GMC Acadia
After a mid-cycle upgrade in 2013, the Acadia returns unchanged for 2014. This large crossover is available in seven- or eight-seat configurations. All trim levels share a direct-injected 3.6L V6 (288 horsepower and 270 lbs.-ft.) and a six-speed automatic transmission with standard front-wheel drive and optional all-wheel drive. Towing capacity reaches up to 5183 lbs. Along with its Enclave and Traverse brothers, the Acadia offers a center airbag up front that is industry exclusive.
