Standard equipment on the base model SL includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The brand will continue to offer front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive variants in SL, SLE, SLT, All-Terrain, and Denali trims. A new 2.5L four-cylinder engine is standard and includes stop/stop technology. An optional 310-horsepower V6 is available for those owners who want more power or will use their Acadia to tow. GMC expects a V6 FWD Acadia to get nearly 25 MPG on the highway and a FWD 2.5L Acadia to achieve 22MPG in the city. Full fuel economy numbers were not released.

Zane Merva Executive Editor, GM-Trucks.com 2/16/2016 GMC recently took the wraps off the completely new, 700-lbs lighter, and more fuel efficient midsize Acadia.

Here is a quick breakdown of the present year to date sales of each in the U.S: Yukon XL Down 42% Yukon Down 14% Escalade Down 32% YTD Escalade ESV Down 11% Tahoe - Down 23% Suburban - Down 17% We were left scratching our heads. Yes, we all know that GM sells products outside the U.S., but we also know that Europeans turn their noses up at these vehicles which are about 1.5 times the width of their back-roads and that the Chinese pronounce the word car "Byu-Wick". Rather than speculate, we reached out to General Motors. Jennifer Ecclestone, handles communications for the Western U.S. and Arlington Plant and she replied to our inquiry in under an hour. The simple answer is that sales in Canada, Mexico, and the Middle East are responsible for all that overtime the good folks at UAW Local 276 busy nights and weekends. It is nice to see an American company building an expensive, high-quality product for export to other countries. -
The Dallas News reports that the Arlington plant's 4,100 workers can produce up to 1,200 SUVs like the Chevy Tahoe, Cadillac Escalade, and GMC Yukon every day. Over the past few years GM has added workers and poured money in to the factory. It is currently undergoing a $1.4 billion upgrade. The Arlington plant has been in operation for 61 years.
