Athletic design
With a powerful front-end design, which hints at the GM 3.6L V-6 VVT engine underneath, the Acadia features athletic styling with a raked "GMC" grille and dual halogen projector headlamps. The design is highlighted by a rear spoiler, polished aluminum roof rails, dual exhaust with chrome tips and additional select bright work.
The profile of the Acadia is sleek and aerodynamic, with a sporty, tapered roof line. Distinctive LED taillamps and a rear spoiler enhance the vehicle's sporty appearance, as do large 18-inch wheels and tires (19-inch wheels are available).
