Introducing a few changes to Big Red’s three-row crossover f0r the second model year of the new third generation, the 2025 GMC Acadia continues to offer the same eight exterior paint colors that were available on the 2024 GMC Acadia.
Each trim level of the 2025 GMC Acadia gets an exclusive extra-charge paint option, while five of the colors are shared between all three trims – Elevation, AT4, and Denali.
One paint color for the 2025 GMC Acadia, Summit White (GAZ), is offered at no-charge for all three trim levels. The other seven colors are extra-charge options, with most priced at $495, but with the tintcoat adding $625 to the vehicle’s price while the tricoat adding $1,095.
Four of the extra-charge colors are offered on all three trims and, as we mentioned above, each trim also gets an exclusive optional exterior color. The entry-level Elevation gets Crystal Metallic (color code GXK) and the range-topping Denali can be optioned in Downpour Metallic (GXP). However, Deep Bronze Metallic (GXN), the option for the rugged AT4 trim, is currently built out and unavailable.

The 2025 GMC Acadia sees a few changes over the 2024 model year, including a change to the availability of the four-way power lumbar adjustment feature for the front passenger seat. Additionally, several features were added, including the Acadia Adventure Package (assigned RPO code PCM) and eight-passenger seating for the Elevation trim, made possible by a second-row bench seat.
Under the hood, the 2025 Acadia continues to cradle the same single powerplant introduced for the 2024 Acadia – the turbocharged 2.5L I4 LK0 gasoline engine developing 328 horsepower and 326 pound-feet of torque. This engine is paired with a new GM eight-speed automatic transmission, with both front-wheel and all-wheel drive are available.
2025 Acadia pricing starts at $44,295 for the base Elevation trim level with FWD, increasing to a starting MSRP of $46,295 when configured with AWD. The AT4 – available exclusively with AWD – starts at $52,595. The Denali is priced at $55,295 for front-wheel and $57,295 for all-wheel drive. These prices include the model’s standard destination freight charge of $1,395.
Much like the 2024 model, the 2025 Acadia continues to ride on the long-wheelbase variant of the GM C1 platform with the GM Global B electrical architecture. Production takes place at the GM Lansing Delta Township plant in Michigan.
Comments
So basically there are two colors. Boring and red.
Huh? There is a purple, a brown, a blue, how are those boring? Are you looking for a big bad orange, plum crazy or lemon twist on a family CUV?
They’re basically all the same color value. Even the red is toned down. It’s the whole auto industry as a whole. American manufacturers need to go back to when we had choices. I can see my vehicle ten times a day when I’m driving.
I’d take any color, as long as it had a V6 to go with it!
