2026 GMC Acadia

2026 GMC
Acadia

GMC has made a few changes for its popular midsized three-row crossover for model year 2026. This time around, the Acadia turns the formerly available Denali Reserve Package into an entirely new trim level – and a loaded one at that. The Denali Ultimate, as it’s been named, includes a panoramic sunroof, a 16-speaker Bose sound system, a performance suspension, 22-inch wheels, Super Cruise hands-free driving technology, massaging seats, and a Woodland Mahogany interior. Other changes for this year include a digital rearview mirror, ambient interior lighting, and a key card entry system for the entire lineup. Glacier White Tricoat and Riverstone Metallic replace White Frost Tricoat and Deep Bronze Metallic in the 2026 paint palette.
