2022 GMC Acadia Exterior and Dimensions

Thanks to its 2020 facelift, the Acadia is still a handsome and modern-looking crossover. It sports the traditional blocky GMC grille, bordered by LED headlights and C-shaped signature lighting. The upper trims step it up a notch with LED fog lights in the lower bumper. In its adventure-focused AT4 guise, the Acadia rides on 17-inch alloys with all-terrain tires, but the SLE and SLT have 18-inch items, and the top-tier Denali boasts bold 20-inch Ultra Bright machined alloys. A hands-free power liftgate is installed from the SLT upwards as standard. If the SLE and SLT are a little too tame for you, several appearance packages are available, which helps them to compete with the more aggressive black-accented AT4, which tries to create images of a more rugged off-road vehicle than the Acadia actually is.

The Acadia isn't the largest SUV offered by GMC, but it's far from small. All of its dimensions are shared across the range, starting with the 112.5-inch wheelbase. Overall length measures in at 193.4 inches, while width without the mirrors is set at 75.4 inches. As with most high-riders, the Acadia stands quite tall at 66.7 inches, though its ground clearance of 7.2 inches isn't really conducive to venturing off-road. With several engine and drivetrain combinations available, weight varies from 4,155 pounds for the base FWD versions to 4,525 lbs for the Denali AWD.

The Acadia has lost a color hue from its palette for 2022, but there is a new option, too. The standard no-cost color for the range is Summit White. SLE adds a few extra-cost options. For $495, you can opt for one of the four metallics, namely Satin Steel, Ebony Twilight, Midnight Blue or, new for this year, Light Stone. Cayenne Red Tintcoat will cost you $645. If you like White Frost Tricoat, you'll need to upgrade to at least the SLT or AT4 then pay an extra $1,095, while the Denali gets exclusive access to Hunter Metallic for $495. This year, Red Mahogany is no longer offered.
