The 2025 GMC Acadia represents the third-generation crossover’s second model year, bringing with it a few relatively small updates. Notable changes include the addition of a new eight-passenger seating configuration, as well as a few new aesthetic options. Notably, the 2025 GMC Acadia just got a small bump in pricing across all trim levels.
The GMC Acadia lineup now starts at $44,395 for the entry-level Elevation trim with front-wheel drive (FWD), while opting for all-wheel drive (AWD) increases the starting price to $46,395. The off-road-focused AT4, which is available exclusively with AWD, carries a starting price of $52,795. At the top of the lineup, the Denali trim starts at $55,495 for FWD configurations and $57,495 for AWD configurations.
Each pricing figure listed here includes $1,395 for the destination freight charge.
Compared to pricing at the launch of the 2025 model year, the Elevation trim is now $100 more expensive, while AT4 and Denali trims have each increased by $200.
| Trim Level | Drivetrain | Powertrain | 2025 MSRP + DFC |
|---|---|---|---|
| Elevation | FWD | Turbo 2.5L I4 LK0 | $44,395 |
| Elevation | AWD | Turbo 2.5L I4 LK0 | $46,395 |
| AT4 | AWD | Turbo 2.5L I4 LK0 | $52,795 |
| Denali | FWD | Turbo 2.5L I4 LK0 | $55,495 |

The 2025 GMC Acadia offers the same eight exterior paint color options as the 2024 model year. However, buyers will now have access to a few new interior colorways, with the Elevation trim offering four different choices, the AT4 featuring a single interior colorway, and the Denali trim offering two colorways. Interior materials include cloth, CoreTec (a synthetic leatherette material used across GM brands), and perforated leather upholstery.
Another key update is the addition of a new second-row bench seat for the Elevation trim. This update increases seating capacity from seven to eight passengers, while the second-row captain’s chairs are now part of the $2,535 Elevation Premium Package (RPO GHI), while remaning standard on AT4 and Denali variants. Meanwhile, the third row includes a 60/40 split-bench configuration. Notably, this marks the first time that GMC has offered an eight-passenger Acadia since the first-generation model (2007 through 2017 model years).
As for the mechanical specs, the 2025 GMC Acadia is once again powered by the turbocharged 2.5L I4 LK0 gasoline engine, which is rated at 328 horsepower and 326 pound-feet of torque. Under the skin, the crossover rides on the GM C1 platform, with production taking place at the GM Lansing Delta Township plant in Michigan.

Don’t worry. They’ll need to quadruple incentives very soon.
It looks like a lot of people will have thier cars reposested even if a small recession hits. I just don’t know how mid class people are going to afford 50,60 thousand dollar cars. I’ts just crazy how car companies keep increasing prices.
A C8 corvette was introduced at $59.995 in 2020. Today it is $10.000 more.
I’ve said this elsewhere, but the pricing for the corvette has remained relatively stable when you account for inflation. As you can see below, the corvette has been about the same in terms of cost to the customer since the C3 generation ended in 1982, over 40 years ago.
Year / Base Price / Adj. for inflation
2025 / $69,995 / $69,995
2020 / $59,995 / $73,879
2015 / $53,995 / $73,394
2006 / $44,490 / $71,272
2001 / $40,475 / $73,431
1990 / $32,479 / $80,986
1980 / $13,000 / $53,081
1970 / $5,192 / $43,634
1962 / $4,038 / $42,759
Can’t say I’m shocked…Is there anything who’s price has gone down lately?
For 2026 traverse and Arcadia model will there be a v6 engine as option?
Also improve your insulation under the hood and other areas, so you don’t hear the 4 cylinder failing apart when you get into it!
Make an improvement for the prices your asking for these vehicle’s now!
