fatigue during compatible highway travel when conditions and system requirements are met. It is standard on Denali Ultimate with a 3-year OnStar® One plan* and available on select other configurations, depending on trim and package. For drivers who routinely travel between Corsicana, Waxahachie, Dallas, Hillsboro, and surrounding areas, this technology can make longer routes feel more relaxed while still requiring driver attention. Super Cruise® is part of a broader technology approach that includes available camera views, OnStar®, and driver-focused digital displays. It is not a replacement for attentive driving, but it demonstrates how GMC is bringing advanced assistance technology into a family-friendly SUV. For shoppers evaluating a 2027 GMC Acadia near Waxahachie, TX, available Super Cruise® may be one of the most compelling reasons to move the Acadia to the top of the list.

Generous Cargo Room

The Acadia’s interior is designed around real utility. With three rows of versatile seating and up to 97.5 cu. ft.* of max cargo volume behind the first row, it can adapt quickly when plans change. GMC lists 57.30 cu. ft.* of cargo volume behind the second row and 23.00 cu. ft.* behind the third row, giving shoppers useful space even when passengers are along for the ride. That balance matters for families who need room for groceries, sports bags, luggage, school projects, work materials, and everyday essentials. Denali models add third-row power-folding seats and second-row one-touch folding seats, making it easier to reconfigure the cabin without extra effort. The AutoSense Power Liftgate is another practical touch, allowing the liftgate to open hands-free when the key fob is in a pocket or bag and the driver approaches the rear of the vehicle. Whether the day calls for carrying passengers, cargo, or both, the Acadia offers the flexibility that makes a three-row SUV genuinely useful.

Over 19 Safety and Driver Assistance Technologies*

The 2027 GMC Acadia is engineered with over 19 safety and driver assistance technologies*, creating a strong foundation for everyday confidence. Enhanced Automatic Emergency Braking works with Forward Collision Alert to help avoid or reduce the severity of a collision with a detected vehicle ahead, including at highway speeds. Front Pedestrian & Bicyclist Braking can help alert the driver and provide hard emergency braking or enhanced braking support at speeds between 5 and 50 mph when a pedestrian or bicycle is detected directly ahead, although it has limited nighttime and low visibility performance. Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning can provide a brief steering wheel turn if the system detects unintentional drifting, while Blind Zone Steering Assist can provide a brief, firm steering input if a potential collision is detected with a moving vehicle in the lane being entered. Adaptive Cruise Control can automatically follow a detected vehicle ahead at a driver-selected following gap. These features support awareness, but the driver must remain attentive to traffic, surroundings, road conditions, and feature limitations.
