It’s what happens when you never say never. Stop by Miami GMC dealer, Brickell GMC and get more details.

This year, Acadia joins the exclusive Denali family, and the results are striking. Acadia Denali features a sleek appearance and unique exterior styling cues. Premium materials, exceptional interior acoustics, along with purposeful technology and convenience features transform its comfortable cabin into your own personal retreat.

Acadia Denali is designed with a distinctive look and feel that commands attention. Outside, a honeycomb grille, streamlined bodyside moldings with chrome accents, body-color rocker panels, dual chrome exhaust tips and 20-inch two-tone chrome-clad wheels accentuate its athletic stance.
Inside, heated and cooled front leather seating surfaces, mahogany wood steering wheel, plus interior wood tones and chrome accents emphasize luxury and refinement.

Acadia Denali features class-leading cargo capability and seating for up to eight passengers. Its second- and third-row seats can fold down to create up to 116.9 cubic feet of cargo space behind the first row, helping you to accommodate changing combinations of passengers and cargo with ease.

Interior

Acadia Denali is equipped to give you comfort and control of your driving environment. With standard features including a class-exclusive advanced Head-Up Display, Bose® premium sound system and heated and cooled front seating, it’s engineered to stand apart from other crossovers, and everything you’d expect from GMC.

To personalize your listening experience, a USB port is included on all Acadia Denali and SLT models. Simply plug in your iPod® or MP3 player to see your play lists on the audio display, make a selection and play your favorites using the audio system controls.

Seating for eight with room to Stretch
Not only does Acadia seat eight passengers, it accommodates them with generous leg room, shoulder room and head room. Its spacious interior includes flexible seating arrangements and clever storage options to create a comfortable environment for you, and up to seven of your friends.

Open floor Plan
Acadia’s interior reflects the very notion of what personal space should be— comfortable and inviting. Stadium seating, plus noticeable shoulder room in the second and third rows give passengers a sense of autonomy usually reserved for the front seat. And to keep things organized, Acadia offers multiple storage spaces, including an available second-row center console.

Acadia offers exceptional cargo capacity. It is engineered to provide you with more room behind the front row than any other vehicle in its class, and it’s equipped for comfortable, convenient access to all three rows.

Power and Performance

When it comes to performance, Acadia does not compromise, it delivers unsurpassed standard torque, more standard V-6 horsepower than any competitor in its class and better highway fuel economy than any other eight-passenger SUV.

Acadia has a 3.6L V-6 engine that delivers 288 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque, performance you’ll notice immediately during acceleration or merging onto a busy highway. Its direct-injection technology improves efficiency and reduces emissions, and at 24 mpg, gives Acadia better highway fuel economy than any other eight-passenger SUV.

It’s the transmission that makes the most out of Acadia’s V-6 engine power. It features a wide ratio spread with a very low first gear for brisk acceleration from a stop, and a very high sixth gear overdrive ratio that improves highway fuel economy. The transmission can also change gears as driving conditions change to help reduce brake wear and give you more control on downhill slopes.

With the help of OnStar, Acadia can automatically send you a monthly e-mail summary of hundreds of checks of your engine, transmission and
antilock brakes, along with important maintenance tips. Services include OnStar Vehicle Diagnostics, a powerfully simple way to know what your
vehicle’s key operating systems need. A six-month trial subscription to OnStar Directions & Connections is one of the benefits of Acadia ownership.

Safety

Acadia offers a comprehensive system of protection to give you help when you need it most. It’s engineered to assist you before a crash, with advanced chassis control technology (see page 18 for details), during a crash, when every second counts, and thanks to OnStar, after a crash, even if you can’t ask for help yourself.

To reduce the risk of injury, Acadia is equipped with six air bags: two front dual-stage air bags and two side-impact air bags for the driver and front-seat passenger, and head curtain side air bags with rollover protection for passengers in outboard seating positions. The front passenger air bag features a Passenger Sensing System. The system uses a sensor within the front passenger seat to detect the weight of an occupant. Under a certain weight, the system automatically turns off the air bag.

To help preserve occupant space during a crash, Acadia’s safety cage is engineered to absorb and channel crash energy. Crush zones at the front and rear of Acadia are designed to collapse on impact, allowing them to absorb energy and help keep the safety cage intact.

With OnStar, you get the help you need, even if you can’t ask for it. In a crash, OnStar can call for help, send your GPS location to emergency services and can even stay on the line until help arrives. For more details, stop by your Miami GMC dealer, Brickell GMC.
